Kannagi – Episode 1

Ah~ My first anime review post!

I didn’t write it in my previous post, but after watching the show, I decided to blog it too.

The summery isn’t very good, but I’ll try my best to improve!

On to the show!

Summery:

The show started with how Jin and Nagi, the Land Deity met. Jin was at a shrine, in front of the sacred tree that was the vessel for the deity, catching a spider, which I guess is an impurity. Nagi appear behind Jin’s back, later touching his head before disappearing with the spider.

Some years later, when the sacred tree was cut down and Jin got some wood from the sacred tree from his friend. Using the wood, he crafted out a wooden statue of the girl (Nagi) that he met before.  Later, Nagi materialised from the vessal. 

She was curious about why she could inside the vessal so comfortably when Jin told her that it might be because the wood was made from the sacred tree.

When Nagi realised that her precious tree had been cut down, she was horified and ran to the shrine. Att he shrine, she broke down and cried because without the tree, the land will be infeasted with impurities.

To prove her point, an impurity in the form of an centipide climbed up Nagi’s leg, hurting her and causing a red bruise on her thight. Seeing Jin’s expression, she said that he is most prbably not even able to touch the impurities.  Jin ignore and just took off spider on her leg and fling it away, causing it to die immediately.

And to cut a long story short…

Realising that Jin can hep to get rid of the impurites with her, because he has a strong sense for the spernatural, Nagi stayed with Jin at his house. Also partly because she has no where else to stay.

Screencaps:

Thoughts:

The OP is really catchy and energetic. I keep replaying the song over and over in my head, and really like the dance, i think it’s well animated.

The plot is really interesting too, but I hope it doesn’t get to repetive since it looks like it going to be about getting rid of the impurites. One of my favourite moments is when Jin get’s kicked. Haha.

The ED is a little ‘meh’ to me. Thus the small amount of screencaps on it.
