I am so excited for this. Mushishi was one of my absolute favorite 00's animes and I couldn't be happier that they're actually making more of it after an 8-year hiatus.ViggyNash posted:It's all there, the music, the atmosphere, the art, everything. If they've done so well on the first episode, I can't imagine that they will do much worse with the rest of the season. Have you seen the OVA episode that came out a few months ago? It's basically a two-parter in one, and totally blew away any worries I had about the series restart.

I don't really have a problem with everything surrounding the mushi boiling down to "a wizard did it," since they're supposed to be supernatural creatures that only partially exist within the realm of human understanding and are portrayed as just trying to survive like other living things. The drama of the series comes from how people react to mushi encounters and the long-term effects of those encounters.

Omnicrom posted:I started to keep track of all the ridiculously genius shots this episode and I got up to around eleven. Then I realized my list was more or less just every important scene in the episode. Still gotta give it up to the first scene where the older brother pats the younger brother on the head, the sheer amount of reflexive terror that they can instill with such an ordinary and pedestrian shot thanks to the right combination of lighting, shading, and angle is gobsmacking. The deliberate contrast with the second scene at the end of the episode was similarly striking. The return of the close-up shot of someone stepping on some leaves was nice, too. Don't ask me why I still so vividly remember similar shots from the first season, but I do.

That was a dang good episode, maybe one of my all-time favorites in the series. Lots of mystery, some hints of bigger things, and it was a pretty dark episode all around, more so than usual. October definitely can't come soon enough.

ViggyNash posted:... Am I missing something here? I swear that 2 episode special (Path of Thorns) came out in the summer, because I remember watching it a while ago on Crunchyroll.

In the first episode of the first season, Ginko uses the smoke from his cigarette to momentarily entangle the mushi spirit-girl.

unpronounceable posted:Man, this episode was heavy. I can't imagine what it's going to be like for the man. He finally turns away from the tunnel, but is he now going to have to relive his wife dying, only to "save her" with the mushi? I felt like the way it shifted perspective at the end to Kaoru's wife suggested to me that he was no longer a conscious part of the loop. Which is bad, because she never had any direct interaction with Ginko, it was always her husband. In trying to save her life, Kaoru doomed her to repeat her entire life over and over again until finally merging with the mushi [whatever that entails].

cyberbug posted:I got the impression that the boy 'left' despite Ginko's treatment plan, not because of it, and that in the end it turned out to be inevitable. I thought the opposite at first, but then I realized that this is correct. The boy was either going to jump in the river at some point or evaporate following a severe flood, Ginko's treatment didn't make things any worse but instead just gave the boy a chance to live a normal life for a little while.

Mushishi movie coming next year:http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-12-20/mushishi-the-next-chapter-gets-film-in-early-summer/.82433 posted:The Mushishi: The Next Chapter anime's television broadcast ended on Sunday with an announcement that the Mushishi: The Next Chapter's Suzu no Shizuku arc will play in theaters early in Summer 2015. The film will be a special compilation of "Suzu no Shizuku," which was the last two-chapter arc in the main manga series. Not really much to say, more Mushishi is always a really good thing, though I am very interested to see what they do with a longer format and a bigger budget.
