    Karas



    Plot Summary: The old Karas is dead, killed by an evil ex-Karas who now named himself Ekou. He started a series of murders against the Human race by making his loyal Youkai (Demons) drain the body fluids from humans. The new Karas is chosed to be Otoha, a young man who has just woken from a coma. So, him and his trainer Yurine, start the fight against the evil forces of darkness that are triyng to conquer the city of Shinjuku . Nue, a renagade Youkai, is also fighting with Ekou and his evil creatures. The humans are caught in the middle of the battle between the two Karas, with the police and the detective Go Narumi, encharged with the case completely helpless against the demons that threaten to bring the end of the world.

    Seriously, who types the plot summaries for ANN? It's a travesty honestly. The above PS is one edited by me so it's more readible. Anyway, the animation in this show is absolutely AMAZING. Literally, the first ten minutes of the OAV will have your jaw dropping in awe. I have never seen this much production quality go into an OAV in my entire life. T

    The dubbing is well done and the ending of the OAV WILL leave you wanting for more. My only gripe is that the story is somewhat convoluted and will require repeat views to get the gist of it. I highly recommend this OAV.

    I thought it was amazing. I agree with what you said on the opening OAV, However I felt that some parts were abit OTT. I didnt find the story that hard to follow. I got a little comic explaining parts I didnt understand, for instance, the girl with a shattered soul.

      I read the comic as well but the OAV is just as good stand alone. While some parts of Karas may be OTT, it's nothing less from what you'll find in say FFVII:AC.

        Yea, AC is really over the top, For some reason though I could sorta forgive that, I did spend much of the film with the thought "there level 99" in the back of my head.

            HAHAHAHA. When I watched it everybody in the room had playied 7 and three or four were the "I want Sephiroth's babys" types. When the song "One Winged Angel" playied they almost cryied with happyness. All the way through the film I had to tell people to shut up becuase they were naming moves and limit breaks and that. It wouldn't of been so bad if it was just the one guy, but it was like three or four going "Omni slash", "ITS A GUN BLADE" and so on.

              Oh hey, I got an email once from the publisher or something saying they would mail me a free copy of this thing if I put an ad for it up on my site. I wanted to do it for the heck of it, but sadly I haven't had access to my site for a while and I was too lazy to change that.

                I watched the first three segments quite a few months ago and have been checking every now and then in hopes of finding the last three. The ending of the third segment made me angry because I didn't have the last three to watch.
