I watched it with only a vague recollection of the handsome road movie battle anime I saw a long time ago.

Speaking of which, I remembered that this anime was full of depressing stories no matter where you cut it.

And this time was extraordinary.

Even when we win, we don’t win very clearly, do we?

In this world, youkai have started to attack people due to the effects of the world’s disturbances.

The party of Sanzang encountered a yokai named Yaun, an old man who had not been affected by the strange occurrences and remained savage, while they were stranded in the snowy mountains.

Yayun similarly protected the children of youkai who were not affected by the strange happenings and lived hidden in the mountains.

The people at the foot of the mountain couldn’t rid themselves of their fear of youkai and came to shoot and kill the youkai, including Yagumo.

Seeing this, Sanzō threatened, “If you kill a child who lives in fear, then you are neither monsters nor humans,” and drove the humans away.

Having happily regained peace, I continued my stay in a secluded hideaway in the mountains.

Near the hideout, there were rows of children’s graves.

“She said, ‘I was killed.'”

Then, ever since the child named Sanzo came, the child Ryo, who had been silent all along, seems to be acting strangely.

When Sanzo and the others followed Yagumo, who set out to search for Ryo, who disappeared on a snowy day,

A gunshot thought to be from the clouds echoes.

“To be ‘killed’ means that Yagumo killed a runaway youkai child, and Ryō ended up like that too.”

Seeing several people that Ryo couldn’t save and ended up taking action against.

Yakun decides to escape, believing that the humans will no longer remain silent.

When I returned to the hideout, the children had all been killed.

The villagers killed him.

Hearing the furious roar of Yabun and the screams of humans, Goku and the others could not be stopped.

The group confronted Yabun, who appeared with a pained expression.

The next morning, I gazed at a larger grave than the newly built children’s grave.

The four people left the place.

It’s tough… but I have to search for the next hideout for the remaining children.

>>4

Hope has been shattered.

In that episode

“While giving the concern that ‘Goku and the other yokai might eventually become like this.'”

If that happens, I’ll take care of it, Sanzo declared with determination to make things right.

The fact that the group is made up of both humans and youkai makes it difficult to completely take sides with either, which is quite painful.

>>5

I’ve only read the original work, but at that moment, when Goku stopped speaking, Sanzo simply saying “I’ll kill you” is really great…

It was so tough that I might as well watch the episode with the breast monster, Yaho Nezumi…

I only saw the beginning too.

At the beginning of the first season, Hakai’s past was really tough, wasn’t it?

If your lover is kidnapped by a villain and you risk your life to save them

I am already tainted and pregnant by a villain, unable to live with you anymore, and being killed right in front of you will become a trauma.

I thought it was a story about sky burial, but it was different.

I feel like that was really depressing too.

>>10

Is it still there…?

No, that’s the same for the first season, and this one is also quite full of crap depression, isn’t it?

I’m a fan of graphic novels, but has the story about the village of yokai and the village of humans fighting over the waterside been made into an anime?

I really want you to see it because it goes from a slightly heartwarming atmosphere to a deep sense of despair.

But you know.

Isn’t it tyrannical to expect the villagers to stay quiet even if they’re killed by a rampaging yokai?

>>13

That’s true.

That’s why I feel hopeless and depressed.

Was that the original anime that was on late night over there?

I thought it was impressive that RELOAD was able to perform well in the evening, the God chapter.

It’s all a dark story that can’t be masked by Sanzou’s strange poses.

>>22

Using it gives a somewhat surreal feeling, doesn’t it? Magkai Tenjo.

>>15

That’s too unreliable to gloss over with just that…!

Was it the second anime that had a story about the gods being enemies?

>>16

The original work is the original series, but the anime is RELOAD, so yeah.

I haven’t seen it all yet, but…

Shall we revisit and dig into it from Season 1…?

It seems like I can feel really good.

I haven’t properly read anything other than the non-reload version, but it’s been like that from the beginning, right?

It’s good to have a kind of straightforward chaos where things like civilization and fashion are noisy, so just let me draw something cool.

I was surprised that a character who looks like a tired old man with a cigarette in his mouth is actually something amazing.

I have a memory like that.

>>23

There are many applicable characters…

I think it might be about Karasu.

“If affected by the anomaly, kill before attacking people.”

This is the contradictory fate that Yawun bears while protecting the children.

In the end, it was Yahun himself who killed the humans.

It’s painful that, even though I’m not affected by the abnormality, I’m killing out of revenge on my own volition.

The voice from Houchuu’s “I’ll make you take something thick and hard, okay?” has been stuck in my ears.

A Western-style priest appeared, didn’t he?

My partner is an Indian gunman.

>>27

It’s fun to compare how the endings differ between Hazel, Gat GUNLOCK, and BLUST.

Is it snow drop…?

Drama CDs are great too.

Gunlock’s preview BGM is super memorable.

I liked the foolishness of Urasa.

If it weren’t for Saiyuki, I probably wouldn’t have smoked…

Urasai

Urasai urasai

Shut up!!

I love OP (opening themes).

Despite being contrary to Sanzo’s character, he often ends up helping others, but he has a pretty strong image of not being able to save them.

If it’s a pattern with the town’s petty monster, then I’ll cheerfully smash it and feel refreshed like China.

I have a memory of blankly watching it when I was a kid, but wasn’t it on in the evening…?

>>40

The TV anime was in the evening slot until the second installment, RELOAD, and starting from the next one, GUNLOCK, it was in the late-night anime slot.

>>40

Muji’s theme song in the 6 PM slot on TV Tokyo is by Yaguruma from Kamen Rider Kabuto.

The one that makes the scriptures of Sanzo wiggle.

The one who beats you with Goku’s Nyoibo.

The one who extends the chain of Gojō drastically.

Hakkai’s beam

It remains vividly in my memory.

They say it’s all about homo, but there were a few cute female characters too, right?

I watched a lot of things during my childhood that I thought were cool without worrying about being gay or anything.

I thought it was unfair that only Hakkai was shooting beams.

The spin-off is quite homoerotic, but I think the main storyline keeps it relatively restrained.

I still thought it was unfair that there were only girls on the side of the Red Boy because I was still pure.

>>48

Well, considering the original work, it’s true that there are no female elements on the Sanzo side, as it is in the original.

Everyone in the group has a painful past.

The enemy also generally has a painful past.
