Shingetsutan Tsukihime

Post by angelx03 » Sat Jan 24, 2004 6:46 pm

I've just finished the entire series. This is HIGHLY recommended for anyone who likes mystery, drama and a pinch of romance. Since I'm lazy to write up my own synopsis, here's one from Anime News Network:
Shiki Tohno sustained a life threatening injury as a child, and due to that incident he was sent away from the Tohno household and was given to a relative to be raised. Years later, when Shiki is in high school, the head of the Tohno household--his father--dies, and he is ordered to move back in by his sister Akiha, who is the new head of the household. However, Shiki holds a huge secret. Ever since that injury, he has been seeing lines on objects, and only with a special pair of glasses is he able to stop seeing them. Also he is unable to remember anything well from the time before his accident. Nevertheless, those people he meets from this point forward and those of his past will all come together in time, and all secrets will be revealed.
The only thing I was little bit confused was
Arcueid's inconsistant death scenes especially during the last episode.
It's only 12 episodes, but it's worth it. Any thoughts or comments?

Personalyl I thought it was decent. It did not quite live up to the hopes I had for it. Arcueid on the other hand was an awesome character, and she really made the show shine. Shiki was a putz, and all of the other main characters I was essentially indifferent to, but Arcueid caused me to watch it every week. In the end, it had a decent plot that wasn't fleshed out enough, characters that could have been better given more time to develop, and a villain that seemed transparent and 2 dimensional. It was all right, but given another 10 or som episodes it could have been so much more.
