In a way it makes me feel as if it were simply one long movie and not series. I don't know exactly where that feeling comes from though. I really like the pacing and the how the story progressed.

Anyone who compares something as crappy as Sola with a show like Kurenai needs mental help. I agreed with most of the points presented in the overall review, but one thing that went unmentioned that I personally thought was that Shinkurou is a step above most male protagonists; kind and naive like usual, but exceptionally ruthless and brutal once he starts fighting. Nor is he undecisive generally, which was a relief. The picture we see of him ends up almost schizophrenic, and I loved that. Great review! Lmao.

Of course there's still Kaiba and 20 faces on the run, but not many more interesting series. There are many good point in Kurenai. The best was maybe that only one novel was animated, on the choiche of four thus published. One season for one novel gave all the time to tell properly a beautiful story and to flesh out great characters. But the chars themselves were a bit disappointing at the end. Given the bad ending where the heroes won but the child was left in the lion mouth, as I already stated, Murasaki is unbelievable "mature" for her age. But the other chars aren't that flawless too. Shinkuro is a bit too "emo" for an assassin, and the head of the Kuhnoin family is a weakling... should i continue? Ok good art, good music, good voice acting, good package in a few words, but something didn't seem right to me at the very end. I'd give this serie no more than 70/100 Yes, given there were many contenders for the best spring show, Kurenai, with his above average art, won easily.

Definitely intelligent in its approach a certainly a strong contender for best series of 2008. Murasaki is just that great a character.

What really pulled me into it was the way the music just flows with the story and I don't know how to explain but left me emotional every episode, weather it be a bitter sweet moment or just hilarious, and sad impact. Well yea to sum it up the BGM just went really well with the scenes I loved this series and is so far the best series I’ve watched this year.

Apparently the romance was the main draw. Oh and Kurenai is one of the most memorable one-season shows, after Sola and Elfen Lied of course.
