Comments on: Amatsuki Review - 90/100 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2008/06/28/p1912/ An anime blog covering a large variety of series, both popular and underrated.

They left out the whole subplot in the "real world" with Sensai Corp, Hashita, etc; they don't mention Suou...it seems like a lot of the intricacies of the manga--which make it a bit hard to follow, but make it more unique--are completely lost in the anime.

I also believe it would be a waste to not continue this series!!! i wish they would make a second season! everything about this anime was wonderfully done, but they left of at the begining of something new happening!

I don't know why since it's something that normally wouldn't have caught my attention... I cannot wait for season 2, and I hope that they make it longer and develop the story more because it has GREAT potential. I loved this anime (also assuming that more is to come)!

I think the theme of misunderstandings and clashes between humans and ayakashi is better fleshed out in 'Natsume Yuujinchou'. Saying that, this felt like a long introduction, so if it does make a second season it might grow into something outstanding. (Also, I loved Utsubushi! There should be more giant beaky birdmen in anime!) It was a beautiful looking anime, but I found it a bit long-winded and puzzling in places.

It's a bit aggravating that there still is no word on it, but it would be so much wasted potential if the creators didn't continue this series somehow.

It's just like it was building up to something but ended the series still building, no closure for me or sense of satisfaction. Considering the length of the series 6 episodes on the fox and a couple of episodes on flashbacks and alot of philosophical talk sprinkled about seems a bit too much for the length of the series, maybe if they continue the series it will turn out ok having given it a good foundation, though I look at it as a promo for the manga as it is.

I had downloaded night wizard and kept amatsuki on my computer to watch sometime but I hit episode 9 in night wizard and just thought to myself "I can't watch this piece of crap ANY longer". I threw amatsuki on and almost marathoned it. I think I fell in love starting on episode 2. These not necessarily slow, but "soft" moving shows just hit me where it counts. I LOVE how the borders between the "good" and the "bad" guys are just BARELY there. The last episode...Wow. Just loved it. IF. There is a second season. The first part of the final episode was just so heartwarming and great. The second part was good as well for a build up for the second season. Wow, this anime was just amazing to watch.

Can you tell we prefer the "historical" anime ? enjoy Amatsuki? shoot, we love it! this is right up there with Otogizoshi (Heian arc only). graphically not as vibrant or complex, but the story line and characters/character development are outstanding. so far it compares favorably to Shounen Onmyoji.

And for the the individual category ratings, I'd think it would be easier to read if you had 7 outlined stars for each section and filled them in for the rating! Just a suggestion though but thanks for the review!
