New Summer Anime Shows Update.

Well it has been a while since I last posted and a lot of new interesting summer shows have appeared.

Baccano!
This new series is quite interesting. It is not for the feint or lighthearted people this show is gore-rific. It has some of the most grisly and bloody scenes I have seen since tokko. People getting ripped into shreds with bullets. Heads being blown apart by shotguns and the best part is that due to the fact these people being ripped apart are some kind of immortals. We get the joy of watching the bloody mess reverse as if played backwards. All the blood every last drop flies back to its owner in an very fluid and beautiful animation sequence. And this show is beautiful even with all its gore the animation is top notch and high quality. The movements and expressions of the characters are fluid and realistic. (well as realistic as a superhuman immortal can be.) So far I am still trying to understand the story. But the gist of it is there is a crime family in say early 1930's new york made up of immortals who cannot die or be hurt. Some are normal others are plain creepy. I am not quite sure what the reporter guy and little girl are to the whole story but it is sure to be interesting. If you haven't checked it out you should.

Mushi-Uta
This series is turning out to be very interesting it had started very slow but has been picking up steam recently and is a great one to watch. The premise is about a creature the "mushi" who attach themselves to human beings and feed off their dreams. In return they grant their host incredible supernatural powers. The government has setup a special group who's job it is to hide the existence of the mushi by eliminating them or getting the hosts to join their forces. But there is another group who is fighting for freedom to use their powers as they want. When a mushi is eliminated the host becomes comatose or becomes a "sleeper." However if you lose your dreams the mushi will turn on its host and consume them.

The story takes place some years after events a long time back when a girl mushi is destroyed by a young government agent. Suddenly years later she wakes up. Which is unheard of and her mushi and powers are back. After escaping custody she runs into the boy from long ago but neither recognizes each other but they seem to have some kind of bond. As the story has progressed she is finding herself in the middle of the war between the government and rebels with friends on both sides what will she do. And what will the boy do if he finally realizes who the girl he has fallen for is the same one he sent away so long ago. Very interesting check it out if you haven't already. You wont be disappointed.
