bee-love Inuyashiki - Fall 2017
Inuyashiki is the Noitamina anime of the season! You know it has to be good. Attack on Titan, Kabaneri and more were Noitamina anime too!

Synopsis

Ichirou Inuyashiki is a boring salaryman reaching old age. He spends his days alienated at work and at home, but one day he is suddenly diagnosed with cancer and falls into despair. That’s when, thanks to a certain accident, he receives super-hero like powers.

Then there’s high-school student Hiro Shishigami, who was also involved in the accident and starts using the powers he received as he wishes.

Is the true nature of humans good or evil? These two who have gained great powers start to move according to each of their feelings.

Three Episode Impression

From the dude who brought us Gantz, welcome to Inuyashiki. Inuyashiki is about an old man alienated by his family. Rude and selfish, they only see him as a source for money and nothing else. One day, he ends up at a park in a depression after being told he has terminal cancer and sees a bright light. The next thing he knows, he wakes up with a super futuristic body full of weapons bequeathed from beings from the light. He decides to use his powers to save people. Hiro, the boy who also received a robotic body, decides to use his powers to terrify people to feel alive.

This show is what we expected and more. Though, Inuyashiki doesn’t really need to sing each time he wants to transform his body. It is slowly building and right after Hiro murders a whole family, Inuyashiki confronts him, and Hiro realizes that he has a rival. The viewer is subjugated to all of these emotions where you just want to leap through the screen and give Hiro and Inuyashiki’s family a smack down, but it seems as if we are just going to have to wait a little bit longer for Inuyashiki to do it himself. A must watch this season hands down.
