They turned from awesome to a parade of still images and low-budget effects. Here, they look like they are forced to express anything. Look at those grimaces! The characters in the manga had really insane looks. PRODUCTION VALUES Well what can one expect from DEEN? Average to bad animation and sloppy artwork. The anime drops it to 12 in order to broaden the audience and piss the hell out of the fans of the manga.

And boy, this series messed big time!This review will make a lot of comparisons to the manga, as I feel it ruined the original story to a great extend. A major factor in making a successful shonen series is NOT to make the audience think. In this version, the plot was so boring that you had plenty of time to think how stupid it all was. Yet, it didn’t feel stupid in the original version, as the continual epic battles and dramatic pauses left no space for you to think this reasonably. Its adaptation to anime tried to speed up things in order to get to the point faster, but did so many changes and watering down that turned an otherwise ok title to a bull-fest of mediocrity.It is true that the story is somewhat generic and ends in a very WTF way. Damn those adaptation decays! The original was very pleasing to keep reading, despite falling to the usual pitfalls of shonen series. LEGACY Having read the manga the series is based upon I can say for certain that this is the worst anime adaptation I have come across in my life. The only other work he has made and got animated is Code Breaker, which is far from good. Based (very loosely) on the manga by Kamiju Akimine and it is a fine samuai action story. His best works amongst them was the second half of Ranma 1/2 (the part where it gets bad) and Nurarihyon no Mago (a more than typical shonen show). Thus begins a grand tale of legendary two swordsmen and the discovery of their secrets.THE STAFF - Animated by studio DEEN, which means bad production values and shitty adaptation.- Directed by Nishimura Junji, who despite his numerous projects, he has prodused nothing of importance. This encounter awakens 'Demon Eyes' Kyou, whose mind has been trapped inside of Kyoushirou's body ever since that fateful battle. On her way to claim his bounty, they are attacked by an inhuman monster that seeks to devour Kyoushirou. Their legendary clash was cut short when a meteor from the heavens fell down upon that battlefield, leaving both to vanish in its wake.Samurai Deeper Kyou begins four years after that battle, when a gun-wielding bounty hunter by the name of Yuya Shiina hunts down Kyoushirou-now a perverted, traveling medicine-man who has built up a large debt. The other was the thousand-man slayer, with eyes and hair the color of blood, 'Demon Eyes' Kyou. One was Kyoushirou Mibu, a skilled and noble warrior in possession of the unique powers of the Mibu Clan. In the year 1600, at the fog-covered battlefield of Sekigahara, a fierce battle was waged by two exemplary swordsmen.
