DVD REVIEW:
This anime has to be
one of the few that I watched
and simply said "Huh?"
"The Soultaker"
is an awesome anime with cool visuals but in terms of storyline
and plot, it's one of those that you can tell...you need to watch
and stay in for the long haul because the first few episodes is
quite disorienting and confusing but visually quite satisfying
to watch.
The character designs
are pretty cool and the characters themselves are quite interesting
but I can't say much about the anime just yet. Again, it's one
of those that you need to decide for yourself it you want to stay
in it for the long haul.
As for the DVD, it looks
beautiful and the colors look great. Audio, it was good...nothing
spectacular. As for special features, the usual textless op/ed.
But the booklet is really an interesting read, although it does
contain spoilers for upcoming episodes.
All in all, a very interesting
anime that I will need to keep watching before I make a judgement.

C+
