Jyu Oh Sei - Planet of the Beast King
Has anyone taken the time to check this Anime out? I just finished it and I must say, this is the first one in a while that I have been very impressed with. And I've watched ten series's a month for the past four years. I mean, there a lot of Animes out there that I love, but every now and then I find one that triggers me to go out and actually purchase the series to show my love for it.
Jyu Oh Sei is set in a futuristic time, away from the home planet they abandoned, Earth. Through terraforming, other planets were established in distant reaches of our galaxy. One in particular, was kept hidden away from the rest of the public eye as an experimental planet. This planet was known as Chimera, the planet of the Beast King.
The story for the most part takes place on Chimera, which is a planet that the humans made to resemble Earth. But no matter how hard they tried, the terraformed planets never grew to comparison with Earth. On Chimera, the world is ruled by the plant life. Many of the plant life on this planet is alive and have minds of their own. To make things worse, the planet gets half a year of night time winter, and half a year of daytime heat.
The people that are sent to this planet must live the life of a savage, trying to compete with other clans for power and shelter.
There is a great Sci Fi feel to this show, all the while maintaining a medieval vibe. It is kept short and sweet with only twelve episodes in the series, and I must say, that twelve is all they needed. I loved the change of pace it was to the usual Animes that I watch that are set on Earth in random ages.
I only watch dubbed Anime, and I think they did a good job on the voice acting.
If you ever have time, check this Anime out. Hopefully you will enjoy it as much as I did.
