Review

 The first episodes might be boring.I didn’t really enjoy watching them but later the show really gets good.There is nothing such as an epidemic the reason of the deaths are Okiagari ( Some people might call them vampires ). Dead ones who come back to life. I’m really glad this anime is here. Because I’m sick of the shows who show only romace between humans and vampires. This anime is different. If you miss old school vampire animes,this is for you.

The art is very abstract and I think the style is unique. Please don’t be one of this people who hates Shiki because they say the art is weird. What?! They are having interesting hairstyles.Really I never saw so much crazy hairstyles but this is not bad.The art could be better but I like it like it is.

OP and ED fitted nicely, but I was completely taken by the rest of the OST. Orchestral music at its best.

The story is amazing. If you still didn’t choiced to start watching Shiki you’re going to miss something. :3

I highly recommend this anime to anyone who has a fondness for thought-provoking shows. It’s definitely not comedic, if that is what you’re looking for. But if you appreciate mysteries, dark themes and some psychological reasoning, then do give Shiki a try.

My Final Review: 8.3

Summary

The story is about a small town in rural Japan named Sotoba, where a series of bizarre deaths occur, coinciding with the arrival of the Kirishiki family who has just moved into a castle built on the outskirts. Toshio Ozaki, dean of the only hospital in Sotoba, begins to investigate and discovers there are supernatural presences at work, namely vampires, who are called shiki, which translates to English as “corpse demon“.

    I absolutely loved Shiki and you are right, at least they don’t try to build a romance between the humans and vampires. The interractions are so much more interesting. Thanks for sharing.
