Adventure and action mixed with a side of comedy and impressive characters. Saiyuuki Reload Blast really won me over.
At first, I thought that it would be an action anime with colourful characters but lacking any real storyline but I must admit that this anime was far from that.
On their journey to the west the four main characters; Genjo Sanzo, Goku, Hakkai and Gojou, find themselves slaying berserk demons as they make their way to India to stop the revival of the demon Gyumaou. Of course that's not even the tip of the iceberg, turns out their story together began 500 years ago!
I literally binge watched this 12 episode anime today and I have to say that I wish I knew about this series sooner and despite the fact that it has left me with more questions than answers, it is a very entertaining anime. I'll admit also, that there are some tear jerking moments.
This is actually the 4th season or so of this anime so I'll have to watch the first parts if I am to really understand the story line.
I would not recommend it for very young audiences though, due to the language, some content and graphics; there's literally blood splashed all over the screen. It is a Josei anime intended for older teens and young adult women so that's probably why.
This anime has that, boys will be boys feel to it and like any good art, it will leave you feeling something! Definitely a great watch if you're in the mood for a comedy, action, adventure anime.
