Mushishi
Mushishi (TV Show) ★★★★ [WIP] Mystery, Thriller, Horror, Drama [SPOILER] Binged Mushishi for the 4th time and it's as good as the first time. Slow paced, mysterious and sometimes tragic, Mushishi packs a punch for people like me who are amazed everytime a new mushi related phenomenon is introduced i.e every episode. The show touches upon human emotions like anger, greed, loneliness, death, tragedy, moral dilemma. It also provides us food for thought for topics like immortality, time, life, society, nature, self-worth, love.
While dealing with the supernatural, the helplessness of mortal beings is evident in each story. I love that Ginko, the protagonist does the best he can while causing minimal interference to both realms. He often provides the remedies and recommendations to the troubled but leaves it upto them to take decisions for themselves.
Every episode makes the audience feel that they are solving the mystery with Ginko and that's where his common sense and some extra bit of experience with mushis shines. We are in awe of his problem solving skills and expertise.
