the audience applauded
Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.
If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

View MoreI have to say this series really surprised me with its contents of the strange, awesome, and twisted story plot. New York is the setting where a dimensional rift has set up a bubble of a sort that those from another dimension and humans coexist in the same city. But to keep the peace a select few demons and humans work together to solve mysteries that occur as supernatural events. In the middle of the chaos is one man (Leo) who has the gift to alter the present as he sees fit. With eyes that are from an ancient god he is able to alter or traverse matter to his will. Aided with him are his troupe of hunters who also have various gifts that help in the face of evil.Yet through out his entire life Leo has never once paired up with a girl to make his life just a bit easier than it is now. Seeing as this was no obvious threat he meets one woman who will change his life either for the worse, or for the better depending on his view. His eyes are also sought after by the darkness for which he needs protection most of the time since his ability is just to change courses of matter or time. Except when he does use his gift his eyes sometimes blur out, which he cannot control.All in all I say this is an interesting series. It combines aspects of ridiculous chaos but to the troupe it's all in a days work. They take everything with a grain of salt in order to keep their sanity. It has also pin point aspects to another series called Cowboy Beebop with its rambunctious characters who look evil in the eye and say... "Neh what the hell."The music is top notch, the action is gratuitous in all ways, and the scenery is very gritty, which coincides to the working classes both dimensional or human. As they say the rich get richer and the poor always rebel. In either case Kekkai Sensen is in my view a very funny, and down to earth series with blends of the strange, mixing with unknown elements to give rise to a new cult classic. I hope in the future they do make a movie from the series cause it would be a thrill ride then. Ten stars for such a great series. Recommended to those 14 and above.
