So to start for those who dont know what K is or what its about. K is a 2012 anime writen by GoRA. It is 13 episodes long and follows school student Yashiro isana in a japan that turned out slightly different to the one we have today. 7 kings each represented by a color have supernatural powers, all of them can control their aura (which is their color). Only six kings have been mentioned so far; Silver, gold, red, blue, green and the colorless king.These kings can have clansmen who vow their lives to their clan, the kings used to be friends, but recent events caused them all to split up and many became enemies.
Episode one kicks off with a video of yashiro isana who claims himself to be the colorless king, apparently shooting red clansman tatara totsuka, causing the red clan, known for their violence yet strong bonds with each other, to go on the hunt for him, however the blue clan, who act as a police force in the K project universe also get involved. Not only this but former vassal of the previous colorless king, kuroh yatogami is also trying to kill shiro as he swore he would if his reincarnation turned out to be evil.
All of these leaves a very confused shiro, who has no recollection of any of the events, in a very bad situation.
So why do i like this anime? Well the most amazing thing is for sure the artwork and character design, it is completely unique and no anime is like it, i wish we had those colors in our world *-*. It is by far the most beautiful anime i have ever seen. Secondly is the soundtracks, this anime has some amazing background music that really adds affect to the scenes and it would be very different without it.
Whats not so great about this anime? Well saying it has a bad plot is simply not true, a messy one, yes. The ending of this anime is very well done and actually quite emotional, however it seems a bit rushed and leaves lots of unanswered questions, however the sequel film K missing kings (which i still haven't seen god damn it) and the confirmed season 2 should clear it all up!!Also several mangas have been released adding backstory to all the characters and clans and shows us things they couldnt put in the anime! Finally the fanservice, its completely unnecessary and im not sure what they wanted to achieve with it, especially since there is some aimed at both genders, fortunately its not too much and im able to overlook it but i feel not everyone will see it the same way. So anyway if you like Supernatural powers, badass guys and a bit of mystery along with awesome art and music, and can overlook some dodgy fanservice, defiantly give this one a hit! I will be doing more blogs about favorite characters and hopes for the future so stick around! Thanks for reading!https://www.youtube.com/user/JFKchickennugget/featured
