After four episodes, I can easily say Casshern SINS is the best title on my list of animes I am watching. Among its repertoire: crisp designs, flowing and consistent animation, despite the blighted setting there are a few artful visuals, emotive music, psychologically interesting characters, and a smattering of intellectual themes concerning topics from existentialism to robotic love. All of this is weaved together with strong directing. I picked up Casshern SINS expecting an action show that is heavy on the style and light on the substance. I am pleased to see that this show has both in abundance.
