Seirei no Moribito Review

Note: This review may contain spoilers.

A few weeks ago I stumbled a cross a nice looking anime named Seirei no Moribito
or translated "Guardian of the Sacred Water Spirit". So I started watching it and I found
a very short and sweet anime series.
Though not as amazing as some other
famous anime titles, Seirei no Moribito did
leave us a nice impression. It runs for
a short 26 episodes each one filled with
action and emotion that will draw its viewer
in. There was one thing that we found a bit
annoying was that it did have a few episodes
that can be described as "filler"

Animation

Some of the most beautiful and stylistic animations we have ever seen. This made a
heavy impression on us in the first episode when we noticed that it had a very unique
style that was clear and reflected the genre
of adventure and fantasy. The animation is
gorgeous throughout the series and is
unique and different from other animes
which is why we enjoyed it so much. There
are nice animations of various mystical
creatures and characters in the series.
There are some scenes of violence but is
not too gory.

Characters

While there is a small cast of characters we did enjoy watching Balsa, a female
bodyguard protecting Chagum. Balsa has a great deal of development in the series
and so does Chagum. There were other
characters but most of them don't do too
much in the series. We enjoyed how there
were episodes that focused on Balsa's
and Chagum's past and gave us an in
depth view of how they became what they
were. We were however a bit taken aback
about the lack of other characters in the
series and it was the same people over and          
  Chagum with other characters
over.

Plot

The plot was what gave this series its originality. The story focuses around young
Chagum who has a sacred water egg inside of it and Balsa protects him from his
own father, the emperor, and his group of
elite warriors who try to assassinate
Chagum. We don't to spoil the ending to
our audience so well give you a brief hint
about the rest of the plot. Their is a major
plot twist near the last few episodes and let
me tell you, the last few episodes were
amazing and were a great way to end the
series. The ending is very nice and leaves                
Warriors sent by the emperor
the viewer hoping for more.

Soundtrack

None to speak of, we did however enjoy the music in the series even though there
was no soundtrack released. The opening fit the series very well and the music while
decent did fit the anime nicely.

Overall

A nice anime that is worth watching. It is a good way to waste a weeked. Seirei no
Moribito has exceeded our expectations and we recommend it to all our viewers.
