The story is focusing on characters and their journey, so they did a good job countouring each one of them and developing them. Did I mention that I don't like 3D animations for anime? The things that bothered me the most are in regards to it being in chinese, and the way it went with the 3D animation, not always being on point but that's typical for 3D animations. Music is decent and it goes well with the scenes, sometimes repeating songtracks, but who doesn't do that? Just what you would expect from the typical decent anime, but in chinese. However, from the standpoint of the voice acting I don't think it's bad. It bothers the hell out of me to listen them speak chinese instead of japanese. I will say this now: I am not a fan of anime in chinese. The time allocated for the first episodes is kind of lacking, each of them being just a few minutes, but as the anime progresses, they switched to the more typical time for the episodes of around 20 minutes. The characters were well made, although not following exactly the traits from the manhua, and at this point I came to like them more as they seem more "likeable" to say so. The scenes are clear enough to understand what is happening, and besides some weird movements the characters are doing and some 3D typical special effects which are not my thing, they did a pretty good job. With time I started to get used to this kind of 3D animation and it didn't bother me that much anymore. I'm still not a fan of 3D animations in anime, but I've see much worse than this, and not many that were much better.

Overall, for a 3D animation is not that bad, and it can be quite amaizing the things they managed to pull off with it. I am one of those people that are not into 3D animations for anime, but with such a story you'll immerse yourself in it and forget about that. But I did notice some plot flags being changed from the manhua. Or maybe the story from manhua is a little different from the novel and the animation is following the novel. possibly it could be leading in another direction than the manhua. On the bright side, they already promised a second season, so there's that.īy changing some things from the manhua in the animation it either leaves things out which will be covered up later, or will end up in changing the details of the story. However, the "first season" comes to a quite abrupt end, leaving you wondering what will happen next,but that is not much of a surprise as you'll stumble quite often upon episodes that end like that. However, his death does not mark the end of his journey, but the begining of a new life in another world, while retaining all his memories. The adventure follows his developement as he grows up once again, but the developement of those around him as well, and it turns out into a story that is more complex than you would expect in the begining. The story follows a young disciple of the Tang Sect who dedicated his life to studying and practicing their techniques, however, by learning some secrets which he was not supposed to, he decides to repent with his life. Since I didn't read the novel entirely, I can't say which one the animation follows after more closely, however, I can say that it has differences from the manhua not only by leaving details out, but by changing some parts of the story and character appearances as well. Soul Land is an adaptation of the chinese manhua / novel that has the same name.

#Lou vuo anime series#
I'm really looking forward to how the series will continue! :) (i had some difficulty's recognising tang sans master and the evil eyed white tiger) altough xiao er still a tsunami of pink is. (i am pretty sure that rwby also has an animation wich looks like this(i am very very sorry if i'm wrong, i have never seen rwby and i don't want to upset people)) so i mainly just hope that people don't judge just couse of the animation style.įor the rest the plot has not changed much from the manhua (spoiler alert!) the characters are a little off, but that is only for the person who has seen the manhua too.

but i don't really think that way, chinese animation is maybe a bit different from the usual, but it does not mean its bad just because its differently animated. so i have seen some reviews from another manhua witch also has an chinese animation (tales of demons and gods) and mostly saw critical revieuws about the animation being bad and that the character changed and so on. The manhua of douluo dalu is really good, so when i saw there was also an animation i didn't hesitate to watch it.
