The appeal and evaluation of JuohseiOverview"Juohsei" is a TV anime series based on the manga by Natsumi Itsuki, which ran for 11 episodes from April 13 to June 22, 2006. It was produced by Bones, directed by Hiroshi Nishikori, with character design by Koji Osaka and series composition by Reiko Yoshida. The series tells an epic sci-fi survival story that left a strong impression on viewers. ■ StoryIn the year 2436, humanity has made its way into space and is moving towards the Vulcan star system. Twin brothers Thor and Rai were born in the space colony "Yuno" and were expected to have a bright future as the children of the privileged class. However, their parents are killed by their father's best friend Odin and they are dropped onto the death planet "Chimaera". Chimaera is a hellish place with alternating scorching hot days and freezing cold nights, and carnivorous plants flourish. While protecting his brother Rai, Thor is determined to survive and avenge his parents. As he searches for the truth behind the identity of Chimaera and the misfortune that has befallen them, Thor begins to walk towards the truth. ■ CharactersThe appeal of "Kyosei Beast King" lies in its characters with rich personalities. The protagonist, Thor, is an 11-year-old boy who uses his luck and toughness to face a harsh fate. His twin brother, Rai, is a gentle and timid boy with a personality that contrasts with Thor. Tiz is a "wild child" born and raised in Chimaera, and is a strong-willed girl who adores Thor. Third is the number three of the Brown Wheel, and is a mysterious young man who looks after Thor in every way. Chen is the leader of the Yellow Wheel, and is a beautiful woman who cannot stop loving Third. The drama woven by these characters adds excitement to the story. ■ Production staffThe production of "Juohsei" brought together a powerful group of creators, including Nishikiori Hiroshi. Osaka Koji, who was in charge of character design and general animation direction, is a veteran known for "Mobile Suit Victory Gundam" and "Kaikou Kidou Hiwou Senki." Series composition director Yoshida Reiko has a track record with "The Cat Returns" and "Maria-sama ga Miteru." Watanabe Takashi, in charge of concept design, has visualized the intricate settings of the original comic in works such as "AKIRA" and "Innocence." The gathering of these staff members has allowed the worldview of the original work to be faithfully reproduced while maximizing its appeal as a film work. ■MusicThe opening theme "Deep in your heart" was written, composed and sung by Koichi Domoto, and its powerful melody and lyrics bring out the theme of the story. The ending theme "Hold Me" features Younha's gentle voice, making it a song that will stay in the hearts of viewers. These songs express the emotions of the story in a rich way, enhancing the viewing experience. ■ Evaluation and impressions"Beast King Planet" has been highly praised by many viewers for its grand sci-fi survival story and its unique characters. In particular, the film depicts the brotherly love between Thor and Rai, and the struggle for survival in the harsh environment of Chimaera, and contains many scenes that call into question humanity and ethics, deeply moving viewers. Other points of praise include the beauty of the visuals, which faithfully reproduce the intricate settings of the original work, and the strength of the music. However, some viewers expressed dissatisfaction with the short broadcast period of only 11 episodes. Some felt that the story unfolded too quickly, as the original's lengthy storyline was wrapped up in a short period of time. Nevertheless, "Juohsei" managed to bring out the best in the limited time available, making it a must-see for sci-fi anime fans. ■ Recommendation pointsThe reasons why we recommend "Beast King Star" are as follows:
