Story and Characters

The story of "Tojo Senjin!! Mushibugyo" is set in the Edo period and tells the story of young people battling giant insects called "Mushi". The main character, Juzo, is a Mushibugyo and fights alongside his friends. The OVA "Gakuen Mushibugyo" depicts Juzo and his friends as they fight against Mushi while living their school life. This episode delves deeper into the character growth and relationships from a different perspective than the main story of the series.

Animation and Music

The animation by Seven Arcs Pictures faithfully reproduces the visuals of the original work, while providing beautiful images with a focus on movement and color. In particular, the battle scenes with insects are powerful and leave a strong visual impact. Music is also an important element in enhancing the atmosphere of the work, with the background music and theme song enhancing the development of the story.

Director and production staff

Director Takayuki Hamana has succeeded in depicting a new story in the special format of an OVA while still understanding the worldview of the original work. The production staff also worked well as a team, creating a work that can be enjoyed not only by fans of the original work, but also by new viewers.

Related information and recommendations

I would also recommend that fans of "Mushibugyo" read the original manga. The world view depicted by Hiroshi Fukuda has a depth that cannot be experienced through the anime alone. I also recommend "Hozuki no Reitetsu," an anime also set in the Edo period, and "Mushiking: The King of Beetles," which has an insect theme. These works also attract viewers with their unique world view and storytelling.

Additionally, be sure to check out other works produced by Seven Arcs Pictures, such as Yuki Yuna is a Hero and Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, which offer high-quality animation and storytelling.
