Kino's Journey -the Beautiful World- the Animated Series Complete Series Essentials Blu-ray

"The world is not beautiful. And that is why it is beautiful." Kino's Journey -the Beautiful World- the Animated Series, an anime based on the popular light novel by Keiichi Sigsawa, which aired in 2017, is now available on Blu-ray, featuring all 12 episodes of the complete series.

This work tells the story of a traveler named Kino and his talking motorbike named Hermes. They travel through a mysterious world, visiting countries with unique customs and cultures, while adhering to a simple rule: they stay in each country for only three days.

Diverse countries and philosophical depth

The countries that Kino and Hermes visit each have their own unique cultures and laws, and while some are filled with beautiful scenery, others are home to cruel customs. Even countries that appear peaceful at first glance may hide complex circumstances and problems within.

On their journey, Kino and his friends visit different countries, discovering their stories and collecting memories, staying only as long as necessary. The journey is constantly fraught with philosophical dilemmas, and sometimes forces Kino to make crucial decisions that put his life at risk.

The film explores profound themes such as "What is the purpose of the journey?" and "What does it mean to be human?" through a beautiful yet sometimes cruel story, giving viewers various insights.

An attractive production team and high-quality works

The anime is produced by Lerche, directed by Taguchi Tomohisa, script supervision by Sugawara Yukie, and character design by Amizaki Ryoko. The opening theme "Here and There" and the ending theme "Sugar Ball Moon" are both sung by Yanagi Nagi, further enhancing the atmosphere of the journey.

This work is aimed at people aged 14 and over, and is filled with depth and philosophical elements appropriate for that age group. At approximately 300 minutes (5 hours), you can fully immerse yourself in the unforgettable world of Kino and Hermes' journey.

Contents

This Blu-ray contains all 12 episodes, allowing viewers to experience the beauty of an imperfect world through the story of Kino and Hermes visiting various countries.

A story that makes you think about the meaning of travel

Kino's Journey is not just an adventure story. Through the unique cultures of each country and their sometimes incomprehensible customs and habits, it is peppered with universal questions such as "What is justice?" and "What is happiness?"

In one country, all residents have the ability to read thoughts, in another "killing each other" is legal, and in another "travelers" are given special treatment. Amidst these diverse values, Kino continues his journey, searching for his own answers.

Sometimes beautiful, sometimes cruel, and always thought-provoking -- that's the world of Kino's Journey. As the story progresses, Kino's own past and the reasons why he is traveling are gradually revealed.

Kino's Journey -the Beautiful World- the Animated Series is a perfect work not only for anime fans, but also for those who enjoy thinking about human nature and society.

Despite its simple setting, the story deals with profound themes, its unique worldview, and the memorable characters weave together a story that will stay with you long after you've finished watching.

Beautiful animation by Lerche, heartfelt music by Nagi Yanagi, and a profound story by Keiichi Sigsawa. This work beautifully combines all of these elements, so why not join Kino and Hermes on a journey into a beautiful and mysterious world?

Please experience the stories each country has to offer and the beauty of the world that emerges from them.
