After watching the Onmyoji anime on Netflix and thoroughly enjoying it, I became interested in watching Onmyoji 0. I anticipated an epic battle between the Onmyoji Abe no Seimei and demons, with the noble Minamoto no Hiromasa by his side. However, I was somewhat disappointed because the story deviated significantly from my expectations and the original concept of the anime.
Key Points:
- The film lacks demons, so there’s no battle to save the world. - It features a conflict between good and evil. - The movie explores Onmyoji's training, hierarchy, and power struggles for position. - The use of magic was limited - The movie also explored the hypnotism - The CGI was impressive.
