Movie Reviews of Karas - The Revelation
Movie Review: Karas - the final conclusion
Summary: 5 Stars
I will be relative short with my review about the second part of Karas (but view spoilers will be included).
To begin with, the series starts off exactly where the previous one stopped. Now, Otoha (the main protagonist - and the `good' Karas - is respectively stripped of his powers) and his cat-girl is imprisoned. On top of that, Eko - the bad Karas - has almost accomplished his plans. No matter the circumstances, Otoha will head out with his friend (the guy who is a daemon as well, I think Nue was his name) for their final stand so as to stop Eko and his foes.
This will result to mind-blowing action scenes, flashbacks and therefore, more character development, both worlds (the spiritual and the material) will start to collide, the city will be annihilated during the fights, the new awakening of Karas and his cat-girl (something that you have to watch or otherwise I will give away the entire story), the Karas of the entire nation will come into the picture as well, protagonists/characters will die (well, unfortunately it will happen) but most of all it will lead to one of the best final and action packed battles of the anime series.
One more thing (Spoiler!!!) In a scene, close to the final battle it is implied that the feelings of `master and servant/helper/warrior (or whatever you want to call it)', cat-girl and Karas (referring to the cat-girl and Otoha), are deeper than they may appear at first...
Now, to the other details.
The dub is done perfectly as it was done in the first part.
The animation lives up to the expectations of the previous one.
The story starts to kick off from the first minute; in addition most answers will be answered, answers that were raised during the first volume - not to mention the fact that it gets emotional too.
The music is similar to the one people got used from the first Karas.
As for the extras, it has nearly the typical stuffs like previews and a view shots when the actors did the dub.
Well, all this been said Karas presents itself to be one of the best fantasy-action movies that came out recently and is definitely worth buying...
To conclude, this one (Karas - The Prophecy) and its continuation, (Karas - The Revelation) are highly recommended!!!
