Movie Reviews of Witch Hunter Robin - Fugitive (Vol. 4)

Movie Review: Great stuff
Summary: 4 Stars

Witch Hunter Robin, Volume Four: Fugitive, reflects that Robin is now a fugitive from STN-J. Her place of refuge at the office with her co-workers and friends did not last long. She was soon escaping again as all her co-workers seem to be shot dead by a secret S.W.A.T. Team. She is aided in her escape by an unlikely helper - Amon. I am not spoiling anything, as all I have just described happens in the first ten minutes of the first episode.

There is a moment in the first episode of this DVD that deserves its own paragraph. We viewers of the first three volumes suspect Robin has fallen in love with Amon. Yet his treatment of Robin up until now has been distant at best, cruel at worst. There is a moment in episode fifteen when he catches her face in his hands like he is going to kiss her. My breath caught in my throat at that. We actually hear emotion, even passion, in Amon's voice in his parting words to Robin. I cannot WAIT for the two to reunite. HEART HEART HEART!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is shaping up to be one of the greatest anime romances of all time.

Solomon, STN-J, and others are after the mysterious "Splinter of Knowledge," said to be left behind when the "Immortal" old lady whom Robin met in the previous volume died. We are not told how or when she died, just that she is dead. Robin is assisted by a gangster-type "lawyer" named Nagira. Nagira's curiousity about this alleged relic is going to get him in big trouble.

In Fugitive, there is more character development. We see for the first time how much Robin's co-workers at STN-J care for her as they worry when she is missing. We see the little shy Robin from the nunnery become strong, independent, and resourceful. Harry makes an appearance. Although he offers wisdom, kind words, and good food, I still feel there is a lot more to Harry than meets the eye. This character is being wasted.

This DVD contains episodes 15 through 18: Time to Say Goodbye, Heal the Pain, Dilemma, and In My Pocket. Extras include previews for other anime DVD's, two interviews with Japanese voice actors (Robin and Ms. Karatsuma), and a very brief Malifica Compendium.
