Description:
Neither good nor evil, they are life in its purest form. Vulgar and strange, they have inspired fear in humans since the dawn of time and have, over the ages, come to be known as "mushi."
Sound without source, for the voice is frozen. A consuming illness that cannot be seen. The sweet tones of childhood will damn those closest, but within the sacred smoke, her tale will be told.
A new species discovered. Decisions made in arrogance and fear. The flames of the dead will find succor in the heat of the living. Life will be undone. Light the fires; darkness is coming.
A world touched by four senses, until the filth becomes overwhelming. A gaze across the distance, across past, present and future. Eyes closed against the onslaught; eyes closed to all but truth.
Three paths will meet for a time on the mountain, to roam and relish and learn the lessons there to be learned. Three paths will separate, yet even time cannot erase where the foot has tread.
Contains episodes 23-26.

The (small) boost in emotional content notwithstanding, this is still the series to hit up for a watching experience that is consistently fun and never taxing.
This is a collection of gags in search of a plotline, and when it finally does find a story to tell, the change in tone is so abrupt that you end up wishing it had stayed pointless and stupid.
A young man becomes obsessed with a young woman who can transform into an alien biomechanical dragon in this weak effort from Gonzo. While not a total disaster, it does not give much hope for the rest of the series.
If this is the kind of stagnation and dullness that permeates the monster world, then we should all be thankful for being human.
Cybuster DVD 1Cybuster is the kind of show that's only suited to true mecha fans. Even then, the hardcore fans will probably dismiss it as an unworthy imitator of better giant robot shows.
