Comment:

I do love watching supernatural anime such as Natsume Yujinchou and Mushishi to name a few so since Mokke is also a supernatural anime just like these two animes I've mentioned, I thought that I might give this anime a try.

There are a few things I noticed which is so typical in any supernatural anime. The first thing I noticed is it has a simple introductory storyline like this particular person can sense ghost, spirit, etc so it's also the same with Mokke. The introduction is simply easy to understand so you won't have any problem to understand the basic idea of this anime.

However, I also noticed that this kind of anime has a very slow plot development and Mokke is no exception when it comes to this. I don't mind with slow plot development because this kind of anime has this kind of pace of its own which makes this kind of anime different than any typical anime. Putting Mokke into this concept, I just find that Mokke is too slow and the storyline is pretty blunt. Like I said, supernatural anime is always like that. I got sick of it even just watching one episode. I realized that there's nothing exciting in this anime other than their many encounters of ghost and spirits. I tried to keep on watching this anime but at the end of the day, I gave up half way. I know it's sad but I find this anime boring.


Storyline-wise, it's a boring anime but there are also touching moment in this anime just like what we have seen in Natsume Yujinchou. I think this is the only part I find it nice to watch. Other than that, it's a boring anime. Honestly, this anime is only meant for Mokke fans.
