From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blassreiter (ブラスレイター,
Burasureitaa?) is a 2008 Japanese anime from the animation studio GONZO
and the multimedia studio Nitro+. The title literally means "Pale
Rider" in German, with rider referring to a horseman. A manga titled
Blassreiter -genetic- is serialized in Champion Red magazine.
Story
The
story is set in Germany and centers around the outbreak of
biomechanical creatures named "Demoniacs", who rise from corpses and
attack people mindlessly. The Demoniacs have the ability to merge with
most technology including cars and motorcycles. Against them is a group
of people who can transform into similar biomechanical creatures and
maintain their sanity. They bear motorcycles and high-tech weaponry to
combat the outbreak.
My Thoughts
It's an action-packed tv series with a bit of drama on it. I'm very
impressed with the animation as well as the character designs. The
story's about a group of special individuals who fights against
supposedly "dead" people who transformed into "demoniacs" who can merge
with vehicles and suddenly goes "berserk"...killing everyone who gets
in their way
. It's still a mystery what made these people the way they
are but certainly help is on the way because whenever these "demoniacs"
show - a hero, in a "demoniac" form comes into view and kills them
though no
explanation were yet revealed on the series about it.
-----
A lot of drama in this animé alright but it isn't that bad really
considering the kind of animation it has though i must say that it
tends to be a little bit boring sometimes
but i'm too impressed with
the animation and the story is somehow interesting so it's hard to let
go...the OP is kinda tricky ne? thought it was about racing too
although the protagonist are also into motorcycles but that's not
really the point...we'll see what episode 3 will be like...i ain't
giving up my hope yet
