Mushishi Zoku Shou Episode 1 Review: The Old Mushishi Remains Alive And Well - Expect Many Fulfilled Promises This Spring Season!

 

Introduction: Mushishi Kicks it off With a Decent Start and Well-Focused Goal in Mind

The second season of Mushishi begins with a relaxing episode about a sake brewer who discovers the existence of Mushi. This is a reasonable story to tell as a first episode since it will ease those who haven't seen the first season into the fantasy world of Mushi. Of course, it also serves as an overview of the world of Mushi for those who have forgotten the basics. After all, it's been about 10 years since the original animated adaption. Therefore, the first episode or Mushishi Zoku Shou this season has succeeded serving its purpose and function; although it has done this in other ways as well, as explained below.
