I've been (very slowly) watching through Kino's Journey -the Beautiful World- the Animated Series lately (the 2017 one, not the older one). I honestly hadn't realized this was a sequel (or quasi-remake or whatever) until I'd already started this, and I doubt I'll look into the older one now because I really didn't like this anime. There was a boring, poorly written info-dump in every episode and everything felt so heavy-handed. One story was about a slave girl, so of course she was an absolute saint and everyone else was an absolute monster because apparently nuance doesn't exist in this universe. Every story left me wondering wtf the message was supposed to be, too. The moving country smashed through that other country's walls and destroyed all their crops and Kino was cool with it. Try to destroy the moving country's mural as a petty revenge, though, and Kino will mess you up. And the moral of this story is... uh... yeah. Honestly by the end I was watching just to see how much absolute nonsense they could fit into an episode so I was glad the finale delivered on that at least. Kino versus... man-eating sheep? Uhhh... alright then.
