Yokai Ningen Bem (2011)

I went into this drama expecting it to be pretty iffy.
I was surprised however by how much I actually liked it.
The story line was original. It followed the anime somewhat. and the characters were very intriguing. The actors did a great job. I felt all of their emotions especially their pain. Although the special effects were kind of dated I just associated it as a relation to the old 60's anime that this is based off of. It's a great watch. I recommended it to anyone. Except if you're expecting a love story there is none. So don't bother watching if that's what you're looking for. Other then that Happy Watching Everyone!

I wanted to rate this a 9, but I rated it 8 after thinking about it. I hated the special effects, many things looked really fake and sometimes the acting was a little awkward. But it still deserves an 8 in my opinion.

The overall idea and the story were lovely and unique. The music reminded me so much of Halloween and I love Halloween, I especially love the intro song. It's so cute.

The characters were interesting and I felt with them. My favorite was Belo, he's incredibly adorable. I liked Bela and the supporting characters, too, but sometimes I got a little frustrated with Bem being his awkward and shy self and not having much character development.. Bela won in that one, she made a huge transformation.

Getting back to the special effects which I didn't like and I was looking away when they transformed because I found it a little embarrassing and cheesy, but those things only made up about 5 % of the drama and I loved the rest of it.

Just give it a try, though I admit it may not be everyone's taste. :)
