Babylon

BABYLON

In the newly formed Shiniki district of Tokyo, Zen Seizaki serves as a diligent public prosecutor at the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office. Assigned to a case involving false advertising, Zen—along with his assistant officer, Atsuhiko Fumio—investigates Japan Supiri, a pharmaceutical company that had provided fabricated clinical research on its new drug. While reviewing the file of Shin Inaba, an anesthesiologist connected to the crime, the case takes a dark turn when Zen discovers a page stained with a mixture of blood, hair, and skin, along with the letter "F" scribbled all across the sheet. As he investigates further, the case goes beyond Zen's imagination and becomes vastly complex, challenging his sense of justice and his knowledge of the truth. Digging deeper into the investigation, Zen begins to uncover a concealed plot behind the ongoing mayoral election and ties to many people of interest involved in the election and those closer than he thinks. The case grows more severe and propels Zen into an unforeseen hurricane of corruption and deceit behind the election, the establishment of the Shiniki district, and the mysterious woman associated with it all.

9/10 W prostą historię kryminalną wrzucono sporo filozofii, a zwłaszcza etyki odnośnie kategorii dobra i zła natomiast dwójka głównych bohaterów przypomina rozprawę między dobrem i złem o ich genezę oraz fundamenty...
Ciekawa historia, która chyba miała ambicje być czymś więcej. Niestety, wyszło dosyć słabo. To znaczy, całkiem przyjemna w oglądaniu i zrealizowana poprawnie, ale pod koniec całość zaczyna kuleć. A najbardziej już ostatnia scena, ale to trzeba zobaczyć, żeby zrozumieć. Twórcy chyba nie odrobili zadania domowego i przed napisaniem scenariusza nie zajrzeli do podręcznika etyki - oto cała dyskusja z 11 odcinka jest niczym więcej jak znacznym uproszczeniem 2500 lat etyki. I wbrew pozorom to ciągnie tę serię w dół, bo przecież zamiast płytkich teoretycznych dywagacji lepiej pokazać wszelkie dylematy w praktyce.
Tak czy siak, zobaczyć można, ale nie jest to pozycja na tzw. międzyczas. Ode mnie 6/10 i jednak cicha nadzieja, że będzie jakiś rozsądny epilog.
Dla niekumatych i administracji bez pojęcia:
The official Twitter account for Revoroot's Babylon TV anime announced on Tuesday that episode eight will be delayed until December 30. The anime will resume its broadcast on Tokyo MX on December 30 at 10:00 p.m, while Amazon Prime Video will begin to stream the anime at the earlier time of 12:00 a.m.
Mam nadzieję na tłumaczenie, bo... to kawał dobrej opowieści. Bardziej przypomina dobry film, albo książkę. Nic nie jest tu pewne, trzeba się skupić, wczuć, a wczuć jest się łatwo. Dobra animacja, nie zraża, a i zaskakuje!
