I am here to provide my review on the second part of Casshern Sins, a series rather unique in more ways than one. For those who have not read my previous review, I would advise you read it first. Read on for my review of Casshern Sins - Part 2, available on both DVD and Blu-ray from Siren Visual.

As you may have noticed, most of the titles I have reviewed over the last few weeks have been well.... modern or have some sort of happiness / warm fuzzy feeling. Taking a different type of anime this time left me with Casshern Sins, which was released last week by Siren Visual in Australia. This series has very little of the happiness element within it, instead uses more of a depressive and "end of the world" storyline to try and tug at the emotion of the viewers, and attempt to deliver a storyline that tries to captivate them through the people Casshern meets, as well as his own issues. Almost every story in the first part does not have a happy ending and you are left questioning more and more as the episodes go on. Personally, this was a big change for me since I have never really watched animes in this genre before, so was it any good? Read on for my review of Casshern Sins!
