I could believe the Murasaki’s father would allow her to live outside the Inner Sanctuary and maybe even end the Kuhouin traditions but I think if Murasaki’s dad is the Gorbachev of the family then the son is like the Ayatollah Khomeini of the family. The second reason why I didn’t like the ending was the resolution of the problem of Murasaki’s freedom. Yayoi suddenly able to beat the snot outta the same person that nearly killed her 15 minutes ago Yayoi after losing to that woman a second time I’d love to see Yayoi beat that woman but it’s not possible with what the show did up to the point of their third meeting. For example, when Yayoi goes from being defeated for a second time against the same opponent and having to be carted off because she’s more then halfway through death’s door to easily beating the same opponent 15 minutes after said carting off, it’s not possible even for an anime character and really is a mood breaker. This was probably partially due to the episode count not allowing a more convincing ending but it undeniably hurts the show. I’m willing to give the show a little slack since it’s been so enjoyable but I did not like the ending at all. My favorite episode was probably episode 8 with the visit to the shrine though episode 6 with the awful play was a close second. The scores are a bit deceptive or at least not fully representative of how I feel about the episodes now that the show is over. Since I only started doing my weekly review part way through the show, I’m using my spring anime review score to cover the first 5 episodes. Now onto my analysis but first here are my weekly Kure-nai rankings in MS Excel form. They are eventually successful in reaching Murasaki and defeating the Kuhouin family but Murasaki decides leaving the family would be running away so instead she settles with being able to live outside of the Inner Sanctuary.
#Murasaki brothers free
After a bit of mopping, he decides to free Murasaki and along with Benika and Yayoi breaks into the Kuhouin estate.
Murasaki encounters a world very different then her pampered bird cage life from before and the fish-outta-water aspect dominates the first half of the show.Įventually the Kuhouin family find Murasaki and drag her back when a suddenly impotent Shinkurou can’t stop them. Shinkurou lives in a tiny room (no private bathroom here) in a run-down apartment building with a few interesting neighbors. Murasaki decides she wants to see the outside and agrees to go.īenika runs a operation that handles disputes and decides to let one of her employees, Shinkurou, protect Murasaki while she’s outside. One day, however, a woman named Benika sneaks into the Inner Sanctuary with the offer to take Murasaki out to the real world. This is were the story starts – 7 year old Murasaki is living in the Inner Sanctuary and knows that she is to have her brother’s children in just a few short years. The second is that Kuhouin women cannot marry because they are required to have children from their brothers and thus continue the Kuhouin line. The first is that Kuhouin women live in whats known as the Inner Sanctuary, an interior part of the estate that is totally cut off from the outside – no windows, no communications, no internet, tv, radio, etc. They are a super-rich family that has many secrets that they don’t want to come to light. The story behind Kure-nai start with the Kuhouins. Spoilers follow so read on at your hazard. Pros: Murasaki, slice-of-life elements, animation – outside of an occasional shot – was very prettyĬons: ending felt rushed which allowed events that seriously stretched plausiblity to occur and also the ending left a sour taste in my mouth.Īwards that this blog has given to the show The precocious child, Murasaki, was the fire behind what made this show good but her circumstances, along with the episode count, ultimately denied this show from greatness. (As a side note to people coming from animenano, my last post wasn’t listed on there for some reason – so if you want to read that as well, please do and find out why I’ve been derailed by spore.)
