phoenicality 's review for:
Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World
by Keiichi Sigsawa
Maybe it's because I was coming to this from being a fan of the anime adaptation, maybe it's just the stories that were shown here, but this book didn't really do a lot for me. The anime had a really great visual design, and a sense of a coherent, ugly-yet-beautiful world around it, and none of that came through in the original work - they were just rather simplistic, overly moralistic stories.
To be honest, it felt like the book was a rough draft of something that was intended to be adapted into a show all along. Good thing it was, I suppose.
