Tekkon Kinkreet: An Anime Masterpiece

This is one of those animations which deserve to be called a masterpiece. Directed by Michael Arias and animation by Studio 4°C, the movie depicts the great balance between two opposites and how two very different people can compliment each other.

Tekkon Kinkreet gives beautiful and rich story of friendship and humanity. It has embodied some of society’s realities such as dependence, love, friendship, poverty, chaos and a lot more. The story revolves around two street urchins– one named Kuro (Black) and the other Shiro (White). While Kuro can be considered to be heartless and cruel, Shiro is the very essence of innocence. They gave one another what the other lacks. Kuro gave Shiro a sense of protection and shelter while Shiro gave Kuro a hold onto humanity. Shiro needed Kuro to survive the chaotic Treasure Town while Kuro needed Shiro to keep himself from being a monster of destruction.

Tekkon Kinkreet may not be appropriate for very young people because of the movie’s violence and depth but animation wise, Tekkon Kinkreet offers very commendable graphics. The contrasting colors are very eye catching. In fact, I can see Naruto’s style in the animation.
