[jewishdragon]

Mushishi (the anime) really asked "do you want to experience The Horrors(TM) while you are rendered immobilized by the stunning visuals and calm atmosphere of the human condition in a fantasy rural japan?" and did not wait for answer

My burnout is back, so I've been looking for shows to binge. In my search I came across an anime with exactly the atmosphere I was craving (thank you to Noralities for her video on iyashikei) and I wanted to share in case it might reach someone else in the midst of January blues.

Mushi-Shi (based on the manga by Yuki Urushibara) is a worldbuilder's dream. The premise begins and ends with the mushi: primitive, ethereal beings that are part of the natural ecosystem. Few can see them, but those who can might take the time to learn their ways and become a mushi-shi or mushi master. The show follows a mushi-shi known as Ginko, who travels across an alternate Japan between the Edo/Meiji periods, offering aid as a mysterious-problem-solver.

Big fan of Ginko here. He kind of reminds me of Aragorn, if you swapped out the sword for a medicine box and the Evenstar for a hand-rolled cigarette. To help people afflicted by the mushi he must often make them come to terms with their own turmoil in a very short timespan, and this he does frankly, yet gracefully, with a good dose of legitimate wisdom. Wish the man was my therapist.

There isn't much of an overarching story, each episode is more or less self-contained. Perhaps not the lightest watch, but it is peaceful and grounding, and rife with beautifully rendered nature.
