Otogi Zoshi

Has any one seen Otogi Zoshi? I watched the trailer and read the reviews on ANN but am not sure if it will be worth the buy? Any ideas on the show?

it's an okay show
just a little weird though
the first half of the series is set in Heian-Era Japan while the second half is set in modern Japan and features reincarnations of the main characters from the first half
it's weird and the second half isn't as good as the first one
the first is just filled with adventure and samurai and is just great
while the second half is more about mystery and about old folklore
in the end of it all, it's about reincarnation, yin and yang, and a bunch of other things that I forget... (haven't seen it in a while)
the animation's nice
Production I.G always does a good job, though their only "flaw" is that the characters don't have much emotion compared to other companies like BONES
you can actually feel for the characters in BONES anime like Wolf's Rain and FmA
Production I.G on the other hand, well... yeah...
the music's good though
the intro, "ZEN", is done by ATTACK HAUS
here's the opening; check it out... [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33TZbMKWQNg ]

nonetheless, it's all good
it's a decent anime
though the transition between the two parts isn't that great...
but it's decent
I guess I'd rate it a 7 out of 10
but it could've been better...

What timing. Just got it today. Looks great and it better be, considering it's from Production IG.
