Personally I think this show is pure kino of the highest order Besides Legend of the Galactic Heroes and Gintama season 29.

Does the new series reach the same level? I don't think so because the art looks soulless.

The other Kino is fucking horrible in comparison.
And yes - Kino is indeed Kino.

Original Kino anime: directed by a revered genius known for his psychological style, earthy unsettling visuals.

Modern reboot: high school harem director with soulless generic colors.

Le sigh.

Truly one of the best shows of all time and one that literally cannot be made today (they tried with the remake, wasn't the same). I think a modern anime that came close was Humanity has Declined (but unfortunately suffers from the same fate as Kino, no real sequel)
