English Dub Review: Call of the Night “13th Night: Call of the Night”

Overview:

The night feels distant. Ko isn’t sure how to close that gap.

Our Take:

I was not looking forward to this one ending and now it looks like that is for multiple reasons. On one hand, I really enjoyed it and didn’t want to see it end. On the other hand, it felt like a disjointed ending and SHOULDN’T end where it did. This was another one where I wanted more and it feels like a lot of plotlines were left hanging. I was a bit worried when they introduced the vampire hunter/detective only a couple of episodes ago. One of my favorite arcs from the manga wasn’t even touched on yet so I feel like this one could have benefitted from a two cour run.

Having said all that I really enjoyed my time with Call of the Night and I think that’s the important part. The characters were fun and the animation was top-notch. Not to mention the voice work was fantastic. I would say the biggest praise I can give is also one of the bigger issues I have with the show. I want another season and want to see more of Ko and friends because as it stands now it feels like the night was just getting started.
