English Dub Review: Ningen Fushin: Adventurers Who Don’t Believe in Humanity Will Save the World “The Legend of the Labyrinth City – Stepping Man?!”

Overview:

The Survivors head into the worst parts of the city to track down a mysterious kidnapper.

Our Take:

Finally, we get back to the group as a whole. It feels like it’s been so long since they last all took a task together. What was interesting about this is how it felt like they were chasing an urban legend that ended up being real. I think the characters in this have been slow to build but are starting to get there. I’ve especially come to enjoy how Tiana is not at all like what I expected her to be like, she’s out here smoking a pipe like Gandalf the Grey or something.

The only thing negative I have to say about this one is that it doesn’t really resolve the “Stepping Man” plot point so perhaps that will become a thing as we move forward. This is interesting because I would say that so far they have resolved most of their plots in one episode. The character that ended up being the “Stepping Man” wasn’t exactly a surprise but I will say that the power they demonstrated did impress me. I hope that we get to see more of that particular character moving forward and maybe some resolution on why they were kidnapping people.
