Karas (øf£­KARAS£­, Karasu?, lit. The Raven) is a six-part original video animation of the henshin genre (a kind of Japanese superhero). Tatsunoko Production produced it to commemorate its 40th anniversary of anime production. Each Karas episode was first televised in Japan as a pay-per-view program from March 25, 2005, to August 3, 2007, before being released onto DVDs. Manga Entertainment compiled and released these episodes as two feature length, direct-to-DVD films for the English market.

Karas tells the story of Otoha, a former yakuza, living in a fictional version of Shinjuku, Tokyo populated by humans and y¨­kai (Japanese spirits). He is one of the titular karas, humans appointed as superpowered agents of the land. Able to transform into a car, an aircraft, and an armored crusader; the skilled swordsman is to stop his corrupt predecessor, Eko, from taking over Tokyo. Supporting characters such as Eko’s former henchman, Nue; the y¨­kai; and Homura, the karas of another city, help Otoha in his quest. A concurrent side story focuses on humans affected by Eko’s scheme.

Karas won the Best Original Video at the 2006 Tokyo Anime Award competition, and most reviewers were impressed with the images produced by fusing 2D and 3D art techniques. The story presents themes on the conflicts between cultural traditions and modern society, and the relationship between people. Reviewers, however, found its presentation was too confusing to follow; several of them felt it worsened the show by detracting from the strength of its art.



Karas is the title for the city’s appointed agents. Capable of transforming into automobiles and aircraft,[5] they are suits of armor animated by human souls infused into them through Yurine’s chanting of a Shinto prayer.[6] Director Sato told his animators to enhance the karas' dark nature by drawing their faces in shadows. Fight scenes involving karas take place mostly in dark settings shrouded with steam or lit with spotlights. Animators touched up film frames by hand, creating an effect different from cel-shaded animation.[20] To make the karas more menacing, they highlighted the eyes as if light bulbs were shining through them, a technique inspired by the suitmation practice of using light bulbs for the eyes of costumes.[21] Producer Takaya Ibira (ÒÁƽ ³çÒ®, Ibira Takaya?) explained the presence of ravens in Tokyo and the Tower of London, inspired him and Sato to model the agents of the city after them. He stated ravens are believed to be omens of good and bad in superstitions, and they always seem to be watching over the cities. This resonated with his view of the raven in the story Noah’s Ark, which cursed Noah as it scouted for land. The presence of ravens all over Tokyo led Ibira to notice the same of cats and conceive the Yurines as catgirls.[2]

One thing I will say about Karas, is that he is a lot like A Shinigami (Soul Reaper BLEACH) in the fact that his sword cuts the spirit and not the body, so Supes physical defense to attacks may not help him. On a side note Karas is basicly the will of any given city, so evey city has one. And a Yuri which summons the Karas
