Kino no Tabi is a subtle psychological drama that contemplates human nature through the contrast between its softly painted world and the stark reality of the lives of its inhabitants. Kino's mystery and sensible attitude to travelling across various lands and cultures beckons the viewer to journey along with an open mind.
But if you want flashy action scenes and brightly coloured humor then this series is not for you. It is a more quiet type of entertainment that imparts nuggets of wisdom and inspires a reflective mood.
