A classic story that doesn't bore you. It's a typical shounen style but it's an original shounen. Flame of Recca is somewhat like a refined version of Yu Yu Hakusho with its story well thought out and its characters well developed. Not a single character plays an unimportant role in the story. Each contribute in their own way to the storyline. The dialogue is kept at a reasonable length, not too long and not boring. The anime follows closely with the manga though slightly adapted. There are is some comic relief to lighten the mood at critical times(though it's not really that funny). There's a lot of action going on with different fights and techniques. There's also a lot of positive messages throughout the story coming from the protagonists. I recommend this anime to people new to anime and those who are seasoned and haven't watched it yet. You won't be disappointed. (show less)
