Neither good nor evil, they are life in its purest form. Vulgar and strange, they have inspired fear in humans since the dawn of time and have, over the ages, come to be known as "mushi." The stories of the Mushi and the people they affect are all linked together by a traveling Mushi-shi, or "Mushi Master," who seeks rare Mushi sightings and uses his shaman-like knowledge of Mushi to help the affected people.

A meditation on nature and life. And how Mushishi became my favorite anime.

Mushi-shi is the product of an idea that pays homage to nature and those who live in the splendour of simplicity.

Depicts the human condition at a profound level. Creating a story of authentic vulnerability rarely seen in media.

Mushishi is a show that unquestionably falls in the "otherworldly" class. Masterpiece of an anime

"The world is full of life unknown to man" as the pillar of this introspective and meditative anime.
