Yesterday I watched K-Pop Demon Hunters for the first time. I know, I’m like 6 months late, but I was just not in the mood for something animated when it came out and then it felt like I’d waited too long to hop on the craze. Then the voice artists from the movie sang in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and I realized that the song “Golden” totally slaps, so that convinced me it was time to watch it.
The animation was interesting in that it kind of felt like a cross between Pixar in its drawing style and claymation in its editing style. It reminded me a little bit of Spiderman: Into the Spiderverse in that regard, which was fun. I haven’t been big into K-Pop thus far in my life, so I enjoyed seeing a snippet of that part of pop culture. I also thought the art design for the demons was very cool and felt like it was original.
Most importantly, I thought there were a lot of bangers on the soundtrack. I was kinda surprised that the lyrics were so overtly demon-hunter-y considering they were supposed to be perceived as just pop stars, but I decided to suspend disbelief on that and not let it be my problem.
Overall a fun, easy watch after a long day of work.
Thanks for reading!
