Kino no Tabi – Kino's Journey: The Beautiful World (2017)
The first anime based on the book was released in 2003; I already talked about it. And then a friend told me that they decided to adapt it again.
It’s wonderful. I can say, comparing the repeating plot arcs (there are three of them), that the new series is still slightly worse than the old one, but it’s still the same heroine, the same motorcycle, and the same interesting, contrasting, and diverse world. Most of the plots from the first series were missing, and I was interested to see these new adventures; they all definitely touch you. Even the episodes that were re-shot don’t cause feelings of boredom or “I’ve seen this before” – not at all. Firstly, they were chosen wisely because without them, the series wouldn’t be complete (and you can only say this about these episodes). Secondly, they are still good. And it was also interesting to compare them with the 2003 version.
In general, it’s very, very good. 8.5/10
