"The Lost Village's" interesting hypothesis suggests that despite the warnings, things will not become all too well for the 30 heroes. The story will focus on the 30 young men and women aboard a bus tour heading to a most likely nonexistent community in Nanaki, where one can "redo" his life based on a number of beliefs.
While "The Lost Village" Episode 1 introduces the player to every character, it also centered on the more strange ones. The 30 heroes introduced themselves, ranging from a phony rapper to a dying woman. Everyone has a reason for heading to Nanaki like the mess they have created in their lives and boredom, though some chose not to talk about their reasons.
The mystery surrounding Nanaki is a powerful one, according to Anime News Network. It is a village that no one has ever found yet, where young people can go to correct some mistakes in their lives. However, the bus driver appears to have a homicidal tendency, which means he is not good for an ally.
The tour guide, on the other hand, shows some classic cultish behavior while leading the 30 characters through some creepy games and songs, like the one regarding the unfortunate dying hippo and a strange game where the young ones are asked on the spot to think of torture to be implemented.
It is not difficult to explain the levels of threats, but there is no concrete proof about Nanaki's mystery. The majority of the episode is seen through the friendly kid Mitsumune and discovers some visions which frighten him, though it is not quite easy to get attached to the different characters. Nonetheless, the focal mystery is interesting enough to keep everyone from wanting some more.
As for the background music that seems like a bad sounding video game, it is extremely synthetic that needs to be noticed. The hypothesis is interesting enough despite the dull and inoffensive execution. It provides a compelling mystery which offers several opportunities to make some character analysis. This can either be memorable or an entirely forgettable experience, depending on where the story heads to.
"The Lost Village" can be live streamed every Friday on Crunchyroll at 6:30 PM EST.
