About Barom One

Meet Barom One (バロムワン), an action, sci-fi and supernatural anime by E&G Films (2002). Here is the premise in a nutshell. What the story covers: Takeshi Kido and Kentaro Shiratori are a pair of companions who have been together for almost their entire life. One night, an odd being comes out from the lake and sets off attacking them.

As things develop, when Takeshi and Kentaro are almost eliminated, a strange being named Kopu calls them and tells them that they are the chosen ones to inherit the ability to protect the realm from an evil being named Goumon. Now, they join their hands to transform into Barom One, a being with superior skills, who will confront to protect the town.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Maaya Sakamoto as Yoshiko Kido and Naomi Kusumi as Rintarou Kido. If you count yourself among viewers who like fast, high-impact fights, put it on your list. At 13 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.
