Blue Sonnet English Sub & Dub

About Blue Sonnet

If you are hunting for a new action series, Blue Sonnet (紅い牙 ブルーソネット) deserves a look (1989). The setup goes like this. At its core: Sonnet is a cyborg/esper from a harsh background and now trained to be the ultimate warrior and most mighty weapon in the realm. She is sent to Japan to watch Komatsuzaki Lan, who is thought to be controlled by the rage of the esper Akai Kiba (Crimson Fang).

Another thread: Lan is a quiet girl who knows she's different from everybody else and sets off to show signs of Crimson Fang after coming into contact with Sonnet. In the course of fighting with Lan, Sonnet starts to rediscover her humanity. At the same time Lan has to confront to retain her humanity and control the Crimson Fang.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Wataru Komatsuzaki (Nozomu Sasaki) and Sonnet Barge (Hiromi Tsuru) are two of the characters you will meet early. This one is best suited to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. At 5 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Mushi Production and AIC, which means the visual identity of Blue Sonnet follows that studio's craft. The action focus matters here: fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 5.8/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. Voice casting, including Nozomu Sasaki as Wataru Komatsuzaki, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. Released in 1989, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
