About Supernatural: The Anime Series

Here is what Supernatural: The Anime Series (スーパーナチュラル・ザ・アニメーション) is about, retold in plain terms: an action, horror and mystery anime by MADHOUSE (2011). The premise: The anime re-imagining of the original live-action series follows the Winchester brothers Sam and Dean as they hunt creatures and other supernatural phenomena across the American landscape. The anime covers the storyline of the live-action version's first two seasons as well as original episodes.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Hiroki Touchi as Dean Winchester and Makoto Tsumura as Sam Winchester.

It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. The run is 22 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.

Production & Appeal

Animation is handled by MADHOUSE, so the studio's house style defines how Supernatural: The Anime Series looks and moves on screen. Because it leans on action, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 6.4/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. On the casting side, Hiroki Touchi voicing Dean Winchester gives the lead role a recognizable voice. Released in 2011, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
