Youkai Ningen Bem: Part II English Sub & Dub

About Youkai Ningen Bem: Part II

Youkai Ningen Bem: Part II arrives as a demons anime by Topcraft (1992), and the premise is easy to summarize. At its core: For 1982 a 26-episode TV series sequel to Youkai Ningen Bem was planned. Because the original producers disbanded, the animation was done by Topcraft.

Also worth knowing: 2 episodes were created and the project shut down without airing on television. The episodes were released to the public on a LD-Box Set a decade later. 2,000 units were printed and all were sold out.

In a demons series like this, atmosphere, sound and restraint do the heavy lifting. It will appeal most to viewers comfortable with dark, unsettling material.
