Disclaimer: I have watched the first 6 or 7 seasons of the live-action series, which I genuinely loved, so this fact may bias my review in one way or another.

✔ Positive Aspects ✔
◧ The quality of the animation is typical of any Madhouse production, low saturated colors, with that trademark lack of vibrancy – nothing overly enticing, but not too shabby either.
◧ Personally, I adore the concept of this series that’s why I actually made the decision to watch this series. To anyone who loves dark fantasy/action/seinen anime but who’s nonetheless unfamiliar with the live-action series, this anime series is right on his alley.
◧ Probably the strongest aspect of the show was its character dev…

Before starting, we are very fans of the TV series. We recommend to see it 'cause is very amazing. When the first time we watched it. we've said "yeah,Looks amazing". Okay. Then, This animation is only the first season of the tv series. So, we felt like writing a review about it. for first thing, we are so happy that Supernatural to be an Animation serie. The story is about Dean and Sam, two brothers who hunts demons and evil spirits and here, there's a lot brotherly love. Sam and Dean are not perfect and flawless superheroes, they are normal persons.They can make mistakes, they can be paranoid, confused or angry and they always argue with each other. Because of that, they are so realistic. the best of Supernatural The Animation are definitely the story full of unexpected situations and th…

Because I had never seen Supernatural I thought this would be a good way to at least get the gist of the show. I actually really liked it and I don't know how much of the show it actually covers but the animation is done really well and I was a little disappointed that there was only 22 episodes. I could easily watch the entirety of Supernatural in this format, I also watched it in the English Dub which I know at least Jared Padalecki voiced his character Sam. Although, if the series ever did continue I am well aware that having the original actors for the character's voice them for the entirety of the anime would be unlikely as it would take up a lot of time so I'm glad that the episodes that were made were voiced by him. Overall, I really enjoyed it and I feel like it was still intense a…

I quite enjoyed this anime adaptation of the Supernatural series. The series take place over the span of the first two seasons of the original show, including animated remakes of fan-favourite episodes as well as completely new episodes. There were some episodes, such as 'Moonlight' that I found didn't quite work as well, but this could be excused by the difference in episode length (the original series being 40 minute episodes compared with the animated 20 minute episodes).
Jared was the voice of Sam for all 22 episodes of the series, however Jensen only voiced Dean in the final two episodes. Despite this, I found the actor who voiced Dean for most of the English dub did a good job.
The fact that the series was animated also allowed for the show to take some of the stories further. Some…

As many of you are already well-aware, Supernatural is one hell of a series and for those who know it, seen it, love it I believe the animation is also worth seeing. But for the sake of a fair review, I'll try not to compare it (-much-I do compare it) with the original series.
So, the story is definitely interesting. Two brothers hunting down all kinds of monsters thought to be just fictions of mythology and legends does sound appealing. The series includes remakes of the original episodes and anime-only episodes, too. As far as the latter is concerned, I believe they fitted with the original series. But the 22 episodes just wasn't enough to explain the plot thoroughly. Many questions arise and, honestly, I am not sure if I would understand the story so well if I was not familiar with the…

Well.. This is my first review. Sorry if I lose your time. I just finished Supernatural The Animation and felt like writing a review about it. It is from these kind of series that you can't say whether it is good or not from seeing only the first episode.
STORY - 8 (Very Good)
To begin with, I should say that the plot surprised me a little bit because I had heard about it from the original TV series and expected to see demons, monsters and bloody things everywhere (which does not bother me anyway). It was far better than this, though. But there is something strange - if there are hell creatures (devils and demons), there should be some heavenly creatures to oppose them (gods and angels) or things like that.
However, I really loved the other part of the plot. The two brothers who always…

"If there's something strange, in the neighborhood, who you gonna call?"
Bad news everyone, your parents lied to you (it's OK, mine did too). The Boogeyman does exist, there are things that go bump in the night, and yes, there probably was a monster living in your closet when you were a kid. No worries though, for when the bumps in the night start to get a little louder (don't get out of the car you fool!), you've got somebody watching your back to send the creatures of the night back to their holes in the ground. Sam and Dean Winchester, brothers who have faced it all: ghosts and vampires, werewolves and shapeshifters, witches and demons, even cannibalistic killers clowns (better watch you back IT). Based on the (fairly) popular American television series, Supernatural: The Animation isn…

This is a creepy show. Having not seen the live-action show before, I don’t know if it does justice to the show or not but I have to say, I really like it any way and it does make me want to see the original show. The episodes all have to do with someone dying in a gruesome way, then the brothers’ end up being at the right place at the right time. Each show is its own storyline without many things to link them together. The story is slow, and not really action orientated. Many of the shows act more like detective shows where something odd happens and they discover why only to have a small action scene at the end. There is a larger mystery that they have in this show about the brothers trying to find their Dad.
The art style is rather interesting, almost a cross between anime and American…

Before starting, I should note that I am a fan of the TV series, but I will review the anime as a standalone piece. I will put myself in the shoes of someone, who has never heard of Supernatural and evaluate its merits and faults from there.
Story: 7/10
The story is simple and easy to follow. It is about Sam and Dean, two brothers who hunt demons and evil spirits. Most of the episodes are following the “monster of the week” formula… but there is a general plotline that advances slowly throughout the series. There is also a main villain and the Winchester brothers have a personal score to settle with him. Unfortunately, there are a few filler episodes with weak story and unoriginal enemies.
Characters: 9/10
The personalities and the interaction between the two brothers makes the differen…
