In the world of anime, the fantasy genre is known to lean towards action or political drama. But Agents of the Four Seasons takes a different approach as it chooses to focus on myth and emotion. Addtionally the creator has done a phenomenal job in also incorporating emotional storytelling. This anime has a chance to stand out because the narrative continues to give importance to talking about loneliness, love, and duty.

Making Hinagiku return is not just a simple plot device, as the creator is trying to use her character as a symbol of healing after her absence. It teases fans with the idea that a single individual suffering has the potential to suspend an entire season, and it is portrayed in a way in which we see a deeply personal dimension.

Moreover, the anime adaptation of Agents of the Four Seasons has a strong cast lineup and a production house that shows promise to bring the story to life; it has all the ingredients pointing towards becoming a standout seasonal anime. The upcoming anime season has many classic shows making a comeback, and this title will have to fight for its position, but looking at the trailer, it is undeniable that it definitely has a chance to leave a lasting impression on the anime community.
