Working through it, and it's great. It's like someone read up on biology and ecosystems, and merged it with their own take on Japanese mythology.

If I had to compare it with something else, it would be Kino's Journey. And it's quite a bit better than that. But while they hit similar tones, the way they go about it are different: Kino's Journey is cold and almost anthroplogical, while Mushi-Shi is more conventional and warm and personal. Kino deals with people as metaphors for society, Ginko deals with people as individuals.

I'd have a hard time saying one is better than the other. Love them both.
