In the final story, it becomes more of the bond between two human men, one of whom is the creator of the hybrid child.

The three stories effectively show the bonds between humans and their hybrid child. In this anime, we are given three stories of their owners loving their Hybrid Child. The hybrid child is a doll that grows older when their owner shows him (because the dolls we are shown in the anime are, of course, male due to the yaoi aspect) love. Having just finished the OVAs for the third time already, you can pretty much tell I enjoyed it, though I'm not really sure if enjoy is the right term, as the story is a true 'tear jerkier' Nevertheless, among all the other shounen ai/Yaoi series out there, Hybrid Child, is indeed a special one and you couldn't go wrong watching it, whether you were a Yaoi fan or not, because you will be swept away by the beauty of the story and relationships this show offers.Ĭould you love a doll long enough to watch it grow up like a normal human? They are easy to relate to characters and I believe you'd come to like them all. There wasn't any annoying characters or ones you would hate or dislike. The characters are a very strong point of this show. The ost was appropriate as well and the seiyuus were all amazing.Īlthough the characters were, in certain aspects, very similar to Nakamura-sensei's other works, they still have their own backgrounds and stories to tell. The OVAs have no opening, only an ending which goes well with the overall mood of the show. As for the quality of the art, it's actually better than SIH and JR. A Major flaw is that all characters have the same face XD But It's not a major problem for me because I'm pretty much used to it. If you've watched Sekaiichi Hatsukoi and Junjou Romantica then you will be familiar with the art style. The best story has to be the third that tell the story of the maker of the hybrid child, I spent the last two episodes in tears really.Īll in all, the stories were nice and though they were short we learned enough about the characters and their back-stories. the second story wasn't as good, but as it progressed a bit I sympathized more with the characters. The first one was a good start to the show, I found it very sweet and it brought tears to my eyes.

The show focuses on three different stories that are not connected to each other, each one of them tell us more about the relationships between men and their The story is somehow different, I'm used to yaoi being placed in a much lighter atmosphere so hybrid child presented a pleasantly different feel than the other shows.

It really hasn't been long since I've been into the whole 'Yaoi/shounen ai' fandom, but so far I've became a dedicated fan, having gone as far as reading/watching almost every manga/anime/ova the fandom has to offer, and among them, 'Hybrid Child' holds a special place in my heart.
