The show Divine Gate is an original creation that aired on Tokyo MX from 2016. It's a chimeric fusion of fantasy, action, and sci-fi genres that deftly explores themes of human desires, determination, and dread of unknown realms.

The story of Divine Gate hinges on the eponymous portal, which is a mystic entity said to be the fulcrum of the world's balance. Rumors swirl around this obscure, mythic gate, stating that it has the power to grant wishes, to rewrite the past, or project a vision of the future. Its potential allure wraps the whole world in a shroud of anticipation mixed with fear.

Society, to maintain its stability, constructs an organization known as the "World Council," assigned to keep tighter reigns on the Gate’s antics, and their handpicked elite warriors, known as "Adapters," ensure that the chaotic power of the Divine Gate remains in check. Each Adapter has a unique supernatural ability endowed by "divine cells" within them, making their role in maintaining global equilibrium critical.

The eccentric ensemble of Divine Gate mainly revolves around three novice Adapters. Our protagonists' paths cross rather abruptly - Aoto, a sullen boy enveloped with a deeply profound sense of guilt and an intertwined past with the Divine Gate; Midori, a girl striving to preserve her optimistic attitude amidst a convoluted world; and Akane, a high-spirited teenager driven by a fervent sense of justice. As they are gradually drawn into the enigmatic realm of the Divine Gate, their past traumas, buried secrets, and evolving friendships underpin the narrative. The ensemble of characters, while differing in idiosyncrasies, all reflect varying elements of human empathies and endure individual struggles and transformations.

While the sprawling metropolis in which they live seems to be starkly divided into engrossingly dystopian and vividly colorful, luminescent fragments, the show delightfully strays beyond the boundaries of the normalcy eliciting an ever-present aura of fantasy. The boundaries between the real world, the celestial dimension, and the cybernetic zone are tantalizingly murky, concocting a mystifying atmosphere.

The art style of Divine Gate meshes seamlessly with the storyline’s ethos. The character designs diverge from the standard archetypes seen in many anime shows, embodying a distinct adornment of characters, each infused with a color palette reflecting their personal aura and underlining their unique emotional landscapes. The vividly contrasting shades, scintillating landscapes, and intricate details add depth and beauty to the storyline, and the dramatic set pieces perfectly encapsulate the tone of the anime.

When it comes to the auditory dimension of Divine Gate, the melodic score deftly imbues the on-screen events with an extra layer of emotional texture. From heartbreaking ballads that accentuate the protagonists’ past tragedies to the high-octane action sequences, the music never fails to complement individual scenes. The audio-visual synchronization pulsates with life on screen, bringing a vibrant, almost tangible atmosphere to the narrative.

The plot weaves elements of mythology and folklore into its narrative, making it a cocktail of the contemporary and traditional. We see influences from various mythologies, ranging from Nordic to Japanese, and these incorporate a worldwide mythological appeal, providing a global feel to the spectacle. These folkloric foundations and modern fascinations are expertly interwoven to craft an entirely new and enthralling universe.

Peppered throughout the series are numerous skirmishes, which are filled with brilliantly choreographed movements and fluid animation, making them a feast for the eyes. The mechanics behind every battle sequence is a thoughtful amalgamation of strategy, quick-thinking, and skill, and each fight is as entertaining as it is pivotal for the progression of the storyline.

Divine Gate presents an array of thought-provoking themes like guilt, redemption, the concept of fate, and the quest for personal identity, to name a few. Each episode delves deeper into these themes, encapsulated within a fantastical narrative of a wish-granting gate, providing moments of introspection for characters and viewers alike.

With its enchanting fusion of fantasy with sprawling urban landscape, its outsized mythological overtones, its colorful cast of characters each with their unique struggles and powers, and its mishmash of tragedy, action, and life-affirming friendship, Divine Gate weaves an intricate tale that straddles the divide between despair and hope, fantasy and reality, past and future.

Divine Gate is a series categorized as a new series. Spanning 1 seasons with a total of 12 episodes, the show debuted on 2016. The series has earned a mostly poor reviews from both critics and viewers. The IMDb score stands at 4.9.
