Historical anime with fantasy elements Mushishi not only invented a fantasy magical world, but it also created an era between eras. Believed to exist for some time somewhere between the Meiji and Edo periods, the historical anime Mushishi recreates Japan as a world containing mushroom-like life forms that change people upon contact with them.Fans often comment on the special nature of Ginko's hair and outfits: it seems that Ginko does not belong to the era that he has passed, but he may come from the future. The essence of a historical anime like Mushishi is not to confirm such theories in any way, but the sense of timelessness throughout the series is one of its many strengths.
