According to their will of avenging the homicide of their lord, three brave orphans live in San Simon, Mexico, where they have been raised by a master of martial arts, who after the homicide of their master on the hands of criminals, they go in a high journey to avenge his homicide, making solidarity with an investigator, what challenges them, as they wind up engaged with a universe of homicide and wrongdoing.
Following the breadcrumb trail is half the fun; the rest is taking in the good old-fashioned pulp and action unfold, rooting for the underdog orphans to prevail.
They did the best they can to deliver a quality, stylistic series to their target demographic: fans of exploitation and anime. If you're a fan of Machete or Ninja Scroll, you will love Seis Manos.
It's a show that matures and blossoms before your very eyes. And, by the end, you'll be clamoring for more. I was delighted to have stuck with it to discover a real diamond in all that rough.
Seis Manos is balanced in such a way that it's sure to keep you around and fully invested throughout. An intriguing mystery keeps you going, and it quickly becomes clear that each character has layers of depth you wouldn't expect to see.
It's both very profane and violent, but amid all the fighting and action, the show skillfully interweaves important feminist historical events in Mexico. That accuracy is just one of the show's many displays of its creators' thoughtfulness.
