Hozuki's Coolheadedness (Japanese: 鬼灯の冷徹, Hepburn: Hōzuki no Reitetsu) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Natsumi Eguchi. The plot revolves around Hozuki, a demon who works for the King and Head Judge of Hell. It was serialized by Kodansha in the magazine Weekly Morning between March 2011 and January 2020, with chapters collected in thirty-one tankōbon volumes. The manga was adapted into a television anime series; Wit Studio produced the first season in 2014, and Studio Deen was responsible for a second season in 2017–2018. The former studio also produced three original animation DVDs (OADs) in 2015, while the latter produced one OAD in 2017, and Pine Jam produced three more OVAs in 2019 and 2020.

The first season was made available to English-speaking audiences through Crunchyroll, which streamed it, and Sentai Filmworks, which licensed the series to be released on DVD. The second season was acquired by Sentai, who released it on home media and made it available through the streaming website Hidive. In Japan, the Hozuki's Coolheadedness manga had over 11 million copies in print as of May 2019. The manga and both seasons of the anime have been featured at various times in weekly top ten lists of best-selling in their respective media on its native country. The first season of the anime has been well received by English-language reviewers, and was usually elected one of the best anime of 2014.

Plot

The story centers on ogre-like demon Hozuki (鬼灯, Hōzuki) who works under King Enma (閻魔大王, Enma-Daiō), the King and Head Judge of Hell who determines what kind of hell the dead will be sent to. The serious-minded Hozuki attempts to manage and troubleshoot unusual problems which occur in the Japanese hell. Two of the most prominent subordinates of Hozuki are Karauri (唐瓜) and Nasubi (茄子). Other people in the hell include Oko (お香, Okō), the chief assistant of Mortal Hell; Peach Maki (ピーチ・マキ, Pīchi Maki), a famous idol in Hell; and Yoshitsune Minamoto (源義経, Minamoto no Yoshitsune), a commander in the Crow-Tengu Police. The main rival of Hozuki is Hakutaku (白澤), a Chinese medicine expert who works at Shangri-La. Hakutaku is assisted by Momotarō (桃太郎), a famous samurai in his days of living. Momotaro's three pets are also regular characters in the series: Shiro (シロ), the dog; Kakisuke (柿助), the monkey; and Rurio (ルリオ), the pheasant.

Production

In 2010, Natsumi Eguchi won the Honorable Mention Award of the 57th Chiba Tetsuya Awards for Hinichijōtekina Nanigenai Hanashi (非日常的な何気ない話, lit. "An unusual casual story"). The character Oni (鬼, lit. "Ogre") of this work was the model to create Hozuki that would first appear in her debut in the Morning's 32nd issue of 2010 with the story Jigoku no Sata to Are ya Kore (地獄の沙汰とあれやこれ, lit. "The State of the Hell, and This and That"). Some time later, after changing its name to Hōzuki no Reitetsu the series started to be serialized in the magazine.[3]

Eguchi developed a sympathy for yōkai manga such as GeGeGe no Kitarō and Akuma-kun because of her parents influence. Their "strange" preferences for these instead of the typical girl's manga or battle manga lead her to declare that she "has been reading only afterworld yōkai books since [she] can remember". The horror-themed The Laughing Salesman and the Japanese folktales-based Manga Nihon Mukashi Banashi [ja] were also series that influenced her. Eguchi attributes this childhood experience to the fact her mother was a classical studies professor, and as such she had access to several mythology and folklore books. One such book was Shigeru Mizuki's compilation of 101 yōkai stories. The influence of the anime adaptation of Mizuki's GeGeGe was highlighted by Eguchi, who appreciated the characters' scary but cute features and their variety through each episode. Other non-horror works also influenced her, including Doraemon, especially the main character's bossy personality in the "insane" manga—as Eguchi dubbed it—as opposed to the educational anime.[3]

All the six compilation of the anime series were featured both on Oricon's weekly chart of the best-selling DVD and Blu-ray, reaching the top 10 in both categories.[f] Its first two volumes were released the same day and they ranked first and second on the DVD list, while they were second and third on the Blu-ray list.[105][106] The first DVD, the fifth Blu-ray and the sixth DVD volumes topped the list.[105][112][113] The first Blu-ray sold over 6,700 copies and the last one sold over 4,700 discs.[106][114] In a survey by Rekochoku with 500 men and women between the ages of 10 and 50, Hozuki's Coolheadedness was voted the best anime that started in January 2014.[115] Asking the same question the site Animeanime.jpg received over 2800 votes, and the anime was the fourth most voted in general, while it was atop among women.[116][117]

The second season of Hozuki's Coolhdeadedness was the fifth most antecipated anime series of Fall 2017 in a poll conducted by Japanese website Charapedia.[118] The second cour of the season also created anticipation among anime fans; it was the third most anticipated anime for Spring 2018 in a poll by another website, Nijimen, and was the most anticipated in Charapedia's survey.[119] Both the first two DVD boxes and the first two Blu-ray boxes of the second season ranked fourth on Oricon's weekly chart of the best-selling animated media.[120][121][122][123] The DVD version sold about 1,000 copies per box,[120][121] while the Blu-ray one sold over 2,000 discs per box.[122][123] The third DVD box charted at number eleven and sold 725 copies.[124] The fourth DVD charted at number three and sold 770 copies, while the fourth Blu-ray charted at number two and sold 1,479.[125][126]

Critical response

The 2012 edition of Takarajimasha's Kono Manga ga Sugoi!, which surveys people in the manga and publishing industry, named Hozuki's Coolheadedness, along with I, the nineteenth best manga series for male readers.[127] In 2012, it was one of the 15 manga nominated for the 5th Manga Taishō and was selected by jury for the 16th Japan Media Arts Festival Awards.[19] The series was nominated for the 38th Kodansha Manga Award for Best General Manga,[128][129] and ranked fifth on the "Book of the Year" by Media Factory's Da Vinci in 2014.[130] It also ranked 25th, 37th, and 47th on Da Vinci's "Book of the Year" in 2018, 2019, and 2020, respectively.[131][132][133]

Several reviewers named Hozuki's Coolheadedness' first season among their favorite anime of 2014 or of that winter season; this include Vichus Smith of Electronic Gaming Monthly,[134] Seb Reid of UK Anime Network,[135] Kelly Quinn of Tor.com,[136] and Amy McNulty and Gabriella Ekens of Anime News Network (ANN).[137][138] Most reviewers pondered over its humor that requires some understanding of Japanese culture, but they ultimately appreciated it.[134][136][137][138][139] Quinn considered it to be one of the most original comedy shows of the year because of its "sadistic humor and bizarre setting".[136] Ekens affirmed that "While not every episode provoked peals of laughter, there was just enough cuteness and cleverness aside to make me love this little show."[138] Reid compared it to Polar Bear Cafe because of its "dry, sarcastic" humor style and "weird" stories, and praised the writing for its peculiar stories and dialogues, as well as its "deadpan acting".[135] Josh Tolentino of Japanator often compared it to Lucky Star for its slow pace.[140][141][142] He commented, "I've heard rumblings in some circles about [the anime] being intensely boring, but I'm having fun so far. It's just really low-key in the way that, say, Dilbert is low-key."[140] Nicoletta Christina Browne of THEM Anime Reviews also found it similar to Dilbert and salaryman manga, especially on the depiction of Hozuki–Enma relation.[139]

ANN's Carl Kimlinger was generally unfavorable; although noted its premise as singular, he criticized its music, characters and "comedic incompetence".[143] He nevertheless praised its sumi-e-inspired visuals, which are "startlingly beautiful at times, and utterly distinctive at all times".[143] Quinn also echoed a similar praise for its visuals,[136] while Tolentino stated "one of this show's best qualities is how it shows off traditional Japanese art".[144] Browne commended the mixture of modern character designs with classic art style that creates a "unique and appealing look", and said that "the animation is generally quite good, if low-key".[139] Kate O'Neil of The Fandom Post also praised it, stating "the animation is quite superb".[145] O'Neil also said, "It's the weird artsy kid sitting in the back row of desks combined with The Office. Many viewers won't get the appeal, but it's always been a fascinating and often funny watch with a great artistic style and well defined personalities."[146]
