Art of Violinist of Hameln

Violinist of Hameln is an animation series produced by Studio Deen and directed by Junji Nishimura in 1996. The anime was based on the homonym manga series created by Michiaki Watanabe. The manga and the anime are very different because the anime removes the majority of the humor from the manga, leaving the darker themes (but never goes as heavy as the manga). The manga also commonly jumps between humor, action, and very dark scenes in a matter of pages, which is something that is not shown in the anime. The pictures on this page are a collection of artworks created for this series and were collected by Settei Dreams, you can download them in high definition HERE
