Yumeji was a boy who could see the auras of people's dreams.
He was also haunted by nightmares about being hunted by dream demon in the
shape of a cat. Fortunately he was saved by Merry, a girl who could enter
people's dreams. The reason is that she comes from the dream world and enters
into a contract with Yumeji so they could fight dream demons and find a way for
Merry to get home.
Dream Eater Merry is a thirteen episode shonen show that
seems to be a hybrid of a magical girlfriend type of show and a more action
oriented shonen show. This causes it to be a bit pale as both genres are concerned.
While it doesn't lose itself in fan service or harem antics the show's
relationships are a bit thin. On the other hand there are no tournament arcs or
an ungodly amount of characters to remember but the action scenes are rather
mediocre.
In fact serviceable but not outstanding is pretty much a
fitting description for almost any facet of this show. It is a decent show with
decent characters and a decent plot that you can't really put your finger on
but makes you feel like you watched something just like it before.
Overall Dream eater merry might have a picture of it next to
the word mediocre but at least it is somewhat entertaining.
Rating the bronze Jewel shard (Inu Yasha) for being a decent but unremarkable monster hunting shonen show.
