Of those few places not yet under Persona's control is the free town of Kabuki-cho, also known as "The Dark Side of Tokyo". Within the town, under the leadership of a woman named Mai, is a small resistance group called Messiah. Into this world steps a man who takes the sobriquet of Kabuki-cho: Darkside. Sealed up in another dimension eighteen years ago by Persona Century, Darkside now returns to aid Messiah using his unique mystic power of renewal.

| User ReviewWilliam MIncomplete, but well worth anyone's time. Based off of a television serial. |
| User ReviewAaron BThe story's a bit hard to follow, requires a few viewings to grasp what the heck is going on and what the dream treatment is. Buy the Graphic Novel, it helps to understand Darkside better. |
| User ReviewTim BAn extrememly cool film; albeit an incomplete one. Based on a work by Hideyuki Kikuchi, this is a movie that begs for a sequel. Unfortunately, no such sequel ever came. Though confusing, it's an engaging film with a tremendous atmosphere about it. Reccomended. |
| User ReviewIsa OPerhaps one of my favorite, if overly short, animes - the english voiceover, in particular, the old woman, is very well done. The characters are each interesting, and later on, many other anime copied them. An overall dark theme with some deep concepts :-) Enjoyable. |
| User ReviewDavid CFairly typical anime, but beautifully drawn, Darkside Blues is just moody enough to convince the self-serious adolescents who are drawn to anime like water that it's a masterpiece. They're wrong, but who can convince them otherwise? |
| User ReviewJoe BI want to see it again - haven't in a while :P |
