lol, I'm loving all of your reactions so far. Since I've given you so many thought provoking animes to react to, I should probably recommend something lighter next time haha.

The interesting part about the narrative is how everything seems so planned out. Sort of like Hunter X Hunter, where the audience reactions are calculated into the progression of the plot. Furuichi's development has been foreshadowed since episode 1 and it has always been contrasted with Haru even during their sparring scene introduction. On the other hand, Akiyuki's introduction showed us 2 things: broken family and his father's moral lesson, "keep thinking!". We know from episode 1 that Akiyuki's journey would be about the idea of contemplating life. IMO, this is a masterpiece ion every way.

Interesting part about Raigyou's character is that we're conditioned to be both charmed and annoyed slightly by him. The rivalry Akiyuki feels towards him is kinda childish and we the audience is made to empathise with that childishness. He's the senpai character like Daguza + Gilboa + Captain from Unicorn Gundam. Guys who have been in the same situation for longer and are there to guide the protagonist along. His dialogue with Madame Tenshin and Nakiami also furthers along the whole mystery about the xam'ds.

Side Note: I've always loved the nicknames that Madame Tenshin gave the crewmembers/visitors. Nakiami is "cloud rider" and Raigyou is "the wind that stirs the water". It's so meaningful and captures these characters perfectly. I wonder what would Akiyuki's nickname be lol. I forgot whether or not she already gave Isshu "captain" her nickname yet, but it's also super meaningful.
