not only was this anime of the season, I think it's currently anime of the year and one of the best works of art I've seen in this medium.

23:15 final thoughts on the episode. Let me know what you thought!

FURIOUS The Hip-Hop Sommelier

This show lost me when it had the girls perform a concert in episode 5, which had no real context and made no in-world sense, and then ignored the fact that a crowd in this setting just heard teenage girls make the noises of distorted heavy metal. I get that it isn’t aiming for realism, yet good shows know when its showing something bravura and stylistic to the audience at home, as this show did with the animation changes to the lead to make him look slippery, like a duck, and when it’s having an impact in-world. The duck is interpretive. It re-describes something already in the scene. A man is being slimy; the show renders him as a sneaky animal. Nothing new enters the world. And the reference comes from a pool the character already owns. She has seen sneaky animals. The image could have come out of her head. The distorted vocal is generative. It puts a new object into the world that has no source in the world. Nobody made it before. Nobody had heard it. It isn't a re-description of anything; it is the thing itself. My grievance isn’t that the writing team broke the rules. It's that they won't say what the rules are, so i can't tell whether i just watched something happen or watched something described. Thats the height of bad writing. Great shows shouldn’t penalise one for thinking more deeply about them. This does. I can give many other examples. It’s your show of the season and I find it very hard to care about. And if you let a show like this get away with not explaining the rules it’s gonna be hard to care about any objections to other shows that do not know their own internal logic or don’t explain the rules. Proof that we live in an age of cozy anime that is praised for how it looks vague character liability and story structure doesn’t matter. If people criticise a show the defense these days is ‘it just needed more episodes or a second season’ not it needed competent writing. But I can agree that this might be the show of the season to half pay attention to while you do household chores.

Glad to see you stuck through with this one to the end, when so many other reactors didn’t even try to give it a chance! I’ll be honest, it took a few episodes to really grab my attention in the beginning, but the entire back half of the series ended up being a satisfyingly crazy ride. Would be great to see it get a second season, but even if that doesn’t happen, it was still well-worth the time spent 🧡

Personally, I can agree that episode 6 (the one with the concert) was probably the weakest one in the series, simply because it’s the only one that I would consider to be filler, in the sense that you could easily go straight from the reveal of Seiroku-bot in episode 5 to the runaway chase in episode 7 without really losing a whole lot of the main story. But, if one specific detail about microphone filters is enough to ruin an entire series for you, you may need to unclench a bit. Just saying.

...except it wasn't a specific detail about microphone filters was it? I see you didn't comprehend my argument and decided to trivialise and insult me, which is fine. If you don 't care about integrity of storytelling, that's fine. I doubt you could clench if buggered. I can give you many other examples of bad writing throughout the series by would I yuck your yum? You can't take negative feedback on a seldom-seen comments page without taking a swipe to make yourself important. In the spirit of friendliness though, KyoAni do better work in Myriad Color Phantoms World. Steamboy (2004 film, Katsuhiro Ōtomo) is the most literal Sparks match. A boy inventor holds a steam device that a corporate foundation wants to turn into a weapon. It lays out the "who owns progress" argument that Sparks only gestures at with Mizoe. Moyashimon (2007, Shirogumi / Telecom). This is the sake-brewery pick. It's a farming-college comedy about a student who can see microbes, and it's built around fermentation. Brewing gets real, specific attention, which Sparks mostly leaves as backdrop for Inako.

the wedded rocks were a great choice to show the direction before the "wedding clothes" imagery
