This was fine to pass time with. The Russian thing wasn't more than a gimmick. Got old pretty quick actually.

Final episode already.

This entire anime didn't go the way I thought it would at all. It's wild to look back at the 1st few eps to see where it started with really mundane stuff. It was really interesting to see it progress the way it did. Kobato's past is more or less clear, but Osanai is still a mystery to me, though it's clear that despite her timid appearance, she's quite ruthless.

Now that they've gone their separate ways, I'm very curious where this'll go. Thankfully, a 2nd season is already announced. Sadly, we'll have to wait until Spring 2025 for it.

Even though the vast majority of anime take place in a school of sorts, the setting for Makeine still feels pretty unique and this episode solidified that feeling for me. The school feels much more alive. Previously I felt this way because it's not a pristine looking school, it actually kinda looks rundown at times, like it's been there for a long time in a small town and the student body that's not the main cast seems to have a lot of personality. This episode added a school festival that is not the bog standard festival. From what we've seen, there's so many actually creative ideas. Not just a simple haunted house and a maid café for example, but a really cool literary exhibition about food with activities for children, and short plays at various locations throughout the school. It feels much more intentionally crafted instead of just the cliché 'school festival' because it's a school setting.

That looks fun

You might be right, but you know, the end doesn't justify the means and all that

Time to deck someone again

That was actually properly mean, underhanded and low of Suou, holy shit.

So sad this is US only

The exhibit idea is actually really cool and creative, even if it started from Yanami's 'want food'.

Also, that school nurse is fucked up lol

Oof, that look away from Masachika's mother was brutal

Idk, I personally don't think it's fair to throw a hissyfit about it when they don't even bother making it available, especially since the monetary damages are negligable. They're not losing customers when they never had them.

Agreed on the Ryuji part. Makoto seemed to do it more because he thought they wouldn't remain friends otherwise.

Regarding Aoi, I do feel like Makoto has slowly been getting attracted to her, romantically.

I feel like nhentai listened to DMCA requests when they occurred didn't they? I thought many FAKKU titles weren't available for that reason.

Wotakoi, Black Lagoon, Baccano (I think?), 91 Days, Akudama Drive, Golden Kamuy, Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens, ID: Invaded, Dragon Maid, Spice and Wolf, Wave Listen To Me! to name a couple

Cool idea, but honestly, I'd rather CR keeps to distribution

I try to avoid anything Amazon as much as possible, but I guess I legally can't with this one

Just leave it be. Edgerunners was amazing, but it's done. Let's not turn it into a milk cow.

Man, I love the characters in this anime. They're all quite... excentric, but in an actually fun way instead of over the top and annoying. Also, sick new ED

Not sure about the consensus, but I'm really enjoying it.

As a software tester, this is too real
