2 minutes and 30 seconds recap just after two episodes is an interesting choice, though I had an impression that in this case it was necessary for the story's progression. I don't mind it, since I've been enjoying this season a lot, but I hope recaps won't become a frequent occasion.
Ciel reliving his trauma was painful to watch. The contrast with the previous light-hearted episode is shocking, but not surprising, as we've already seen the signs of something ominous creeping in. I love how masterfully Kuroshitsuji oscillates between humorous and tragic moments.
The tension of this episode had me on the edge of my seat. I felt sorry for Urino first, he's definitely being played, but he became so full of himself that I actually want Osanai to crush him. This time she gives off strong Moriarty vibes right from the start, though I still think the one responsible for those fires is Hiya. I doubt he's innocent. After all, he's the one who led Urino to this case and encouraged him throughout.
My personal favourite is Yotsuiro Biyori. It was such a delight to watch. I also enjoyed Kakuriyo a lot, glad it's getting season 2 this fall.
Very much enjoyed the comedic direction of this episode, from cutting Kazamatsuri's scream to the whole dinner table scene. Looking forward to all the roundabout ways Kageyama finds to call Reiko a moron.
The pool looks lovely:
Title drop:
They may have zero deduction skills but at least they are capable of catching the culprit.
@rikka@ani.socialBlushing Haruka is back!
We're finally meeting new witches and learning more about the world and its magic.
Although Meg has given up on collecting the teardrops of joy, the Witch of Stinky Feet Wisdom helped her get her monstrous positivity back, so the upcoming Otherworld Festival may present a chance to gather more teardrops at once.
An ominous, yet hilarious episode full of misunderstandings. Sebastian does enjoy trolling his young master. The soundtrack is fantastic. Seems like the staff is outdoing themselves with this arc.
Had too many good screenshots to choose from. @rikka@ani.social
Did Kazamatsuri and Reiko solve at least one case before Kageyama showed up?
I can't put it into words but there is something nostalgic about this one. Comedic bits work well, the overreaction over a shampoo hat made me laugh, and the characters are charming in their own ways. I wonder who the guest is, looked like an alien. Looking forward to the next episode.
Meg is so bad at math she forced the owl to do the calculation.
I was a bit worried the story would continue to be too light-hearted despite such sensitive topics as dying and losing your loved ones, but the second half of this episode somewhat reassured me.
That introductory ojou-sama walk was so funny. I love the main cast of characters. Reiko is a lovable idiot, Kazamatsuri is ridiculous, and Kageyama is one hell of a butler. As expected, the VA performance will be my favourite part of this show.
This episode was so packed with fighting I'm a bit disappointed our tsundere MC didn't even blush once. New themes are not so cool as the previous ones, sadly.
Not a bad first episode that shows what to expect further on. I feel like it will be an enjoyable watch and curious to see which story turns to be my personal tearjerker.
SPRING SEASON
Definitely watching:
- The Apothecary Diaries - more Maomao
- Aharen-san - I adore Aharen and Raido's character dynamic
- Shoshimin - charmed me from the start
- Black Butler: Emerald Witch Arc - enjoyed this arc in manga
- Kowloon Generic Romance - loved how atmospheric the manga was
High chance I'll watch it through the end:
- Fire Force - want to finish this adaptation since I'm not planning on picking up the manga
- Wind Breaker - liked the characters, hope it improves (the theatre arc in the first season was a bit tiring)
- GQuuuuuuX - not missing mecha
- Lazarus - originals are worth checking out
- Aru Majo ga Shinu Made - witchy drama, the premise sounds interesting
- Nazotoki wa Dinner no Ato de - I'm here mostly for the main seiyuu trio, expecting a fun character dynamic
Will watch the first couple of episodes to decide if I'm sticking with it:
- Yaiba
- Witch Watch
- Anne Shirley
- Sword of the Demon Hunter
- Teogonia
- Zatsu Tabi
- mono
- Food for the Soul
- Apocalypse Hotel
- The Mononoke Lecture Logs of Chuzenji-sensei
- Rock is a Lady’s Modesty
- The Too-Perfect Saint
- From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman
Every single episode makes me like Tsukasa even more. How is this possible? I'm glad Rio has warmed up to him. He's even calling him 'my coach' now lol.
