Ishura S2 Episode 12

So we finally see the First Party facing against the Demon King and to say it wasn't a fight is underselling it. Shiki with the looks of a school girl makes it for quite an interesting reveal. Though her being a visitor is not what I expected. Of course, we don't know who killed her, assuming it was the true hero. Though we get a safe assumption that Shalk was part of the main party. Although most interesting that Soujirou knew Shiki.

Kuuro was also one of the followers of Linaris it seems. Though it seems it was her followers that tried to kill her, which didn't happen thanks to Toroa. With what Linaris was hinting is that if something happened to someone Kuuro cared about, shyt would basically go down. I got a bad feeling something will happen to Cuneigh.


Overall, much like S1 in of itself, it was fantastic. Though not getting confirmation of S3 right away hurts. I really hope the wait to announce it isn't too long.

Finished up Magic Maker. It was a surprisingly solid isekai, which the main focus being the foundation of magic. It feels like it finished the prologue of the story answering questions and raising more. I would rate it 7/10 as directing in some moments were sloppy, but it is one that could be pretty intriuging if done right.

Starting to rewatch "Shoshimin: How to Become Ordinary", which some of the best cinematography & directing from last year being a SoL Mystery.

Remembering the ending of episode 1 truly one of the most shocking and saddest moments in anime history.

Watching "Shoshimin: How to Become Ordinary" episode 2 and honestly much like Monogatari and Ishura, it is a showing that going back in a rewatch gives you a different look for this series.

First being the conversation with Kengo before the little mystery starts. Kengo mentions how much Kobato. Very much the type of person that acts the part and going along with just to change. It makes you wonder what could possibly cause him to change.

The whole hot coco mystery was less about the mystery, but more so the characterization of Kobato. The first point it showcases his curiosity about how did Kengo create the 3 cups of hot chocolate with no spills. Tbh it more showcases how meddling Kobato can be. As a viewer for the first time, you are left wondering, why are we solving this mystery when we can just ask Kengo? But this is Kobato's nature of being a smart ass and having to know the answer without getting help. It's an ego thing.

The last part of the episode dwells on Kobato & Osanai's farewell conversation. More so the meddling type of person is who Kobato is. It brings up two questions. Why does Kobato want to change? The only clue is that he says he is done playing detective. More and more giving the impression he tries to solve other perople's problems as a narcissist.

Been watching BanG Dream for the past 2 months. It has been interesting. Starting as a mix of Bocchi & K-ON. Then adding more bands which really add to the world of the series. I will be interesting if Bocchi anime can adapt it at a similar level since its manga has that feel. The last 2 seasons being more drama and with Ave Mujica having Psychological Horror mixed it was interesting. Excited to watch more.
