Spiritus Nox posted:Mob, Saikou. This show's the best thing airing right now and nobody else is even close. Showing Mob and Reigen's meeting again from Reigen's perspective was an obvious move but still crazy effective. And the end of the episode was, of course, perfection. That's where the scene originally appeared in the manga, so if anything Bones moving it to the first season and showing it from Mob's perspective only to recontextualise it from Reigen's here was the perfect long con on Bones' part.

Expect My Mom posted:I seriously almost cry every time I see the flashback. Little fifth grade Mob being so amazed to hear someone try to relate to him kills me I love the shot in the flashback from Reigen's POV when he talks about how he admired Mob, and the scene goes from black and white to in color.

I simulwatch this with a friend and I told him to wait on watching ep 6 till 7 was out. So we had a double feature and it was a really good time. We both started getting a bit misty eyed right about where Reigen did, too.

Zerilan posted:I love the shot in the flashback from Reigen's POV when he talks about how he admired Mob, and the scene goes from black and white to in color. just super good symbolism, showing that even we hurt the people we love, it doesn't invalidate all our past experiences with them, and we can grow and become greater from that. Hurting others and making mistakes doesn't mean you aren't or can't be a good person. e: the lyrics to the ed used here and episode 1, sajou no hana's gray, are also real good. i wish it was the main ED, but i like they break out for big emotional moments Expect My Mom fucked around with this message at 02:09 on Feb 19, 2019 |

Man I feel bad for the rest of the anime coming out this year because this is firmly my Anime of the Year. Something truly spectacular has to come out to stand of chance of dethroning Mob. God I was emotional at the end of this episode

Oh my god this episode. My heart. This series is drat good. Only Mob could go from the hilarity of the ending of the press conference to an incredibly sweet moment that almost brought me to tears in the span of 30-40 seconds. drat

just L O L at those chumps who think Reigen Arataka is not the real deal. Of all the manga to ever get adaptations, I think this might be the singular one where the anime is just as good or better than the manga deserved.

Mordaedil posted:A calm episode about a marathon. Mob really was on fire with the training huh. It should be noted that this is one area where the anime is way better than the manga. In the manga, we were only just introduced to Mob's parents in this chapter. In the anime, Bones has made it so they were a constant presence even in season 1. So the emotional impact is way harder, especially since they've shown they've been pretty decent parents.
