I have a soft spot for adaptations that feel like they completely understand their source (think JoJo). Nothing was changed because nothing needed changing, and the creative decisions they do make fit perfectly. Oh and the ending is so so good,

People said the same thing about the manga but I haven't heard anyone say they thought it was getting stale or anything even after 40+ chapters.

Like all good serials with a formula, Seki does a great job of testing the limits of the concept.

Eh, I thought it was fine. There wasn't really a punchline but I liked Yokoi's reactions as the situation changed.

Yea there was? The whole, the family came together thing. Yokoi's optimistic world view defeating Seki's evil. It was pretty great, although yea they've done that joke before.

It confuses me that these translated openings exist. Even people who watch dubbed anime are totally down with Japanese language openings most of the time. Even if they were to dub it, this style of show has never been super popular outside Japan. And the kind of people who would watch a dubbed version of Seki? Probably down with an undubbed opening.

This is not the first time anime has confounded me, of course.

It's always better to make these decisions with someone else.
