 [   Shindou is a highly-skilled negotiator working for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. As his plane at Haneda airport prepares to take off, a huge mysterious cube appears from the sky. A strange being called Yaha-kui zaShunina appears from within and tries to make contact with humanity. Shindou, who was been absorbed by Kado, ends up taking on the role of mediator between Yaha-kui zaShunina and humanity.  Yaha-kui zaShunina Appears with the giant cube, KADO. Has come from "outside the universe" and wants to advance humanity.  Koujirou Shindou Gets absorbed by KADO due to being on the plane as it appears and ends up teaming up with zaShunina to help him communicate with humanity.  Saraka Tsukai Selected to counter-negotiate with zaShunina and Shindou. KADO is a CG show, so if that bothers you, maybe don't watch it. That said I think the CG is done well and the show is engaging enough that I forget about it most of the time watching it. KADO Is a story with a focus on negotiation instead of conflict, most of the episodes so far are spent talking. As another user put it in the season thread, it is a slow and methodical drama. If that sounds interesting to you, give it a chance. There is also an "Episode 0" done in traditional animation, which focuses on Shindou's work but I don't think it's mandatory if you want to just jump straight in.

AVeryLargeRadish posted:I was thinking in a bit different direction. Remember, Za is only giving the beads to the Japanese government, think about how disruptive it would be to have infinite energy at the command of one nation. I think Za wants to see if the people involved can hold to the analogy he used, Za has given them more bread than they can ever eat, everyone seemed to agree that if a starving man came to their table that they would share the bread, but will Japan share? Can the human instinct towards placing oneself above others be overcome? I think this is pretty obviously what is going on. The episode ends with him saying "Mankind, I want you to choose the right answer". The right answer would be to share the energy marbles. Or maybe reject them.

I never knew I could be so excited about watching a block roll down the road.

Yeah I think this episode was a good showcase for why they chose to go full CG for the series.

It's too late to go back now. Next episode looks like we're gonna get some interesting revelations.

StarMinstrel posted:lol next episode will basically be TETSUOOOOOO!!!! yes? I basically had hopes with this episode what we'd go back to an ok ending, but the five last minutes clearly pointed otherwise. The 3D works really well in this show since it's relatively "low-key" in terms of movement/action, I'm a bit afraid it'll look super janky if they're gonna try and do some kind of fight scene in the last episode. The KADO visuals continue to be really cool though.

The reveal of Shindou's daughter was stupid enough that I liked it a lot. Overall I'm glad I watched this show, even though it could have been better.

Yeah they made a big deal about how Shindou is an incredible negotiator and that's why they were letting him negotiate for the alien but they kinda forgot about that once he started giving out toys.

I was expecting the daughter to be some kind of anisotropic police at first.
