It's not support for Ienaga but maybe be open to other people's read on a character instead of just trying to shut them down.

Still wearing your uniform after you get out is extremely shameful.

If Sugimoto was 100 years in the future he'd spend all his time making posts on the internet starting with AS A VETERAN,

On the other hand, they're probably more comfortable, durable and stylish than anything he could afford on his own so there's no reason not to keep using them since there's no high street fashion peddling anything you could want for less than a packet of crisps in that time period.

A big part of kamuy is that everybody is a bad person of some sort but everybody is treated with respect, care, and often a genuine fondness, even murderers.

It's used to comedic effect but everybody is part of a very wierd and very dysfunctional family.

It's a series where a serial murderer wanting the protagonist to kill him is treated as romantic.

I figured it's more like how a down on his luck Vietnam vet would keep wearing his BDUs as street clothes for the same reasoning that tsob has. Sugimoto isn't enamored with the military at all. He joined up for reasons other than "God and Country!".

Sugimoto started out the show pan-handling for gold and his goal is to raise cash so he can help his dead buddies' family; he really doesn't come off as someone with spare cash to flush away on anything. In fact, beyond explosives, has Sugimoto actually spent money on anything in the show?

Beyond assumed costs of meals on the rare times they eat in a restaurant, not really.

Still working on S1 watch; I was kinda glad that the bit where the guy gets his face wiped off by the bear was mostly offscreen, I'd forgotten about that but it was rough in the manga.

e: although that did leave it mostly up to my imagination and remembering that scene so that was possibly worse :x

oh yeah I mean there is no mistake what happens but iirc in the manga that's also accompanied by at least one panel of what's left behind of his head

It was a bit odd to have two Psycho/Silence of the Lambs pastiche episodes so close together, but they ended up going in pretty different directions. I like that, despite all the serial-killer tropes, Edogai doesn't seem to have actually killed anyone. I also liked that he introduced a new twist to the tattooed skins plot instead of being just a throwaway villain.

It turns out the kitsune fortuneteller isn't just a character of the week either. Not sure how I feel about having her around in a story that previously didn't have anything so overtly supernatural.

to be fair there were two pretty substantial arcs that got skipped over between Murder Hotel and Edogai so they shouldn't really be so close together; one of them is covered in the ova so I hope the other one will get the same treatment because it has the best couple

I think Inkarmat's supernatural-ness is still very much in question, which is one of the neat things about her character imo

anyway I'm excited because there isn't much left of the parts I've read so most of this season will be new material for me :toot:

a fun episode! there was a lot happening but lmao at the spread at the end I'm so glad they showed the whole thing

I was hoping the show was going to lean into the weird humor the story takes on as it goes along, like yeah there's a lot of action and adventure but there is also just some really funny stuff and lots of references to like art and movies so I'm glad that's not being left out.

e: manga panels in this but some stuff to look out for perhaps?
