I'm watching this without having read the manga, and I'm enjoying it. I like how Asirpa shows a silly side around Retar in this episode. I get the impression that her super-serious attitude is partially a front. This is sort of confirmed when she says "So I keep my distance, so I don't get too attached." (Referring to bear cubs, but it's hard not to suspect she has a similar attitude toward Sugimoto).

Not a fan of Episode 11; I was looking forward to the temporary shift to an indoor setting, but it tapped into some transphobic tropes while relying too much on campy horror movie logic.

Crain posted:It's just based on HHHolmes and his murder hotel. It's still tied into wanting to change her body, though...

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.
