I can't say as I've felt like Anzu's story has really been an endless gutpunch so far. It's more of a bittersweet one really, where there is a lot of lovely things, but they're almost always balanced out by smaller victories and happiness so that it never feels overwhelming. Even now, I'm kind of hoping she gets to meet or even help Shige-san and the other homeless dads she was living with for a while because her never seeing them again feels like it'd be more of a gutpunch than anything despite her personal circumstances having vastly improved.

Also, it seems kind of weird to have the ending remind you that Hina and Anzu are psychic wunderkids of some kind because it comes up so rarely now.

I am totally up for Anzu giving her psychic muscles a workout in the most heartwarming possible way.

I wish this anime was about the pure, dumb, but always well meaning Anzu and less about her dumb and selfish friend Hina

Hitomi needs to take a page from Hina and not give a gently caress sometimes.

She cant. She gives too many fucks about everything. She must, its just who she is.

So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

The only problem with watching Tokyo Godfathers right now is that it's also probably one of the best Christmas movies ever made, and May is way too early for watching those.

Utako's reaction to Nitta's puppet performance is the hardest I laughed at this show.
It was such a good character bit for both of them.

Man. Hitomi is an amazing character but I wager the anime wouldn't get to the current manga chapters until like season 3 or something, which is a shame because the last two have been the best Hitomi chapters period

Hina's also missing from this week's ED. I fully expect everyone except Nitta to disappear by the final episode.

The expressions in this show are pretty top. I was hoping to see a bit more use of the super powers throughout the show causing issues since in episode 1 they made a big point out of making sure you knew hina had to use them.

Unexpectedly good though, def in my top 3 of the season

Nah I get that, my thing was more it would just be nice to see coming up more often or making issues pop up etc. This last episode was pretty decent, but wow had real awkward moments
