I’ve been waiting for the other shoe to drop, not sure I’m ready for the next episode 🥲

I like it more than Last of Us personally.

I saw this on reddit and it perfectly encapsulates how I’m feeling right now (._.)

Seems like they’ve already announced season 2 so that’s great ＼(^^)／

Looks like Lakan just wants to be a good dad and Maomao seems more aware of why things went down the way they did than it initially seemed, a very neat and satisfying ending to the season. Also that dance was very pretty!

Lakan isn’t a schemer, he’s just bad at expressing himself.

I think it’s a bit of both, he is a schemer and he comes off as cold and uncaring because of his face blindness. Like in previous episodes, his visits to Jinshi definitely showcased his scheming side.

Yeah, currently it definitely seems that he isn’t a bad person, the dominoes just fell in such a way that we are where we are and not because he intentionally abandoned Fen Xian and Maomao.

This episode also revealed that Lakan’s uncle is Maomao’s adoptive father, wonder what affect that’ll have on the story going forward. I hope they’ll explain why Lakan never tried to find out what happened to Fen Xian, it seems he just assumed she passed away completely unaware of her current status.

So Lakan isn’t as much of an ass as he was initially presented as. This episode was a bit of a difficult watch, Feng Xian clearly didn’t want to be bought out but once the bid reached too high to turn down she challenged Lakan hoping to get him to buy her instead. What an awful position for her to be in, before she was just a tragic backstory for our protagonist but now she’s a character who I felt sympathy for and hoped things would turn out better even knowing they won’t.

It’s really incredible how everything slowly comes together in this show, I imagine I’d enjoy it a lot more if I binged it instead of watching weekly cause there’s some stuff that I forget from previous episodes.

mfw watching this show. Really dense episode, I like how this show doesn’t slow down for idiots like me but that does also mean that sometimes I have to go back and watch some of it again to connect the dots (・_・;)

Also, they can make a whole anime just from Suirei’s perspective, showing how she recruited all her co-conspirators, planning out all the murders and fleshing out her motivations.

Man I should’ve waited until all episodes finished airing, waiting a week after this episode is going to painful >.>

I love how possessive Fern is of her adoptive mother, so cute!

I didn’t know there was a tournament arc.

Kinda empty around here lately :/

Really cool episode, I’m always blown away by the sheer quality of the animation!

How do they keep pumping out such high quality animation week after week?! Fern and Stark dancing together looked so insanely clean! Fantastic episode, Frieren doing a little hop so she could pat Sein on head was so adorable (* ´ ▽ ` *)

me right now

Finally! It’s been so long.

That bit cracked me up lol , reactions from Stark and Fern were the cherry on top.

Apothecary diaries has been a pleasant surprise, I’ve been really enjoying it. Same for frieren.

Been also watching Saint’s Magic Power is Omnipotent second season, season 1 is one of my favorite animes in recent years but season 2 just hasn’t been as engaging, at least so far, I hope it picks up.

Also, this one isn’t an anime but it is animated, Blue eye samurai, highly recommend everyone to check it out, I absolutely loved it and the lack of buzz around it has been really bizarre considering the sheer quality of this show. I’ve heard it has a fantastic Japenese dub if you prefer watching it that way, I saw it in English, stellar performances all around.

There are a couple of scenes, like Frieren getting out of bed, although watching again I’m not entirely sure if it’s rotoscoped or just made using a lot of reference .

This episode almost had me crying, so good! Also, lots of rotoscoping in this episode, looked very lively.

I very highly recommend Saint’s Magic Power is Omnipotent, I absolutely loved the first season and the second season is currently airing.

Stray gods came out back in August and is currently sitting at very positive on steam, it’s by David Gaider’s new studio, he was former lead writer on dragon age.

I’d also recommend Saint’s magic power is omnipotent, not completely caught up on the second season yet but I absolutely adored the first season.
