part of me hopes for a second season.

Didn’t really tie up all the loose ends, but great ending. Thanks for all the laughs and the motivation, Nichijou. KyoAni strikes again. Cured my minor burnout this week. Sorry for a late and short intermissions this week! You will be missed, Nichijou. Too bad there’s no more episodes next week, guess there’s really only Mawaru/Idolmaster left now.

Warming up with Usagi Drop

Walking into the new season, and a new year.

As I finish watching Usagi Drop, part of me feels unsatisfied. Certainly, the anime had a good run. They chose a fitting point to end, right before the time skip in the manga occurs, with Rin’s teeth finally starting to fall out. Reading the manga, the ending can be quite controversial, which is why I’m happy they chose this point to end it, instead of possibly rushing to a time skip and a rushed ending. Rin stays cute, Daikichi stays a fatherly figure, we’re all happy.

Steins;Gate: A stingy aftertaste

Spoilers ahead. But I’m assuming you guys already watched the episode, since it was quite epic. The penultimate episode of Steins;Gate, I’ve been hearing.

I was going to do a shallow blurb on how great I found the recent episode to be, while praising Mamoru Miyano for his excellent voice acting at the end. I don’t think anyone else can do it justice.

Then I read E Minor’s post on how the story has already established an ending since episode 22, and commenting on it made me think quite a bit, which established the foundations of this post.

The anime did do quite a spectacular job tying up all the loose ends together near the end and made sure most, if not all characters, had a part in the plot. Heck, even the whereabouts of Mayushii’s metal Upa was revealed in this episode. Such a close connection between each character deserves praise in my books. Usually, the minor characters are just comic relief and forgotten easily after a couple of episodes in your typical generic anime, so to see a everyone all tied up in the story, like Mr. Braun, Suzuha, Feyris, Daru and the others having a role to play leaves this an anime to remember for me. Close to topping my top 10 charts.
