Just saw the latest episode tonight.

SpoilerI haven't cried like that from a television show in a while. And it made me kind of mad, because a lot of the emotions she was feeling, I've felt too about my own daughter. Granted, the end result she experienced hasn't happened, but like all parents, I've feared that something like it could every day since she was born. It was completely unexpected to get hit by that tonight, so it sort of made me mad in addition to making me cry like a baby. Just had to get that out.

I love this show.

Truly the best anime of this year, in a year with absolute bangers. Science Saru is one of the fucking GOATs. One of the nice things about curating good taste is seeing it come to life, picked up, or further recognized by other members of the community. I am just overjoyed by how good a treatment it has gotten.

All of the animators are doing amazing work, but I want to specifically highlight the director who has a notebook/binder going back for years for storyboarding scenes, and his entire goal for this season has been to have as many "cool shots" shown on screen. We are watching absolute peak. It is amazing. What a fucking win.

The manga also continues and it is amazing as well. If you are staying away from dan da dan because of episode 1 and episode 1 alone, you are doing yourself a disservice with how peak the art&story and show have been.

My god, it's avant garde, it's like watching the dawning of a new era in anime art.

I had a friend call me this morning to tell me how he was sobbing over the acro silky backstory. We are both dads. It is genuinely so well done.
