Took me a while to get around to this. Honestly, the world building is subtle but consistent. Subbed is the way to go on this one.

Finally caught up with this one. Honestly, the character writing is way better than I expected. My only gripe is that the middle stretch drags a little. Still, easily a seasonal highlight.

Episode 22 broke me. That's all I'm saying.

Rewatching this before the new season. Honestly, the soundtrack carries entire scenes on its own. Going straight onto my rewatch list.

Went in with zero expectations. Honestly, the animation in the fight scenes is on another level. My only gripe is that the exposition gets heavy around the halfway mark. Not perfect, but I had a great time.
