    I love the post credits artwork, in fact I’d love a hard copy of so much of this season so far.

    I’m appreciating that they aren’t cutting the lesbianism but toning down the fanservice

    Idk about everyone else, but I think I preferred the van scene with Togusa over the movie

    While not as explicit as the manga, they actually adapted the usually removed pages of Junk Jungle. I did not expect that.

    Really enjoying the show so far. Being very faithful to the manga helps setting it apart from the previous adaptations.

    It seems they are doing a 1:1 adaptation of the manga chapters. The only major difference in style I noticed is the toned down gore. Like in the first episode when the bodyguards shoot at the police.

    I get the feeling this is going to be an expertly done (scientifically done, even) mash up of all the versions so far, except for the ones that definitely don’t exist. >.>

    I realized today that episode two was out and I was actually excited about an anime for the first time in a long while.

    Is it too early to call this a contender for Anime of the season? I like it more with each minute. Hopefully that equalizer won’t cause any harm down the line. Heh.
