Lycoris Recoil Episode 11
Some developments were easy to predict but they still looked cool as here with character confronting one another and scenes that simply looked badass. Majima's seiyuu has made a wonderful performance today. We're approaching the end.
It would have been anticlimatic to say fareweel to characters without them achieving any specific goal so Kurumi using her legendary skills to find out that there is another heart was most likely her role and also I feel that everyone expected there to be heart anyway.
What was good from Takina throughout episode is that she was constantly trying to find Chisato instead of being Lycoris. At the beginning of story Chisato said that if Takina thinks her place is in DA then that's up her choice and now we see that she put Chisato over mission.
This was such a obvious outcome but it was impactful mostly due to Yoshitsugu Matsuoka's performance. Majima surely made something that would not be easily hidden. That scene with civilian shooting Lycoris and her killing him in the process. He certainly exposed DA for sure.
Majima knew Chisato weakness and he used it well. One being her exraordinary skills to predict trajectory of bullet but also her no killing policy and used it against her. I thought there would be a scene when Chisato would be put in such position, not like its unexpected.
Majima's talent was showcased during flashback where we could see him with a blindfold during terrorist attack and if his vision was impaired then his hearing would enhance. Now its proven. That whole scene made Majima so much more menacing. Good stuff.
This is gonna become such an iconic scene, simple and great. Takina smashing through to save Chisato by also in the process enlightening the room which makes fighting in this situation easier. 2 episodes left and I don't think everyone will reach the finish line.

Oshi no Ko END

Upon first glancing on the conclusion the readers feel perplexed. The goal has been achieved, and narration drives a point forward regarding lies, however, it is missing aspects that would solidify it. It undermines the past making it seem insignificant. Image
Oshi no Ko has always been a story divided into two sections. The Entertainment World Vs Revenge. Some of the introduced characters were clearly designed to only interact with a single aspect of it. Ruby the Idol and Aqua the Revenge Actor. This formula began to crumble early on.
Having Aqua and Ruby was supposedely conceived to have a dual protagonist, and receive a balance between the two plotpoints. At times the scale would change depending on events, however, it would not overshadow the other completly. This has taken a noteable effect on Ruby.

Ishura Episode 1

Amazing pilot for one of the more intriguing battle light novels. From visuals to presentation it may feel overbearing but that's the essence of work. If you're into over the top characters fighting it out in ridiculous scenarios, that's it and more!

The magic system of world was briefly touched upon in a quite fast and easy way. It is enough for readers and viewers to understand without being too complicated. The pacing of episode spends little time before getting to the absolute madness that this story often is. Image
The drastic change to environment and tone greatly depicts the dangers lurking beneath. What is especially interesting aside from the sheer brutality on display, is how you can very much empathize with Yuno's struggles. With such powerful forces simply playing around her. Image

Following the mainly overseas reception of Mushoku Tensei's latest episode some have gone out of their way to ridicule author to the point that certain sites have mischaracterized tweets and took away all nuance and context. All of which resulted in author being forced to clarify Image
Every week author does what is called live tweeting which basically implies posting thoughts on episode as it airs in real time. Giving some sort of insight to world and characters. There was nothing unusual about it at the time and noone had any objections.
That was until people picked it up and started spreading author's words in narrative that basically framed this as his response to heated controversy overseas when in fact his tweet was made before episode even came out in English, nullifying that.

Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Opening Video Breakdown

Boarded and directed by Shinpei Wada that is filled with symbolism and metaphors. The impact that Rudeus made on others and the path that people enable him to tread on. Freedom birds are a central motive and piece.

Image
We open with a simple scene of a curtain with a light at the end of it. It can be seen as figuratively and literally in a way that it shines upon Rudeus world and in order to reach it he has to take a step. This curtain motif was present previously in attempts that hurted him. Image
Opened birdcage with 3 colored leathers laying next to it indicating that there were once birds trapped in it and Rudeus freed them. It is a reference to main girls which where able to change thanks to his influence. We also see a spilled drink. Just like on that night with Eris. Image

Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Episode 3

Regrets. Mistakes. Failures. Even after getting up we stumble across obstacles that life puts on our way. It is not easy to overcome but gradually we tend to learn. We grow. We change. We fight. In an never ending battle called life Image
It is clear by now that Sara was a walking Eris reminder that constantly kept bugging Rudeus with her presence and his lack of ability to read the room. Over the course of this episode we see multiple doubts that he himself feels but also some that are suggested to him by others. Image
The very scene in bed and justification is specifically designed to mirror that from season 1 with some, I'm almost confident similar frames and Sara claiming to have done it out of obligation. The scene had a very tough to convey the considering nature of problem. Image

Mushoku Tensei Season 2 Episode 0

Introduction of a story taken from extra chapter necessary for future development. The worrying signs are partially true as even with change of staff, the show retains segmented aspects that made people love Mushoku so much.
I personally believe that this could have been used as an OVA instead of a season opener due to its contents that slighlty require remembering what happened in season 1 to avoid confusion. Most episode was spent on Asura's politics and showing us what Sylphie was going through.
The delivery was rather straight forward with not to many aspects that require explanation, however the amount of new or updated information can feel a bit overwhelming, especially if politics is not someone's cup of tea. We got to meet new faces that actually made cameo in S1.
