I read the manga some time before season 1 even came out. And the production value of this episode made it hit so much harder then in the manga (even if the scene in the manga was so sad). The transition between the shot where she says she tired of everything and the shot where it rains so hard was one of the best I've seen. It hit like a truck wanting to isekai you.
Definitely! They added so much to this moment in the manga with the flashbacks and, like you mentioned, the transition between how she was feeling and the rain. Insanely beautiful. Probably the best episode so far (other than the first episode/movie)
1:05:16 I also like when no characters ends up alone unless I really hate a certain character, and even then I sometimes hopes that character doesn't end up alone.
Yes! Thank you! I feel the same way! 🥹 I just want everyone to be happy, unless the character is irredeemable or refuses to grow as a better person. -Ariel
