Re: Episode 10
It's... a very different kind of show. All the same themes are there, but this is much more serious, much darker. Also much shorter. ZKC does get serious at times, but it's spread through four cour...

Re: Episode 24
If Satoru ends up dying anyway, and the (possible) Ogre goes on to kill even more people then I will agree with you.
However, we still only know the short term results of Saki's decision there: she...

Re: Episode 22
I think you are giving far too much credit to the younger Saki and far too little consideration of the extreme difference in circumstances, between Saki's younger and adult selves.

I still don't think this matters. I have to assume you're implying one or both of two things:
