Mania Grade: B+

In Summary:
Wandering Son continues to have a relaxing and engaging story that draws you in slowly at different places in order to disarm you before making you realize how connected you are. The kids are going through one of the most difficult times in most peoples lives because of all the things that are raging inside of them that they're not aware of as well as all the external influences and pressures. It's all very restrained here in a proper Japanese way, but there are some key moments that really stand out to show how they're coping with it. There's even a wonderful scene between Takatsuki and Anna that works very well as they're still at an age where such reconciliations are still possible. There's a lot to like with this episode as we move past the play and see what else is in store for these kids.
