Moribito - Guardian of the Spirit

Ngl I think bro needed an outfit change immediately and I cannot wait for more lore on Balsa. Most of this episode basically consisted of boring 'ol politics and shopping! Chaguns got some grit and I'm looking forward to seeing some character development when it comes to him, decent paving, decent character introductions and quite a strong cliffhanger ending.

Well the introduction looks quite wholesome and cinematic, I love me a tall warrior woman 🔥🔥🔥. When she goes "If you have money, life is the same no matter where you go" is real af. Quite an intense first impression with a beat to match! Balsa has quite the fearsome personality and she's evidently smart too... But during the duration of this episode my girl really got promoted from bodyguard to babysitter (T _ T). This anime looks promising, the animation looks smooth and the plot seems pretty interesting.

Pretty good ending, I'd actually prefer it like that and am quite satisfied with how things played out. As opposed to an overly sweet happy ending. The characters are amazingly written, feel natural, A truly wonderful anime.

Wow, those were quite a lot of disgusting squids. Poor Chagum had to go through so much. Quite A decent ending with the soundtrack really fitting well and pulling everything together. The hunters really came through, willing to fight with their swords if it came to it!

Plot, on point and the animation too, 'cept that lil bit of weird CGI with the bug. The exchange of information between Torogai and Shuga was an interesting watch. The action was on point, and my man Tanda is amazing.

This ending felt more natural, which made it even sadder. It was emotional and gut-punching. But I guess they already expected this to happen from the very beginning. The episode showed that even for a brief time with someone can leave a lasting impact on you. Remarkable ending!

Beautiful episode, really well written. Tanda and Balsa would really be amazing parents to Chagum. Glad to see the two sides finally unite for a common crucial purpose. The episode is so tense and dramatic towards the end! great watch.

Okay, finally, the 8 souls Balsa speaks of make A lot of sense. I'm glad she took the time to get Chagum up to speed about everything. You can really see that bond growing between the two. CHAGUM TRAINING ARC PEAK!!!

Finally got that Balsa backstory I was desperately waiting for. We see how she became what she is, truly well captured. The emotional depth is insane. Pretty great episode, a definite must-watch.

Both Torogai and Balsa are absolute badasses. It's so refreshing to see, actually, well-written female characters for once. I initially thought Shuga was useless leading the hunters' team, but I was horribly mistaken, he really shows his worth with his simple reasoning.

I'd agree with both sides when it comes to the Chagum and Balsa confrontation, but bro really got his sense knocked into him like that. Things get super intense with the hunters already at the village too!

This is the conclusion of Chagum’s guardian journey. Overall, it was good, the story, animation, soundtrack and twists were all well done. But honestly, I felt like it lacked action scenes. I expected more, especially since this was the climax everyone had been preparing for.

Torogai is really quite the goat; her subtle contributions, in my opinion, should not be overlooked. We can see the argumentative tension between Chagum and Balsa arise, which is unfortunate but understandable.

The pacing really does pick up with this episode, the kind where you're on the edge of your seat. Toya definitely is a very brave guy. The side characters are so well written that you end up really concerned about them too!

Bro, that intelligence gathering dude is a little freaky with his eyes, but you can't deny the fact that the man is amazing at his job. Also, I love how Balsa has her little stashes around everywhere, pretty interesting episode!

Well, I've gotta say the title of the episode is definitely something. But I also love how supportive Tanda and Balsa are of Chagum's dreams, pretty interesting episode!

Mistress Toragai was really having a business meeting with all the Sea monsters to get up to speed on the lore at the start (T _ T). Was fun to see the spotlight on her as one of my favourites. Pacing is a little slow, but decent watch.

Not my girl, Balsa, treating those rocks like being pelted by raindrops. Balsa really was angy this episode. Men and their weird sword fighting rules to the death istg. The action was on point this episode, really picks up on pacing!

Great episode, the bonfires were beautiful, and you can see how Balsa is a pretty great teacher. She teaches through example, and it's amazing to see how fast Chagum picks up! Balsa is a badass mother figure!

This episode really reinforces the fact that Toya is a pretty great guy, Tanda's skills are tested, and we get to see him in action. The world-building and animation are truly peak
