EPISODE REVIEWS

Karen's condition brought a surprisingly emotional side to the episode, while Tsubasa's presence added warmth throughout. Shinobu suddenly becoming more involved completely caught me off guard. The conversations were engaging, and the episode balanced tension, mystery, and character moments really well.

I can't avoid feeling conflicted with each episode, and I think that's exactly what the author wants us to feel.Karen, although she's strong and truly believes in what she does, is still naive, and sometimes strength is not enough.Because of this, Araragi-kun tries to take care of her, after feeling guilty? In this specific case, it makes me wonder: are we, the viewers, the ones with a twisted and perverted vision of what's happening, while what is happening is actually something natural? Or is it just unwarranted fan service?Beautiful photography, though, as always.

Saat Kaiki muncul suasananya langsung terasa surreal dan misterius. Cara dia berbicara santai, dingin, dan seolah-olah selalu mengendalikan situasi ini keren banget... sekali lagi, aku pun takjub dengan editing dan latar belakang di anime ini.Aku rasa episode kali ini adalah episode yang paling mudah diikuti karena diperlihatkan secara langsung adegan bagaimana Karen bertemu langsung dengan Kaiki, tapi adegan fan service-nya tetap bikin susah fokus wkwk.
