No. 6

El capítulo nos da una perspectiva respecto a cómo es percibido Nezumi por lo demás, adicional comenzamos a tener pistas para construir su odio por la ciudad. La relación con Isakashi es muy interesante, a pesar del giro de trama que se sintió un poco abrupto.

El capítulo no desarrolla mucho la historia, si bien hay algunos momentos importantes respecto a lo que quiere hacer Shion, creo que además de algunas revelaciones respecto al posible futuro es en general un capítulo de relleno. Lo más importante es que se van presentando personajes que construyen el mundo fuera de No 6

No soy muy fan de los saltos temporales, pero, aquí se maneja muy bien como nos cuentan lo que pasó en este tiempo. Adicional, vemos cómo comienza a desarrollarse la problemática principal y tiene un final muy impactante por varias razones.

Everything comes to a head with high-stakes action and emotions that leave you on the edge of your seat the entire time. The series does well keeping your attention even during slower moments that either add something to the characters or give more information tied to the plot. Only wish there could have been more, but at least a continuation of the manga was released recently!

The stakes really pick up as we get to all the big action and begin to see yet another change in the dynamic between the two main characters and what they mean to each other. We also follow Shion in his realization of the horror that No. 6 has brought to people and are further asked to think about the line between morals and humanity.

Things really begin to pick up as Rat and Shion execute their plans. The pacing really nicely balances the big moments with slower beats to really highlight the seriousness of the situation and the severity of it not only for the protagonists but also for those around them.

A lot of important information is revealed about the history behind No. 6 in this episode and why Rat feels the way he does about it. It largely happens through dialogue with flashbacks but is pivotal to understanding the characters' pasts and motivations as well as the stakes they're up against. We also get more building of tension as the characters prepare to face No. 6 head-on.

The pace lingers a bit at the start but begins to pick up as we see the two main characters prepare for the larger battle to come. It really sets up the bases for the approaching climax of the series and also acts as an almost eerie, tension-filled break before the storm.

While paced much slower than other episodes, this one does hit on important character-building moments and especially continues to expand the interesting dynamic between Shion and Rat as more tension builds. Action takes a backseat as we sit with the characters and their attempts to perspective-take.

The relationship between Rat and Shion develops further in this episode, and we begin to see the effects it's having on each of them as they continue to grow closer. More tension is also built surrounding what is happening in No. 6, and the parallels keep the intrigue on both sides. Overall definitely one of the stronger episodes of the bunch!

While this episode slows down a bit more than the rest, we learn more stuff about the city's history and how the area outside of No. 6 and its inhabitants function. It sort of takes the viewer on the same path of discovery as Shion, which makes the pacing feel intentional rather than feeling like filler.

This episode really picks up the pace with some interesting visual body horror beats as they continue to unveil what's going on behind the bees seemingly plaguing the city's residents. We also get to see more about Rat's character and what drives him and his motives compared to Shion's, giving us more about their dynamic and growing relationship.

The timeskip in this episode creates even more intrigue in what happened during the time between the two episodes while introducing newer plot points that offer a more immediate conflict to look forward to working through. Overall the episode does really great attention keeping in the writing, though dialogue detailing in-between moments sometimes comes across slightly underdeveloped.

A lot of important story beats are set up for the sci-fi world-building while also catching your attention by introducing the world and immediately making you ask questions about it.

El capítulo como tal no da mucho contexto sobre el mundo al que nos estamos adentrando, a pesar de que le da mucho suspenso a la historia. A pesar de eso, considero que plantea muy bien la identidad de cada personaje, dejando claro como se van a relacionar de ahora
