despite showing mere politics and burocracy, this one was a bit more entretaining than the previous one. And i didn´t like Sushin, but i think it could have been good to have him showing his own report in person, i would have been more drastic
A meh episode. I want to like Bunhou so bad, especially in this episode, but once again Ouriku took the wheel. Not that it's bad, it's just felt like everyone is bending to his will, in a way, even when we're seeing more opposition this episode. The discussion is boring, almost like hearing my ex-boss kept going about his speech.
The hardest thing about getting invested in Riku's trial for this arc is how little he showed any hesitation, doubt, or struggle when it comes to interacting with people, unlike when he was battling with powerful people - to whom he often loses outside the first episode. It makes him a bit pathetic as a protagonist, and there's a lack of show of how the villagers benefited with the rise of Chikyu outside of being more capable than the average person. It's glorifying the use of reiki as a tool to boost people without any cultural significant behind them, so it lacks substance.
