| We all know about the quality in this episode. I am sad. |
| I don't think I've ever seen something fall off this hard, this fast. And it's not like it's a pilot for a 12 episode show, it's only 4 episodes! The turn from horror to comedy is almost impressive, I can't drop it because it's still so entertaining. |
| This is horrendous and pretty saddening. No way in hell is this the Production I.G I've been praising all along |
| bro WHAT happened |
My candies!!!:      |
| I get that the level of animation showcased in the first episode must be incredibly difficult to maintain throughout the entirety of a series, seeing as it was so detailed. Still, I thought that given the fact that this is only a 4 episodes long series, and it has been in production for what feels like forever, the drop in quality wouldn't be SO astonishing. Truly, one of the biggest fumbles I've seen this year. |
| My candies!!!: |
| There is a noticeable drop off in the animation but its not as bad as everyone says. It still has style and it feels like just the snake romance scenes were mostly the ones that were off. |
| I only saw a few clips, but I can tell Uzumaki died for Kimi ni Todoke S3. And does the source material really have 600+ pages and this has four episodes? You know what, there's a good chance The Promised Neverland S2 would look like absolute cinema in comparison. |
| The story is still creepy but the animation was in a downward "spiral". |

| just bomb the whole town atp |
| Why is everyone running the way you run in dreams? ๐ญ But seriously... wow. And here I thought Episode 1 was disappointing because of its awful pacing. Now I kinda wish that was the only issue with this adaptation. |
| What the fuck? What the actual fuck? WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK OF EVERY SINGLE THING IS THIS? I swear to God there is so much to dig into here that I am having a stroke. The whole thing with the snail humans got me a bout to fucking puke. |
| Pretend there's something flashy and cool here. |
| Man, I don't know why but as others have pointed out the animation and production values really fell off from the first episode. Also, it wasn't as impactful as the first episode and just like that this is turning out into a more average show. Having said that hopefully things improve for the remaining 2 episodes but even if they do I began finding myself annoyed that the 2 main characters are staying in the town despite what has happened to themselves and those around them. |
| its not good, they shoud have go for one story at the time, not combine them all together |
| The CGI animation toom a massive dip in today's episode, especially that chase scene in the middle of the ep, lmao so goofy. Anyways, more spiral-induced fear! However this time as opposed to literal spirals, the phenomenon has branched out to figurative forms of spirals, such as the connection of love, the entangling of fates and the personality of being twisted. We see that these spirals have some sort of consciousness of their own with how Kirie's hair acts of its own will. This lead to that hilariously out-of-place shojo-shonen battle scene between hair vs hair, wut. What is most creepy of all is how the spirals have the capability to transform humans, not just inflict them with obsessive paranoia but physically transform their physiology to something like those freaky snail-humans. The moral of the story? Don't bully your classmates or else they and you will get turned to giant snails and make eggs together. Yuck |

| Well people really overreacting for sure, sure the quality of Animation was drop but only on few scenes. Episode 2 still creppy and disturbing enough to me, Hair Spiral battle, Human Snail, the fcking Lighthouse that burn people. I just want to know what kind of weed that Junji Ito consume why he writing this? lol |

| As usual, 90% of MAl cares only about animation quality. Story, voice acting, direction are meaningless around these parts |

 Hello Aru is here |
| I've been enjoying this series so far, it's actually been really creepy watching each chapter come to life! I don't think the animation is bad, tbh I think these animators are not being compensated for their worth and are cranking these anime out at the expense of their health, and it's dumb af complaining about it when this energy can go towards shaming the big corporations for the financial scraps and mental health dilemma they put aimators and studios through. |
| desu desu binches |
| my reaction of ths episode: ๐๐๐ I lol'ed at kirie vs black haired girl fight |
Crazy for Siyun Baek and Park Yunsu   |

@Farabeuf The story is literally incomprehensible with the pace they've chosen, it feels like it's a random smashup of events one after the other lol. |
| Aside from animation downgrade, they crammed too many chapters in this episode. |
