Pacing seems off this season. Would have been better as a 24 episode season like last time.

Still good just a shame.
@apathytomorrow Yea... There seems to be a lot of focus on the shenanigans while the advancement of the plot is in the footnotes.
They are catering to the masses though and it is hard to complain about how they are going about it lol

A Delta episode is a Blessing! (best girl)
The part Delta turned from wolf to baka inu for food is so funny, but she's always hilarious. XD
I don't understand how could be possible to refuse her offer to have an hundred babies... XD

First we had Mundane Mann and now we have John Smith (lol, these names). We got a pretty good economics 101 lesson and Yukime's plan sounds solid (her sweating as if being tested was funny). Delta then appearing out of nowhere and piggybacking on Cid was nice too.

Btw, the guy that Garter was reporting to looks like he could be related to Delta...

Finally got to see the double-agent John Smith animated.

Really cute to Cid having some bonding time with Delta (makes it kind of painful to see her go later on) but yeah, this is how random Cid can get in his 'shadow tactics'.

Dude, the pacing of this season has been buck-wild, to say the least, I wasn't expecting the arc about Cid messing with shadow garden girls and the economy this soon. They must be wanting to give extra attention to the next arc. Not complaining though, this arc is one of my favorites.
Neat touch with the op as well, wonder what he'll look like next arc.
I have read 2 perfect chapters of manga; They are Usogui Chapter 203 and Onani Master Kurosawa Chapter 23.
Slam Dunk Chapters 272 to 276 are a perfect stretch of manga.

omg I swear this arc will be soo good.
I'm rlly excited for the fight scene.
I haven't read the ln but I have read the manga and i want them to drag out the fight scene(no spoilers).I'm pretty sure for episode 20 of season 1 the fight was a bit more dragged out and more intense so I wanna see the same or atleast similar thing here l.

@NekOniiChan you never watch spice and wolf? It's a show about Jun Fukuyama character doing economics with canine girl as his partner

It’s been on my “To watch” list for some time now, so I haven’t gotten to it, plainly because seasonals have been clogging up my attention, but I’ll get to it eventually. Also, since Jun Fukuyama is in it, then I’ll probably be more inclined to watch it.
@NekOniiChan

To be honest you can "skip" Spice and Wolf since anime will get a reboot (I think) in next year. And most likely will be more faithful and complete adaptation (+ even less censorship).
Manga recommendation:
- Spy x Family (Ch.123/? - biweekly) | Sakamoto Days (Ch.231/? - weekly)
- MARRIAGETOXIN (Ch.142/? - weekly) | MAD (Ch.34/? - biweekly)
- Make the Exorcist Fall in Love (Ch.101/? - biweekly)
- Monochrome Days (Ch.28/? - biweekly)
Anime recommendation:
- Deca-Dence (Finished) | Wave, Listen to Me! (Finished)
- If My Favorite Pop Idol Made It to the Budokan, I Would Die (Finished)
- Diary of Our Days at the Breakwater (Finished)

Hmm, good to know. But yeah, I’m all for unexpectedly learning something in an anime that wasn’t meant to be an educational series in the first place.

Delta was super cute this week. I really enjoyed her sitting on Shadows shoulder and look at his face. That smile is beautiful.

In the depths of darkness, The Super Elite Secret Agent John Smith-sama unveils truths beyond mortal comprehension. If you really understand what inflation is and what decrease in money demand is, you really feel how this episode identifies you. Take it for granted.

By the way, Delta-san has such a blend of innocent puppy vibes and sheer danger vibes, that seem otherworldly haha; an absolutely impeccable character. Her therianthrope instincts came to the fore today.

Loved it when Cid was holding the two bank notes and monologuing before ending in a line that he's a "super secret agent" or whatever 😂😂😂

The sudden reveal of Delta being fed the chashu pork (and not a stray dog) was funny. Love more of the stuff about the wolf-people (don't think I'll be able to remember their name).

Also didn't expect a random financial credit section, but 😆

New Arc, new Waifu!!

Damn, Delta is such a good girl. Wasn't hoping for this highlight for her. She certain is the most extrovert girl in the Seven Shadows.

Nice Economy episode. The train scenes were very nice to watch.

Delta wants one hundred babies? 😳

Ah I remember the John Smith moments in the manga lol. He truly is the king of gaslighting lol, everything eventually works out for him.

Cid is unfazed by Delta, kinda wild lmao. Ig he delegates brain power for that stuff elsewhere, like trying to be cool xD

Pretty nice fun episode with Mr. Super Elite Agent lmao.

Never ending plan to watch list...
