Just started watching this and it's really good. Very Aria-ish.

Is it weird that it took me 6 episodes to realize that this was from the Aria author?

>>16547I love rain.
Wish we had a rainy season here in western Europe, but here it just rains on totally random occassions and it's been raining not often enough lately.
Good Amanchu episode nonetheless, caught myself smiling multiple times during it's run, super embarrassing to be honest.

So, like, during the opening of episode 9 I was nonchalantly thinking how Teco has the habit of associating her good memories with a cellphone photo, and all sorts of stuff around this habit of hers. Then Teco decided to do internal monologue mentioning some of the stuff I was thinking. Then Ane-chan decided to comment on it too. And it wasn't the slightest annoying, overdrawn or over-explained. I usually am fucking annoying if the same thing is forced down my throat three fucking times in a row, but that was not the case here. Nothing was being forced down, it was just the natural progression of things. And all three times were different. I had my own much more extensive analysis, Teco had a distinct "hers" approach to describing this habit, and Ane-chan boiled it down to one sentence in an Ane-chan-like way. So the end result was not annoyance, but awe.
I guess that's what great writing feels like.
By the way, she actually said HAHII.
HAHII.

>>16939And the principal is voiced by Gendou. Somebody add him in anidb/mal.
That aside, it was kind of strange to see him take a small kitten as the bride of Aria. Genji much?

>>17125I was like you, but I finally gave in.
This episode is really gay.
Anyway, 9/10. Fuck JC Staff, it would have been better than Aria if it weren't for the bland animation. As usual, they manage only the goofy moments half-decently.

T-there is another season?
I stopped watching anime completely last year, I can't imagina all the things I've missed.

>>24729So, this time the Cat is meant to be creepy, and the anime isn't swapping most of her role for a small girl. Huh.
I can't complain, out of the three Aria seasons I loved The Natural the most.

Fuck this arc. The first episode was good and barely acceptable, but the other two just went too far into this super natural shit. And the ending was obvious as fuck. I was hoping their relationship won't be complete bullshit, but it certainly became so.

>>24866It wouldn't feel like an Amano work without the supernatural. And this time we have actual worldbuilding around the supernatural elements, which is .. something.
Though, this arc wasn't quite as good as the first episode with the dreamspace and Teko.
Anyway. Whose relationship became bullshit? Nee-san's first love wasn't much of a love and was more of a spur of the moment, and, fittingly, she got over it real fast. Mato-chan-sensei and Peter … well, it's clear Peter was designed as part of Mato-chan-sensei's story, and not as a separate character who just happens to be in that story. But. I think it's fitting. After all, the story has that Genji Monogatari thread in it.

This season needed more HAZUKASHII SEIFU KINSHI in it. Looking forward to the next season. Maybe we'll get an arc about the brother this time. That should be fun, Amano writing a boy-centric story.
