erased

so I don't typically watch anime

 

the only one I ever seriously followed was Yu-Gi-Oh when I was a kid, but even then I stopped once it hit GX because I didn't care for any of the new characters

 

but I have recently started watching Erased (AKA Boku Dake ga Inai Machi) and I must say, I am enjoying it so far. There are only three episodes out right now (episode 4 releases this Friday) but I expect there will be many more. It's based on a manga of the same name and stars a character named Satoru, who has an ability that he calls 'revival'. Every so often he'll be transported back in time roughly 1-5 minutes, before a horrible incident occurs nearby.

 

anyway, that's all for now. time to go start watching Game of Thrones since a kind friend lent me all of Season 1.

Game of Thrones is quite explicit. 

 

tsk tsk. 

 

*walks out*

 

wow you really told him

 

 

 

anyway I've also been watching Erased, so far it's probably one of the best new anime I've seen in a while. good stuff and I'm really eager to see where it goes next.

Actually Erased comes out on Thursdays but yeah. It's good anime. Definitely the best one out of the ones I'm watching right now, and I'm watching like 11.

 

I just hope it stays that way, mystery series really depend on a satisfactory ending to either make or break the whole thing. Considering it's just a 12 episode series pacing could be an issue as well...So far very good though.

that's good news for me!

more good news! Glad I do appear to be watching a good one.

 

I was unaware that only 12 episodes are planned so far; I think that might help to keep it concise versus stretching the mystery too far. But it might also mean the plot moving along too fast, so who knows.

My concern is that it's not an anime original, it's adapting a manga that from my understanding is fairly long. They're aiming to adapt the whole thing (though the manga isn't even over) so whether they can pull it off without rushing it or leaving things out is gonna be interesting to see. I haven't read it so I wouldn't be able to tell, but if it starts getting messy it's gonna show.

 

I'm optimistic about it, but the last series from this director I watched I liked for 3 episodes and hated for 21 more. That was probably more because of the source material, but it still makes me wary. Hope it stays strong though, it's just so great so far.
