Wonder Egg Priority’s expected competence proceeds – a focused, workman-like episode that does its job in demystifying the Accas in a gradually grim way, inevitably fitting in snuggly as both a broader, useful narrative addition and a reasonable character piece in isolation to this series’ run by curtain call.
Jaku-Chara Tomozaki-kun gets ever closer to its conclusion and evidently, is only getting stronger along the way.
Horimiya bounces back with an episode of actual substance – anxious relationship drama layered over a spongy cake of insecurity.
Jaku-Chara Tomozaki-kun thankfully gets back on track as it dedicates its latest episode to resuming the thorough erosion of Tomozaki’s social shell – proving to be pretty sweet and fun in the process.
Associating with a character’s drama naturally demands moving beyond yourself, and understanding someone’s own lived experiences and resulting perspective even if it’s mostly foreign to you.
The positive streak for Wonder Egg Priority continues, extending a favorable combination of grim inquiry, intimacy, and insightful character vignettes for all to enjoy.
This felt like a return to form for Horimiya – decisive in the bigger picture with what it wants to accomplish and competent in executing its moment to moment to ideas, while most importantly, not coming across as glaringly ill-paced like certain previous showings.
