You just reasoned how(not why) they employ such banal writing, which isn't the point. The point is the why; because the result is not intriguing, enlightening, entertaining, or particularly good in any sense.


Except you haven't given a valid reason why you think it's bad. Most of what you complained about was explained, fits the situation or is just extreme nitpicking.

Maybe somebody has to check his Crime Coefficient.

I wonder if it is this Sibyl thing that is the culprit?

This is only the third episode. It's easier to get the audience accustomed to the characters and the setting, through this formula. The plot will thicken later.

Wow!! The awesomeness of this episode is hard to deal!

I liked howt they showed that using or not of the sybil sistem doesn´t change the fact that under stressful situations people can get "cloudy". Also, bullying as a relieving method seems to never fall of popularity. It was hard to see and at the same time easy to foresee it´s result.

Akane is showing more resolve to do things by her sence of justice, even if she is somewhat of an airhead from time to time (not that is bas). I expect more development from her charcter.

I'm liking this anime more and more. Just brilliant stuff.

Those who accuse it of a *monster of the week formula* fail to understand or choose to ignore that these episodes help us getting acquainted with the characters; their talents, building up their personality and see the interactions between them. Plus we get to see how the Sybil system can be bypassed.

Moreover, how do we know that the murders at the factory aren't relevant to the main story of the anime?

For a girl fan service can be just the top of a male as much as breasts are for us on the female parts. Plain and simple.

The people who find think this will be purely episodic and not enjoyable obviously never seen Ghost in the Shell SAC. I.G will most likely use the same route it did with the main plot in between small cases.

I'm really not liking the characters besides Shinya and Akane, they don't seem to have any personality yet. Or atleast not a strong one. I hope that changes in the next few episodes, there's still plenty of time.
idk why I was here but I'm prob back to playing Dragon's Dogma 2 again when you read this

26:15 refers to 02:15 the next day. A show might be listed as airing on Friday at 25:00, which translates to Saturday at 01:00. This is quite common for TV programming, or at least for anime. Those are the only schedules I occasionally look at.

The setting and dominators keep getting more awesome. Stop before it's too late! It's only setting us up for a huge letdown!

Or, we could just hope this is the greatest anime of the season. That could work.

Akane is quickly becoming less hate-able too.

Well that's why parents should start raising their kids to not be so needy. And actually grow a pair early on, so they aren't so clingy/dependent. Maybe if they do that, people won't grow up being so stupid either.

That doesn't bother me so much. I have some friends from Japan/China/Taiwan and it's incredible how pale they are. Hell, the fad in Japanese culture is to actually have pale skin (in contrast to Western culture where being tan is a fad).

^ Paleness of skin is considered a big positive beauty factor in Japan.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Actually it is not just Japan, China has similar concept of beauty (and it has a long history too). So I won't call it a fad. It is just that the push in advertisement about having a pale skin is much more prevalent in Japan.

I'm aware, symbv. You don't need to tell me. lol

As for fad, you're being a bit technical there. When I said "fad", I wasn't implying that it's only been popular in pop cultural regards and yes, I'm aware it's not just Japan, it's the whole region.

I don't think I am being technical here though, because the essence of the meaning of the word "fad" is that it is temporary, not how narrow its extent is. In China/Japan the love of pale skin went back centuries, so it is not a fad at all.
