I'm gonna be more forgiving to this show than I normally would since they're essentially operating on half a budget due to them cutting their losses due to a pandemic but not good

I hope Luna makes a reappearance grown up and as a rider.

I suppose the only way to know if I'll enjoy it is to keep watching, so I guess the question I'm looking for an answer to is: have the subsequent episodes been better? |
I think I'm gradually warming up to the show now. I think I find this show more refreshing than Zero One, which I sadly thought was disappointing.

So basically all of this hinges on if you like the characters. |
Easily the best episode of the show to date. My biggest issue with Saber so far has been pacing - every episode has had at least one moment where it felt like a scene was missing and we'd jumped from Point A to Point C with no explanation. Not this week. The pacing was spot-on and the whole story felt complete and satisfying.
I really liked the characters this week, too, even if Mei went full Shunpei (I feel like I'd like her at least 20% more if she would just stand up straight instead of bending over at the waist all the damn time - I have no idea why that bothers me so much, but it just drives me right up the wall). If this is more of the Touma that we're going to get then I will definitely be enjoying him; I actually liked Rintaro taking more of the comic relief role instead. I'm a little surprised that Sword Dad survived (he has a name, I just don't remember it). I've been expecting him to die since he first appeared, but I think that's on me for not reading some of the subtitles in the promo for episode three right. It looks like he's sticking around for at least a little while longer, which is cool. His presence helps enforce the idea that there's a history to this order. Tinkerbell finisher hit a perfect sweet spot between being too weird and too stupid. I still don't know what the hell that was, but I'm a fan. I guess I also appreciated Tassel not recapping the entire episode I just watched during the outro. He's still awful, but I suppose that's something, at least. Quote:

I've yet to really come to a stance on this show aside from "What did I drink" and "I want Buster as my dad." I get the feeling even if this show never really permanently grabs my attention, I'll still like Buster.
At least Mei tried to do something helpful this time. |
Yeah, this was definitely better than the first half of the two-parter. I wonder if that's a common thing? I know Zero-One had it bad, especially during the job contest arc, where the first halves were mostly just okay but the second halves were way better. But I haven't seen other seasons that followed the two-parter format recently enough to remember if they were like that too.
