It's so weird, because that type of seemingly-unnecessary specificity bugged the shit out of me in Kuuga, but I find the attention to detail in Hibiki relaxing and charming. I feel like it's because that meticulousness in Kuuga was mostly in service to increasing the tension, while here it's to create mindfulness, tranquility.

Like, this is an episode where one of the main characters spends half of it on a train, and then oversleeps and misses his stop. That's the dilemma. And I love it. I love the goddamn brass (section) balls of making that a/the major story for the episode. It's what I talk about when I say that I don't need a monster fight to enjoy an episode of Hibiki. What monster fight could replace the feeling of some kid travelling to tell a friend some good news?
