I'm now extra surprised I didn't remember these episodes since Garren's Jack Form debuts here, but I'm also not at all surprised I didn't remember that a form debuted here because it's as if this writer goes out of his way to make those feel like afterthoughts. Still though, I can't say this wasn't fun, and as brief as it was, I kinda got invested in this conflict of food stalls? I might have found stronger feelings for it than I ever did some of the BOARD stuff...

The success of the Ryou story puts the absence of a Hajime story in such stark relief. It's like, if these episodes found a thing they were trying to say about Hajime, they'd be flawless. But instead, Hajime gets his memories back, story's over.

Ha ha, thanks! It's been a neat experience, talking about these shows.

Hikawa is kind-of the proto-Tachibana, isn't he? Such a weird disaster of a man, but worth rooting for all the same. He tries so hard to be worthy of helping people that he keeps failing them. But, man, when he finally figures it all out!
