Gosh! Finally able to catch up after been busy a few days ago. I will try to keep it as short as possible because my real meat is going to be next episode. These few episodes made me realize that maybe Zero One is more suited for this single adventure one-episode formula, especially in ep 31. However, that by no means the Job Arc was a bit of let down because of the two-parter formula. That arc has some missteps outside of its two-parter formula. This continuous episodic formula that harkens the early phase of Zero One seems to be the most effective and the most enjoyable experience for audience.
Unlike most people who easily put ep 29 as their favorite episode, if you ask me, ep 30 is my most beloved episode of Zero One. Even if Aruto lost last week, there’s some aura in this episode where I felt Aruto had more freedom and less restrain than several episodes ago. Even in suit, there’s not a single of hesitations when Zero One beat Thouser. It was as if Takahashi and Shibasaki told Fumiya to just a bit more relaxed during the shooting and let Yuya Nawata to wreck a havoc and pull his max potential during the fight scene. All in all, up until this point, I can confidently declare that this episode had the best show off for Aruto both in and out of suit.
The next two episodes are just your typical solid episodes of Zero One. Those two are a complete solid of episode. I appreciate that they didn’t give two-parter again after the Job Arc. Honestly, I was also as surprised as Die when they could still pull their groove back by going back to single episode adventure. Constant beating of Gai can be a deal breaker here. After experiencing Cronus beaten up for several episodes, I was worried if Takahashi would make the same step. Still, I’m glad you and the others enjoyed Gai beaten to the pulp for these episodes. I just enjoy how many times that shoved Gai’s tattered clothes for these couple of episodes. That’s some dedication in the make up department.
