Another fun episode, ep 2 had the best mix of the crew and action and overall I think they've gotten better each week. I expected it to be more non-stop thrills style but it's actually feeling very GITS-like in its pacing with the mix of investigation and action.

Well, this is a 3 episode rule point. If this wasn’t on Toonami I’d be bailing. Each episode feels like it’s maybe 10 minutes long, with the other 12 filled with padding scenes and some of the most god awful dialog I have ever heard in modern anime. I understand now where the reviewers were coming from calling it a poorly paced slog.

Didn’t even think about that but maaaaaybe. Also when Axel stole some clothes there was a very Dandy looking jacket.

White men can't jump... except for Axel it would seem.

He’s at least part Latino but yeah.

LMAOOOOO the same cop a third time and he walks right by him. This is totally gonna be a running gag.

How did he not recognize Axel right next to him? 🤣

That worked? Guess grandma's pretty famous. They didn't mean any harm?! Kid almost lost his hand!

That’s not a bracelet you try to steal! Also seems to have hacking functionality built in so it’s not just a burden I guess.

Watanabe has always been an ally

People will definitely direct their anger toward DeMarco for how inclusive this show becomes despite Watanabe’s history of being more inclusive than most. Trans characters are a particular hot button right now in the US and also considered trendy to include in any left wing produced media that doesn’t want to bow to Trump’s regime.

I think it was also how they had that blue baseball cap to go with it that made me think it was an intentional easter egg, since that was part of Spike's cleaner disguise too.

Yes! Went back and looked, good one.

It’s telling in a season with Watanabe at the helm, the best animated show this season…is Yaiba: Samurai Legend.

Do we know how much DeMarco is steering the writing?  I mean people want to blame him.

Bet you anything /co/ would've flipped their shit at Jill's existence if they weren't down due to the hack earlier last week.

Spoiler

Ingenious of the writing team to make her deadname something other than Jack, too.
