People are buged with "she is a dolphin, so the type of tank was wrong".


Come on, you miss completely the point.

The author or whoever wrote the episode just wanted to show: When there is PREJUDICE, even who appears to be an ally, in fact doesnt even think in treat the other like an equal with the same respect.

The moment Nina turned into a Dolphin, she become a "thing" to the people there, and not a person like you or me anymore. It can be perpetrated even by people who say they "defend your cause", but never want you to be equal.

The analogy is so right, and more impressive is how part of audicence doesnt ring a bell.

Already suspected something fishy to be going on with the party but bit suprised to see them be so accepting of Nina's dolphin form for a moment.
Silly humans dolphins can't breath underwater, that's basic animal trivia. (still pretty sad how they acted as allies but actually were against beastmen)
Well nice to see Michiru be human for a moment and make some friends with a girl her age.

I was kinda confused by what was happening with the tank thing.;; Some people are saying they were too drunk to understand what what going on... or really
I think they were also trying to get across the idea that as it is now, beastmen and humans just can't stay together even if they accept each other-- further emphasized by what the girls in the bathroom said. I think they were trying to get that across, but perhaps there was a different way to go about it.
Still, nice episode.


I think you're right. That part of the scene was showing while there wasn't necessarily malice between beastmen and humans, they don't really understand what each other need. Even if she was an actual dolphin, they need air too since they are mammals.

In conclusion, not sure if the party girl was misinformed, or just dumb.


Maybe misinformed and dumb. My takeaway though was that she used Nana as a prop for self-promotion. She and her guests want to be seen as pro-beastman when in reality they've never really taken the time to really learn about them. Their activism doesn't go beyond social media posting.

Michiru can turn into her Human form now!!

Nina and Michiru has developed a friendship, i wonder if it will be relevant to the plot ahead...

Shirou and Michiru are a target of some shady guy's now. Seems we got more trouble...F

Nina seems like a nice girl, but her curiosity got the better of her it seems. Also, it seems that Michiru misses her friend, and hopefully they will see each other again one day. That CEO guy seems like he has something sus planned.

The new girl is so cute! She reminded me of primarina (popplio's final form)

Loved the party. It was basically like a blackface party but instead of acting out stereotypes they were fascinated by them (from afar) and were trying to be allies. I thought the tank scene was pretty straightforward and don't understand what everyone is so confused about.

Michiru can change back now, I really like Nina as a character it's so easy to make a character like her rich and snobby but they did a good job. Really enjoyed this episode and the show so far

Just a very alright episode. Pacing was a little off, some things didn't make a lot of sense like how did Nina get in the aquarium and then drowned after like a minute, despite being a dolphin? And didn't feature a lot of wolf dude, which was a little disappointing. I did enjoy the rest though.

I like this episode because it shows conflict and cruelty not through Racism but ignorance.

The comments those girls made in the bathroom were racist but they didn't openly express that racism to dolphin girl herself. But even without expressing racist sentiments to her they were still ignorant of who she was, what she was like, or even how her biology worked

A bit annoyed that Michiru didn't explain to that stupid woman that dolphins breathe air like humans (even if they live in the water, they're not the same as fish), and nor did she say to her that she almost killed her by trapping her in a tank. At least tell her off and she would've apologised, probably. Anyway, it's still an interesting moment since a lot of people irl don't know that dolphins need air to breathe.

Because dolphins need air to breathe. They're not like fish.

Michiru managed to turn back, although temporarily it seems.

Yeah, it's ironic seeing so many people in comments having no idea about the water-tank scene. Humans in this episode apparently also had no clue dolphins need air to breathe.

Michiru is likely exceptionally rare beastman since superpowers don't seem to be the norm.

unless this show totally goes to shit at some point it's definitely underrated
