Nahh the other house portion of the episode is so peak. Everything from the directing, imagery, and narration... I had so much goosebumps after seeing Rei showing all of his love to the dog, after all, the dog was maybe the only one who wasnt a complete weirdo in that family. I liked how the imagery was mainly comprised of still images until Rei's embrace was fluidly animated. It packs an emotive punch for sure


Amazing season all around
man.

Haven't really seen that much titles, but this is the first one I can give 10/10. Masterfully written characters, from main to episodic ones. Some of the best character relationships I've seen in media (not necessarily strictly positive ones, e.g. Rei's foster family is also painfully real, but can you really blame anyone there in particular?). Wonderful visuals, too. Didn't expect a show about shogi to become my no.1. Peak.

Hmm, I think the approach they took with the second series' finale was interesting. It felt like a reflection of psychological thoughts molded together. The music and narrative made some of the scenes look impactful.

Kinda liked the scenes shifting from frame to frame as a way to tell the story. I thought the episode felt very real that way.

I think the second season was overall just as good as the first. It was very faithful to the manga and a lot of details that I wanted to see were in it. The finale also had its own heartwarming moments that I think are quite memorable.

No Season 3 announced. Oh well.
Final end card


This season was too better that the first in all terms: Direction, Art, Soundtrack, Character development, context... all.

Agreed.

This season is without a doubt, the best anime I've ever seen, hopefully we'll get season 3 in the near future
