Kyon feels like he's basically just Visual Novel Protaganist #06, and yet it's basically working so far and I can't quite place my finger on why.

That was a blast from the past. I'm really grateful for this simulwatch for a lot of reasons, one of them being that I'm able to use the phrase 'blast from the past'.

Theres a payoff for this, Kyon is very deliberately written and presented. If you are interested after these first two episodes you will likely enjoy what the rest has to offer.

Im uploading this first gif now because I have a question for someone who may speak Japanese or may know something about it: what was up with this moment? Ive never really understood it, why does Mikuru correct herself?

I don't think this simulwatch is gonna work with my schedule until later in the week, I had something come up today and I know I'll be out of the house this time on Wednesday.

So yeah, that was an enjoyable first two eps: from the awkward filming and lack of editing to Kyon and his words. I'll be looking forward to future simulwatch days.

The first ep is brilliant because they made it look amatuer as hell but it's still incredibly well directed

Another good Aya Hirano performance is in Parasyte when she says "well maybe I should pleasure you" or whatever
