Yasashii sekai e

One of the single greatest piece of animation and storytelling of this season. The creativity of the studio and its staff is elevating the source material to heights never imagined. The episode starts high octane , fights and chasing and then hits you with a punch to the gut. It slows down and explores the emotions and tragedy in what might be one of the best animated montages I have ever seen. It leaves you heartbroken. Dandadan has always been a story which mixes comedy and heartful moments very well and the studio, Sceince Saru knows exactly how to enunciate this beautifully. It is truly very well made and deserves every bit of appreciation it gets.

This episode carries an intense emotional gravity from the very first scene, instantly drawing you into its world. Even without mentioning the stunning animation, the storytelling alone strikes deeply, creating an impact that feels like it pierces straight through you. The Dan Da Dan team has clearly poured so much heart, effort, and dedication into this episode, and I think we can all feel that commitment in every frame. Words alone can't capture the full depth of what I experienced while watching. It's a testament to how attachment and connection can transcend the boundaries of life and death, making the narrative resonate on a universal level. All my love and respect to the incredible Dan Da Dan team for crafting something so powerful.

Unbelievable! This episode not only made me cry but also brought back a flood of memories from several anime: Violet Evergarden (the mother and daughter episode), Erased (its blend of violence and love), Jujutsu Kaisen (its fighting style), and Omori (the mother felt eerily similar to HELLMARI, I mean her hair).

The emotion was so intense and unexpected; this episode truly made my day! I absolutely loved the mother-daughter relationship and the fight scenes, which were masterful.

The magnificent fight, well-written story, and beautiful music compelled me to give this wonderful episode a perfect 10/10 score!

I may have been a little steadfast in wondering why on earth the fight with the yokai from last episode didn't end there. Goodness me I understand it now.

I don't cry often at TV. I mean I can, I have, but it's really got to hit hard. And despite it being primarily a comedy, despite it being primarily a shonen action, despite all that, I was crying at this episode. And that's crazy to me.

Never have I ever seen a more chillingly upsetting episode than this one. Everything about this episode was just incredible. The way the camera panned; the movements in POV made everything feel so real. The contrast between the mute of moments and vivid, bright shots in others. The character design in the backstory, the voice acting range, the music. Literally every part of this episode was beautiful. I felt so crushed as we saw the running, so utterly crushed, so sad, and without closure. And I don't think it's a spoiler to say there was no real build for this. It was just 14 minutes of plot before I began crying this episode. 14 minutes. And yet it didn't feel forced, or made specifically to make me cry. This episode was seamed so flawlessly into the plot, so well thought out, so simple but strong in its own message.

This is, quite genuinely, one of the greatest standalone episodes of television I've seen. I don't think that's unfair. It was incredible. Just the fact this whole episode revolves around the protagonist trying to reclaim his "jewels" and yet I still cried despite how ridiculous the plot of this show can be.

10/10. One of the best episodes of television I've ever watched.

As the title states an absolute masterclass or masterpiece of an episode, easily one of the best storytelling episodes I've seen in anime. So visually beautiful and both so incredibly sad. When I went into this episode it genuinely caught me off guard by this woman's backstory, honestly if anything I was thinking about maybe dropping this anime but this episode really turned everything around for me. Not to mention the beautiful animation and atmosphere that add to the episode the animators and team did a phenomenal job seriously this one really hit my heartstrings deep. The best episode in the entire series imo so far.
