Yay for more Working! Poplar-tan~
Fractale 11: I'm currently refraining from just straight out refusing to acknowledge that this series even existed. You could already tell the pace of the episode was quick and rushed, but combined with that joke of a revelation, it's like Yamakan just wanted to revel in the viewer's last minute shock and horror. I mean,
seriously? Talk about 1 step forward and 2 steps back. On the whole, the show started out with a bunch of really good ideas, and a genuinely unique worldview, but once it realized it was too inadept to actually pull off those ideas successfully it just dragged the exposition along until it could finish everything off with smoke and mirrors to confuse and hope the viewer didn't notice.
You've lost my favor, Yamakan, not even I am willing to defend you anymore.

On another note, Key just unveiled their opening animation for
Rewrite, with awesome music and animation done by WhiteFox (Katanagatari, Utawarerumono, Steins;Gate)

Oh how I hope when the anime series rolls around they really do boot KyoAni and let WhiteFox handle it. Sick and tired of KyoAni's Key Template Mode.
