Earlier this week I was able to marathon watch and finish Kokkoku:Moment by Moment. It’s a 1-cour series but the staff managed to pack a lot into each episode, that by the end it feels resolved and wrapped up.

I also enjoyed how they handled the villain, Junji Sagawa. It’s not often the protagonist becomes the antagonist’s parent/caretaker. And instead of the story giving him redemption, they killed him and he was reborn with a fresh start. Juri granted his true wish; his wish being “If I was never born into the Sagawa family, maybe I would have been happy.” Despite her hatred of what Sagawa did to her family, she forgave him, nurtured him, and then continued to care for Junji as her son. Especially when she almost began to lose herself in Stasis. She even admitted that once she sent her son back to real time, she had no other reason to keep going. But luckily she was saved and continued to live with Junji letting him cherish his new life as a Yukawa.

Kokkoku was dark and gritty, similar to Ajin in monster design and plot, and also to The Perfect Insider (although I have not watched this series yet). Grandpa was my favorite character, and probably the second strongest Yukawa after Juri. He was like a guide and the most informative to the world building aspects towards Stasis. The plot was interesting and original although some mysteries stayed... well, mysteries!

I plan on reading the manga soon too.

The Promised Neverland has also started! I can’t believe how good the voice actors are. I even mistook Emma’s and Norman’s voice actresses because Emma sounds so bubbly! But Maaya Uchida is in fact Norman. I hope we get a genuine adaption from the manga which is currently on chapter 118! Get ready for cliff-hanger roller coaster...

Yesterday I ended up dowloading a few apps for a change of pace. The ones I installed and kept are: Pastel Girl, Monster Girl Maker, SimsMobile, and CustomCast. I’m still playing Nikki every day! But I’ve made a lot of progress in Sims, to the point where my characters have gotten married and are planning for a baby. There’s still plenty of time in the month so I’m focusing on getting inspired instead of constantly producing.
