    I got caught up with this series the other day and holy cow these are some incredibly directed episodes!

    Just look at how expressively framed these shots are! I haven’t seen such consistently appealing layouts since 86 – I know it seems like I just screenshotted every scene, but believe me when I say that I’m exercising restraint in this list:

    1:06

    3:30

    3:36

    4:17

    7:39

    8:22

    10:17

    10:56

    11:16

    11:48

    12:36

    13:13

    13:32

    15:03

    18:45

    18:52

    19:52

    20:26

    I’m also really digging the SHAFT/monogatari influence in the storyboard. Not a big surprise after looking at the stafflist, but these are nevertheless some very reminiscent shots:

    2:08

    2:42

    3:55

    OP @ 05:11

    5:53

    7:12

    7:57

    10:09

    10:29

    13:35

    17:32

    18:41

    18:59

    20:32

    Don’t even get me started on the juxtapositions and eye leading… watching this show so far has been such a joy and I’m really looking forward to episode 3 tomorrow!

      And now for two interesting themes I’m picking up on:

      • Clear blue skies seem to come up frequently during moments of danger, both in this episode and the last
      • Blue hair guy likes acting like he’s above the drama and makes that quite literal by perching above everyone else in almost every single one of his shots
