86 2nd Season | E2: Many questions.

I will admit seeing Shin and everyone live a normal life is oddly strange. Seeing them in a world where there is no feeling of depression, pain or war is off putting to say the least. To Shin’s group, this freedom they were awarded makes them feel uncomfortable, which is understandable because they lived knowing…

Wow, I always knew that Shin and company were still alive, I read it (sadly), but before I did take a gander at the wiki, I always knew deep down that they were all still alive. To see them together and not dead gives me a nice feeling because I’ve developed a connection with everyone…

I remember going into this anime, I mentioned how I was going into it with extremely low expectations in large part because the whole Military, Mecha genre wasn’t something that really appealed to me. However, 86 – Eighty Six didn’t really feel like an anime that focused heavily on those aspects and that’s something that…

Episode Eleven Thoughts What’s weird is that I couldn’t help but feel a little emotional watching this episode. Seeing these characters experience things they never got to experience or re-experiencing that were stripped away from them was very powerful. It also didn’t help that I was on edge the whole time because I knew that…

Episode Ten Thoughts There was just something so peaceful about the opening few minutes of episode ten. Maybe it’s because the surviving members of the Spearhead were back in the 86th district, a place where a lot of them called home. Everything about the district felt vibrant and lively compared to the trashy headquarters they…

Episode Nine THoughts Episode Nine is by far, the best episode of the series. Oh my goodness, this episode was just perfect. Everything about it was wonderful, it’s climax, the major fight scene, all the emotions that were shown throughout the anime, and most importantly, how this episode ended. Everything was just perfect. As a…

Episode EIGHT Thoughts You know what, Shin reminds me of Sasuke from Naruto. I do not know why, but that’s definitely the kind of vibe he gives off. But obviously, Shin is the ‘nicer’ version. Episode eight was very much a rollercoaster of emotions; you literally felt everything. It was emotional from the start, and…

Episode Seven Thoughts Whenever I see these timestamps throughout the episode, for example “August 25th, Stellar Year 2148” I cannot help but think of the first season of Sword Art Online, when everyone was blitzing through the floors to fight the eventual ‘final’ boss. While I understand that these timestamps are there to simulate days/months…

Episode six Thoughts Ah yes, the #setupepisode. Everyone’s favourite episode, let’s dedicate one whole episode to setting the stage for what’s to come in the upcoming episodes. If you don’t already know, I really dislike setup episodes because of how blatantly obvious they are. I do not want to know what’s going to happen next….

Episode Five Thoughts We finally got to see a little bit of Lena and what had happened to her father. While we still do not know much about it, I think we can probably assume that it was shot down. Even though we still know very little about her, we know a lot more about…
