I have a really soft spot for the manga series, and I'm glad to see it being animated. So far the animation has been fine, I hope that it's kept this way.

...Sensei doesn't want to become a hero but an hero.

I love every frame of this. I think I found my anime of the season.

So this show bothers me fairly greatly on some level due to the changing of a major historical event (major in terms of this show's characters, that is). For those curious

I enjoyed the offbeat humor and poking fun at the isekai genera, but I’m not sure I want a whole season of it. Hopefully expanding the cast and him finding a reason to live will move things along.

I didn't learn until after watching the episode, but honestly I find it really gross to have an anime based around a famous person from within living memory, who famously died by suicide, on a comedy journey to commit suicide. It also feels really gross to portray him as this terrible of a person. Like, from the fact that he forgot his girlfriend even existed, it seemed like she wasn't actually a partner but rather an accessory for him to take with him in death. And then we see him talk about how he's enjoying watching the catgirl die ?? Without the historical context, this seemed like an edgy and distasteful comedy where the jokes fell flat, but with context it's taken to a whole new level.

0/5

I was skeptical at first for encouraging suicide but in the end he choose to live another day. That's enough for me. I will keep watching, but this isn't something to recommend to others.

This is first time I am hearing about Dazai so it will be interesting. Maybe I will do some side reading.
