the new animation on the chainsaw days section is cool too its too different than the season one animation and its more anime like than the cinematic like style that japanese people hated about season one

This anime works perfect in a movie format. I had fun. Even more than with the TV series back when it aired, and I'm not even a huge fan of the source material, haha.

Too bad Makima didn't appear in any ministory by the end of either episode, but oh well. We had Denji, Power, Aki, Himeno, Pochita.

This ep's extra content was Power-centered. Well, as cute and funny as they were, Power ain't cute, unless someone likes folks who stink and are obnoxious, lol.

This was more of a recap of the previous season. But in a longer take :-)

Nothing rlly to talk abt the second part of this S1 recap so let's just talk briefly abt the Chainsaw days, yes?

Honestly YES, we know how much of a cowardice, liar, and racist Power is as a whole XDXD

Anyways, decent recap. I'll objectively give it a 7.5/10 but I'll go with a 7 to rate it since yes there's no decimal numbers and I'm leaning towards a 7 due to it just a recap even if there are few cool additions it's still pretty cool allrighty.

Next, it's time to watch the Reze movie since I've alr booked for the 16:25 pm time one for this day weh.

Definitely a good recap before watching the Reze film (which will be in under 12 hours for me). I couldn’t remember much of the tv series to be honest but it did feel like some of the intense and wacky effects were straightened out a little bit which honestly I’m fine with either way.

Also, was it just me, or did they make Makima stand out more in a creepy non-human way? Strongest hunter and her conversation in the ryokan-like setting, I feel like it wasn’t as clear before but it added up better during this watch. Could’ve been the movie format doing its trick honestly, I was watching it weekly back then so it’d make sense that I could’ve forgot some details.

Nonetheless, Reze arc should be fun. Getting acclaimed praise by the looks of it, so I’m pretty excited. Here’s to hoping a sequel project gets announced too. From what I’ve heard from some manga readers, another cour could potentially cover up to the end of the first part of the series, they’ve got to take us that far at least, right?

Just a 3 hour and 30 minute recap with the exception of maybe 2 minutes of new content at the end of each "episode"
But did it's job pretty well.
The highest rating I'll ever give to a recap 6/10 (but it's considered an ova meaning I won't rate it)
