Bungo Stray Dogs Episode 10: Rashomon and the Tiger

So, the entire motivation behind his actions was jealousy? That's not what I expected, though it's not bad either. I'm particularly disappointed. I certainly don't like that the final impression is that Atsushi feels protected by the agency when they literally could have helped him much sooner. This anime is strange; it has some really good episodes, but this one is definitely one of the "it doesn't make sense" ones. By the way, it suffers too much from the "If they'd stop talking stating the obvious, they'd have time to rescue people" trope.

This episode is pure chaos in the best way. Chuya and Dazai Osamu throwing hands was already iconic, then Atsushi vs Akutagawa Ryunosuke just went crazy. Kyoka’s choices?? Emotional damage. The ship fight had me stressed the whole time.

I miss Chuuya and Dazai’s bantering, so chaotic and hilarious. The action scenes keep me wide awake, screaming and clenching my fist with the fight tension. The animation on the action scenes were really good, I love how they emphasize the different effects on the skills and highlights some good details. Kunikida definitely saved the day for me!
