Overly said as it may be, episode 3 was better than the previous 2 episodes as the Abyss was an interesting place and has interesting inhabitants thanks to original anime material. In addition, the music used was great and I’m starting to get used to the animation.


I thought the inclusion of the little creeper at the start of the episode made the Abyss more creepy than how it was portrayed in the manga. The only danger Oz faces in the manga were shown in a couple of frames whereas the lengthening of the scenes in the manga and addition of new ones make the Abyss become the terrifying place as mentioned in descriptions. The seemingly harmless chain Oz encountered was pretty amusing as well.

The music included fit well and I like them, hopefully there are still more. The animation on the other hand doesn’t look that bad now, I’ve probably gotten used to the colours used. I’m inclined to comment on Alice possessing Oz, it’s scary that she cuddles herself and smirks in her original body but it was completely comical when she did that in Oz’s body.

The anime is currently covering a chapter per episode, given it’s a 2 cour series it may only be able to reach volume 7 at this rate, viewers may be in for speeding up of plot development halfway through the series.

P.S.
B-rabbit seems better when in appears briefly in bright lighting than in last episode’s fight scene. It’s front teeth showing was an added bonus which makes it seem more likeable.
