    Created an Ani.Social account SPECIFICALLY to talk about this episode. OMG, what a masterpiece of animation and storytelling.

    At the start, we care very little about Acrobatic Silky. At the end of the episode, we care about Acrobatic Silky so much it brings tears to our eyes. All without lengthy dialogue or any narrative exposition. And the visuals… just mindblowing.

    So much media uses cheap tricks to try to convey drama or pull at the audience’s heartstrings. Dan Da Dan achieves it with quality storytelling.

      Yeah, this episode really did a lot of showing rather than telling to convey the story. Sometimes that can be confusing, but they paired it with some really good direction and animation to really convey a lot of emotions. Really, really well done episode.
