It's been weeks since I started watching Gachiakuta, and up until now I'm still following its weekly episode update. I already shared here before that I've anticipated its airing, and upon watching the episodes it currently got, the hype I felt way back then definitely didn't go to waste. The first episode immediately hooked me up to their world. I mean, it's similar to how the world works in reality. The social caste, the division—they all feel familiar however, at the same time, there are concepts that are new to me, and one of them is how their power gets unleashed.
It's refreshing that I get to know another power system, and this one felt new because I haven't watched other anime series that focus on discarded stuff. Although the concept of using objects and bringing out the power in them through cherishing them kinda reminds me of *fullbringers from Bleach*, still the MC's ability to maximize the use of things—trash specifically—amazes me. It's so cool to see him take advantage of the full potential of trashes he touches, and with that, I'm looking forward to seeing how he utilizes it in further episodes. His fight with Jabber was really thrilling and entertaining, and I know it wasn't that short, but it felt like that to me because I badly wanted more fight scenes.
As for its pacing, I understand that they're going slowly for now because it still hasn't reached the halfway point of its first season. Since there aren't many actions yet, there are certainly times that it kinda felt boring, but those parts are nice for us to get to know more other characters and also get to know further their lore. And since it has its manga, of course, I already encountered unwanted spoilers which made more curious. Supposedly, I'm going to read the manga before I watch the anime, but I decided against it because, based on my past experience of watching action animes, I stopped following it once I got hooked on its manga.
Bleach, Demon Slayer, Death Note, Hell's Paradise, Tokyo Ghoul, Gintama and the list could go on. I first tried the anime, but when I read their manga, I find myself absorbed by them to the point I can't bring myself to watch the anime again. That's why, for Gachiakuta, I settled on the anime. I'm not good in waiting but anyway I waited for it, and finally it's airing. Today the episode 10 will air, but I'll just watch it tomorrow because I still need to study for our prelim *lol*.
It's still not yet on its climax, so it's quite laidback for now, but certainly I'm anticipating it to get more heated up as they explore that no man's land. *How about you? Is there an ongoing anime that you're following? Or are you binge-watching finished anime as of now?* If you wanted to share, feel free to comment down. And that would be all for today, minna-san~ Thanks for being with me till here, and hope to see you around!
