GATCHAMAN CROWDS – 01
「Avant-garde」
I’m almost tempted to reuse my flavor text from Tsuritama last year, because one thing’s for sure. You ain’t gonna see anything else as refreshingly outrageous as Gatchaman Crowds this season.

「血塗られた未来」 (Chinura Reta Mirai)
“The Blood-Soaked Future”
This is a magical girl show not about what it’s like to risk death, but what it’s like to kill.
「まだ目を見れない ―反撃前夜①―」 (Mada Me o Mire Nai ―Hangeki Zenya ①― )
“Can’t Look Into His Eyes ―Prelude to the Counterattack (1)―”
Now that’s how you start a second half.
「誕生!魔法少女!」 (Tanjou! Mahou Shoujo!)
“Birth! A Magical Girl!”
Magic, plot, excellent comedy, and some of the best pacing I’ve seen in a while. Everything flows naturally as we’re eased into the action. As a storyteller, I am impressed. It was like Prisma Illya was made for the screen.
「約束」 (Yakusoku)
“Promise”
When you think about it, the Fool tarot card fits Touma to a T.
「お仕事は, 慌てず, 騒がず, 投げ出さず」 (Oshigoto wa, Awatezu, Sawagazu, Nagedasazu)
“Work, Unfazed, Fuss, Tossed Aside”
That OP is borderline hypnotic.
