The show is really taking its time making sure it’s a natural progression between this found family-daughter-father mechanic. Then, the episode clearly revolves around these side characters, and Itsuka and Nagomu fail to advance their relationship. It goes for a more logical approach, like what would this person say at this moment that makes sense with the conversation sort of thing. But instead goes for a more subtle approach, weaving in that this person is still going to be loved, and things are going to keep being the same, they are still going to be friends, but without saying it outright. Where the acceptance is smeared all over the screen.

Anime has a weird tendency when dealing with this sort of thing, to have characters either call the other person a deviant and get way out of line, or have the other character accept their tendencies, but not in an in-your-face kinda way. However, Nagomu isn’t bothered by it at all. And well that’s on toxic masculinity and the fragile male ego. Why is that? I think it’s because he wasn’t sure how Nagomu was going to respond, or how he was going to take the news that Saki is a crossdresser, sometimes in order to relieve some stress. Saki clearly got nervous when Nagomu casually walked up to (her) him on the night street. Here’s the thing, if you ask me, which clearly you didn’t, yet you’re getting it anyway, boys can dress like girls and girls can dress like boys, clothing should be universal, yet we hold prejudice over the way we present ourselves to the world because it might confuse the little brains of straight cis men.

I mean I guess, however, I do not have the energy or the high brow language expected of RC writers to break down how exactly and to which part of the LGBTQ+ Saki belongs.

The reason they give is that he feels freer when dressed as a woman and it’s sort of like a coping mechanism for him. This guy quickly falls in love with just seeing a pic of this lady and immediately barters the shop in order to meet this female – Well turns out all along it was Saki, but cross-dressing as a woman. It turns out the heir of the family had seen a picture of a girl on Saki’s phone as he was delivering their order last week. The Tsukiyami family suddenly cancels their weekly order. I mean the show did make it pretty obvious by putting that character in a hoodie, even though we’re in the middle of summer here.Įpisode 04 is split into two parts, the first one dealing with a long-time client of the sweet’s shop. Since we might have gotten a tease as to who exactly is Itsuka’s father, and it’s someone who is closer to Nagomu than we think. I’m also in the middle of wrapping up the prelim writing of my next novel – but that’s whatever, you’re not interested in that.Īnd now I finally had time to sit down with Deaimon and it’s really such a shame because apparently, I missed the biggest week Deaimon has had. Well first of all I apologize for missing out last week, a family emergency came up, and I had to do a little bit of traveling, but all is fine now. 「風青し」 (Kaze Aoshi) “A Blue Wind Rustling Fresh Leaves” /「暑気払い」(Shokibarai) “Beating the Summer Heat
