Thoughts on Nagito Komaeda and the World Destroyer ep?
I really liked it! The characters were written not only with nuance but like with actual charm. The tone wasn’t extremely confused, when things got serious they stayed serious even when objectively goofy things were going on, like, it was incredibly charming all around. They fit a lot into 21 minutes and it’s pretty impressive all things considered. I do think that because it’s so packed, it might feel a bit rushed but eh, I think it’s still paced competently.
It’s got a lot of good moments. World Destroyer is pretty fascinating as a concept and although I would’ve liked something more concrete and meaty, the subtext and just regular text about Komaeda’s feelings for Hinata do give me a lot of feelings of my own.
Komaeda literally thinks Hinata’s smile is more painful to remember than dying but he still wants to see Hinata (and Kamukura to an extent) so badly that World Destroyer takes on an appearance that’s a mixture of the two... That sure is something.
I liked it a lot.
Also this weird af Naezono dynamic is really fucking funny to me.
