I never thought I would get so little of Koichi, Pop, & Knuckleduster this season.

Maybe they'll surprise me with the CC flashback; I doubt it, but we'll see...

If I had to sum up what it felt like being a Marvel fan while the early MCU was building, it’s basically the same feeling when Roger calls Garp “The Hero of God Valley” in the One Piece live-action.

The tower is under attack!

I’m curious to see if grouping the heroes together ends up backfiring and shifts the fight onto CC and Koichi.

How these next few episodes play out will be interesting. It feels like the season needs to do something memorable to avoid being remembered as “the Aizawa flashback season” at this point.

C.C. showing off to the crowd

Competing to see whose Quirk shines brightest, Japan's greatest heroes!

See? This is my baby, who was born just this year!

Wait. Chris! You didn't show the picture to anyone, did you?!

I’m not going to lie, I totally zoned out during this scene and had to rewatch it to make sure I didn’t miss anything.
The C.C. stuff just does nothing for me personally, and even with the hero cameos I found it really hard to care about what was happening on screen.

You wanna get snipped?! I can snip ya!

Eraser and Kaniyashiki in suits

It's fine! Fine, fine, fine!

Eraser and Kaniyashiki in hippy disguises

I mostly expected Eraser to disappear after his flashback, thinking it was about time for him to become a teacher. I’m glad I was wrong, because teaming him up with Kaniyashiki was easily the highlight of the episode!

I'll take a fan, and a towel, and...

Deku was a Captain Celebrity fan?!
Unforgivable!

The way Shiraishi was fiending ever since they arrived in Goryokaku it was only a matter of time before he went over the edge!

#Anime #GoldenKamuy 10
OMG THEY FOUND ITTTTT!!! Noda and the anime crew did a great job setting it up falling over their heads in such a visually dramatic fashion. LOL at Shiraishi just being absolutely feral about it.

Shiraishi, Sugimoto, and Asirpa with gold raining down

The Ainu gold!

Sugimoto smiles with the gold raining around him

Asirpa with the gold raining around her

It’s been such a long journey with this group, and this was a wonderful scene to close the episode on.
Shiraishi, Sugimoto, and Asirpa bathed in the gold we’ve been searching for the entire series. Even with doom bearing down on them, the moment felt incredibly cathartic.

Shiraishi, Sugimoto, and Asirpa digging deeper

Tsurumi arrives!

Tsurumi plots his attack

I thought this would also explain the army’s dogged pursuit, that they were trying to cover up the Ainu’s legitimate claim to the land. Instead, it seems they were just as ignorant about the ledger as everyone.
Thankfully, half the gold still remaining leaves the upcoming clash feeling very weighty.

Asirpa digging

Paydirt!

Vast tracts of land, spread all throughout Hokkaido.

was the kamuy we really needed!

I actually love this resolution for the Ainu gold. It makes Wilk come across as much more clever, since the future of the Ainu was already secured rather than setting off a gold rush.
I also loved everyone else sharing my disappointment at the possibility that there might be no gold left.

Golden Kamuy Final Season - Episode 10🧵

"That's it? Where's the Ainu Gold?!"
"That's as good as gold, sir. Those are IOUS."

I got a good chuckle out of Home’s response to taking in the orphans: “Of course they can’t take refuge on a warship, but we can drop our non-combatants there while we fight!”

All in all, this scene was a fantastic sendoff for our heroes as we charge into the final showdown with Knives.

Milly with a bug on her face

I don't understand it, no.

What do you mean Milly comes from a family of bug ranchers that can talk through the bugs?!
As much as I’ve enjoyed her addition to the cast, I really wish we had focused more on her and Meryl than what we’ve gotten this season.

Livio goes airborne

Oh! My bones!

Trigun Stargaze - Episode 9🧵

I'm glad they're able to keep the slapstick humor that feels uniquely Trigun, even as we ratchet up to the final arc, but I’m concerned that there’s a lot left to do in such little time.
#TrigunStargaze #anime

Yeah, I'm gonna be a doctor.

I could get rejected just for being a girl? Seriously?

Asa pulls back from her goals for fear of standing out, but Chicchi gets burned and ends up standing out because of it.
I’m so curious what this new girl’s relationship with Emiri and Asa will be and what it means for both of them.
It’s also funny that she looks more than a little like Makio…

Emiri pondering

I can't ever quit being her friend now.

I definitely think so.

Won't it get old?

It hurts to see Emiri talk like this and ignore Asa’s texts while Asa continues to isolate herself.
It was cool to see Emiri’s love interest. I wonder if Emiri coming out to Asa might be what helps repair the divide that's growing between them.

We're coming up on the anniversary of your parents' death.

I'm a grand old adult myself, but I'm still just a kid in front of my mom.

I was pretty shocked to see that a year had already passed since Asa began living with Makio.
I loved Juno’s talk with Makio about how there’s no expiration date on her relationship with Asa. It doesn’t end when she moves out; she’s essentially become another mother to her.

We need to bring back Atomic Purple gaming accessories.

Dropping its standard upbeat soundtrack for this scene and switching to a more subdued piece made the moment between our two leads hit extra hard. This is going to be a tough show to let go of in a few weeks.
We even got to see Suzuki’s next transformation!

Tani struggling to stay awake

Tani-kun, I'm looking forward to knowing the seventeen-year-old you.

These two are just too cute. Tani struggling to stay awake so Suzuki could wish him a happy birthday was pure sugar.
Tani’s date plans going awry while Suzuki had a great time felt so on-brand for both of them and really showed why they work so well together.

And on your birthday, too, huh, Taira?

TairAzuma

I love that Taira has just accepted that his job is the new hangout spot for all his friends.
The TairAzuma crumbs were strong this episode. I hope we get to see them together this season and get a check-in with Nishi and Yamada before we say goodbye.

Seeing him pull this move was fun and I thought the exact same thing. 👇

Put your clothes on. Then sit. I'll give you 100 points.

Higuruma and Itadori

Higuruma adds a rule

Besides, being around you makes me hate myself even more.

I absolutely adore this resolution for Higuruma: refusing to join Itadori’s quest, but fully acknowledging and accepting responsibility for his own crimes after seeing Itadori’s example and forging his own path toward redemption.

Amazing episode.

Higuruma! I want a retrial! One more time!

of mass murder in Shibuya

Yes. I killed them.

You didn't kill them!

I can’t remember the last time a shonen fight got to me like this.
Itadori’s refusal to deny the atrocities Sukuna perpetrated in Shibuya was absolutely perfect, and Higuruma’s realization of what Itadori was going through really got to me and took this to a whole new level.

Higuruma's Domain expansion

Itadori is pressed

This is the evidence provided by Judgeman for this case.

Judgeman cannot refuse them.

It’s crazy how much more I enjoy JJK fights when the cursed techniques are scaled down in power and ratcheted up in concept.
Higuruma’s power perfectly reflects the kind of person he is and makes this fight so memorable.

Between Higuruma and Nanami, the love that JJK has given tired, middle-aged salarymen cannot be overstated.
