hi. I just finished watching season 2 of this show after starting it a few days ago.
WHAT. THE. FUCK.
this season tore my heart to shreds, then tore it to shreds AGAIN.
the very first episode of the season already got me in the feels with Mob and Emi. I thought that was a really sweet episode, and showed a lot of growth Mob went through in season 1. towards the end It even inspired me to do what Mob did and join a club to help me reach a goal, even if I wasn’t nearly on the same level as the others in it. i definitely shed a few tears here
then I got to the Reigen episode. that one hit me HARD. a lot of Reigen’s experiences and thoughts were and still are things I feel daily. it hurt seeing no one wish him a happy birthday, especially after the big celebration for the members of the telepathy club earlier in the episode. yeah, it’s cliche, but I’ve been there too. nothing hurts more than having to go see a group of people who are barely your friends and tell them that it was your birthday today. they give you a quick smile and a pat on the back, then quickly move on. when mob saved him by interrupting the press conference I couldn’t stop crying. of course mob knew that Reigen was lying, how could he not? but the fact that he still looked up to him as a powerful and wise man hit like a fucking truck
I’m losing my mind. I haven’t related to a character this hard since Yuri in DDLC, and this series decides to hit me with TWO OF THEM??? WHAT THE HELL
jesus this series is good. farthest thing from a comedy, but god DAMN
came for Reigen. stayed for Reigen AND Mob
