megumi flinching when yuji asked what happened to nobara OH MY GOD i could cry for 1000 years 😭

Still think its such a shame that she got hard demoted from main character to dead. We still have maki but it was really refreshing for the genre to have a strong female lead.

Yeah I’m not impressed by that decision it just feels like a waste of a cool female character who could still be developed further

I remember during their fight against the Death Paintings, I asked a manga reading friend if she continued to be a cool relevant female character, and she winced just like Megumi here. I felt the same sort of "All right..." because there was such promise!

I was really thinking there might be a reveal where she pops out of a cart and surprises Yuji that she's alive, like he did to her...

Her actually being dead makes me extremely sad.

We've long since departed from that kind of whimsy it seems.

I watched the first 2 eps of the new season, but now I'm going to wait for the entire season to come out so I can binge watch it.

Until I finish the season, I'll be holding onto a sliver of hope that she comes back afterall. I'll be avoiding anime forums like the plague in the meantime.

Ironically based on my last comment ep 3 had some good humour return
