It makes everything seem plausible, even with the supernatural twists thrown in. Furthermore, as the author stated, it captures the "feel" of Japan quite well. The love hotel in Shinkuro's neighborhood is very reminiscent of certain parts of various Japanese cities, and that small fish in a huge pond feel is definately portrayed. Even the scene when they are all eating boiled tofu reminds me of countless family meals eating sukiyaki or whatever was for dinner that night. I too am enjoying this show.

I'm also following this, but I'm hoping the plot goes somewhere, as it seems to just wander aimlessly at times.

In addition to the classy naturalist direction they've really got great balance between providing each episode with thematic unity whilst mixing in details and ideas relevant to the series as a whole (I'm not sure I'd say the same of DtB). I'm thinking it might be best to rewatch the whole series in the week before the last episode, just to get a feel for the broader stuff.

I've heard its concept of a person looking after a younger child appeared in last years Seirei no Moribito, as well. Which has all the more intrigued me. But, anyway - I'm loving this series. Its twelve episodes long and I like that fact, I think the central theme would get worn out if it went on for much longer (In one season). Also, Because of that I'm expecting a revelation and the over-riding plot that has taken the backseat since the first half of the first episode to come into play a bit more. There really hasn't been much explanation to the whole "Bone coming out of the body" situation. Everyone either, doesn't care.. or is oblivious to it. Both of which are amusing situations. I'm surprised you two didn't mention the all to fantastic OP and ED animations, actually. Full of bright colours, dancing people and swirly texts. Its something that the twenty-something minutes separating the OP and ED definitely is not. Can't wait for your serving of GAR on a plate, with Soru Ita soon. I hope it Breaks the Heavens. Haha.
