demon slayer kimetsu no yaiba saison 2
4 episodes in I was pretty confident in my guess on who the killer was as it was so easy to trace back once you actually think about it. I would of been surprised if my guess was wrong to be totally honest, and that's not because I'm some sort of super-genius.
I seem to have a very obvious bias when it comes to works done by A-1 Pictures. I
thought the art
style resembled their previous works too strongly and therefore it derived from the series for me as it didn't strike me as dark enough in tone, especially for the kind of series Erased is. So, much like the
opening and ending, the art and animation slowly grew on me the further it went on. It's very soothing and visually appealing. Combined with a decent musical direction and atmosphere it even felt cinematic at times.
I wasn't a very big fan of the opening at first to be honest but it gradually grew on me and is easily the best opening of the season and even one of my all-time favorites. That also applies to the ending, it's neat too. As for the OST, I'm indifferent about it. There wasn't anything that struck me as good or above average, it all just felt like regular background music to me but it does it's role, for what it's worth.
Maomao typically presents herself very plainly, wearing simple clothes and avoiding makeup save for freckles she paints on her nose. On the occasions she dresses up, she is considered
gorgeous by many, with most failing to recognize her as the same person entirely. Though she normally wears an impassive expression on her face, she flushes, her eyes light up, and she begins to smile whenever she is able to taste poison or interact with rare medicines. Her main outfit consists of an aoqun hanfu, with a light green top and a long, burgundy skirt. The inner layer of her top is white, and the collar is pale and
dark green. She also wears dark green flats. Maomao also has white bandages on her left arm, which conceal several scars she gained from her experiments with poisons and herbs. Personality[] Having been raised by the esteemed pharmacist Luomen, Maomao is fascinated by poison and herbs, and has a habit of experimenting with them to observe their effects, primarily on her own body. Due to her passionate love of poisons and her enjoyment when consuming them, she is considered strange, creepy, or obsessed by many characters in the series - a trait she shares with many other members of the eccentric and uniquely talented La Clan. This obsession is a major motivation for her actions throughout the series, as Jinshi learns to bait her to solve court mysteries with the promise of giving her rare medicines. Maomao's approach to life is very practical, focused on learning to survive in whatever way her environment demands her to and avoiding trouble.
