Episode 3:

And with this episode, this anime is a masterpiece. Easily anime of the season for me so far, despite quite some competition. Considering nobody has posted in this thread yet, I urge all of you to give this anime a chance and watch at least the first 2 episodes.

This is turning into a bonafide non-episodic adventure story like I haven't seen one since ... I don't know. I get Kemono no Souja Erin-vibes, except this one has much better animation and a more mysterious story so far. If this story leads somewhere meaningful and can keep up its quality through to the end .... damn. <3
