[Discussion] What episodes are masterpieces for you?
Some of mine:
Violet Evergarden Eps 7-10
Aria the Origination Eps 8-13
Takopi’s Original Sin Eps 1-4 and 6
Clannad After Story Ep 18
A Place Further Than the Universe Ep 12
BanG Dream! It’s MyGO!!!!! Ep 10
Paranoia Agent Episode 8-10
It breaks away from the main story and the next few episodes did the same. They were all almost self-contained short stories that didn't really move the plot forward but the tone of the main story set these episodes up to be some of the best episodes in TV anime I've seen so far.
I don't want to spoil the events but the focal characters for these episodes were particularly interesting. Especially episode 9 where it's just a bunch of gossiping aunties lol
Going through my list made me realise that I don’t have favourite episodes; I have favourite scenes 😅
Anyway, here are mine:
86 Part 2 Episode 12 - You know which scene I’m referring to
Umamusume Season 2 Episode 13 - The greatest
comeback
of all time
May not be considered masterpieces by most, but they are masterpieces to me:
entrance
of all time
Too hard for me to rewatch, but I’d consider them masterpieces:
DanDaDan Episode 7 - You know which episode I’m talking about
+1 for Violet Evergarden Episode 10 - You know which episode I’m talking about
And of course
Notable exclusions for having too many standout episodes:
I also mostly have favourite scenes. Much easier to come up with and more plentiful.
agreed on Frieren lol, too many to list
Jujutsu Kaisen s2e4 occupies a special place in my heart.
And with masterpiece I just mean whatever episodes come to mind that I like to rewatch on their own.
honourable mention: Aria the Crepuscolo (a short film so doesn’t count but it feels like a big Alice + Athena episode full of some of my favorite moments)
Surprising: I can’t think of a single Hidamari Sketch episode above the rest of them.
