OK Unlimited Budget Works 1st half is over. 3 Double sized episodes to boot. So technically a 16 episode 1st half.
It’s a pretty decent adaptation so far and it broke right where I thought it would.
Same here, since I was thinking it would break right on my wallet.
Even though I’m not buying the exorbitantly priced import, some of my bros are and my wallet is still feeling the pain vicariously; What could that be called, anime couvade syndrome?
