Wait, Tokio doesn’t go invisible. The weird pregnant AI robot that runs the facility is tampering with the surveillance like it caused an alarm in another room instead of the one Tokio and Kuku entered. So far we don’t know her ability that’s why she got the dream of Asura asking her “what are you good at?”

It's like watching made in abyss for the second time. Great art, well defined characters, heartbreaking tragedies and a sprinkle of degeneracy. I bet the guy took inspiration from Tsukushi Akihito. These authors are sus af but they really know how to touch viewers' hearts.

Episode 12 left me more traumatized than my dad not coming back with the milk in 10 years.

For me it is always the three things that make a great anime: 1. World Building. Huge check 2. Painting and animation style check especially on the first one 3. Charakters and Characterstory. Check

that sad toilet story made me cry bery bery kidney touching story

The way you described the toilet's innermost desires was poetry

The masterpiece is flying way too far below the radar due to the limited platforms its being streamed on, but it is going to be the sort of show I still actively remember years later.

Yo I voice Taka in the English dub! Thanks so much for highlighting this anime :)

this one is by far my favorite from the season, the plots and visuals are amazing, I'm loving everything about it

Whenever this man says you need to watch something, I drop everything and go watch it. He has NEVER been wrong

Ep8 of heavenly delusion just made go like" what tf did i just watch and when tf am i gonna get more "

I literally said out loud “this might be my favorite anime” watching this show

Hell yeah. I've been loving this show. I feel like it's greatness can't really even come across until you watch it. It just has it's own unique vibe that is addicting while also pelting you with mystery after mystery. The characters happiness despite their bleak oppressive world feels natural and inspiring at the same time. Also, more than promised neverland, it reminds me of shin sekai yori, like a lot. It also reminds me of fear and hunger 2, so theres that.

Came out on Hulu and I was skeptical but fell in love with it. Glad to see you made a video and hope others can consider this anime

Personally, I consider Heavenly Delusion the best new anime of the season. And yes, even better than Oshi no Ko. There are many reasons, the most important of which is that Oshi no Ko started off strong, but then its level started to decrease, episode after episode. While Heavenly Delusion, all its episodes are strong, and with each episode it gets better. The story is very enthusiastic and constantly makes you want to keep watching. The production is more than perfect, and the characters are realistically written. This really deserves to be the best new anime of the year ( so far ) for me.

It's amazing how we got introduced to new characters in episode 8, and yet managed to tell a story that shattered the hearts of many, including mine. Props to you for making me cry, Heavenly Delusion!

The background art is just beautiful!! The traditional watercolor textures really give it a more natural feeling

After watching episode 8 (kind of like Chainsaw man from last year)...... Then yes, this anime definitely deserves every single grain of hype. We got a modern classic on our hands boys, bet!

It's good to see that this anime really is taking off I really hope that they make this a series or at least a short couple of seasons I haven't been interested in anime like this in a long time

Just watched the final episode of the season… You have to make another video

thank you so much for this, this is the second hidden gem I would of completely missed if you didn't point it out. both this one and summer time rendering.

Haven't watched the show yet, but your review is the push I need, Echidnut. Thanks!

Thank you for talking about this anime Echidnut. It's WAY too underrated

The latest episode was soo good I was knee deep in my tears. This anime is a masterpiece.

1:46 Bro Came Up With All Guns Blazing 💀

I started watching it when there were six episodes and I binged it all in one fell swoop. Absolutely fantastic show. I love the music and I love the characters. Kiruko is one of the best protagonists I've seen in ages and her chemistry with Maru is perfect.

echidnut is so awesome that even his sponsored ads about games are entertaining (only guy that i know can make an ad this interesting)

im almost certaint that all the students that go to the academy are hiruko/man eaters that we see but before they became man eaters like the tokio who can turn invisible is the man eater that kills haruki/kiruko and the one that can climb is the fish with legs and the kona guy drew the man eater with legs and the chick who can climb got it maybe foreshadowing she is that same man eater

I am so glad I found this show! I Was just randomly trying new anime this was my 5th show in a week and suddenly bam I struck absolute gold!! This show is insanely good!

I'm so glad that this anime is gaining traction! The last episode I was (episode 8) was a masterpiece. I wholeheartedly agree with this video - this HAS to be the AOTY.

Yup now I know why you didnt record your reaction to 08. And as always another great recommendation.

"You all thought maybe i was dead but in reality i was dead inside" i feel you man

6:37 It may be because I’ve been deprived of a 12 esq episode anime like this for a while, but each episode felt like it was an EXTRA 10 minutes! The really adventurous story they’ve shown gave me so much to work with while watching. And of course the animation, it was consistently great and it kept spitting out those impressive perspective shots so often. The anime completely immersed me like no other

Bro! 😭😭😭 I just finished the season because of you. I need to know your thoughts. Make your hilarious commentary make me feel less shitty after episode 12

I just watched this entire series in one night. God what a show. I love these two dorks.

Echidnut usually doesn't miss with his recommendations. This time, it ain't different!

This season of anime is insane, even with such an insane one like this one I think that it probably isn't even my favorite this season, I'd probably give first to oshi no ko and second place to either heavenly delusions or mashle, I mean hell's paradise is insane too and it would have probably been my favorite in any recent season except this one

5:32 in the manga it shoots high pressure water . I forgot if they used that in the anime cuz theres some differences here and there .

I really want a Golden Kamuy review from Echidnut

This show has definitely been a highlight this spring/summer

that was the smoothest ad transition ive ever seen

I feel like it's been ages since we didn't have a case of "masterpiece anime that hasn't been anticipated because it got overshadowed by the standard shonen of the season" like Tengoku Daimakyou , and seeing such dedication put into an anime that wasn't necessarily aiming for the top spot in annual rankings makes me feel so good , it reminds me of the 2010s back when the catalogue was diverse , *and* of high quality , you know asside from the successful shonen , the other options were qualitative unlike nowadays where we get only 2-3 insanely good animes while the rest are just cheap isekais or absurd harems. Spring 2023 has been an A tier season anime wise , we got Oshi no Ko , Hell's Paradise , Tengoku Daimakyou , Dead mount death play (which sadly isn't talked much about , but I heavily recommend it. Though I advice to skip half of the first episode since we don't get to the main plot , and it just drags the story) , Mashle , Yamada at Level 1000 and Skip to Loafer , which marks the return of entertaining shoujos that had disappeared these past years. I didn't mention Demon Slayer since it is not a new anime hahah. Having a great time watching the many animes this season has to offer tbh.

Would you ever do a video about the Urusei Yatsura return after 37 years off TV with love to see what you think about it

that transmision to ad was smooth

i've just watched the first 6 episode of this anime and i'm already in love with it

I just realized that Marus one of the twins tokio had, and that the hiruko are children that escaped from the school when the school was attacked

it is. the relationship between the two protags and the dialogue are addictive.

Think I originally started watching this cause of gigguk when he said this might be good going over the seasonal anime and shit, I've been looking forward to every episode since even got so tired of waiting I read up on the manga and even though I didn't get a lot of it on the first read through without additional reading there are so many apparent plot threads tied up in the story that are not obvious at first.

I’m still waiting for those echidna nut rags you promised back in 2020.

Some times I wonder if I have cloned and if I did this man is definitely one of them he understands me

It was fighting for my top spot with Jigokuraku and Mashle. Pretty good, I feel sooooo impatient for another season

The intro song is also amazing

as someone who read the title and havent watched the video or the anime, I agree.

Echidnut you're my new fav youtuber

By the 2nd episode, I already knew this was going to be one of my favorites just off the presentation alone. I just finished it and I give it like 9.5/10. It's sorta similar to Evangelion but even better IMO

first vid iv watched from this channel and i have to subscribe this vid is too funny

when i saw you uploaded a video on this i knew i had to watch it, i did and then i watched this video and yeah, though in this video you only got to ep 8, i just watched ep 10 and my mind is exploading, now im even more confused as to how they are going to tie it all up together in just 3 more episodes

Most of the time, when everyone is too hype for a new anime and everyone is doing videos about how we should all like it, i'm like .. " meeh.. " but this anime got me. I already bought all manga volumes and can't wait for what next . He is so good !

absolutely incredible this anime , havent seen something this good in a long time

This is one of the best anime I've ever watch so far it's get better ever episode and the opening i never skip that

Yo echidnut I'm really curious about your opinion in oshi no ko's 1st episode will you make a video about it. Also thanks for your effort.

So good you recommend this, I want it to blow up

I remember watching this anime and asking a anime discord server if any of them have seen it and nobody said yes.. this anime is so slept on

The second story is probably past like the doctor and the girl without limbs are the girl with long ears and the gray hair guy from past

His reaction to episode 8 was priceless.

Training agility in RuneScape can definitely take some time... Lol great video

I FEEL EXACTLY THE SAME (SAMESIES) ABOUT THE LENGTH OF EPISODES VS THE AMIUNT OF INFORMATION-actually I've been impressed by how the show is managing that without exclusively using exposition dumps to disambiguate said info. I mean, they have, but, it's not just Hunter Hunter's Narrator about it, and so far hasn't thrown out a Speedwagon to serve the function.

Hollup. Echid, are u gonna do a video on oshi no ko? Would love to hear your opinion on it.

Man i don't remember why i unsubscribed from you. Good video man :)

"You aren't supposed to fuck your siblings you know" Bruh, was that the subtitles or was that you??🤣🤣 Cuz that shit cracked me up🤣🤣

Just like this anime, your videos never miss

It's become my least favorite anime after episode 12

Echidnut you gotta watch Oshi No Ko I swear to god it’s gonna make it in ur top 10 anime at the very least

Which one of you added a sponsorblock skip for a single second that mentioned the earlier sponsorship? Absolute madlad.

Just binged this, fuck cant wait for S2 already lmao

*YES YES IT IS* I ordered the manga too all 4 volumes

Apart from Vinland Saga and Oshi no Ko, this is my 3rd favorite anime this season. It's like that game Fallout mixed in with an anime like "The Promised Neverlands". I also love just how unpredictable this show is. I still don't know where the story will go with what they've showed us till now.

It is my fav of this season alongside Mashle, Maru is the MVP, nothing will change that.

I think the story in the heaven and the children are from the past (before the calamity) and my biggest evidence is the last episode scene where the 4 children are going to the city and the story of maru and kiruko is the present which is after the calamity (which is left to be told in the next season)

This season is stacked. In my opinion Vinland Saga S2P2 is still the peak of the season due to how deep and profound the story is but at the same time Heavenly Delusion and Oshi no Ko are amazing

damn this looks good. i will now watch

Mangaka must have been drunk when he made "that" chapter and than thought thats a good idea to include it in the story

Latest episode broke me to tears... S f-ing good! Was literally left speechless.

Bro I got high and saw this video and wanted to watch the show, and I fucking started at episode 8 and watched the entire thing, then realized what I did and now i hate myself

You need to start an anime watch party where we can all tune in and watch the latest episode with you 😂

Why is there a game advertisement in my anime advertisement???

I miss watching your videos Echidnut

Howd you know?

Yesss I'm glad someone finally recognized it

Sad that the chapters in the manga are monthly it feels like forever to wait for another also that maybe means we will not see S2 in a while..

The FF7 music hit me like a truck out of left field. God damn. XD

I love this show One of the best show this season!

Enjoying the video but why is El Gato theme music from chrono trigger playing in the background? lol

after almost 10 years something unique and worthy finally came out and its underrated AGAIN

I know from experience that your taste is my taste xdd so I m gonna watch it for sure

I'm surprised no comparisons were drawn between Girls Last Tour.

The Art style is top notch

training agility in rs, gl bro u gonna need it. do u have the graceful at least?

Absolutely loved heavenly delusion. It's no spoilers here didn't even really faze me like it might have in every other anime. And I mean that for both times
