there's still one unaired episode but since it doesn't have a solid release date yet i'll jot some thoughts down now before i forget everything
first of all THERE IS A TGIRL IN THIS BOYS CHOIR CLUB sadly no it is not made explicit but it is so evident, and shizuo's whole character arc was just a delight to see
unfortunately that also kind of highlights the one thing i found a bit lacking here, which is just not all the choir kids got a particularly deep/involved story. and that i suspect is just to do with the fact that the pacing is a bit wonky at best
nearly half the season (which amounts to half the series) is devoted to bringing on the choir members one (or two) at a time (mostly By Force), and the rest speeds them straight through to nationals, introducing a few (like very few) rivals along the way
that's really not enough time to dive into every character, and while sure all club anime have main characters and less-main characters, it would have been nice imo to see more personal stories here (i would've especially loved to see more with magic and hakase)
it's also very silly, like very silly, and "Not Good" in a typical sense. which understandably might be deal breakers for a lot of viewers. but personally it's silly in a way i love, and i even got way more invested in this team than i thought i would
the other potential deal breaker, the asshole in the room, is of course the pseudo-teacher who's putting this club together and leading them to nationals. haruo is... what is that one cat meme? it's not that he's evil, he lacks empathy and goes into a dissociative state and commits atrocities?
haruo's something like that except it's more like he lacks empathy and any sense whatsoever of social awareness, and if he's unbearable to you... this is not going to be a pleasant show to watch. BUT if you think he's funny as hell (which i do) then he really adds to the zaniness of the series in a good way
anyway the tl;dr is yeah, okay, admittedly this is not a Good show but it is exceptionally fun to me

Me gustaría poner un post sobre una cafetería que he construido en el pasado hoy.
Como el nombre de este edificio sugiere, lo construye por imaginación de tablao, en el que utilicé muchos elementos de Courtyard Oasis Kit lo que me haya encantado, y unas cosas mexicanas.
No soy nativa de la cultura española.
Pero me ha inspirado por la de Andalucía donde he visitado varias veces en el pasado y lo que amo.
Respeto la tierra, y la gente y la cultura.

Gracias por verlo.

Today, I would like to put a post about a coffee shop that I have built in the past.

I am not a native of Spanish culture.
But I have been inspired by Andalusia where I have visited several times in the past and what I love.
