Yeah, I caught that as well. It makes sense since we're halfway through (this being a 24 episode series and all).

'tother average ep really. Nothing to write home about.

I feel like the recap of the first cour episodes was unnecessary. Also I have to wonder if the new opening is a temporary one since it doesn't feature Haru or Futaba.

They actually wasted an episode on a recap?

Only a chunk, majority of it was Makoto's Co-op.

Figures they'd waste an episode on Makoto.

Didn't they already waste an episode on Yusuke?

To be fair, it's for her Confidant. Sure everyone else gonna get a similar treatment...maybe

We already got Ryuji's and Yusuke's, wonder if they have time to squeeze in the rest.

It's also part recap. So they wasted an entire episode on Makoto.

There is an inprovement in that the dumb girl being played by the Playboy had him getting Targeted by the Phantom Thieves while he runs off scott free in Makotos Confidant. Such a shame she's so boring compared to her sister though.

Nope. Almost as boring as the battles in the anime. Also I think they downplayed the one girl abusin her boyfriend into just a stalker. Not entirely sure on that so my memory might be fuzzy.

I disagree with you very heavily on her being boring.

I dislike Makoto but even that aside I have no idea why they would spend most of an episode on her confidant. You could easily sum it up in five minutes.

Because presumably all party members will have an episode devoted to their confidant?

[up][up]That's fair but I think it's a missed opportunity to use it to flesh out Makoto and Sae's relationship more than the game did.

Sadly that's expecting too much from this show.

Is it weird that now I want the anime to turn Haru's fiancee into a Mementos target?

So there's no way in Tartarus they're gonna finish the game in just 10 more episodes, right? Especially with confidant-driven episodes (which, by the way, are my favorite episodes even if I'm not Makoto's biggest fan either. I don't dislike her one bit through, I just scoff at people who think she's best girl.)

And since we got a new op for episode 14...maybe at least 28 episodes? Still seems too short.

Maybe they're either secretly planning more episodes or at least a movie?

Loves feel-good animation a whole lot.

I felt sorry for Mishima being the distraction Ren needed to get dirt on Kaneshiro... XD

He had to turn off his mobile just to watch some movie.
