But the mood is much more oppressive and tense here, for many obvious reasons. It makes sense to me that this would weigh on Shinku as well, taking a bit of ease and color away from her personality, and making her a bit more subdued in talking to Jun. There's also the fact that this Jun is an adult living an adult lifestyle, and I think at some level Shinku respects that. When Jun told Shinku he was going to work, he was very matter of fact about it. He was clearly implying to Shinku "What I'm doing now is non-negotiable. You're going to have to put up with it, as it's an essential part of my life. And try not to mess up my apartment while I'm gone, please." Shinku is simply not in a position to lord over Adult!Jun like she was Teenage!Jun. She can demand tea from him, and a certain degree of care and consideration, but that's it.

Things like that scene where Suigintou takes Souseiseki's Rosa Mystica have a big emotional effect in the manga, but in that first episode there is none because it is so sudden and it happens so fast. If they just wanted to inform the viewers that such an event happened in the past, it is enough to have a character make a mention of it in the appropriate point of the anime. Curious viewers then could go and read the first manga for the "full version" of the events. On the other hand, no Rozen Maidens appear on Episode 2. So maybe the director thought that no dolls on the first episode would be a turn off for some viewers. After all, the dolls are supposed to be the main characters here. But it was still a bad idea to start with that fast paced episode, I think. Other than that, I have no complaints with this adaptation so far. |

Excellent episode. In previous seasons, my interest has always petered out after a few episodes. In this season, my interest is growing week by week.
I understand the complaints about episode one, but for me it was exactly right. It helped me get my bearings, and allows me to feel the perilous situation we are in. Without it, Shinku would have seemed a worry-wart in this episode, and Kirakishou's appearance silly. As it is, I am just bowing down in worship of Sawashiro Miyuki. Now, that's voice-acting.

A great episode. Sawashiro's acting was especially good as always. And Chiemi Chiba is ridiculously good as Kirakishou every time she does get some lines. Dat laugh.
I can't wait for the next episode. Finally, more Suigintou in my empty life!

Shinku's explanation is that if jun chose to wind, the rozen maidens don't exist... which kinda gives the

The concept does make it possible that the nomad continuity exists within the multiverse.

I don't know if your English is too good but basically, the body that Shinku is using right now is indeed not hers. Her real body is trapped in the N-Field. Shinku is basically an invader into Unwound Jun's universe and she does not belong there. |

Fourth Tale
Adult Jun's rocky, head-start relationship with Shinku would give me an idea at how young Jun found himself dragged over the edge by Shinku's elitist demands at the start of the first Rozen Maiden series.
This is not a complain, but rather that's how Shinku is and becomes so characteristically epic onscreen. To drive insult upon Jun it would have been better for the writers to make Shinku asked Jun an array of seemingly ending questions regarding how he prepared the tea, then drinking it and she ending the session with a flat, "it's cold". Don't have to complain about the episode, as I saw a change upon adult Jun's disposition and attitude to better appreciate and interact with the outside world; his conversation with Saito is a testament to my above statement. TBH, I think that adult Jun shouldn't dabble too much in his thoughts about how his life would have turned out had he rewound. IMO, what matters is the present, and what one can do here and Now. Now, the pressing matter is that KiraKishou finally has gathered herself at adult Jun's doorstep, figuratively speaking, and two words describe her: psychotically insane; if she's imitating what Shinku said, then that alone speaks volumes about her personality. |
