Wow, this was, extremely good. I can't describe how much I loved it. Easily, it is one of the best manga to anime adapatation I've ever seen in a while. Pacing is flawless, and Shimono is getting better every episode; his voice in the party part definitely showed that he can pull off something serious other than crazy comedic voices.
Easily, the best anime of the season, and possibly THE favourite anime of this year for me. This might even top my bakemonogatari fandom.
