It is pretty good! I powered through volumes 1 and 2 and then volume 3 on the SigIkki website, haha, because it's SO GOOD AUGH and I think I love Matsu beyond all reason because he's totally one of those prickly-on-the-outside woobie-on-the-inside characters and OTAKE~~~ OTAKE~~~

I realized that forcing myself to write these episode evaluations, as dumb as they are for readers, really forced me to look at the anime a lot closer than I would have if I wasn't writing at the same time, haha. Like I started thinking about episode 2 in terms of how Natsume Ono did "time compression" in her panels really subtly? But in the anime, because there are no panels, we stretch the time out, and we kind of lose the woodprint-esque quality of her art.

IT IS SO SO AWESOME.
