Incredible start to this series. One of my favorite manga of all time, come to the new medium in an exceptional adaptation to the beginning arc of this story. So far, this series really rewards a careful viewing, providing so many details and emotion in the visuals on screen rather than having a character explain everything with exposition. The show isn't afraid to let time pass, not just in the story, but to linger on a shot, extend a montage, or have a silly sequence just to provide some characterization. This story, much like another of my favorites, Mushishi, embodies melancholy so well. I can't wait to see the rest of the series get this kind of treatment.
