Bokurano ep. 3

[ Episode 3: The Secret ]
I quite like GONZO’s take on things so far. Most of this episode wasn’t present in the manga but I felt that it was something that fits in well. I think it did a great job at introducing most of the lives of the children. Certain behavior and familial relationships are already being hinted at with just a few seconds of dialogue and body language (like Chizu, Isao, and Kanji). Waku’s funeral was a nice touch as it was never covered in the manga. I think it gave viewers an outlook on the characters together and allowed us to see which characters were actually in mourning over Waku’s death (which I feel reflects each of their personalities). I’m also glad that they decided to introduce the parents and other family members so early even if they won’t be seen for a while (that is, in the kids’ specific arc).
The next pilot chosen is Masaru. I never really liked his character so I can’t say I’ll miss him.
