The above is a watch log. After each episode, I select a screen capture, write a synopsis, and add a little reflection. Since director and screenplay credits are available for individual episodes, I'm including them, and might use them as a lens to compare episodes to each other, the film series, or related bodies of work. That said, these are all studio pros, many of which already had a ton of credits under their belt by this time, with only a fraction of that work currently accessible, and even less of it English-subbed. Plus, I wouldn't even consider myself an armchair cinephile, so take anything I've written with a heavy grain of salt.
My primary goal in writing these is to help me consume media with more intention (as opposed to binging and forgetting, which I'm prone to do otherwise). I'm also hoping it can be a resource I can return to in the future to help me remember which episode is which, informing my screen grabs and writing.
Episode Titles: There are multiple English-language titles online. I'm using the ones currently on wikipedia and IMDB.
Credits: Credits are pulled from the Japanese wikipedia page for the series. The page I link for each director/writer credit is chosen on a whim, based on which source seemed the most relevant/helpful at the time. These sources may be Japanese-language which I've accessed via browser translate.
Romanization of Names: I'll try to keep the romanization of names consistent within this page first, and with the source I'm linking to second.
