The errors pointed out by fans on social media are easy to ignore, as they do not take away from the story.While it is disappointing that the animation between episodes 2 and 3 was so inconsistent, Studio 8bit proved that it still has talented animators working on the show.Isagi and Bachira will most likely keep dominating the discussion on Twitter as their friendship continues to develop. Fans can only hope that the respect they saw blossom in this latest episode between the boys is not affected by the stress of the experiment.
