Akebi’s Sailor Uniform Season Premiere – Episodes 1-2 (ANN)

Restaurant to Another World truly exemplifies what reverse isekai slice-of-life can be, creating an If there’s anything I can say about these first two episodes, it’s that Akebi’s Sailor Uniform looks beautiful. Middle school is by and large a pretty boring time, but Akebi’s Sailor Uniform filters it through a remarkably idyllic lens, and I think therein lies the charm of this series: it’s watching these small moments as Komichi interacts with her classmates, and seeing the mundane made special with stunning animation. That said, there are also some strange, pseudo-sexualized moments in these episodes, like the sensual toenail clipper sniffing scene with the volume cranked up on those inhales. It’s honestly discomforting, especially considering the age of these characters.

    The aesthetics are nice. Cloverworks have been doing a wonderful job so far with Sono Bisque and Akebi-chan. Surprised they can put that much detail into two shows airing simultaneously.

    I see what you mean. That scene was weird. Like “what the heck is this kid doing” kinda weird. Nonetheless, I like the slice of life in the anime so far.
