City The Animation Episode 2 REACTION + DISCUSSION

Hello guys and welcome to a brand new video. Today I’m here with City the Animation episode number two reaction. All right, the previous episode was the beginning of the show and uh yeah, it was a very strong um beginning, funny, just like I expected, just like I expected uh you know like from the same author as Nichi Joe. Um, and he the the first episode kind of introduced the characters and I don’t really remember all of their names. I did uh try to remember them a few of them in the first episode, but I, you know, one week has passed. I’ve forgotten most of the names. Uh, but yeah, I’m sure I’ll get used to the names, but there were a few characters uh that they showed and they showed like obviously just like Niji Jo, there’s like different like um you know like stories going on in the same episode. There was like at least three to four characters who had like the separate story uh mini stories in the first episode and we met a few characters. A few of them are quite eccentric. I remember that girl who like was touching mushrooms and uh doing like weird stuff. Then we have um the whole uh that section the noodles section where they dropped the noodles into the bag and they were like getting scared of the fact that what the c customer is going to say and then they later realized it’s not the customer’s bag but it’s um that guy um you know like the the owner of the the place his son uh his son’s back. So they were by the end they were like oh it’s fine then you know right and uh a few other sections were there. Um yeah so it was quite funny. I’m looking forward to this episode. Let’s see what happens here in episode 2. Let us begin. I’ll be putting the subtitles and the timer here. Sing it to whichever is your preference and let’s begin. Okay.

Well, that gave a common topic for her to converse. Oh. Wait. Okay, she’s gone. Okay. Nah, man. Stop it. Whoa. Oh god. Yeah, you’re just going home. So, let’s go home. That’s a bling. Oh, no. Oh, wow. They actually went to Yeah, you they’re literally going to play God. Okay. Wow. Right. No, you’re supposed to play God. So, you know, Damn. Wow. Everyone’s playing God with their lives. True. That’s deep. Okay. Wow. Oh, good point. Oh boy. Okay. Oh, he All right. pretty simple. Well, cannot really do anything because he doesn’t want anything happening. So, yeah. Damn. What? What? Yeah. All right. What in the What? Wait, what’s Oh, the the manga do one with heated up. Oh my god. Thank you. Reality is truly what right until the very end. I just realized why it’s called bummer because it’s like everything that happens is a bummer I guess in the manga that’s why safety zone right now God. H. Oh my god. Yeah. Oh yeah, that person we saw. What? You literally wrote the final. Okay. Right. Well, um, right. Um, oh no, your manga will continue. Yeah. Yo, you know what? Yeah, they ended it. So, you can start a new Okay. I feel like he might say something like, “Let’s make a manga about this city,” or something like that. Okay, never mind. I thought it was going to like go in like a meta direction like that. Y. Yeah. Okay. Right. I I generally thought it was going to like I don’t know like go in a meta direction and they would be like oh let’s write a manga about this city and that manga would be the you know would be the story that we are re seeing you know I thought it was going to be something like that never Okay. Oh, wait. There’s something left. Oh, no. She’s back to the Oh, wait. She Okay, that’s it. Oh, no. Wait. What? What’s happen? It’s still continuing. Okay. I thought that was it. Where’s the angel part of her? It doesn’t exist, I guess. Yeah, there’s literally no angel part in her. Wow. Yep. Oh, okay. Yeah. Oh, is this finally? Oh, no. What? Wow. She literally has no angel. I think someone else is going to come and pick it up at the end. Oh, the police officer will find it. Oh, okay. Finally. Maybe. Oh no, it’s going to say something even crazier. Wow. I don’t think All right. Ah, yep. I knew it. Well, all right. Yeah, you guys took too long. Oh, wow. Finally. Yeah, you’re so damn late. All right. Okay, there you go. That was today’s episode. Well, that was a funny little bit at the end. Okay, so today’s episode uh we had um quite a few things happening. First and foremost, we had the uh the football thing, you know, like where um it’s the same football match that um you know, the you know what, let me bring up the character sheet. I I I still don’t remember the name properly. Um you know, the the the guy what’s his name? This is a a football match that he wanted to go. That’s why he didn’t he wanted a part-timer so badly. if you remember in the previous episode. So, yeah, this is that football match. And turns out he’s a substitute, right? I I think I saw that right, right? Yeah. And turns out even if he’s a substitute, the whole um team as they explained is absolutely elementary school level. There’s only one person in the team who does very well and but he’s like a glass cannon. He’s very strong but at the same time he gets injured easily. Uh so they wanted to be his bodyguard but turns out he just ends up tripping in a completely different place and gets hospitalized. So there you go. That’s it. That’s it for their dreams I guess for making him you know the star of the match. Um right that part. And then we had a few other things today like uh for example we had uh like wait what’s her name? Izumo, right? No, I meeting Nikura and Nagumo. Uh, and they were like, obviously they were talking about like photography and all that. And um, yeah, turns out she donated the money that she got and uh, right, she just takes pictures, which just looks fun, which makes sense. Obviously, she gets very good angles of pictures, very good like she has the you know the the ability to kind of catch a like a picture in a correct moment in the like opportune moment like he’s she’s like it seems like she’s always ready with her camera whenever there’s some crazy stuff going on. So that’s why she gets some crazy pictures. And then we had the whole section with um the manga ending. And uh what was it called? Bummer or something like that was the manga’s name, right? And it was hilarious because in the end they were waiting for another author to be the one who continues like starts a new work. That’s why his manga got axed. Like it was technically axed because you know like they had actually no plans of continuing uh like they had plans of continuing it but they had to just end it immediately. So it got asked and then later on they realized like oh wait a minute the person is injured so we will continue with the author’s uh manga. So you know they had to start another new work. Like I said, I genuinely thought there would be like a like a meta joke here where they’d be like, “Oh, let’s let’s uh start a manga about this city.” And you know, the manga that people are reading and the anime that we’re watching, it will be that. I thought it would be some kind of a meta joke like that. Uh but no, they’re just going to write bummer too, right? You know what? I feel like the fans will be so confused. They’ll be like, “Wait, what is going on? They they like abruptly ended bummer one and not only that they’re starting a part two to it. So what is the point of ending part one? They would be so confused, you know. Anyways, that was that. There was also another section where we had um Nikra, right? Kind of reminiscing about her past as to how she got to know Nagumo. Uh you know, that part was there as well. Um and uh yeah and then there was the playing God part. Um so yeah these were today’s ep today’s sections and also the after credit scene where Nikura ends up thinking what to do with the money but it took too long for her to kind of you know like take a decision that and her angel part was late. So the person who ends up finding it was the person who lost it. So you know all well that ends well I guess. Um right and yeah so these were today’s sections. So as always it was really funny. Uh I will talk about the sections that I found particularly funny today. Um for example let me see the manga part was very funny. you know, like they did so much like the whole section was like so charged up and like you know like they were like oh like I’m so sorry like you know like we have to end it like this. The author was crying, the editor was crying, and then in the end, you know, the the guy the the department head, I think the department chief, he was like, “Oh, by the way, the person who was supposed to continue the work or was going to get the slot, uh, yeah, that person is injured. So, yeah, you you tell you tell uh Sensei to come back again and we we have to continue the story. And I like how he broke the news to him. He just went there and he’s like, “Just kidding. That’s how he broke the news to him.” He’s like, “Oh, it’s it’s it’s a prank.” Yeah. Like, you’ll continue it. No, don’t worry. Um, right. And I guess we probably going to see this person later. You know, the the the the mangaka who was supposed to who’s injured. Uh, we did get a little bit of silhouette of that person. So, I’m assuming maybe we’ll get to see that character later. Or there’s another thing I’m thinking. Wait a minute. Is that a reference to Nichi Joe? Wait, wait, wait, wait. Let me go back. I wouldn’t be surprised if that character is, you know, because a lot of shows do this, like if there’s like they kind of bring in references from other shows that this author made. Where is that part? Just a minute. Not find it anymore. Oh, there it is. Okay, so this lady, I’m guessing it’s a girl. Blue hair. Wait a minute. It’s been a while I’ve watched Nichi Jo, so I cannot remember if there was a character in Nichi Jo who had Okay. Is that supposed to be Neo? I wouldn’t be surprised if you know from Nichi Joe. Let me know. I there is a high possibility that’s Neo because first and foremost the way they showed that section was very suspicious. They didn’t show her face. You know they showed her from the back there. There was like blue hair, right? hairstyle is I think a little bit different but you know and Neo as far as I can remember she used to like draw manga right like Yi manga and stuff so there’s a possibility let me know because I I that scene really made me think that there is a high possibility that they maybe this is like a reference to Niji Jo like a character if this is a character from Nichi and a reference from Nichi Mio probably won’t, you know, like this character probably won’t be shown after this again. It It’s probably like a little Easter egg. Um, but if this is like a genuine character in City, she’ll probably be introduced later. But I think there’s a 50/50 chance this is supposed to be a reference to Niito, and that is Mio actually. Like I said, let me know in the comments. I wouldn’t be surprised. Um, uh, yeah. Anyways, uh, there you go. So, that was that. And then you know like we have oh wait they said the name right wait I think they mentioned the name just a minute let me go back when when they were telling the wait I didn’t pay attention to that section the name at least um when you know like the chief was saying that oh this person is going to okay never sensei. Oh yeah, it is Mo. It is Mo because you know obviously authors don’t a lot of authors don’t use that name. They use like pen names or stuff like that. Mio’s title I forgot it’s now that I’m checking it out is literally Naganohara. That is Mio. So, dice. What is there any character called? Dice game. Wait, wait, wait, wait a minute. Okay. Um, no. I cannot really find anyone called a daisy, but I’m guessing that’s just like a pen name that she took, you know. Yeah. Okay. I’m 100% sure now. Like, that’s Wow. Okay. So, she probably won’t be shown after this. Okay. Just a sec, guys. All right. I’m back. So, yeah. Where was I? Um, right. So yeah, I’m 100% sure now that is a Mio still, you know, like let me know in the comments like if I’m correct or not because at this point, come on, it’s literally the name is there. Nagan Nohara. Wow, that was good. You know, I like I said, I probably wouldn’t have unders like guessed that was a reference if I didn’t know that Nichi Joe, but it’s pretty obvious Nichi Jo’s author and this author is same, you know, like the art style and everything is like extremely, you know, like exactly like it. So yeah, but if you know by some way or the other if I didn’t know that this was uh done by Ni Joe’s author, I probably wouldn’t be able to guess it. But I knew that and I was thinking that there is a high possibility characters from Nichi Joe might have like small appearances here like Easter eggs and stuff and you know the way they showed that scene was extremely suspicious. they just didn’t show the character’s face. Like usually when do when does animes or mangas do this? When it’s a character that will be introduced either later or it’s like some kind of a one-time appearance. And usually one time appearances and like Easter eggs from other like you know shows from the same author. It kind of makes sense. That’s why I was like yeah there’s a big possibility this is a character from Nichi Jo. And uh yep it is. It is exactly. So I I don’t think we’ll ever see her again. Or maybe we will. I don’t know. You know, maybe in the future we will see her again. Uh but we do know that is Mio. Okay, that’s fine. I do wonder if we’ll see other characters as well. You know, the other NO characters. Um maybe we’ll see them. That’ll be cool. Okay. Now, so that was that. Okay. What else was did I like in today’s episode? Um, like I said, I I like the manga part, the whole Oh, just kidding. You know, that section and uh oh, the the whole um the angel devil part was also very funny. Uh that was that was very funny. like she was waiting for her angel to come out, but her angels took so long. And you know, I love how this this whole section actually has a good moral to it. Where’s that part? Um, and they literally explain it. Um, there’s such a good moral to this section. Um, come on. Let let me try to find that part. The part where she says, “Okay.” All right. So yeah, this section, this is the moral of the ending part. Five demons appear and fail. Okay, not that. On top of being greedy and having a halfhearted sense of justice and a bad Yeah. So basically, you know, the half-hearted sense of justice is pretty damn, you know, accurate here is that you’re like, “Oh, like this seems wrong, but I do want to do this.” And you’re kind of deliberating in your head like, “Should I do it? Should I not?” You know, it’s like this halfway sense of justice. It, you know, and this kind of stalled her so much that she was able to do nothing. She wasn’t able to heed the demon’s advice, devil’s advice, nor was she able to heed the angel’s advice. And you know what’s funny? I feel like I don’t know, maybe I’m looking too deep into this, but the fact that the angel ended up coming late was also probably part of her half-hearted sense of justice, which made the angel come so late because she was not able to like convince herself that, oh, I should take it. She wanted to take it. That’s why she had four de five devils I think demons come out back to back. That’s how much she wanted to take it. But her sense of justice, her half-hearted sense of justice stalled her so much that the angel never appeared. And when the angel appeared, everything is done. It’s over, you know. So yeah, that’s pretty funny. Good lord. Um, okay. So yeah, that part was very, very funny. I I like these two sections very much. I also like the part. It wasn’t particularly funny or anything, but I really like the part where um they showed um uh what’s her name? Nikura and Nagumo’s connection. You know how uh she was there at school. She didn’t have anyone to talk about that many things. But then you know like she saw Nikura and not Nikura sorry Nagumo and uh she started taking pictures of her and later on she was able to connect to her classmates because of that. Um and I think that’s where this the dream ended right? Yeah just a minute let me check. Yeah that’s where the dream ended. She like gets up and she was like reminiscing and and I we didn’t really see how they connected after that. I’m guessing they’ll probably show that later because obviously that was just her like in one way just like looking at her and you know like taking pictures of her and knowing her. Um Nagumo didn’t know her at all obviously and the dream ended there. So obviously there must be something something must have happened after that how they came to know each other and how are they like roommates literally like something must have happened within that time right? So now they’re like literally roommates living with each other. So, I’m assuming that will probably be revealed later. For now, we get to know how they or how she got to know Nagumo and how Nagumo’s, you know, presence helped her get out of her shell and be more socialable with her like school friends, which she wasn’t able to do because as she said, she didn’t really have a hobby. And if you think about that is true like like having like you know like seeing Nagumo and being like fascinated by her made her start snapping pictures of her. So now that she’s so like dedicated to her snapping pictures and everything as you can see in the previous episode literally they like you know showed how she was like oh like I want to like you know like I want to do something in the you know in this whole photography thing and how Nagumo was like damn you have your whole life you know kind of figured out right and she was like smiling and everything. Now this episode kind of shows how much like you know like it’s put so much context to it because this shows how she was literally like uh Nagumo she didn’t really have anything she particularly wanted to do but then you know seeing Nagumo she like gained a new passion for photography because she used to snap pictures of her and that actually became something that she realized that oh I actually enjoy this you know like I want to continue doing this Uh and uh yeah, so in a way you could say Naguma like kind of gave her like like a goal which she discovered, you know, like she she probably like, you know, she might have discovered photography for herself in the future some way or the other and she probably would have still gotten the same result, but you know, but because of um Nagumo, she was able to figure it out a little bit earlier and she realized like, oh my god, I like doing this. So, you know that and in a way you could say it’s pretty interesting because like the girl with Nagum I’m talking about who can literally do anything. You know, she can do anything. You’ll see like she like goes around like in tennis clubs, judo clubs and everything. It’s like defeating everyone. She’s someone who can do everything. But she’s the also the person who doesn’t have anything that she wants to do. You know, that’s like the ironical part to this. like it’s like oh I can do anything that I want but I don’t have anything in particularly that I want to do. So that’s why she was kind of like praising Nikura in the previous episode where she was like, “Oh, you actually have figured out what you want to do with your life. That’s so that’s so good.” Unlike me, I don’t know what I want to do, you know. So yeah, it’s very interesting like how the whole like you know thing like each people has like their own type of um you know like things that they struggle with and they don’t know what to do with you know like yeah that kind of thing. Um, okay. Now, yeah, that was Nikura and uh Nagumo. Uh, what else was there in today’s episode? Um, oh, Nikura telling Nagumo to make that weird face and they do it and oh my, you know, that’s hilarious because if you like I like how the all of this is connected. Literally in the previous scene, you see the chief chief who said something like was doing the the the spin the wheel thing and the editor was like, “Oh, why why are you doing this?” Like what what is and he’s like, “Oh, don’t worry.” Like, you know, um people don’t read our articles. So, we are doing this. It’s completely fine, you know, like nobody’s going to read it, so it’s not going to affect anyone. And literally the next scene we see um it’s the same uh magazine right that she was reading that she got the whole duck face from. Yeah. Nikula was reading that and she tried to she probably read something in the article over there which they were writing by throwing darts in a spin the wheel and she read that and she tried to emulate it and this happened. So yeah, obviously people do read your articles. Um maybe not a lot of people, but a few people definitely read it and they’re getting affected by the weird stuff that you guys post. Oh boy. I love how he says like, oh, like the people who believe in our magazines horoscopes, he says I think he says something like, yeah, don’t exist. Right. Okay. Another thing I want to read here. Uh I need to check that part out. What was the the ending um the ending chapter of Bummer? I think they kind of show it here. Let me read that part. It happened so quickly I couldn’t properly concentrate. Okay. So, uh Mr. Bummer final. Uh so the first panel is do you want me to heat it up? Yes, please. And yeah, the microwave explodes. Uh then they just give it to him. Thank you. Reality is and a cruel thing and he he puts his leg on a on the button thing and it blows up a h a place. Oh no, his his own house. Bummer house. Good thing I leave alone. Good stuff happens, too. And that’s it. So yeah, it was a very abrupt end obviously but yeah, they had no plans plans on ending it but they had to end it but then they’re like all right we have to continue this again so let’s just make a sequel to this right so I I just realized today what is the theme of the the manga it’s literally I guess the character being unlucky right like that’s why it’s called bummer like they kind of show each chapter like a small little panels to it and every chapter has him somehow like being unlucky. So that’s literally the the whole manga that he writes and and it’s funny because I feel like that’s probably exactly how he also lives his life. There’s a lot of like situations going on in his life which probably doesn’t work out and he’s just like a bummer. He that’s how he could write the manga like that. I don’t know. Uh well anyways that was the the whole manga section. I want to read that part. Okay. And uh what else was there? Oh, there was the playing God part where Etchan and uh what was the other girl’s name? Matsui, right? They go and they’re like, “Oh, let’s play God.” And they wait for people to come. The police officer comes and he’s like, “I hope nothing bad, like everything continues the way it is. Everything is peaceful.” So they’re like, “How the hell are we supposed to make this wish come true?” Obviously, they like he wished for nothing happening. So the correct thing to do here is to do nothing. So you know, there you go. That’s it. They were all planning like they were like, “Oh, if people like ask for like money or something, we’ll probably put some money and then we’ll make, you know, make his day.” Or maybe it’s something else. If that person is um like you know thinking something like um what did he say like peace or something? Oh if you want to be healthy they’re like what should we do? And he’s like oh let’s just go and tell them to eat vegetables. Oh boy. You know so yeah that was funny. Okay. Right. And uh what else was there? I talked about the duck face. I talked about the Oh, um, the meeting. Uh, I Nagumo and Nikura meeting. That part was pretty funny as well. Nikura, no, not Nikura. Sorry. Uh, I literally fell into the water. I like how this is like a whole chain reaction starts. H, it starts with um, you know, Nagumo trying to like tiptoe out because she’s like, “Oh, I don’t want to wake her up. Uh, wake Nikura up.” and she wrote that you you owe me money and she goes out. This is where the whole domino effect and the chain reaction starts. He almost bumped into Sensei and he did the whole she did the whole somersault. And this scene was captured by Izumi who was like, “Oh my god, I want to, you know, like I want to make that girl my model. She has some very funny things going on around her life, you know.” So, and she picks up the horse racing thing, you know. So the domino effect starts here. H So after that we have her team that Nikura is chasing um Nagumo because of the whole like you pay you owe me money thing and she was like okay perfect opportunity to snap some pictures and then she falls into the water. Um then she meets Nikura from there and uh then Nikura gets to know that she’s Iumi and she’s like oh my god make me your disciple. you makes you you snap so amazing pictures and she’s like oh I don’t have anything to teach you and then Nagumu also comes in and then he she’s like you there I want you to be my model because you know weird things happens around you so you know like and I find it pretty funny so obviously she gives out the main way how she makes so takes so good pictures which is just snap pictures of things that you think is funny and fun, you know, like that kind of thing. And she does that. Um, right. And uh, there you go. So, that’s how these three meet. Uh, okay. One thing I’ll need to check. Just a minute, guys. Is it these three who are in the opening? Yeah. So, in the opening is these three, you know, the the three that you see like dancing. So, okay. I guess it makes sense. That’s why like, you know, this episode was like these three meeting. Uh obviously there are other characters in the story as well but these two will probably be like the the main ones the main few characters just like how in Nisho we had a lot of characters but you know there was like uh like you know the the like Mio um Nano Hakas uh Yuko and Mai these like these characters were like the main main ones and how Nicho was like divided into two parts like where we had Hakas and Nano being like a duo up until like the first half and Yuko, Mio, and Mai being a trio and then in the mid part they all meet together, you know, in school when uh as far as I can remember, Nano starts going school that part. So, I guess it’ll be something like that here. Obviously, we they had a lot of other characters as well, but and in this show, we’ll probably see a lot more characters later on, but these three will be like the main ones, I guess. Um, right. And yeah, there you go. That was today’s episode. I don’t think there’s anything else to discuss. It was pretty funny throughout. Um, you know, and like I said, the one the the session that I really liked where the manga section where they were like, oh, Mio’s uh like, you know, little cameo or that was very very good. I really liked it. I’m I’m sure maybe they’ll do more like Easter eggs cameos like this in the future. I’ll try to I’ll try to um pay attention and try to understand which parts they are. Uh but I was able to catch the Mio part, you know, like it’s been a while since I watched Ni Joe, but I still was able to guess that, oh, that’s probably an Easter egg. Um right. And yeah, so that part was pretty good. Um I like the the after credit scenes part, the the devil and the angel part was pretty funny. Um and uh not funny but really good section was um Nikura and Nagumo. How they got to know how not how they got to know each other but how Nikura like you know got to know Nagumo like that and how she literally got like a passion after coming in contact with her or after getting to know her. Uh you know she didn’t have anything she wanted to do before that but then she was like oh I want to snap pictures. So that part part was really good as well. Obviously it wasn’t a comedic part but it was a very wholesome part. Um yeah and there you go. Now another thing I want to talk about I really like you know I feel like the the author the the stories that this author makes has a very interesting charm to it. like it and this show as well now I’m watching this it’s really reminding me of shows that I used to watch in my childhood like you know like I used to obviously like shows like I cannot really remember their names but there were like certain like cartoons that I’m pretty sure everyone used to watch uh where we had like a city like this city and there was like so many different characters going about their own life and then there was obviously the main character Um and like you know we used to like obviously follow the main characters but at the same time we used to see like the other characters doing different things and like the whole city is like continuing with the life like it’s like I don’t know how to explain it. It’s like a very interesting like it’s like living in a small little community, you know, like when you live in a small little community like you’ll probably find this more towards villages and stuff, you’ll you’ll understand that the community is so small and tight-knit that everyone in that locality knows everyone. Everyone in the locality knows what the other person is doing and what their situation is. Like nowadays in like in modern cities and like you know in urban areas, we’re just all alone, right? Like we and our family, that’s all we know. We don’t know what’s happening to our neighbors. But in like villages and places like that, it’s like a tight-knit community when everyone knows that, oh, you know what, my neighbor is probably is is this time of the day, my neighbor is probably doing this, you know, or my neighbor is probably uh in a little bit trouble with this or my neighbor is having a good time because of this, you know, like you you will know what’s going on. You’ll know what’s each and every person is doing. It’s kind of like that. And I remember so many shows in my childhood, so many cartoons in my childhood which had that vibe to it because you know like usually animes are just like the main few characters and a few other supporting characters like a whole city like working like it is very rare you know but this was not that rare in cartoons back in the days. Um, I can say a few names like I don’t know if you guys have watched these shows, but shows like um Spongebob Squarepants is a good uh shout out, but Spongebob was more comedy, you could say. It was like like more weird humor, which I really like. I know like there’s a lot of like Spongebob like fans are like kind of divided. There’s a lot of people who absolutely love Spongebob and there’s a lot of people who doesn’t like Spongebob at all. You know, it depends on their type of humor. I for one was someone who absolutely loved Spongebob. Um you know Spongebob Squarepants. So you can say that Spongebob is one of one such example because if you think about it was like the whole bikini bottom. We knew each and every character. We knew what they were doing and this and that what their personality is all that stuff. It was obviously more catered towards comedy. Another show I can say is like I don’t know if you guys have watched this show but I used to watch it when I was a kid. Oswald. It’s like a story like a cartoon about like an octopus like a blue octopus and the I remember the octopus had like a dog. I forgot the dog’s name and it was a very chill type of a like cartoon but it was also something like that where we knew each and every character in the place living and what they were doing what their personality was you know all that stuff a few other examples are probably I don’t know maybe like shows like Bob the Builder um Naughty if if you have watched these you know these are all like cartoons that I used to watch um you know these set of shows where you know the characters living in that place and you you know who they are, what their personalities were. This is one of those shows and it really I don’t know it it kind of makes me nostalgic because it it brings up back the vibe that you know back in the days I as a kid I used to experience watching these shows like you can see this is literally we know each and every or we are going to know each and every person living in this city and what they’re doing what type of personality they have and this and that. Obviously, we have three main characters, but we also have all these people. So, you know, anyways, I just wanted to talk about this. Uh, it it really I don’t know. It just makes me nostalgic about a lot of things. Um, yeah. Okay, I’ll I’ll end it here. That is it. That was my reaction to City the Animation episode 2.

  1. I also think that blue haired mangaka is the reference to Mio. They even share the same voice actress. It's possible she achieved her dream of becoming a mangaka and Nakonahara Daisuke is her pen name.
    Last season, we had Yuru Camp cameos in Mono, this season we have Nichijou cameos in City lol

    I've watched 15+ anime from every season and this is probably the best looking show this year. It's so beautiful

  2. glad you figured it out.

    the pen name daisuke naganohara was also mentioned a few times in the nichijou manga, in chapters made after the anime's release.

    somehow, besides making her look different, the pen name became a subtle loophole that allowed mio to jump ship onto city; because despite coming from the same author, the two works still come from different manga publishers.

    that's probably why some liberties were made to create subtle hints and references that link these two stories together.
