I've read all of your posts, and it's sad to see this series go. I haven't left a lot of comments partly because I'm a bit busy with my studies, and partly because I find writing to be extremely draining and time-consuming, even when it comes to a simple comment over the Internet. I hadn't realized the series had been going for 19 weeks, which is even more impressive when you take into account the phenomenal amount of work you put in each of your blogs. How do you do it?

With all that being said, "The Detective" is definitely an episode that grew on me. I didn't think much of it on my first viewing, and only fairly recently noticed how excellent the writing and animation is. The plot twist was definitely unexpected, and it's exactly what such an episode needed. Though Darwin has his flaws, it's rare to see an episode where he is the "bad" guy, so it does make the episode stand out despite generally being overlooked. The jokes about Anais' height also never fail to make me laugh.

I'll be waiting for your big comeback.
