Karakuri Circus

I’ve been re-reading this classic shonen adventure series by Kazuhiro Fujita. It’s a damn shame that they’re skipping over so much of the story with the current anime adaptation but it’s also fascinating to see how they decided which scenes to include and piece together. I’m just really bummed what they did with Lise and now she’s just there with the Nakamachi circus without an introduction. It reminds me how jarring Hakyuu Houshin Engi was earlier this year.

Still a fantastic series that gets me every time.
