Now that I'm older, I can't watch anime. It's such a cringey melodramatic style, I feel like I'm patronizingly told how I should feel at every moment, and the production style is un-intentionally chaotic. Rollercoasters with shrill voices of children screaming in stilted gasps of awe, surprise, anger and glee... It's like stabbing myself in the ear for half an hour. The garish visuals, low-budget animation and juvenile aesthetics just put a campy cherry on it.
And that specific episode was one of the last nails in that coffin. Such tripe honestly. No nuance. No attempt to discuss the ethics with any degree of maturity or connection to the real world. It's an unmitigated failure in literally every way it's possible for a work of ostensible art to be.
