Panchi Line

My small obsession with Kotaro Uchikoshi continues as I delve into one of his latest works - Punch Line, an anime he worked on as the writer. I was interested in seeing how a story made by him in a completely different genre than Zero Escape would look, and what I didn’t expect was just how many conventions would return, even though some of them felt completely tied to his most famous VN series’ premise. With that said, let me start by describing what this show’s about. I’m gonna spoil the kind of stuff that I wouldn’t mind if someone else spoiled me on, but I’m probably above average in terms of spoiler tolerance, so this is your fair warning.
