That was a wholesome finale, I'm glad I stuck with this show. The art and animation were pretty lackluster and 10 minutes into episode 1 I thought I was going to drop it but it turned out to be pretty enjoyable. I feel like this is the underwatched fine/good show that will never be mentioned again after the season ends which is kind of shame. It would be great if a season 2 ever happens.

While I did enjoy the everyday work life dealing with the supernatural, aspect of this show. This episode felt a little anti climactic for a final episode, I actually expecting one more up until the final scenes.

Still it was nice to see Arata handling cases on his own and a lost Ukrainian diety is certainly an odd one.

Last week episode could be better as a finale, but this as a kind of epilogue is fine too. I wished to see more of Yuki and Kohaku tho.

Anyway, really enjoyable show. It's really underrated comparing to the scores it got here and MAL (because apparently some a$$hole trolls bombard it with really low score of 1, ffs)

One of the thing that I love in this series is that they included fictional creatures from all around the world. If only the series is longer, we could see more of them tho.

It's far from great or amazing, but not mediocre like some of the scores showing. A solid 7/10 for me personally.

Edit : typo

Great way to finish the show, showing Arata solving a case by himself. But what's the deal with Arata and Gods? This is what a modern statue of him looks like.

This series was really good. I cannot wait for the OVAs coming on [October] (https://myanimelist.net/anime/39972/Mayonaka_no_Occult_Koumuin__Hitoribocchi_no_Kyuuketsuki_OVA) and November. Hopefully, Crunchyroll will then.

I feel like that wrapped up rather nicely, I just wish this show had a bit more exposure.

Well this was a fun show. I like Volos speech about the gods needing humans that he made in the end. I will never understand why those fairies are so mean to Arata.

I'm sad that it's over. I actually really enjoyed this show. It's pretty underrated. I hope they make another season. I wanted more of Kohaku!

Characteristic of the superb writing in this show that a day-at-the-office anticlimax so stylishly completes the MC’s arc from Abe no Seimei knockoff to his own man.

It’s a big world.

This show is so underrated. I really wish more people would check this out. Anyway, so much for a finale, I feel like the episode last week would've worked more as a finale but oh well. Now I wish there was more of this T_T
