The animation style and all are just a aesthetic that I love (SHAFT is one of my favorite studios partially due to Zetsubo Sensei and also Ef). I really loved the "Hidden Blade of Conversation" bit in episode 3. Mostly because I have experienced that time after time. Episode 4 was were things got really fun with Chiri and the battle. "Even the downright bizarre Zetsubou Fight segment from episode nine, the weirdest segment the show has ever done, has some depressing truth in it (which basically says we’re all going to kill each other)." Im entitled to agree with this. To me the deadpan narrator and the music both made the scene very creepy to watch. What a great finale though.
