    This show continues to be a delight, with a little magic thrown in.

    There really wasn’t much in this particular episode to do with the Tokusatsu villain theme, but that’s okay.

    The little bits of how it feels to live in winter-time Japan were great.

    I didn’t know this about mikan citrus, but a quick google says it is a fruit that is in season in winter

    And I can imagine that for people living in drafty and poorly insulated older Japanese apartments, or if you don’t want to waste energy heating the whole apartment, a kotatsu table is both energy efficient and comfortable.

    And I can definitely imagine it’s tough to leave the kotatsu if the room is very cold.
