    I think I know who the hawk is.

    spoiler

    There’s only one other character introduced thus far with that set of eyes.

    Given how much Hirose is messing up the story, its only natural that the original animation director would make an appearance. She was also food-poisoned in episode#1, meaning Hirose and Original-Animation-director both could have been Isekai’d into this world.

    The resolution this episode felt sort of unearned. It seemed like we were being lead to believe that this A Tale of Perishing was deeper and more complex than the simple movie that existed in the real world, but then the solution to a philosophical disagreement was just a handsome anime boy and a musical number. And normally I’d be all for that, but that fixing Memmeln’s nihilism felt like a cop-out. Though I did still appreciate the handsome anime boy and musical number.
