Review of Arakawa Under the Bridge
My god do I not love this show. I originally watched both season 1 and season 2 when they were airing and to be honest I was having fun, but I was also f*cking confused about what was going in the show. Arakawa is funny, the characters and plots are great, the opening is addictive, but I thought it aligned more to Biyori and its only purpose was to be funny (which it did a great job at), buy oh boy I was so wrong. Now I re-watched it in entirety I understood what a underrated show it is and what it is trying to say.All the ridiculousness tells some deep philosophies about the society, but it is done so well that these philosophical messages will just slip away if you don't want to interpret the messages and wouldn't hinder you from enjoying the funniness of the show at all.
Now I just wish there is a 3rd season, since season 1&2 only covered first 8 volumes of the manga (1&2 aired in 2010, but mange didn't finish until 2015), and there are 15 volume in total. That being said, if you enjoy watching it, go read the manga!
