Sometimes people say it’s a leftist anime but I think it’s way too stupid all of the time to have any real ideology to it and it’s better not to seriously think about the politics of it because it will rot your brain quickly. However, it was very fun and I liked it. Suzaku is a cop.
It’s the epitome of “anime politics”, with all the political literacy of a saturday morning cartoon show. The bad guys are bad because they’re bad, the good guys are good because they’re good (but they also struggle with their internal demons to be edgy and cool!). The first season is way better. Suzaku is the dumbest man alive. Justice for Kallen, she didn’t deserve all the leering shots.
