    Welcome! If you need to charge your phones, note that this house has Yokohama wiring, but we have Nagoya and Shikoku adapters available.

    You can leave at any time through the door over there. It’s a shoji door, so you’ll need to find a compatible knob. No, don’t be silly, that one is a fusuma knob! Of course it won’t fit.










  • It’s mostly episodic like the original series and 90s Trek but it has some season long story arcs. But it’s modern in its style of telling. It’s funny without resorting to being MCU quippy. And the science is closer to modern science fiction rather than TOS’ parallel worlds pattern.

    That said, it has a mix of action and moral dilemma and politics. There are “needs of the many” stories that don’t have clear right or wrong, the psychological impact from the horrors of war stories, even a courtroom episode that rivaled the best ones from TOS and TNG. But there are also flashy fan servicey episodes that are just fun.

    I suggest giving the first episode a go. It sets the mood for the rest of the first two seasons. Each episode brings something different, but I think the first episode really speaks to what the series is trying to be.
