Pop out some babies of from the JesusxIceQueen pairing then see how many are worthwhile. Anyway I think the author is pretty inconsistent with how Maya/Family behave in general and how the society works. True. I mean they did just that after all... In the end I actually agree. It does seem like something the older generations might have done. Maybe the Kudou kid is the only one we were told about or the only one I remember while there are tons more. | ||

Merely pointing out I read that autism itself seems to be linked more to the fathers age from what I read than mothers. Those odds seem really high dam. Do you have the source(paper?)? Would be interesting read. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11943789 Here's the source, knock yourself out. | ||

It also creates a contrast to Ginko's unusual appearance + Show Spoiler + which is due to him having a deeper connection to mushi than most On May 12 2015 23:46 Miragee wrote: I just hope that there will be more in depth information in the future but so far I'm fine that I only get to see different forms of Mushi. The stories themselves have been very enjoyable so far. In-depth information about what? The mushi are, in the world of Mushishi, a part of nature just like plants, animals etc. I guess you do get some tidbits here and there, but it's mostly just about the different mushi, their effects on everyday people and how Ginko deals with it.

Some episodes definitely have tension though, especially in the second season. | ||

That's the beauty of it. Some episodes definitely have tension though, especially in the second season. Yea, my favorite episode in the second season was the thorn path one where the guy is just kind of emotionally dead and he uses some weird thing to seal off the ultimate evil mushi. The thing is i don't like feeling that nothing happened. Also, i want ginko to go out with that female person ( i forgot her name but she was a recurring character as well i think) On May 13 2015 01:25 Unleashing wrote: That's not what it means when people refer to healing anime/manga, it's more so stuff like K-on, Non non biyori or Yotsuba&! Edit: Also there's some scientific ground behind having kids as fast as possible, the first eggs a woman 'readies' up for fertilization are generally speaking the healthiest. There's a strong link between birth defects and maternal age. Ehhh, i was watching YuYuYu and takahiro(author) said that it was a healing story and that show basically put its viewers through suffering 4 episodes straight before delivering with a happy conclusion. Madoka tv series was pretty healing as well. | ||

That doesn't mean you can't have a healing experience or experience a form of catharsis from watching a series with suffering and drama though. But that series wont become a "Iyashikei" style/type anime/manga.  | ||

Yea, I was healed. K-on or a show like gochiusa on the other hand does not heal me  . They were just fun. | ||
