Everyone's Reactions

It was a surprise to see Kuro-chan and her troop of tiny Shiba Inus make a special cameo in Grand Blue—it felt like actual celebrities sneaking into the anime! Hearing that the live performance at the Okinawa izakaya was recorded on-site during the voice recording sessions made me feel like they were really spoiling us with production. There was even a post about people mistaking Ota for Kōhei just because of his blonde hair, which makes you want to make sure you know who your favorite is! The note about the upcoming tear-jerking finale has my heart racing. Watching them live their youth in Okinawa makes me want to savor this group's everyday life until the very last moment.
