Kuuchuu Buranko/Trapeze

I watched this just the other day but I can't really say I enjoyed it overall. I felt like it dragged on too long plus there were a bunch of design choices that made no sense to me such as why irabu constantly changes between a man, shota, and bear.
Newspaper owner, psychiatrist and yakuza were my favourite episodes.

I'd agree that some of choices, particularly Irabu and his injection fetish/Mayumi, brought the quality of the show down overall. Although I took his 3 forms as Freud's id, ego, and superego, with the bear almost definitely representing the id, since that's the form he's always in when the patients are receiving their injections.

I binge watched it with a friend a couple of years ago and at first the designs made me not feel really compelled to watch it. It ended up being really fun, it's really underapreciated in here.

>Irabu and his injection fetish
This was cringe inducing.

The visuals are some of the most initially jarring I've ever seen, even if they're not bad. It took me nearly a month after watching the first episode, but I watched the rest in the span of a couple days.

I wish there were more experimental anime like Trapeze.
Sure, not everything worked well but it was creative and comical.

It's a very good oddity story, like a condensed version of Monogatari.

An underappreciated gem of an anime, but I understand why most don't care for it. It's certainly not for everyone.

Wish the novels were licensed, or at least the one that was wasn't out of print. Fuji should also push for more weird novel adaptations like this and let Nakamura direct them.
