Ryo manages to track down Tanya&#8217;s mother and discovers the true story of the mysterious disappearance.<\/p>\n<p>The long shots employed are still sub-par, but for the most part the characters are on model this time around. I suppose this is largely due to Saeko&#8217;s absence, because she&#8217;s clearly difficult to animate.<\/p>\n<p>It was nice for Xiang Ying to see herself in Tanya, which led to Xin Hong&#8217;s comic-relief role being deployed most effectively. Ryo is now giving Xiang Ying faux autonomy, and not in the blatant &#8220;standing around the corner&#8221; manner of the previous episode. Even better than that, the theme of the story and its pertinence to the characters evokes itself naturally, and is in no way condescending.<\/p>\n<p>This story is not yet complete, but this is an example of how to make a good episode of <i>Angel Heart<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-02.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-03.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-04.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-05.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-06.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-07.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-08.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-09.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-10.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/batrock.net\/animeimages\/ah15-11.JPG\" alt width=\"300\" height=\"170\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" border=\"1\"><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Find my Papa!&#8221; This is like an actual City Hunter job.
