Harem trash is starting to reclaim its place from isekai trash as the top seasonal slop. Nature is healing.

I’m so relieved Aoi’s dad actually is a whale researcher and not a whale ““researcher””. It would have been a weird twist but this show being willing to break the mold somewhat has me second guessing everything.
