When the anime slowed down, so the manga could catch up, it introduced an exclusive 13-episode arc in the meantime. There we got two of the best antagonists in the show: Ail and An. A great example of healing from trauma. And as a whole, this arc's actually more well-built than the 2nd half of R.

If you find yourself agreeing with censorship policies, always ask the question βwho is doing the censoring?β and then ask yourself if you trust those people to censor the right things.
