    I went back and checked how they did this in the manga and this episode actually ends mid-chapter (chapter 15). So, it wasn’t a cliffhanger at all in the source. However, I really like how they did it in the show. The cliffhanger was really well done.

    Edit: Also, yes. We have only adapted 14.5 chapters so far in 7 episodes.

      This is crazy, because it really feels like we’ve done way more than that. I guess because the pacing can take its time to really give an immersive feel to the world. Sounds like I’ll be reading the manga after the anime’s done though; this is def good enough to warrant it, even if I feel like the atmosphere of the anime is one of its strongest points.

      I think part of why I like this cliffhanger more than your average cliffhanger is we know what’s going to happen. It’s not like some bog-standard “oh no, it looks like our hero is about to die, how will they possibly get out of this? Find out next time!” that builds suspense but is also incredibly annoying. We know that there’s either going to be an ass whooping or someone will come in and stop it. So the suspense is a positive one.
