The Fable – 15
This was certainly the most linear episode of The Fable so far.
The Fable – 24
What a singularly bizarre creation Akira is, but undeniably a memorable one.
The Fable – 07
The style of humor here feels appropriate for a series about gangsters, which is a rarity in anime.
The Fable – 03
I'll say this for The Fable - I've liked every episode better than the one before it.
The Fable – 22
None of these people have any idea what they're up against with Akira.

The Fable – 17

The Fable – 10
The Fable is a living example of great manga's power to thrive with middling adaptation (but it does have to at least be middling).
The Fable – 08
Maybe the most dangerous thing in Osaka is a bored Youko.
The Fable – 14
I don't doubt that this subplot could turn dark, but honestly it seems like the whole Kuro arc is mostly going to be about comic relief.
The Fable – 04
