The Fable - Episode 1 - The Fable Taps Forehead
The Fable, a professional hitman, has a method for switching between Japan's popular dialects. It looks ridiculous. The Fable - Episode 1
The Way of the Househusband, Golgo 13: The Professional, Golgo 13, The Fable
The Fable - Episode 11 - The Fable Kills Gangster
Does Fable need to replace his Osaka accent to kill people again? Killing has a cadence and grammar, so why not? The Fable - Episode 11
The Fable – 19
What I found myself thinking a lot this week was how poignant this story can be.
The Fable – 11
With all these elements colliding, it would be a good time not to stand in front of the fan.
The Fable – 07
The style of humor here feels appropriate for a series about gangsters, which is a rarity in anime.
The Fable – 09
All of these people are tainted by the life they've chosen, even when they try and leave it behind.
The Fable – 04
It's a given that a series about people who kill for a living is going to feature not nice people.
The Fable – 13
There are times when a lack of style can actually be a style (whether intentionally or not).
The Fable – 08
Maybe the most dangerous thing in Osaka is a bored Youko.
The Fable – 15
This was certainly the most linear episode of The Fable so far.
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 – 17
I don't think you'd pick anybody in a head-to-head with Akira (or Fable), but Utsubo is clearly no one to take lightly.
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 – 05
While the humor is somewhat hit and miss, there's a generally absurdist tone to this material which I quite like.
The Fable – 22
None of these people have any idea what they're up against with Akira.
The Fable – 16
In thinking about it The Fable is kind of what would happen if King of the Hill and The Coen Brothers had a love child.
The Fable – 23
As much as anything, for me this is a series for viewers who appreciate acting.
The Fable – 03
I'll say this for The Fable - I've liked every episode better than the one before it.
First Impressions – The Fable
In terms of pre-season expectations, The Fable is the biggest premiere of the season so far.
The Fable – 20-21
Could there be anything more Japanese than a guy coming into a house, pointing a gun at you, and saying "somebody walked into your house without taking off…
The Fable – Episode 1
Likely to fall into obscurity on Disney+, unless the casual anime viewer has been secretly dying for tongue-in-cheek deadpan homage to the aesthetics of 70s hitman manga
