Don't see how that affects anything but here's my attempt at an answer.

  1. I didn't know that was the case
  2. If that is the case, I still don't know which character you're talking about
  3. I have no issue with it. I should have started and ended with this thought.

If I'm missing something, please let me know.

Edit: I think I can see some viewpoints that would have issues with it. I guess my viewpoint is that I hope I see the character, not the real person in fictional shows. the talent can best suspend my understanding that the person is acting and replace it with what the person wants me to believe.

I started episode 3 and a girl was having the same flashbacks about what she did to move up the corporate ladder and that she will do the same thing in whatever this is. Then, she said all those same things out loud to herself. The fighter guy did the same thing about the woman he loves. They provided no new information. They repeated things we already learned in episode 1 and 2. Maybe I missed some plot advancement from the flashbacks and talking to yourselves. Which, I now understand to be common in this genre. From people explaining this stuff to me, I'm not ruling out the genre, I'm just thinking this one show isn't for me.

Thanks. For me, I'm thinking it's too many flashbacks that repeat the same message with no advancement. I thought each flashback in Breaking Bad served a purpose. There may or may not be anime manga I find interesting. I'll pass on this one. Edit: I don't know who's down voting you. I upvoted because you taught me a lot.

Succinctly done. Nice. I didn't (still don't) know what anime/manga is beyond that it's like cartoons and that it's from or maybe only truly can be made in Japan. I didn't know this was anime. Again, I thought anime was cartoons? and if so, is that a revolutionary part of the show? The first live action anime? I didn't know that anime characters are known for all the explaining. It's what they do. I did a few minutes of opening google links to explain some things and un-explain others. No need for any more explanations. I can find the answers. Anime's not for me. Oh well.
