Pen15 - | Season 1- Episode 3

Episode 3 of PEN15 (“Ojichan”) is the one where Maya’s inner world collides with real life. On the surface: she and Anna try to start an anime club to impress a boy (hi, Gabe 👋). Under the surface: Maya is grieving her grandfather (Ojichan) and doesn’t know how to say it.

4/6 Also: the scene where Maya imagines Ojichan as an anime mentor while she fights a shadow monster? Brilliant visual metaphor for grief. PEN15 - Season 1- Episode 3
