The first season of the anime adaptation can be found on Netflix. Season 2 is confirmed and presumably currently in production.

DO NOT SPOIL THE ANIME WATCHERS

This is so that the anime watchers can sub to the community without worry of seeing posts that would spoil later parts of the story. This includes manga pages and panels, mentioning characters, fanart, etc.

Parent instance rules also apply, of course.

After watching the first couple of episodes, my wife and I were considering having our 8-year-old watch it with us. Then I noticed the TV-MA rating.

Not looking for spoilers, but like, is the show gonna take a bit of a turn, eventually? There hasn't been anything CLOSE to TV-M-worth thus far, in my mind.

It's looking like a full adaptation. The pace is 3 chapters per episode so far, which would nicely wrap up the whole manga into the 24 episodes.

I'm watching blind and I had no idea its this short. That's cool, I love a good short story.

The manga took years, the publishing pace was one chapter a month, but holy shit they were bangers every time. Especially later on in the story, you'd think you'd forget to come back an read each chapter with a four week gap each time, but no.

I'm not entirely sure though, and I haven't seen it confirmed anywhere. Some chapters are really huge, so adapting three every episode might not work for the whole thing. We'll see, but I'm hoping I'm right, and we are getting a full adaptation with beginning, middle, and end, each part twice as dense with quality.
