Okay, okay, you've convinced me, jeez.
(A slice of life that actually makes me feel things? You sold me from line 1!)
It is so good, but don't expect it to be overwhelmingly amazing. The first word I would use to describe it is calm. I think the reason they're so extremely excited to see it mentioned is because it's so very rarely talked about, because the calm and deliberate atmosphere doesn't lend itself to a lot of clip compilations or "Favorite Moments in Anime" discussions.
This video does it justice, I think.
Yes, it absolutely does it justice.
It even does a good job of capturing a bit of the Mushishi vibe in and of itself.
And yes you are spot on the nose with why I got so excited. It is RARE that Mushishi pops up in conversations.
