After a wild episode 1, the episode starts to add some interesting world-building aspects.
Outside Sanda the rest of the cast is nuts. Though learning from Amaya that the birthrate of kids is down and society itself is doing worse. Given that no one believes in Santa or celebrates Christmas, does it mean society lost its youth? Basically it’s all in misery. Though I am curious, what was the root of all of this?


I do think the headmaster’s idea of rebuilding society through children makes sense, but how he is doing it is probably wrong. As he doesn’t like seeing children dealing with emotional trauma, it’s just wrong. As it is through difficulties in life that we are allowed to grow. Granted, trauma requires you to be there for the student, not throw them and let them fend for themselves.

One concern I do have for Sanda is that is his personality just going to be Santa? I am not sure if it was meant to be a gag, but I would love it to be a split personality rather than Santa changing forms.


Also, St. Nick is allied with the headmaster, which is interesting.
