>>95088435It's not what I feel, it's an obvious fact, the show is actually some kind of hybrid mixing 70's, 80's, 90's and even 50's elements on it, there is some 2000's atmosphere on the middle school season but it's because it was made later.
the thing we are talking here it's comparing the current shit kids do on the 2010's with what EEnE kids did on the past, so we are focused on the atmosphere of the show, not on that supposed "canon" according to random background elements, I also sincerely don't think there is a very coherent canon on that show, there is only little references or easter eggs to some former episodes but really, we all know there is no relevant continuity, this is not an anime story arc or a capeshit cycle.
