Orguss 02 episode 1 (rewatch)
I picked this up on DVD second-hand recently, so no time like the present. There's some pretty bad compression and pixilation here, though. Maybe the VHS was better!

Lucky Star episode 19 (rewatch)
 
Had an hours waiting time in my van, so 2 more Crunchyroll passport shows, on the phone app Bluetoothed to the speakers.

Dies Irae ep 0
What if Nazi Germany had all powerful mages is what I got from the episode, but the synopsis of the series sounds totally different. I guess I'll have to watch episode 1 to get a true feeling for the series.

Kino's Journey ep 1
Interesting question asked in the first episode, what if it wasn't illegal to kill?
The animation was too clean, if that makes sense, and the environments especially were a bit sterile. The music was pretty good though.

Just Magus' Bride to go. It was already on my list, but I'm guessing that the prequel parts don't count so will need more time to watch.
 
Fate/Apocrypha-Episode 16

Glad to see they didn't totally forget about Assassin of Black.

Black Clover
-Episode 4

Happy at least things happened this week, unlike the last.

Food Wars: The Third Plate
-Episode 4

I think this festival thing has dragged on a little bit too much, happy to move on next time.

Katanagatari
-Episode 12 (Complete)

Gorgeous animation, amazing characters and some awesome action scenes to boot, this was a really fantastic series. Shame no one has it in the UK.
 
Garo Vanishing Line eps 1-3 this show is bonkers but has some cool action & characters, same that not many are watching it

Zodiac War ep 4 - Quite a dull episode this week

Children of the Whale ep 3 - Brutal episode, will be interesting to see where things go from here

Fate Apoc ep 16
 
31 Days of Halloween Day 24: Satan's Blade (1984, L. Scott Castillo, Jr.) This was pretty shite, but there are worse slashers out there.

Avatar: The Last Airbender Book one: Water (Rewatch)
episodes 1-4 Decided to watch this again since it's been a long time. Still as good as ever

Juni Taisen: Zodiac War ep 4
Very back story heavy episode and not particularly exciting one, but we learnt some new stuff about the character featured.
As soon as I saw it was Monkey I hoped that the pattern so far wouldn't continue with the back story character getting killed and it didn't, but it may do soon as she's run into Rabbit, but she does have a powerful ability by the looks of things. But that battle may have to wait as the preview showed the Goat for the next episode. Haven't seen anything of Tiger since the first episode.

Stranger Things ep 5 & 6
Oh, those 80s nostalgia tingles!
 
Juni Taisen ep4

Kind of treading water a bit this week. Sharyu as a character is pretty much exactly as I'd expected her to be, so I haven't found her all that interesting.

On a side note, the civilian woman shot during her montage sequence looked an awful lot like Saber...
 
The Ancient Magus' Bride (Japanese audio) - Episodes 1-3

As I watched the prequel OVA series last night I decided to go straight into the current episodes of the main series as well. This is really good, I might even give it a perfect rating if it keeps this up.
 
You're Under Arrest TV 13-20 (rewatch)

In This Corner of the World (dub)
A story about war in all its mundanity and then horror when it visits the protagonists home town. Not as grim as Grave of the Fireflies as only the second half deals with the direct affect of war, rather than the whole film, but definitely has it's grim moments.
I liked the MC and her characteristics, but as someone here said when giving their thoughts, the romance side was lacking something.
I liked the animation apart from the sometimes the hands were freakishly large.

Yuki Yuna is a Hero ep 4-6 (sub)
One sweet SoL episode, then an epic battle episode and finally an episode of recovery.
 
31 Days of Halloween Day 25: The Brood (1979, David Cronenberg) An interesting horror thriller by one of the greatest (and underappreciated) directors of our times.

Black Clover
episode 4. We at the Chunin exams already?

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations episode 30

Avatar: The Last Airbender Book One: Water (Rewatch) episodes 5-8
