Attack on Titan Season 3 (English Dub) Episode 2

Asobi Asobase (Sub) Episode 8
Another good episode. Olivia plays a bacterial version of "Pokemon GO". A recent shopping trip turns into a slight misunderstanding between the girls and a home made board game causes embarrassment for the girls with a few amusing references to other shows.

Attack on Titan Season 3 (Sub) Episode 6

Gegege no Kitarou 2018 (Sub) Episode 22

Hanebado! (Sub) Episode 9
Conny tries to reconcile with Ayano with some encouragement from Yuika, and Uchika returns home to see Ayano which IMO wasn't the best choice considering Ayano's state of mind and her feelings towards her.

High Score Girl (Sub) Episode 7
Hidaka tries to get closer to Yaguchi and a class trip to Kyoto nearly turns into a disaster.

ISLAND (Sub) Episode 9

Planet With (Sub) Episode 8
 
The asterisk war 14-24
This wasn’t a bad couple series, shout out to a conveniently timed review of season 1 by @IncendiaryLemon for getting me to give it a go, biggest bug beat I have with it is the ending, it doesn’t have a satisfying end, things are going on then it just seems to stop whilst having given you details about what’s going to happen next, it peeves me when stuff like that happens. At least have a satisfying conclusion between each season if nothing else.

Chio’s school road 5
This was a bit of fun, especially peoples reaction to what Chio did with her tea...

How not to summon a demon lord 5

Kakuriyo 19
 
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (English Dub) episodes 33-44

My backlogs make me suffer. I'll attempt at least four episodes or 1 film per day from my on-disc backlog after wrapping up a few series
 
Asobi Asobase -workshop of fun- episode 8 Hunting bacteria, telling lies and playing a bizarre board games, the latter of which was probably the funniest segment in the series so far.

Attack on Titan 3rd Season episode 43 Setup and exposition AoT style.

Hanebado! episode 9 Not sure what Connie expected from this endeavour, but seeing Ayano go from cute and quirky to that soulless player made it clear that their relationship is basically nothing to her.

Planet With episode 8 Some backstory, comedy and Kuroi breaking down at the thought of further conflict.

We sell Tsukumogami episode 6 Retrieving a stolen heirloom.

Sailor Moon S episodes 106-120
 
Love Position - The Legend of Halley

A re-watch ahead of a review on the podcast.

Casshan - Episodes 4 - 8 (Blu-ray)

Despite its simplistic story telling Casshan is surprisingly deep and incredibly violent.

Banana Fish - Episode 8

Planet With - Episode 8
 
Review Starlight ep 7
It's all a little bit of history repeating, or is it?

Yuuna and the Haunted Hotsprings ep 7
The title, sort of, says it all.

Planet With ep 8
A twist on how the powers work and Souya gets some bad news.

Cells at Work ep 8
Felt like an episode that should have been earlier in the season as it teaches us the basics about blood circulation.
Heard about a doctor giving notes on Reddit about each episode, here's this weeks. Also has links to previous weeks.

Armed Girl's Machiavellism (English Dub) Episode 1 - 12 + OVA (Complete)

Magical Girl Raising Project (English Dub) Episode 5

Dropkick on My Devil!! (Sub) Episode 8

Encouragement of Climb 3rd Season (Sub) Episode 9

Holmes of Kyoto (Sub) Episode 8
Kiyotaka receives a usual request to solve a rather unusual case. That ending scene between Aoi and Kiyotaka was a rather touching moment.

Kakuriyo: Bed & Breakfast for Spirits (Sub) Episode 22
As Aoi prepares the ceremony dishes, Raiju makes his move.

One Room Season 2 (Sub) Episode 8

Phantom in the Twilight (Sub) Episode 8
 
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (English Dub) episodes 45-52

Drifters OVAs 1-2 - Continuing the story where season 1 ended. Not really much to say aside from the usual comedy antics and an introduction to Tamon Yamaguchi and the United Merchant Guild.
 
Dropkick on my Devil! episode 8 Jashin develops a gambling habit and more shenanigans with Pekora.

Holmes of Kyoto episode 8 Investigating a difficult relationship situation.

Kakuriyo -bed & breakfast for Spirits- episode 22 Aoi confronts one of her biggest fears in physical form.

Phantom in the Twilight episode 8 Amnesia is a lazy story trope and I'm sad to see it used here.

Steins;Gate Zero (Dub) episode 17 Mayuri finally admits her feelings and yet another tense climax.

Sailor Moon S episodes 121-127 (Complete. This was still fun but the repetitive storylines didn't do many favours with only a few really standing out. I also didn't care for the newer characters who just sort of hung around acting pseudo-antagonists for the most part. It was a good season but arguably the weakest so far, especially some face-palming decisions along the way.) 3.5/5

Doctor Who The War Machines Chose a random story from my collection and decided to watch it. Do like a bit of William Hartnell, just a shame a lot of his stories are a bit slow and sluggish (or sadly missing.)
 
Gall Force 2: Destruction

A welcome return for the Starfront Fighting Gals (particularly Lufy) in a companion piece that fleshes out the story of the first film, but as pointed out on the Retro Anime Podcast, this is a much talkier affair than its predecessor, despite its considerably shorter running time, and the action is largely confined to two main setpieces. I'm curious to see how it'll fit together with the third film; at the moment, the new cast are so underdeveloped that their personalities feel barely defined beyond their character designs, and, strangely, the Paranoid alien antagonists were almost completely absent. It's still watchable and possibly even a little slicker to look at this time around, but if you needed proof that cynically splitting a sequel into two parts is not a new phenomenon, look no further.
 
Jet lag's a naughty bad word so I've ended up in bed before nine o'clock each night since I got back o_O
Up-to-date on the following so far:

Steins;Gate 0
Cells at Work
Overlord III
How Not To Summon a Demon Lord

Still need to catch-up on everything else and I suppose I should post some photos of the stuff I bought in Japan. Honestly though, it ended up being mostly t-shirts and CDs :rolleyes:
