MP100 S2 ep 9 - ngl bit disappointed as it was a set up episode even though last week kinda promised action. I assume this is covering the whole manga but Dark Horse are very slow so I cant tell.

There will probably need to be a film or season 3 to adapt everything. Season 1 only adapted 6 out of 16 Volumes. (50 out of 101 chapters but the second half ones are much longer, 4 of the volumes only contain 2 chapters each)
 
The Anthem of the Heart (Japanese audio) - Film

Was an okay film. I really enjoyed most of the film but I wasn't too sure about the last act. Music was great tho.

Ueno-san ep 9
1.21 Jigawatts!

The Promised Neverland ep 8
Had some good moments of dread. How are they going to recover from that cliffhanger!?

Magical Girl Spec Ops Asuka ep 8
Magical Spanking! Weird mix of brutality and beach episode shenanigans in this episode.

Domestic Girlfriend ep 8
That awkward moment when your new older sister who's also your teacher walks in on you kissing your other new sister!

SAO: Alicization ep 20
Another conversationally heavy episode. Looks like it'll be more action packed next week.

Endro~! ep 8
The Princess is so keen on the hero having to act like a hero she fakes her own kidnapping!

Kemono Friends s2 e8
An idol show and the Friends chasing our protagonist finally catch up.

The Magnificent KOTOBUKI ep 8
I'm finding most of these episodes quite samey with only a slight twist and very little overall plot.

WATATEN! ep 9
A date and a sleep over.

Ekoda-chan ep 9
Bad day at the office. Quite a chaotic, but funny episode.

Mob Psycho 100 s2 e9
Claws intentions revealed as was the fate of Mob's family after that cliffhanger.

Dororo ep 9
Sad backstory. I liked the way they took most of the colour out of the art apart from the red. AUKNAEOTYC

As for the reveal, I got that episode 1! I mean I also looked it up to be sure, especially after finding out how young her VA was. I know using female VAs is a thing for young boys, but Rio Suzuki is only 13/14 so I guess they are going for authenticity, although I think Dororo is younger.

All caught up, pretty much. You can tell I had the day off! Just one episode of Karakuri Circus left and I've put Boogiepop on hold till the end of the season.
 
Fairy Tail (English Dub) Episode 295

3D Kanojo: Real Girl 2nd Season Episode 9 [21]
More character development. Looking forward and making plans for the future.

WATATEN!: An Angel Flew Down to Me Episode 9
A date at the cinema. Reliving old memories and a sleepover.
 
Kaguya-sama ep 7
...okay, more than a week behind now, sorta. This episode had a lot of great animation moments and some really good expressions, but the jokes didn't do a huge amount for me. Comparatively - it's still very good.

A Certain Magical Index ep 21
Ooh, things are really starting to get good now. Looks like big clashes likely next episode. Can't wait for that. Also can't wait for more of the LNs...

Bermuda Triangle ep 8
This episode had a surprising amount of layers to it. I was thinking "eh" early on but by the end I was thoroughly impressed.

Not sure why I laughed as much as I did at this either :p
 
Ace Attorney 2nd Season (Dub) episode 39 More flashbacks with Mia Fey.

Black Clover episode 73 I thought there’d be another tournament arc somewhere along the line.

Run with the Wind episode 20 You gotta run.

Kino’s Journey -the beautiful world- The animated series episodes 10-12 (Complete. It was interesting to see how this adaptation of Kino differed from the previous 2003 iteration. I did find myself preferring the original over this, as though Kino 2017 is a decent anime, it doesn’t quite have the atmosphere and bleak charm of 2003.

Some of the stories also felt a bit too on the nose with their themes where 2003 allowed for more interpretation and build-up. I also wasn’t as big of a fan of the Shizu/Riki/Ti focused segments for the most part. Despite these flaws, Kino 2017 is still a solid iteration, even if I do miss the scanlines and preferred the old artstyle.) 3.5/5
 
Maid-sama ep 1-27 (OVA is included on the blu ray) [completed]

It was alright, some good moments... but can't shake the feeling it was too long for what it gave me. 5/10
 
Planet With ep10-11

Honestly, it feels like the series reached its climax at episode 9. I understand why it's continuing on, but it doesn't feel like there's an awful lot at stake anymore. There is more I could say, but I'll hang on until I've finished it.

Laid Back Camp ep6-7

Ah, so that's the Secret Society BLANKET I've heard so much about.
 
In This Corner of the World (Japanese audio) - Film

The film started a bit rough but once it slows its pace it was really investing to watch, the second half can get under your skin due to the fact that World War II's final moments were mainly focused on Japan not surrendering until the bombs happened. It's basically a tone shift from a simple slice of life to some really serious and quite depressing moments that reminded me of Grave of the Fireflies at times. Animation was well done and the characters were great too.

A Certain Magical Index III (English Dub) Episode 19

The Rising of the Shield Hero (English Dub) Episode 9
Another solid episode. To think that Melty would turn out be the 2nd Princess of Melomarc, that was pretty surprising. Just how much more of a useless dumbass can the Spear Hero be, he has gone from being an idiot to a downright creepy lolicon pervert, at least he got what was coming to him (again) though... OUCH! That ending tho... I saw that coming.

Kemurikusa Episode 9
More exploration and another encounter with another sister.
