Ikebukuro West Gate Park ep 1
Vigilante justice.
Seems like a detective show, except the detective isn't a cop, but a streetwise ex-tearaway.

The Misfit of Demon King Academy episodes 8-13 (End)
Really enjoyed this one. Plenty of interesting lore and a fun cast with Anos being one of the better takes on the overpowered MC trope.
Tsuritama episodes 2-3
Laid-Back Camp [Rewatch] episode 1
Yeah that's right I'm rewatching the comfy show for the nth time. This'll be a weekly watch in preparation for Season 2 next year.

Burn the Witch (ep1-2)
Honestly, quite disappointed with this. I had high hopes given its pedigree, but having expected a lavish production with ‘FROM THE CREATOR OF MEGAHIT BLEACH’ writ extremely large, I was surprised at how modest and uninspiring it actually is. It’s not unwatchable, but it’s just not as much fun or as engaging as it ought to be and, even at its short runtime, I couldn’t be bothered to finish it.

Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear ep 1
Seems a bit like BOFURI except the MC starts out already OP. In fact she's so OP already I found this episode boring as hell.
Also there's a weird discrepancy between the premise, both MAL and Funimation make it sound like an isekai, and what actually happened in this episode where we see her enter the world via an VRMMO headset, hense the BOFURI reference (unless the isekai-ing happens later).
Noblesse ep 1
So engineered super soldiers vs vampires. Action looked cool. The SOL bit attempted to be amusing, but I'm not sure how much more of it there will be, hopefully a lot less.
AKIRA (at the cinema in 4K and IMAX, sub)
The 4K definitely made most scenes sharper and I spotted a few new details, like you could tell there was a different hand behind different scenes. Although some scenes were a little blurry for some reason. The sound was very load and I heard a few new things as well at different points.
The cinema experience itself was a little weird though, wearing a mask throughout and the complex where the cinema is based was completely empty.

Kimisen, Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World episode 1 This seems like a familiar set up though if executed well could be a good drama.
Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear episode 1 At first this reminded me of one the games they made in New Game!.
Noblesse OVA & episode 1 Thought to watch the OVA from a few years back before the first episode.

Only just realized this has the same character designer that did Stars Align. Really enjoy their designs

Akira (Cinema 4K IMAX)
It was great to watch Akira in the cinema again, I've seen this film so many times and it's not perfect by any means but it's a joy to watch nonetheless.
I had the experience at my screening, there were a couple of new things I noticed plus a couple of scenes that looked just a little blurry as you say.

Higurashi: When They Cry (Japanese audio) - Episodes 22-26 (Finished)
A pretty solid series overall. My only issue is the show hasn't aged well in its animation and the horror tones suffer in numerous parts (so rather than being freaked out, you just can't help be amused by their expressions).

Akudama Drive ep 1
Bad luck!
Pretty stylish and cool so far with some interesting characters. Wonder where it'll go from here.
Higurashi - NEW ep 2
Tag and summer festival.
Adachi and Shimamura ep 1
Seems like a sweet yuri show about 2 truants.

Adachi and Shimamura episode 1 Looks to be a nice SoL yuri series so far.
Akudama Drive episode 1 This should fill the cyberpunk-Esque hole left by NGL S2.
Higurashi: When They Cry - NEW episode 2 Summer madness.

A Certain Scientific Railgun T (English Dub) Episode 22
Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out! Episode 5
Adachi and Shimamura Episode 1 SoL yuri goodness.
Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World Episode 1 This looks promising.
Strike Witches: 501st Joint Fighter Wing Take Off! (Rewatch) Episode 1-12 and short film (Complete. On rewatch this is still a fun show and getting to see the comical hijinks made it worth it, just a shame that the eps are so short. As for the short film that was also another fun revisit.) 3/5
Strike Witches Episode 6-12 (Complete. A decent series that made good use of its aerial combat sequences for some up close fanservice. Overall a rather fun show.) 3/5
Strike Witches 2 Episode 1-12 (Complete. Pretty much more of the same from the previous season. Overall another decent season that remained fun throughout.) 3/5
Strike Witches Movie (Film) (Complete. Another decent and welcome instalment into the franchise that takes place after the events of victory arrow.) 3/5
Strike Witches: Operation Victory Arrow OVA's 1-3 (Complete. A decent couple of OVA episodes that focuses on the members of the 501st after the events of the second season whilst also setting up future events for the film.) 3/5
Strike Witches: Road to Berlin (Rewatch) Episode 1

Assault Lily: BOUQUET ep 2
Yep, the yuri is strong with this one although much more in a trashy way than with Adachi and Shimamura.
Wandering Witch ep 2
First encounter of the journey, more yuri bait!
1m Lives ep 2
New job.
Rail Romanesque ep 2
Pairing up, even more yuri bait!
Jujutsu Kaisen ep 2
Choose your hell.

Ep 1 of Noblesse...unless you've read the webtoon or watch Noblesse Awakening this wouldn't make any sense to people. So glad its got an anime as i love the webtoon.

Kakegurui XX episodes 5-8
Assault Lily: BOUQUET episode 2 An uncertain pairing?
Fire Force Season 2 episode 39 Mech love.
Haikyu!!: To the Top 2nd Season episode 15 The animation here was a bit lacking this week.
I'm Standing on a Million Lives episode 2 Flashbacks.
Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? III episode 2 Mob rules.
Jujutsu Kaisen (TV) episode 2 Steeled resolve.
MajoTabi, The Journey of Elaina episode 2 A brand new friend.
TONIKAWA: Over the Moon For You episode 2 Still very pleasant though hoping the series doesn’t become too formulaic.
31 Days of Halloween! Day IX: Universal’s Frankenstein Sequel Marathon: Son of Frankenstein, Curse of Frankenstein, Frankenstein meets the Wolfman (Films)
Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans episodes 44-50 (Complete. The first season of IBO was good fun and felt like a refreshing take for the Gundam series whilst the second continued the story and concluded in a bittersweet fashion. This was a solid entry for the Gundam franchise that wasn’t afraid to amass a body count.) 4/5
