Both Lady Snowblood films, some more Bluey, Grimoire of Zero episodes 1-9, and the first three episodes of Master of Study, a Korean drama about one determined man trying to turn a school of delinquents into stars before the school is closed down (based on a manga and apparently very popular in SE Asia for its depiction of "hard" education). GoZ I enjoyed, although I did find myself at the end credits of some episodes asking myself whether anything had actually happened.
 
Grimoire of Zero episodes 10-12: very disappointed with the ending, which I felt was just one a big wimp out. I mean
why would the soldiers and witches suddenly stop fighting? Take away the weapons of one side in a battle and the opposition will slaughter them. Not sure I'm gong to keep this one.
Master of Study episodes 4-8: ooh, so much tension and unorthodox teaching methods. I'm enjoying this.

I could have sworn there was a spoiler in there. Can anyone else see it?

Master of Study episodes 7.5-10: Enjoying this show of torturing teenagers to get them into university. I can see why this is so popular in Asia, where parents are probably forcing their kids to watch it for the study tips alone and teachers are threatening some of the torturous lessons, and also why this would never be remade in the US or UK. I also love how the kids are playing close to their age (they're all 17-18 playing 15-16ish).

Ranma 1/2 episodes 24-35: Put this on while waiting for IT to fix the work computer system. As you can see, it took a long time (they actually gave up at 3am and we were allowed to leave early without doing any actual work). Finally we get to meet the old lady (300 year old Amazon grandmother of Shampoo) and the dirty old man (trainer of Ranma and Akane's parents and infamous panty thief). All good fun and a nice distraction from the fact I wasn't working.
