Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba ep 22
The pillars are all... interesting.

Astra: Lost in Space ep 9
Lots crammed into a single episode. Some of it effective, some less so.
 
Cannon Busters ep2-3

It did cross my mind to wonder if Cannon Busters was skewed towards a younger audience - it's positively twee at times - but it also seems a bit explicitly violent for that. Credit where it's due, I certainly wasn't expecting the Texas Chainsaw Massacre reference with the murderous cannibal family in the desert, but they didn't really do anything interesting with that and it's just not that engaging generally.

Based on these first three episodes, I think I'll just shelve this one. It's passable enough, but for all the length of time it's been in production and the apparent struggle to get it out there, it's pretty average, boiler-plate stuff.

How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift? ep 6-7 (English Dub)

Even without comparing it to the subtitle script, it's increasingly apparent that the dub is taking a lot of liberty with the dialogue in the interests of localisation, but it kind of works here.
 
Lord El-Melloi II ep 9
That went some way in answering my question from last week.

Demon Slayer ep 22
Temptation
(You can take it or leave it)
Temptation
(But you'd better believe it)

O Maidens in Your Savage Season eps 8 & 9
Bringing urban legends to life and the aftermath.
 
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba episode 22 Using your head.

Fairy Tail: Final Season episode 324 The power of love and all that.

Mindhunter: Season Two episodes 11-13
 
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba episode 22

O Maidens in Your Savage Season episode 9

The Demon Girl Next Door episode 8

Symphogear XV episode 9

Fruits Basket 1st Season episode 22

I'll watch more Precure tomorrow and I should be up to date with the season

Vinland Saga Episode 9
That fight was brutal. It also reminded me of the Hulk-Loki scene from Avengers.
 
Vinland Saga episode 9
I'm really enjoying this anime but I can't quite place if its down to the show itself or just the fact that it's a bit different to the usual stuff what with the setting and all.

Cop Craft episode 9 Never insult Kei’s partner.

To the Abandoned Sacred Beasts episode 10 I want to remember him.

Mindhunter: Season Two episodes 18-19 A solid second season, one that put its subplot focus elsewhere and continued to explore grizzly murders in uncompromising detail.

Peaky Blinders episode 1 Finally checking this out.
 
Gall Force: Earth Chapter ep3

An okay ending to this arc, but I feel like it suffers from similar problems to the original trilogy, in that it seems to have been artificially extended in the interest of selling more tapes/LDs. I'd also have been far more willing to accept the idea of making peace with the MME if they'd ever shown any redeeming qualities.
