Arte episode 12 Return. (Complete. It was nice seeing a different kind of setting for a familiar story of an aspiring artist trying to make it against the odds, with the added burdens of cultural attitudes of the time. The arc that Arte takes, especially their trip to Venice, allowed the story time to breathe and for Arte to develop further as an artist and as a person. A second season would be welcome.) 3.5/5
Ascendance of a Bookworm Part 2 episode 26 Memories and mana. (Complete. A strong second season which built upon the previous established story whilst forcing Main to confront some of the consequences associated with the life she now leads. Very much hoping that this will see a continuation one day.) 4/5
My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes lead to Doom! episode 12 Don’t cry all alone. (Complete. A lot of fun and fairly laidback throughout outside of the drama creeping towards the end and references to the real world. Season 2 should be enjoyable.) 3.5/5
Sing “YESTERDAY” For Me episode 12 Finally putting it right. (Complete. My thoughts on this are a bit mixed though that may be due to not being the biggest fan of love triangles/squares. I stuck with it though, as some characters were more likeable than others and I was curious as to how the story would resolve itself and found the ending to be solid enough. Overall, this may be one to rewatch in the future to get a second opinion for.) 3/5
Bungo Stray Dogs 2 episodes 19-25 (Complete. A stronger season that delves deeper into the darker side of the various conflicts seen throughout BSG.) 4/5
Bungo Stray Dogs: Dead Apple (Film) A decent film that ramps up the scale of the action, it wasn’t one of the best arcs but still offered some entertaining fights. 3.5/5
Bungo Stray Dogs 3 episodes 26-31
