My Dress-up Darling 1-12
was going to drop this after a couple of episodes as the spineless stuttering MC ("a-a-a-an indirect kiss!") is my least favourite trope at the moment. glad I stuck with it though, cute romance and some interesting stuff about cosplaying that I didn't know about. 7/10
Berserk 1997 1-12
somehow I've not seen this until now. yes, I know.
anyway this is very good, great pacing making for a classic "just one more episode" experience. I'm not a fan of some of the music, and the over-the-top still images during important moments can be a bit cheesy (I'm assuming these are from the manga?).
oh and that ... thing ... around Griffith's neck is super creepy! brrrrr.

Blue Giant (Japanese) - Movie (Complete)
Glad this got a second showing in my area which I could attend. This was a beautiful movie about jazz, the performances in it were just wonderful and really kept you locked in on the screen. Look forward to re-watching in the future, highly recommend.

Started the day with Jason And The Argonauts and The 7th Voyage Of Sinbad, both with the Harryhausen commentary.
Is It Wrong etc etc episodes 12-22: At some point the never ending parade of monsters attacking our heroes starts to pall. Nice bit of Lady Ryu's backstory interwoven in with the endless fighting, and the occasional glimpse at the world above ground. It does sound like the have upped the budget on dramatic music.
Series was a bit short with just the 22 episodes and no proper extras. Also, I'm not sure it moved the story forward that much.

I just wanted to know why all the kids were cosplaying these characters at my last anime convention. I'll keep going to the end of season one and reexamine my mental state.

That image has a very positive vibe!
I didn't mind all the emotional stuff in My Hero Academia, I dropped it after S1 for it's excessively generic feel though

Yes, there is a lot of resonance with a number of much better quality anime. Actually, it was watching stuff like this (Dragonball Z maybe) back in 2003-04 that made me force my nieces and nephew (oldest at the time was 8) to watch decent anime. I'm sure all that 12/15 rated stuff hasn't corrupted them at all.I didn't mind all the emotional stuff in My Hero Academia, I dropped it after S1 for it's excessively generic feel though

Bang Brave Bang Bravern ep4
Delicious in Dungeon ep5
The Witch and the Beast ep4
Having had this down as middle of the road hokum, I was pleasantly surprised by this week’s instalment, the story seemed noticeably more engaging. The change in the main group of characters was a surprise too, although I presume it’s not permanent, given that I don’t think the new duo are in the opening sequence.
Frieren ep1-2
Finally decided to give Frieren a shot. Suitably impressed so far; as I’d expected, it is something I need to be in the right frame of mind for as my initial impression is of it being rather melancholy (even if it is often quite funny), but it does an excellent job of showing that Frieren herself has a very different viewpoint from those around her, given her much longer lifespan. It’s also quietly a really nice looking series - still screenshots don’t do it justice.
