Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress Battle of Unto film or Ep 1-3 if your Netflix - It was more Kabaneri more fun less politics than the other now ex WIT Show and as good if not better soundtrack than the series. It also felt more focused than the series so I really enjoyed it and hope they give it another sequel.

First Blood (Film) The film that kicked off the Rambo franchise. First Blood is decidedly different from what would come later in the series as it focuses on the police of a small town carrying out a manhunt for the mentally broken Vietnam veteran. It has a surprisingly low death count and the speech near the end is heartbreaking to witness. 4/5
 
Symphogear XV episode 11

O Maidens in Your Savage Season episode 11

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba episode 24

Gunbuster episode 6 [End]
Thoughts in the simulwatch thread - 6/10

Lord El Melloi Case Files ep 0, 1-2

I'd been sort of interested in this one for a while now, but never seemed to get around to actually watching it. It's certainly a change of pace from what you'd normally associate with the Fate franchise, but of these three episodes, only episode 2 gives much indication of (presumably) what the rest is like and, thus far, I've not had any strong feelings about the show one way or the other. In particular, I just don't find Waiver an especially engaging protagonist. I know a lot of folk seemed to like it more once it got into the titular Rail Zepplin storyline, so I'll give it a couple more episodes out of curiosity at least.

Video Girl Ai ep1-6 (rewatch)

Took the chance to revisit this late-80s WSJ romcom with some friends the other night, so it didn't quite have my full attention, but I think it still holds up well. If you don't mind the occasional smutty joke and some casual nudity, it's actually a rather sweet little story that plays its paper-thin premise (magical idol girl climbs out of the TV to comfort a lovelorn boy) to the absolute hilt, aided by a great early turn for Megumi Hayashibara in the lead role. The heavy reliance on video-cassette technology does date it, but with its pastel-hued vision of a modernist, utopian Tokyo that seems only to exist in movies and fashion catalogues, it seems more like a period fantasy now, than anything intended to resemble reality.

I also think it ends at exactly the right point. The manga continued on for quite a while after the anime stops, but in its 6 episodes, the anime resolves enough that you can treat it as a nice, compact little show that doesn't drag on into apathy. Without wanting to spoil anything, it really goes some places in the last episode too...
 
Lord El Melloi Case Files does seem to get better and better with every episode, I wasn't all that thrilled with the first episode or two, but now that I'm all caught up except for this weeks episode, it's definitely going to be a series I buy on Blu-ray for sure.

Demon Slayer ep 24
The "comedy" is back, although there was an interesting backstory moment.

Fire Force ep 10
Big reveal.

Lord El-Melloi II ep 11
Closing in on a culprit.

Dr. Stone ep 11
Seeing things more clearly.
 
Boruto: Naruto Next Generations episode 124 Making a choice.

Vinland Saga episode 10 Some great reward.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes episodes 14-26

Passing my dream on. Nice to see Shinobu open up more.

Fairy Tail Episode 326
Lucy's Strategy.

Mix: Meisei Story Episode 23
This has been one hell of an enthralling semi-final match.

Shoujo☆Conte All Starlight Episode 11

The Ones Within Episode 11
Looking after kids sure isn't easy.

Vinland Saga Episode 10
Not much of a reward.
 
Shirobako episodes 5-6
I really liked this mini arc that addressed the 3D vs 2D animation debate.

Non Non Biyori episode 3

The Idolm@ster episode 1
With Atsushi Nishigori directing, this series wouldn't be too out of place as a late Gainax/Trigger series with it's expressive and energetic animation. Characters seem fun and it's nice to see an idol series that doesn't rely on CG dance scenes.
 
Wasteful Days of Highschool Girls episode 11
O Maidens In Your Savage Season episode 11
Saga of Tanya The Evil: Movie
Vinland Saga
episode 10
Fire Force episode 10
Durarara X2 (first arc) (complete)

An all guns blazing fight.

Cop Craft Episode 10
A decent episode.

Hensuki: Are you willing to fall in love with a pervert, as long as she’s a cutie? Episode 11
Pool episode and major reveals. That ending tho...

Teasing Master Takagi-san 2 Episode 11
This has been such a comfy second season, shame its coming to an end.

To the Abandoned Sacred Beasts Episode 12 (Complete)
A solid punch. (A personal undertaking anime and a decent one at that with it's interesting story plot and has a strong cast of very intriguing characters. Hopefully this gets a second season). 3.5/5
