Bakemonogatari [Rewatch] episodes 9-10

Tesagure! Bukatsumono episodes 9-10

Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story episode 12

If My Favourite Pop Idol Made it to the Budokan, I Would Die episode 12 - End
Another fun series from 8Bit. The series balances a good mix of comedy and yuri with a lot of fun characters. Production was also great coming from the director of Encouragement of Climb with 2D dance scenes and background art being big highlights. I hope for a second season. 8/10
 
A Destructive God Sits next to Me, Bokuhaka episode 12 (Complete. After Outburst Dreamer Boys dealt with similar themes recently this felt like familiar ground but the characters weren’t quite as likeable and ended up being irritating at times. This wasn’t bad but I doubt I’d return for a rewatch.) 3/5

In/Spectre
episode 12 Reasons that transcend reason. (Complete. Dialogue heavy but never boring, this was something different and entertained thanks to a tight cast of characters.) 3.5/5

Magia Record: Mahou Shoujo Madoka☆Magica Gaiden
episode 13 Stronger. (Complete. A decent spin-off that seems to be continuing so I’m curious to see how events continue to unfold.) 3.5/5

My Hero Academia Fourth Season
episode 87 What’s new, pussycat?

Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (Film) The humble beginnings with a few odd alterations that stick out like random extra rocks and extra CG aliens.

Trinity Blood episodes 7-16

The Saga Of Tanya The Evil-this is the 2nd time I've watched this but it's much better with the excellent english dub and video from the japanese blurays. I have watched the movie which is also great.

Granblue Fantasy The Animation Season 2 Episode 13 (Djeeta Chapter) Myths and Trials.

If My Favorite Pop Idol Made It to the Budokan, I Would Die Episode 12 Festival show time. (Complete. An interesting take on the Idol series genre from the fans pov. While it didn't do anything else different from the norm, it was still pretty decent overall.) 3/5

In/Spectre Episode 12 A satisfying conclusion. (Complete. A supernatural series with an element of Mystery thrown in combined with a darker subplot that made for some stomach-turning moments that was emphasized with the characters histories.) 3.5/5

Infinite Dendrogram Episode 11 Big gamble, bigger risks.

Interspecies Reviewers [Uncensored] Episode 12 Reminiscing. (Complete. Peak culture at it's absolute finest.) 5/5

Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka☆Magica Side Story Episode 13 An explosive cliffhanger. (Complete... for now. For a side story, this was pretty decent for the most part.

My Hero Academia Season 4 Episode 24 Rankings and a new threat.

Somali and the Forest Spirit Episode 12 Together untill the end. (Complete. An emotional fantasy series portraying a lost human girl who's kind is detested and her unusual familial attachment with a seemingly devoid of all emotions Golem. Overall it was thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish.) 3.5/5

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime OVA Episode 3 Another fun and welcome instalment into the series.

The Seven Deadly Sins: Wrath of the Gods Episode 24 Onwards and Upwards. (Complete. For the most part this was a pretty decent season for what it's worth, but it did suffer from production issues which didn't help thanks to the change in studio. I'm hoping the next season is better.) 2.5/5

Toilet Bound Hanako-kun Episode 12 Persistent fish. (Complete. Another supernatural series with it's own version of the Seven School Mysteries folktales with some darker undertones. The art style did take some getting use to though.) 3.5/5

Yatogame-chan Observation Diary 2nd Season Episode 12 Triple power. (Complete. Pretty much more of the same from the previous season, but it was still a fun series altogether.) 3/5
 
Cat’s Eye ep6-7

The show is definitely hitting its stride now; I’m glad they’ve kept Asatani as a regular character, having her as a foil for Toshi really helps the dynamic.

Laid Back Camp ep3 (rewatch)

Didn’t remember it from before, but Rin’s continued grumping about having paid over the odds to use the campsite feels entirely relatable. I went to an overpriced calligraphy class a few months back and spent the entire time only able to think about how I’d paid £20 to be there.
 
Konosuba: God's Blessing on this Wonderful World! Legend of Crimson-just as fun as it was when I saw it in a local theater a few months ago.
 
First 10/10 of the season goes to.... Asteroid in Love. Could easily watch more of this

Finished so far this season:

Asteroid in Love - 10/10
Azur Lane - 7/10
Heya Camp - 7/10
The Island of Giant Insects - 3/10
In/Spectre - 7/10
Fate/Grand Order - Dropped
 
Ghost Stories
Amazing. So silly and rude but you can tell everyone involved in the dub is having a great time.

Picard
Great little series. Some elements of the finale were a little predictable. Epsiode 7 was probably the best for me.

Clone Wars Season 1 rewatch
Now D+ is out giving this a ful rewatch before the final season. Bit kiddy at times but this season still has some gems in it.

Smash and Grab
Little pixar style 8 min short on D+ really charming.

AD Police To Protect and Serve
Fun show this with some really good character arcs for its main 2 protagonists. I've put more extensive thoughts in the Gunsmith Cats/Bubblegum Crisis simulwatch thread.

Gonna Be The Twin-Tail!!
Funny and silly. Weaponized fetishes. There you have it.

Brass Eye episodes Animals and Drugs
Hilarious. Had pretty much forgotten the animals epsiode entirely so was nice to watch again. And the drugs ones is great too.

Tenchi Muyo OVA collection
The first season was excellent. The 2nd didnt quite match up to it but still a fun watch. The Mihoshi special was also great fun.

Tesagure! Bukatsumono episodes 11-12 - End
Despite it's animation being exactly what you'd expect from Yaoyorozu this is a fun series with plenty of laughs and fourth wall destruction. Interestingly much of the dialogue is improvised prior to animation, a rare sight in a medium where the animation is done prior to voice acting. Definitely gonna check out season 2 sometime. 7/10

Kizumonogatari Parts 1-3

The prequel to Bakemonogatari. Still the best part of the franchise I've seen so far and one of my favourite anime film experiences. Character writing is so much stronger here with a better artistic direction than other parts of the series. Animation too is incredible with it's CGI settings and iconic animation sequences such as Kou Yoshinari's scene from Part 3. Overall a phenomenal work and well deserving of a 10/10 score.


  1. Bakemonogatari [Rewatch]
  2. Kizumonogatari Part 1: Tekketsu [Rewatch]
  3. Kizumonogatari Part 2: Nekketsu [Rewatch]
  4. Kizumonogatari Part 3: Reiketsu [Rewatch]
  5. Nisemonogatari [Rewatch]
  6. Nekomonogatari Black [Rewatch]

Science Ninja Team Gatchaman - Episodes 64 - 67 (Blu-ray)

Picard


I enjoyed seeing these characters again and the series as a whole even if the ending was rather predictable with an incredibly cheesy final scene.
