Past Seasons

I gave Tomo-chan Is a Girl! one episode. It is decent, but not good enough to keep me watching.

Also, I dislike the male lead, Junichirou. Based on his interactions with their mutual friend Misuzu, I don’t think he is dense. But that just makes the fact that he does not acknowledge Tomo’s feelings much worse.

I also tried The Quintessential Quintuplets. I enjoyed it more than Tomo-chan, so I have watched up to episode 10. However, I don’t really like the latest development in the show. It is rather cliche, and the male lead, Fuutarou, has been fumbling it so badly.

I don’t get the praise others have for Fuutarou. He is not spineless and trashy like other romance / romcom / harem protagonists. However, he can be pretty selfish at times which is a turn-off.

I hope that the last two episodes can salvage the show, but I don’t have high hopes for it. I may not continue with season 2.

This Season

I have watched 2 episodes of Umamusume: Cinderella Gray - it is so fucking hype!

I don’t usually watch sports shows, but I have noticed that the protagonist is always the underdog who overcome all odds to achieve greatness. It is a very standard plot, but if the execution is good, I don’t mind giving it my time.

Umamusume: Cinderella Gray’s first two episodes certainly delivered, so I will be catching up with the rest of it.
