Stuff from last season:

• Apothecary Diaries - A solid ending for a solid show. Glad to say I liked the final episode of the season more than the penultimate one.
• Apocalypse Hotel - This show started out good and then very quickly became great. I was worried there wasn’t enough material to keep a team of robots running a hotel interesting but they certainly proved me wrong! Hard to say whether this or Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuux was anime of the season for me.

Stuff from this season:

• The Summer Hikaru Died - A highly-rated horror yaoi manga brought to animation by the same studio that gave us Bang Brave Bang Bravern and the aforementioned Apocalypse Hotel. The first episode was pretty solid. Overall it looks pretty good, which is no guarantee when it comes to horror manga. Definitely good enough to get me interested in episode 2.
• City: The Animation - Same mangaka and animation studio as Nichijou, and it shows in all the right ways. It seems a little calmer than Nichijou so far, but that could very easily be because it spent most of its runtime introducing a wide cast of characters. Excited to see where it goes from here.
• Witch Watch - Witch Watch continues. It’s fun, but I’m not sure it holds up to the other shows I’m discussing here.
• Nyaight of the Living Cat - Haven’t seen the first episode yet, but I’m putting this here just to say I’ve seen the trailer and I am very intrigued. Hopefully I can rope my wife into watching this with me tonight.

Other stuff:

• Yakitate Japan!! - I mentioned this earlier, but this is an anime about making bread that’s better than another guy’s bread. There are bread tournament arcs and everything, judged by a zany character who is voiced by my favorite voice actor. It’s a wild time; I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a fun old relatively low-stress thing.
• Ghost in the Shell: Stand-alone Complex - I don’t know if I have much to say about this other than it’s good sci-fi and those who like good sci-fi should consider watching it.
• Gintama - I got back on the Gintama train recently. I’m somewhere around episode 220 and it continues to be funny as hell.
• Princess Jellyfish - My wife has been watching this one, and I’ve watched about an episode and a half with her. Seems like a good show; I’ll likely finish it at some point but I have no idea when.
