A lot of irl stuff happened to me this past season (beyond just breaking my hand, which is now basically recovered) and I sort of fell off of the seasonal anime train at some point, oops! Anyway, fresh start with the new season, let’s go!

My friends and I did manage to keep up with the shows we decided to watch together, and they were all outstanding (light spoilers for all of them)

Dungeon Meshi

Absolutely stunning start to finish and we’re all eagerly awaiting the next season. I am thrilled that at the very end they managed to finally tie the monster-eating and sister-saving sides of the story together in a way that makes sense even though it’s weird as hell, lol. 10/10

Tonari no Yokai-san

It took a while to build up, but holy shit did it hit hard when it got to its climax. We were all sort of shocked at how dark the last arc got but the ending was soooo satisfying. 9/10 I tried looking it up and it seems there’s not even a fan translation of the manga T_T

Wind Breaker

Quite a bit rockier in its pacing than I would have liked, but still very fun. I love all these weirdos and want nothing but the best for them. Ultimately this sort of story is more about the journey than the destination, so I don’t even really care that it ended 1-2 episodes into a new plot arc, lol. 8/10

I’ve also started watching Odd Taxi, which I bounced off of when it aired (mostly due to the extended sequences of the comedy duo on the radio) but have heard nothing but good things about since. So far it’s a little slow but I’m putting my faith in the good reviews.
