86 – 12 (S2 E01) – New Home, New Hope
86 is back…and there are some changes. San Magnolia’s awful system hasn’t changed, and Lena is still stuck in it (for now), but she’s adjusted the way she…
Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation – 12 (S2 E01) – Eyes Forward
After a longer-than-expected hiatus, Mushoku Tensei is back, and I’m pleased to report it’s just as good—and occasionally unnecessarily lewd—as ever. There’s a new OP, and it̵…
