100-man 8-9, Peach Boy and Hamefura 10-11
If this is a village, where is everyone? 100-Man 8’s big question (to me) is why chief Cox want to grind his village into the ground like he’s…
Riverside, Hamefura, Tantei, and Kobayashi-san 8-9
When it looked like we’d go off to meet a mysterious witch in Peach Boy Riverside 6, instead we hop, er, forward, to Sally’s big decision, Mikoto or…
6-7, Tantei, Kobayashi, 100-Man
Okay, that’s a cool-looking monster. I’ve talked about Peach Boy hopping around time, but Tantei wa Mou, Shindeiru does the same thing. At least with episode 6 we…
4s, 5s, 6s, and a couple 7s–Maid-dragon, 100-man, Idaten, Peachboy, Hamefura
I find I have nothing whatsoever to say about Koboyashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon 4 and 5. Episode 5 might be the more productive in that Ilulu finds…
4-5s, Peachboy, Hamefura, Tantei, and Jahy 1
Back to Peach Boy Riverside, a show that apparently likes to hop around. As I recall there was a fighting contest going on, but episode 4 gives us…
2-3s, Shinigami, Maid dragon, 100-man, and a new one.
And four days pass before I can watch another episode, and longer when I finally post this … Anyway time to catch up with Shinigami Bocchan to Kuro…
The Idaten Deities Know Only Peace, The Duke of Death and His Maid
2-3 Peachboy, Hamefura, Genjitsu, Tantei
Both choices suck for different reasons. Peachboy Riverside 2 and 3 takes the setup and hops around a little, so that it’s confusing. In ep2 we meet Mikoto,…
Summer 2021 3
Kobayashi 2 begins with a view of Kobayashi’s happy apartment building. This time we start with Kyoto Animation’s return to TV, Kobayashi-san chi no Maidragon S. The show…

As I’ve gotten even older I’ve gotten more picky in the shows that I watch. And, as I think I said before, I don’t have the time or…
Twos, threes, fours, fives …
How important political decisions affect Akatsuki. Log Horizon 3 2 is full of exposition and conversations as the situation for Akiba gets worse. Eins is withdrawing from the…
Log Horizon, Suppose a Kid from the Last Dungeon Boonies moved to a starter town?, Otherside Picnic
Twos and threes: Horimiya, Mushoku, Biyori2, Slime, Wonder Egg
Drama! The thing about Horimiya, well, two episodes in, is that it covers the romcom tropes, what to get Hori for her birthday, the misunderstanding over the missing…
Horimiya, Non Non Biyori, Non Non Biyori Nonstop, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, WONDER EGG PRIORITY
Twos and threes: Lasdan(?), Picnic, Yuru Camp, Kumo

Suppose a Kid from the Last Dungeon Boonies moved to a starter town?, Otherside Picnic

Winter 2021 1
My stay-at-home order was lifted this month so it’s back to the office for me. I won’t have as much time to watch, but I’ll at least try…
Suppose a Kid from the Last Dungeon Boonies moved to a starter town?, Heaven’s Design Team, Otherside Picnic
The last of the finales: KimiSen, Usagi Bloom
That doesn’t look good … I really didn’t want to watch KimiSen 11; it would be a long-talk episode where I would get more confused on who’s on…
Finales and stuff: Assault Lily, Sigrdrifa, Kuma Bear
Some shows have finished, but Assault Lily Bouquet has another episode after 11. It’s set up to be a big climactic battle between a monstrous Huge and ……
Finales: Tonikaku, Tabitabi, 100-man
Tonikaku Kawaii 11 is one of the livelier ones, because it’s a takoyaki party! Basically, Nasa finds a takoyaki grill in that old apartment (which has a million…
Assault Lily 10, Usagi 9, Tabitabi and 100-man 11
Assault Lily Bouquet 10, naturally, deals with the aftermath of Yuri’s death. Yep, she’s actually dead, but on the other hand, we got Misuzu’s ghost popping up at…
Sigrdrifa 9-10, Tonikaku 10, Kuma 9-10, Kimisen 10
Senyoku no Sigridrifa 9 has three things going on. While we jump around a bit the most time is spent with Sono, who still can’t fly. Now, I…
Eights through tens: Assault Lily, Tabitabi, 100-man
Foreshadowing. Assault Lily Bouquet 8 goes light, with a school competition to show off abilities, new weapons, and of course a cosplay competition. There isn’t much to it,…
Still catching up: Kimisen, Kuma, Usagi
Iska in captivity. Let’s see, way way back when I last watched KimiSen, Alice and Rin had accidentally poisoned Iska’s drink and now have him in custody. Since…
Catching up–Sigrdrifa and Tonikaku
Apart from herself. It’s been ages since I last looked at Senyoku no Sigrdrifa, but I remembered that episode 7 wasn’t going to go well for the good…
Catching up: Assault Lily, Tabitabi, 100-man
Assault Lily Bouquet 7 is delayed because of COVID, but I haven’t watched episode 6 yet … Quite a good episode, too. It starts with comedy and infodumps…
Catching up: Usagi, Fruit Tart
They’re actually customers, but they can’t help it. Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka Bloom 4 brings us the school festival. Of course it’s all happy-happy, with Rize and…
Catching up: KimiSen, Kuma Bear
I wondered that about the entire episode. KimiSen 4 is a frustrating excuse of setting things up and not following through. First it’s a casino, where Iska and…
Fours, fives, and sixes: 100-man, Tonikaku, Sigrdrifa
The team is coming together nicely. 100-man no Inochi no Ue ni Ore wa Tatte Iru 4 continues to explore moral dilemmas and selfishness with some humorous bits…
Mostly 4s and a couple 5s as I fall farther behind
Lurina’s about to go on a fun ride! Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear 3 continues in its cheerful way, Yuna killing so many beasts that Fina can’t harvest them…
Akudama Drive, Is the Order a Rabbit?, Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear, Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina
Some 2s but mostly 3s
The second episode is even better. The only show this season that has had me doubled over with laughter is Gochuumon wa Usagi Desuka Bloom. With episode 2,…
Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina, Dropout Idol Fruit Tart, Warlords of Sigrdrifa, TONIKAWA: Over The Moon For You, By the Grace of the Gods
A lot of episode 2’s but not all of them
Time to look at the shows I haven’t dropped yet, starting with Assault Lily Bouquet, where it’s the first day of school, but classes don’t start until the…
TONIKAWA: Over The Moon For You, Akudama Drive, By the Grace of the Gods, Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear, Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina
Fall 2020 3
Akudama begins with it’s own title, very bold with loud sounds. In Akudama Drive we have a futuristic Kansai complete with dirigibles and gaudy lights in the cyberpunk…
Dropout Idol Fruit Tart, Akudama Drive, Is the Order a Rabbit?
Fall 2020 2
That’s a wall. Now we have Iwa Kakeru! Sport Climbing Girls, one of those shows where the hero, Konomi in this case, enters high school and wonders what…

Uzaki-chan 7-9, Monster Musume 8-9, Deca-dence 10, Railgun 22

DECA-DENCE, Monster, Monster Girl Doctor, Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!

6, 7, and 8’s – Decadence, Maou Gakuin, Uzaki-chan, Houkago Teibou Nisshi, Oisha-san
Deca-dence either is being coy with the clues it’s giving us, or I’m just not paying attention. The interplay between the robot world and the “human” one seems…
DECA-DENCE, Diary of Our Days at the Breakwater, Monster, Monster Girl Doctor
Deca-dence 6, Uzaki and Monster Musume 5, Railgun T 18-19, Fishing girls 6, Maou Gakuin 7
In Deca-dence 6, as expected, Kaburagi gets his punishment, working on a bug-rehabilitation shit-shoveling (literally) duty. Things are pretty rotten for him but he’s reminded in an audio…
Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!, DECA-DENCE, Diary of Our Days at the Breakwater, Monster, Monster Girl Doctor
Uzaki and Monster Musume 4, Houkago 5, Maou Gakuin 5-6, Deca-dence 5
Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai 4, like the others, is divided into sketches. First it’s a little gaming, then Shinichi gets dragged off by you-know-who to get blue-light blocking glasses,…
Monster, Monster Girl Doctor, Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!, DECA-DENCE, Diary of Our Days at the Breakwater
Railgun and fishing girls return, and other shows
Well well well look who’s back! Hi girls! Welcome back! Er, whenever you’re ready… I figured the next story of Toaru Kagaku no Railgun T would be the…
A Certain Scientific Railgun, A Certain Scientific Railgun T, DECA-DENCE, Diary of Our Days at the Breakwater
More twos and threes: Uzaki-chan, Kanojo, Peter Grill, Monster Musume
More of the same from Uzaki-cnan wa Asobitai! Uzaki spots Shinichi at his job at a cafe and harasses him there. Luckily the cafe owner thinks it’s funny…
Monster, Monster Girl Doctor, Peter Grill and the Philosopher's Time
Twos and Threes: HxEros, re:LIGHTS, Maou Gakuin, Deca-Dence
Let’s see how the few shows I’ve chosen look like in round 2. A typical conversation in this show. Dokyuu Hentai HxEros doesn’t get much better. It starts…
New Summer 2020, all in one post!
Hello again and welcome to my Summer 2020 preview of the few shows I might watch. As usual, I’m going mostly by the Random Curiosity preview page. I…
Monster, Monster Girl Doctor, Peter Grill and the Philosopher's Time, Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!, DECA-DENCE
Finales, Tower, Kakushigoto, Nami, Hamefura
Tower of God 12 turns out to be a typical penultimate episode, with the good side rallying, the bad side dying or retreating, and a seeming betrayal at…
Elevens: Hamefura, Kakushigoto, ToG, Nami
Hamefura 11 spends the first half of the episode or thereabouts in a static mode, with each character (save Maria, who is still captured) talking about the comatose…
Tens: Kakushigoto, Tower, Nami, Hamefura
They want the truth. Kakushigoto 10 doesn’t have much theme-play this week. The closes thing we get is Hime being a bad girl for eating the cookies and…
Nines: Nami, Tower of God, Kakushigoto, Hamefura
When it became clear that Minare would meet Mitsuo again in Nami yo Kiitekure 9, well the episode pretty much played out like I expected, though I was…
