「我らにも癒しは必要だ」 (Warera ni mo Iyashi wa Hitsuyou Da) "Even We Need Some Healing, Too" A cozy look into the hobbies of a villain.
Tonari no Youkai-san – 11
The sheer tonal chasm between the two main threads of this series is among the widest I can recall in quite a while.
Tonari no Youkai-san – 03
In general, I think Tonari no Youkai-san is getting the balance between its dual natures pretty much right so far.
Tonari no Youkai-san – 08
At this point I may as well just accept that I'm probably in for the duration with Tonari no Youkai-san.
Tonari no Youkai-san – 10
I feel kinda Grinch-y for my mixed reaction to this episode.
Kyuujitsu no Warumono-san – 03
I'm buying what Warumono-san is selling, and I feel like I know the level at which it's trying to operate.
Tonari no Youkai-san – 07
This constituted a needed course correction.
Tonari no Youkai-san – 09

Tonari no Youkai-san – 04
I think the importance of mystery to the health of the human psyche is vastly underrated.
Tonari no Youkai-san – 05
This show is certainly taking a kitchen sink approach when it comes to alternative fiction.
Kyuujitsu no Warumono-san – 04
I've come to believe that Kyuujitsu no Warumono-san has something special about it.
Sewayaki Kitsune no Senko-san (The Helpful Fox Senko-san)

Yuzuki-san Chi no Yonkyoudai. – 09
Of all the shows being unjustly ignored this season, Yuzuki-san Chi no Yonkyoudai. is probably the one where it pisses me off the most.
Yuzuki-san Chi no Yonkyoudai. – 10
As different as chalk and cheese, these two, and that's just the way Mikoto likes it.
Yuzuki-san Chi no Yonkyoudai. – 06
