My Deer Friend Nokotan
In a world where there were no big-name anime coming out this season and people apparently couldn’t figure out what to do with themselves, one deer-based comedy show gained unusual levels of popularity for about three weeks and then was rarely spoken about again. People were talking about it, friends who aren’t that into anime… Read more

Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feeling in Russian
Ah, one of the oh so many romcoms this season. I swear there are normally like one or two that show up every other season but for whatever reason they really piled them on this summer. There has to be at least five. I’m sure of it. I’m definitely going to get a full count… Read more

Teppen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Watched: Sub Covers: Episodes 1-3 This is an anime that Christian reviewed a decent bit ago that I’m finally getting around to watching. Basically it’s about comedy groups doing their routines which are usually just things that actually happened to them. This seemed like an interesting premise, and Christian has steered me in the direction… Read more

The Owl House
“In a world where you can be anything, we should all strive to be a little more unique, Luz Noceda from The Owl House taught me that” would be an insane thing to say, however I do feel that no show has captured that feeling quite like The Owl House has in the last couple… Read more

Wistoria: Wand and Sword
In a world where every character has a hair color that perfectly matches the element of magic that they use, one boy will have somewhat confusingly colored hair to indicate that he can’t use magic. Instead, he wields a sword. I just noticed this hair coordination thing while watching the very last episode so I… Read more

Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines
You know, there is a raging debate going on these days about when a title screen appears in a show. The majority opinion is that the title should show up first. Usually right after the opening, sometimes after the fifteen minute, highly detailed, basically repeating the last episode in full recap that follows the opening.… Read more

My Wife Has No Emotion
Watched: Sub Covers: Episode 1 Let’s just start off with saying I only watched the first episode. It was just too cringe, the main character feels super awkward yet apparently he’s had a girlfriend before. And now he’s trying to fuck his Roomba. Unlike in Chobits, the robot here is pretty basic in personality and… Read more

ATRI -My Dear Moments-
Watched: Sub Covers: Season 1 This is the rare visual novel adaptation, something I only learned because aniplex.exe is credited. Now I’ve already forgotten a lot about the main character’s backstory and barely remembered his name is Natsuki, so that’s not a promising sign given this anime finished just a day before I’m writing this… Read more

Love is Indivisible by Twins
Watched: Sub Covers: Episodes 1-3 Two childhood friends? They both have to lose out in the end, right? I’ll never know though, because I didn’t like this anime. It wasn’t so bad as to say it’s not worth your time at all, I’m sure for many the amount of nerdiness in this show (a lot… Read more

Senpai is an Otokonoko
Watched: Sub Covers: Episode 1 First off, like me you probably have no idea what an otokonoko is. Apparently it’s a term for guys with feminine features, often depicted as crossdressing in media. Our protagonist doesn’t seem to identify as a girl, just dresses as one. A girl confesses to him, and despite learning he’s… Read more
