Is this going to be an actual show at some point? They seem to be doing a ton of laying things out and setting things up, and I think it’d be a fun show.

From your list, I really enjoyed I’m in Love with the Villainess, Sacrificial Princess, Magical Revolution, and Buddy Daddies. Zom100, Overtake, and Yuri is My Job were on the decent tier. I didn’t watch Pluto or Ooku, so can’t comment on those. However, Helk was really the one show that I tried so hard to like, but it just couldn’t fully get there. I really enjoyed the beginning few episodes, and even the whole flashback arc that a lot of people despised. But after the flashbacks were over, it seemed like they lost their way and tried to do too much and be too many different things. The whole reason the bad guys did everything didn’t make any sense (who is farming or making food or providing services in this kingdom?) but I did appreciate the underlying positive message. Maybe now that they’ve set everything else up, a S2 would be more consistent. I’ll still give it a chance if they make more.

For me, my favorite 10 shows this year are probably (in no particular order)

Heavenly Delusion

Tomo Chan is a Girl

Ruroni Kenshin

Apothecary Diary

The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses

Dark Gathering

100 girlfriends Who Really Love You

Undead Girl Murder Farce

Sacrificial Princess

Hell’s Paradise

Frieren is still running, otherwise it’d be on here too. Undead Unluck was a serious contender too. That show is a lot of fun.

Picked up right where S1 ended and hit the ground running. It took me a bit to remember who was who, but glad this one is bad.

I have no idea how Frieren and Apothecary Diaries have fallen. They’re so good! Ragna Crimson is ok, but not better than either of those two. JJK chugging along I can see, but I always feel guilty watching it because of all the drama with the attempted NDAs and conditions for the animators.

Finally a story focused episode. Seems like most of this season has been filler or side story stuff. Also, having this arc be Yor focused is great, as she has felt a lot like an afterthought for a while

I switched to this a few days ago, and it was working great till last night. Now youtube just comes up to the Ad Blocker Detected message and nothing plays. Edit Nevermind. I just discovered that Firefox had also installed AdBlock for some reason without my knowledge. I removed AdBlock and it works again.

This was a really nice episode. Lady Black really redeemed herself after the terrible showing last time. She really puts the Tsun in Tsundere for sure, but underneath she’s got a big and strong heart. I guess you would need to for healing powers. Also the calligraphy part was very neat, and I liked how she had to earn the “Ah ha!” moment.
