      <image:caption>Alyssa the witch finds an abandoned human baby in the woods, and decides to raise her as her own. We follow their daily lives years later, where the now teenage Viola does her best to protect her mom from doing dangerous things like dating or not being with Viola. Moderately funny vingette-based comedy show with absurd elements. A good laugh at times if it’s your cup of tea. A solid maybe.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - My New Boss Is Goofy</image:title>
      <image:caption>100% the cutest show this season. After a long time working under an abusive boss, Momose has now started working at a new advertising agency, and placed under the watch of his new boss, Shirosaki-san. While super capable in his own right, it turns out that his new boss is just a total dork, and unconsciously does things that are super cute all the time. Prepare to “Squee~” and “Kyun~” throughout every episode while you watch this. Highly Recommend for healing your soul.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A very grounded view into Formula 4, a racing tier where both companies and wealthy individuals alike can race as long as you have the equipment and a regular driving license. We follow a photographer, Kouya Madoka, who discovers this world while on a shoot for a Super GT event, where he stumbles upon the small team at Komaki Motors and their young driver who is trying his best to win. After seeing him and the team’s passion, he decides to try to support them in any way he can. There’s a lot of underlying trauma in these characters as well, and I’m looking forward to see more of what this original story with largely good visuals and audio will tell. Can recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Even more games and VR! This has a more than slightly darker tone than the previous two though; we follow one of the top guilds in the game world, The Akabane Family. They make a point of not prying into each others real lives, but while being a cheerful family in the digital realm, signs are pointing towards them being a broken mess in the real world, with much more in common than they realize. A solid maybe? Will need to watch more to know exactly how much I'd want to recommend this.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Umika has crippling anxciety and can barely talk to other humans around her. In her head, she instead dreams of the day she gets to meet an alien from outer space instead, because surely they would understand her where her fellow humans do not! After wishing upon a star, the next day at her highschool entrance ceremony she ends up in class with a self-proclaimed bonafide alien who can use telepathy when pressing her forhead against others (cue several doki-doki moments and lots of blushing and smiles). this alien can’t recall why she’s there though, and Umika promises to help her get back into space, any way she can. A very cute slice-of-life yuri show with great visuals. Highly recommend if this is your cup of tea.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The harem comedy anime. Imagine all the tropes, but the characters all have their settings at 11. After the god of love “mistakenly” makes it so Rentarou not only gets the already lucky One Soulmate in life, but One Hundred Soulmates, the soon-to-be highschooler who has already been rejected 100 times prior will now have his pick among partners. There’s just one catch: if your soulmate rejects you, you die from heartbreak, so now he has to figure out a way to prevent that from happening (after all, he really does/will love all of them). Spoilers: The solution doesn’t involve decieving them. If you’re into this type of show, this will likely be one of the BEST shows of the year.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - The Kingdoms of Ruin</image:title>
      <image:caption>“Hey, how do we show that the evil people are evil?” “Let’s have them violently multilate a main character with plenty of blood and gore, and also have an audience point and laugh at this happening, cheering on louder and louder the more pain they inflict on the victim.” “Oh, so just slapping on some cheap writing then?” “Yep, cheap writing.” … For the first 33% or so of the first episode, this had POTENTIAL. Possible cool adventure with “the last witch alive” on the run with her human apprentice, fleeing the scientifically advanced humans trying to exterminate witches out of fear? Amazing premise! But then it just devolves into an ever escalating contest of who can shed the most blood and revenge the other side harderer and angrierer. Then there’s a time skip, some of the tech used isn’t good and safe actually (no way!), more deaths etc… More like Kingdoms of Boring. Skipping.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>*exhales in frustration* Protag-chan is the only daughter of a yakuza boss, and so gets a “guard dog” to protect her at all times. On a surface level, this seems to be a run-of-the-mill cute shoujo series where a girl gets feelings for a protective guy in her life, but then this feels like maybe grooming? And the clearly 20- or 30-something guy tries to pose as a high schooler “to protect her from the boys” during day time when she starts high school. I don’t know where they’ll take this relationship, but I’m also not curious to find out. Skipping.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - The Apothecary Diaries</image:title>
      <image:caption>The first of several standout shows this season. Funny. Engaging. Heartwarming. Exciting. Beautiful. This has it all. A fictional historical anime set in ancient Chine, mainly within the walls of the emperor’s palace. We follow Maomao - the young daughter of an apothecary, with a deep interest and extensive knowledge in the field herself. While on an errand in the city, she gets kidnapped and unceremoniously sold off as a helper in the rear palace where only women and eunucks are allowed. Maomao very quickly accepts the situation for what it is, and plans to not draw any attention to herself so she can serve out her two years and return home afterwards. But with a “curse” afflicting the Emperor’s courtesans, Maomao’s conscience doesn’t allow her to just sit back and do nothing… Animation, music, EVERYTHING is on top in this, with characters as engaging as the are endearing. A Must Watch.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Tired of her day job as a sub-illustrator at a games company only trying to churn out middling ero games, and dreaming of a life where she can make art for a truly magnificent bishoujo game instead, Konoha stumbles upon a treasure trove of old classics in the genre in a mysterious second-hand game shop which vanishes overnight, just as quickly as is appeared. When later opening up one of these classics, she is transported back to 1992, and is taken pity by a small games company trying to make bishoujo games in this era. But how did she get there? And how will her 2023 skills translate to a time before styluses and polished visual interfaces? A MUST SEE if you’re in gamedev (like myself and a lot those attending the marathons are), but otherwise still seems like a good time for anyone stepping back in through time alongside our heroine.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - Undead Unluck</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Shounen Jump series of the season. Bombastic visuals, a decent amount of plot-relevant ecchi, and an increasing amount of characters with special abilities in the form of “Negators”. We follow Fuuko, who brings misfortune and Bad Luck to whoever touches her, and Andy, a seemingly immortal person who wants to use Fuuko’s ability to finally end his own life once and for all. There’s a lot of death and blood and comedy in this, and most likely you’ll find a very good time while watching it. Highly Recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - Under Ninja</image:title>
      <image:caption>The wierdest show of the season. “Throw a stone, and you’ll hit a ninja. But you won’t know which one.” In this alternate world, ninja are still very much prevalent and relevant for the governments and secret societies of the world, still hidden from the public’s prying eyes. We follow Kuro, whose clan has seemingly fallen from grace as he undertakes Genin missions to get by. In his free time, he leeches off of the fridge beer from his neighbour in the apartment next door, and lives a generally slobby lifestyle. There’s some russian guy looking for ninja to kill/fight, a set of gyaru ninja that fight dirty for some evil organization, a seemingly homeless guy that keeps offering his breast milk to children nearby, and a ninja hoodie that only makes your upper body invisible. Did I mention this show is weird? Can recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - The Vexations of a Shut-In Vampire Princess</image:title>
      <image:caption>Terakomari Gandesblood is vampire princess born into one of the most powerful vampire families of this world, and “a beauty that occurs once every 100 million years”. but she hates the taste of blood and can’t use magic. Or can she? Per the orders of her Empress, she is given command of a company of soldiers and tasked to use them to win 100 battles, so she can become eligable to succeed the throne in the future. A new maid - Vill - is hired to protect Komari from harm, but Vill has an unhealthy devotion to her new master (cue ecchi for laughs). Then also something something magical world where beings don’t die thanks to McGuffins, but dark powers are attempting to destroy the McGuffins something something. Too good and sometimes funny to be called trash, but not good enough to be called ‘good’. Good trash? Can recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - Our Dating Story: The Experienced You and The Inexperienced Me</image:title>
      <image:caption>Not your typical highschool romcom anime, but it also kind of is? The nerdy Ryuuto-kun wants a girlfriend and wants to approach Runa, the super popular girl in class, to ask her out. He’s convinced the “nasty rumours” about her cannot be true, so he’s taken aback a bit when she responds to his request to date her with inviting him to her bedroom to do the deed. Essentially ignoring every ounce of hormones in himself, he firmly says no and tells her that he wants to get to know her first, and asks if they could instead take things a step at a time. A bit confused, she agrees, and after discussing how to go about this, responds with “This is kind of exciting. I’ve never felt this before!”, and the two begin a relationship in earnest. The premise will be very sketch at times, but from what I’ve seen it seems like this will be an otherwise mostly regular highschool romance show, with a sprinkle of dealing with people trying to get between the “socially mismatched” new couple. A cautious recommendation.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - I Shall Survive Using Potions!</image:title>
      <image:caption>As a result of a mistake from Earth’s god, our protag-chan is mistakenly summoned for reincarnation, and as an apology for this misshap is given a few extra favours before her proper summoning begins. After getting time to say goodbye to friends and family (who are all just very accepting of the situation “eh, knowing you, you’ll be all right.”), she proceeds to haggle her own special abilities from her new world’s god, able to magically create any potion of her liking, into whatever container she wishes (along with some other bonus powers). Potion-isekai is a fun and cute isekai that doesn’t seemingly do much new for the genre, but subverts some of usual tropes for laughs. You’ll likely have a good laugh with it, if you’re not already sick of the Isekai genre as a whole. Can recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - Frieren: Beyond Journey's End</image:title>
      <image:caption>Potential Anime Of The Year candidate. The Hero’s Party has already slain the Demon Lord, and are back in the capital to celebrate the end of their epic ten-year journey. “But it was just a mere ten-year quest?” questions the elven mage. Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End is about the story after the usual fantasy heroics, about traveling the world to rediscover memories, traces of ages past, and to search for minor miscellaneous spells with often mundane effects. It’s also a tale with time itself front-and-center, how differently it can be perceived when you have an extended amount of it, and attempts to convey how important it is to embrace the many moments that often are at the risk to just slip by if you let them. This series has amazing imagery, impactful music, and a grand sense of adventurous serenity that is rarely present in TV-produced animation works. It is simply a treat to watch, and the very definition of a Must See.</image:caption>

Next thing she knows, she wakes up eight years earlier next to her diary detailing the events that led up to her eventual demise. Determined to change her planned date with Guillotine-kun, she begins to slowly make changes to her behaviour in hope to not only save herself, but also the stability of the empire in the process. A decently trash show with some darker-than-usual elements sprinkled into what’s normally a very lighthearted genre overall. Can recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a world where VR gaming is commonplace, “Kuso-game hunter” Sunraku has just obliterated another buggy mess of a game, and while looking for what to play next gets the recommendation to pick up “Shangri-La Frontier”, the 30-million-player strong “God-tier Game” that is all the rage, just for a change of pace. Sporting some incredible visuals and animations, in a regular season would easily be in the top 3 shows, but with the fierce competition this falls to maybe top 5 for many instead, and that’s before you count in continuing series. An easy recommendation for anyone still itching for some of that shounen game I-can’t-believe-it’s-not-isekai goodness.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Former adventurer “The Red Ogre” finds an orphaned girl and takes her into his home. Years later, the same girl has now risen through the ranks at the Adventurers Guild, and cannot wait to get back home to see her dear dad after a few years of not being able to return. She does however quickly find that being one of the strongest adventurers around, luxuries like “vacation days” don’t come easy, and as soon as she’s prepared to leave, another situation arises that needs her help. She really really really wants to see her dad again, but also people are dying. Meanwhile, Dad is in the quiet village just taking care of things. Moderately cute and funny; an easy recommend if you have time for it. Seriously wondering if she will make it back home or not this season…</image:caption>

A decent watch, best enjoyed in moderate amounts, just like the main character who only plays for a few hours a day after his regular salaryman job.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - SHY</image:title>
      <image:caption>A different take on the kinds of super heroes you normally only find in western stories. In this alternate universe, there are no wars thanks to heroes keeping people safe across the world. “Shy” only recently became one of these heroes, and is now struggling with not only crippling anxiety, but also with trying to come to terms with not being able to save everyone despite the powers she has. But just as she can come to grip with these feelings, a new evil has started to emerge in the hearts of humans over the world, and a mysterious group is trying to bring this evil to the surface in order to set the world into a state of true chaos. I freaking LOVE the visuals in this - there are a lot of interesting editing choices they make throughout the episodes so far that remind you of comic book panels, and a clean visual production style that sets it apart in a good way. Wether or not the story will turn out to really hook me is yet to be determined, but for now this is definitely on my watch list to see where things go!</image:caption>

With only a few years of preparation now regained, can he help set history on a new course with the knowledge he has for this second try? A decent trash show in any normal season, but likely going to struggle to find time for this with all the other shows I’d rather watch.</image:caption>

After a run-in with a thief, he manages to kill him, unlocking the use of Gluttony which steals the skills from those he kills to use for himself. Throw in a talking sword named “Greed” who also hungers for blood, a sprinkle of overly evil “holy knights” and the one girl among them that is actually good and definitely the love interest of protag-kun, and you got yourself a series. I’ll be skipping this one though.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A very grounded hard scifi mecha show, where mechs are basically big utility robots that happen to be useful for “extermination of pests”, where the pests are a couple of meters tall. Definitiely one for the mecha nerds out there, but I wouldn’t expect space flight and giant laser swords in this one. Can recommend.</image:caption>

Through magic, he sends the knights home thinking they found evidence of her getting eaten by wild animals. After bringing her home and healing her wounds, he starts learning just how innocent and virtuous this woman in, and can’t stop himself of wanting to teach her all the naughty things in the world; like indulging yourself in tasty foods, spending a day shopping without remorse, and more. Seemingly incredibly wholesome overall, and very cute. Can recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fantasy scifi trash. The Demon Lord is timeskipping to 1000 years in the future, a world that has all but lost knowledge of magic, and where humanity now fights against extinction from the powerful beasts that attack them. However, having been sealed for a millennia, his body has reverted to that of a child. He’s found by a high school girl who mistakes him for a lone survivor in a sealed off ruin. On their way out, she is attacked and killed, but with the Demon Lord takes pity on her and resurrects her, for a price. The girl and her teammate then takes him back to humanity’s last remaining fortress, where they attend Excalibur Academy; a place to hone their Holy Sword skills - unique magical powers which are used in the fight against the monsters. Mix in some ecchi scenes, some past trauma, some power struggles, etc etc, the usual trash stuff, and you have yourself a show. Skipping.</image:caption>

While he does try to take care of her as someone a few years older, everyone around him only sees him as leeching of the success of her. But when disaster strikes, and a premonition warns of her impending doom, his desperate feelings to protect her traverses through time, giving him unimaginable powers - but at what cost? Very edgy trash, but there might be a nugget of something in here? Will likely skip. Too much other good stuff this season.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - Firefighter Daigo: Rescuer in Orange</image:title>
      <image:caption>I keep saying “no spin-offs or sequels” at the start of these, but this one this broke through. However, the connection to the related parent story seems more like flavourful character backstory than having any real significance on the overall plot. We start following a group of young firefighters in the midst of their training to become special rescuers in the Tokyo Fire Department - training they’ll need as wide-scale disaster is seemingly about to spread in their near future. Very grounded series that will likely be a good watch for those of you looking for more realistic shows, which good animation and overall production to boot. Can recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Fall 2023 - Heat the Pig Liver: The Story of a Man Turned Into a Pig</image:title>
      <image:caption>Viewers discretion is adviced. This show is very much what is commonly referred to in the anime community as “Degenerate.” Man reincarnates into a literal pig, and is found by a slave girl who can seemingly understand and hear what he’s thinking. This girl, Jess, is seemingly of a [race? class? species? The series hasn’t detailed it yet] of humans called Yethma, and to not get into too many spoilers, they’re not treated well. Jess is however very accommodating to protag-kuns inner thoughts (he is a pig in more ways than just his new-found body), and the two decide to try to help eachother; Jess with helping protag-kun transform back into a human, and protag-kun with accompanying her to the Capital where she is headed. This is the trashiest of trash of the season with better visuals than you’d think, and I cannot give this a blanket recommendation.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The best visuals of the season, bar none. Gore-y but with pastel-coloured blood and smooth animations. Akira Tendou is three years into working at an exploitative company as the zombie apocalypse hits, and he couldn’t be happier; He’s finally FREE! With a newfound passion for life, he writes down all the things he wants to do in life, and sets out to complete his bucketlist in this postapocalyptic world.

      <image:caption>The Demon Lord and the Hero killed eachother in a climactic battle not long ago. Now, Blade is transferring into a school that is meant to teach heroes, but he’s just there to try to get to be normal for once and make a ton of friends. It’s heavily implied that he is the Hero, and the King of the land takes over as headmaster of the school while he’s there for some reason. As he’s goofing around, he also helps those he encounter to deal with their individual troubles, seemingly. It seems like fun enough trash, although ecchi. Not really sure what the goal of the series is yet though.</image:caption>

But the top candidate to win is… human?? And also turns out to be the Hero’s brother???? But he, Helck, also seems to hate other humans, and has been banished from the human realm for reasons. Anyway, he’s still human, so the tournament administration is doing everything they can to stop him from winning, like making a round into stacking a 10-story house of cards instead of the one-on-one battles they had planned for, and giving Helck really glossy cards. It’s all really silly and fun. Definitely recommend giving it a go!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Definitely not inspired by Harry Potter. Fantasy show where a new year of students is joining, and we follow six of them. Oliver, who quickly is revealed has been sent to the school for reasons unknown to us, with massive protag-kun energy. Katie, lover of all fauna and the timid booksmart girl. Guy, expert in all things flora, and the goofy jock. Pete, born in a non-magical family, and book nerd who doesn’t know how to socialize. Michela, born into one of the great magical families and daughter of one of the teachers in the school. And Nanao, a strong former samurai who has seemingly been brought into the school by Michela’s father right as she was about to get killed amidst a bloody war. “20% of the students enrolling here are consumed by the magic” it’s stated early on, so the six will likely end up helping each other through deadly encounters in the years to come.

      <image:caption>I wish I was kidding, but this is actually one of the best shows this season. Really. A vending machine otaku gets reincarnated into a vending machine, and runs on energy points that is converted from coins being used to buy stuff from his inventory; an inventory that he can change up by spending points. After being found by the super-strong Lammis, he finds his way into a nearby village and is quickly the talk of the town, and helps to provide food and drink to the ones that need it. Can’t emphasize enough that this is actually great. Go watch it.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Trash Isekai. Protag-kun reincarnates after not getting out of bed for too long, and is reborn into a royal family with OP magic powers. Unfortunately, their magic reader only shows two digits, so his 1002 power level shows up as 02, and he is promptly abandoned to die in the woods instead. But he’s still OP, so with his power of Barrier aka his MacGuffin, defeats the Flame Fenrir that tries to attack him, and is picked up by his uncle to live with his family instead. Flash foward a few years, and he’s just trying to live as lazily as possible. It’s an okay Isekai, but very trashy. I’ll probably keep watching, but most will probably pass on it.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Very Ecchi. Protag-kun’s dad was a total creep, so much so that hearing his last name now quickly sours any potential relation with women, and he has vowed to live alone for the rest of his life to not follow in his father’s footsteps. But a chance encounter with a really cute girl re-awakens his inner creep (I don’t know, that’s basically the gist) and in order to suppress his desires decides to live as a monk at a temple. The trouble is, the monastery his uncle recommended him has now become a nunnery, where the really cute girl lives! Ecchi and “hilarity” ensues. Just nah.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>An office worker once picked up a cat that is now human-sized and doing all of her cleaning and cooking while she’s away at work. Part of me loves this. It’s fun, has great characters, and they’re really playing into the whole “this is absurd and everyone knows it” angle. Part of me hates this. It’s a GoHands production (and sadly not the only one this season) and they apparently have a mission to produce as nausea-inducing camera pans as possible, even in a silly slice-of-life show as this that definitely doesn’t need it. If you can tolerate the extreme angles, then the characters will more than make up for it. Recommended.</image:caption>

Life is about to change though, as she forgets her glasses one day, making her essentially blinds, and leans on Komura to help her keeping up in class. If it wasn’t for the atrocious extreme angles that make people nasueous, this might’ve been almost normal romcom trash, but even beyond that the characters are extremely one-note.

      <image:caption>More Isekai! This time another villainess anime, as the subgenre is seemingly settling into being a genre of its own. Girl gets reincarnated into the young version of the villainess of an otome game that she played, some 10 years before she is supposed to die in the game’s story. Appaled by her character’s actions, she vows to not follow that path to the best of her abilities, and quickly finds out that it is indeed possible to depart from the set story she was familiar with. To the relief of the ones around her, she quickly changes her act to be more graceful and helpful. I didn’t think I would want to watch another villainess show, but this one has me interested.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The last Isekai of the marathon! Normal office worker gets shot by accident, and is reincarnated into a fantasy world with an empty slate. He chooses Healer as his job class, which is quickly revealed to be a good choice as they’re in high demand; so much so that plenty of healers become greedy and ‘corrupt’, and choose to only heal certain races in this world. He vouches to never become like that, and uses his business know-how to get aquainted with the local guilds and securing both experience, lodging, and something to do. While the first episode isn’t that much to write home about, the following episodes show more of his grit and the gritty side of the world. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still very much a trash isekai, but it’s decent for what it is.</image:caption>

After a great battle 10 years ago, the Demon Lord has reincarnated but is stuck at a measly level and needs more time to recover. But before they can safely gather their strength, they must go make sure that the Hero that bested them won’t come and ruin everything before the powers have returned! Turns out that the Hero is a washed-up shut-in nobody these days, so the Demon Lord decides to move in and help him get back on his feet again. Very silly. Will probably watch more of this. Warning for some, uh, choice angles of the lewd kind, especially early on in the episode.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Keitaro hates the supernatural, but spirits are attracted to him. Yayoi has two pupils in each eye; one is normal, but the other lets her see supernatural beings. She hunts them, and the spirits are scared shitless of her. Yayoi became orphaned a year and some ago, and while her dad passed on, her mom’s soul got taken by an evil spirit, so now she searches for that spirit to make sure her mother can rest in piece. As is surely pure happenstance, Keitaro’s childhood friend Eiko recommended him for a job as a tutor, and it just so happens that he ends up being the tutor of Yayoi, who is also apparently Eiko’s cousin and lives with her. “Fun” adventures ensue. Actually dark and horror-y at times, viewers beware. Recommended.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Summer 2023 - Sweet Reincarnation</image:title>
      <image:caption>Another Isekai! This time, a patessier is crushed under the weight of his work, and as he’s bleeding out his sole regret is to not be able to fulfill his dream of making a land of sweets. So he’s reincarnated as Pastry Mille Morteln, the young son of the duke of Casserole, and just by the names alone you might be able to tell the kind of show this is. Except it is a bit more serious in tone than it first appears, and it has a lot of parallels to last year’s Parallel World Pharmacy, in that he is brought up to inherit the title of duke and lead the fiefdome to prosperity. But that’s getting ahead of things; the show seems like a decent watch, and I’ll certainly keep up with it.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Summer 2023 - Saint Cecilia and Pastor Lawrence</image:title>
      <image:caption>By far the most wholesome and healing show of the season. Slice-of-life where Lawrence the pastor and Cecilia the Saint live a quiet life on the outskirts of a small town. They perform their daily duties admicably, but as soon as they are alone, the Saint lets all inhibitions go and lazes around the church any chance she gets. Lawrence wonders why she only shows him that side, but of course she likes him and Lawrence is too slow to understand what basically everyone around them knows. Super cute. Recommended.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Summer 2023 - Liar Liar</image:title>
      <image:caption>Something right in the middle between Video Game High School and Kakegurui, but without the esports and the body horror. Protag-kun has transferred into a school on Academy Island, where students are ranked one to seven stars, and play games with eachother to steal stars from those with more than them. But protag-kun hasn’t been informed of any of this, and through pure happenstance manages to not only bump into the top player on the island, but also beat her in a game and recieve the special star she’s secretly had. But to not disturb the balance of the island, as the now one-star he is with a special red star that allows him to tell any one Lie he wishes, the Headmistress orders him to conceal his rank and pretend to be the new top rank. He begrudgingly agrees, but only because he’s come to the island to find someone, and don’t want to get expelled before he finds them. Seems fun enough. Will keep watching.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A story about a half-human half-oni that teams up with the severed head of an Immortal and her loyal servant, as they travel to find the old man who took her body and made him what he is today. Decent writing, lots of dialogue, and some good action. Some parts reminded me of the snappy-ness of the Bakemonogatari series, but it remains to be seen what the show proper actually provides. A promising but cautious recommendation.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Summer 2023 - My Unique Skill Makes Me OP Even at Level 1</image:title>
      <image:caption>Silly Isekai, where protag-kun starts off with very low skills and is stuck at level one, but has S-ranked drop rates on whatever monster he defeats. Same studio (and seemingly character designer) as By the Grace of the Gods, and it overall seems similarly wholesome as well, except for the part where a girl in a bunny-girl outfit and actual bunny ears shows up. There’s nothing to write home about the animation, but overall seems like a decent watch, and we’ll likely keep watching.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Anime based on the game of the same name. There are two big reasons this entry in the game series got an anime: Her thighs. (Seriously though, they are visible probably 25% of the 40-minute first episode, and zoomed in on plenty of times…) It’s JRPG origin seeps through a lot in everything from character designs and writing, to area designs and background music. Could maybe be fun, but there are a lot of better shows this season. We’re skipping this one.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Miyo was born into a prominent family, but after her mother passed away, her father remarried and had a second child which got all the attention, so Miyo has lived most of her life essentially as a live-in servant. But that all is about to change, as her father has married her off to Kiyoka Kudo who, although rumoured to be cold and ruthless, turns out to be a very sweet and compassionate man. This first episode is very heavy, but it seems the following ones might not be? Also there is magic in this world, but it’s not brought up in the first episode. Recommended.</image:caption>

A boy who wants to become a “Drifter” (mecha pilot) finds a seemingly busted Magus (a humanoid AI robot) who later awakes and helps him control his Coffin (the mecha).

Turns out he has powers of water (basically a water bender) that are amplified by the earth’s ley lines, and is brought back to his home island to use these skills to fight monsters. It seems pretty meh. Some overly styled character designs typical of redjuice (who also did character designs for Beatless and Guilty Crown) that clashes against the otherwise mundane setting they’re in. Original story, so time will tell how the show proper pans out. It’s a skip for now though.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Stalker boy decides one day that he should stop stalking his target, Natsukawa, because it’s just dumb. The people around them are shocked in disbelief, and wondering what’s wrong with him. Meanwhile, the girl “has to deal with” not being constantly bothered by him and it’s presented as something sad for her, and it’s heavily implied that maybe now she starts to have feelings for him. And yet, this seems watchable? If you somehow haven’t had enough of high school romcoms, this is another one!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Summer 2023 - My Tiny Senpai</image:title>
      <image:caption>Not much substance in this one. It’s another one of those “started as a short form web comic”-type shows much like My Senpai is Annoying and Uzaki-chan, but the only “gimmick” in this one is that the main girl interest is simply very short and makes cat noises all the time. That’s about it. Trash. Can safely skip.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - Hell’s Paradise</image:title>
      <image:caption>The high-octane brutal shounen show this season. Brutal action, lots of gore. Big cast, but we’re focused on “Gabimaru the Hollow” and his to-be executioner as they, alongside other criminal+executioner teams, travel to the island known as “Paradise” to retrieve the Elixir of Life. Whoever gets it back to the mainland first recieves a full pardon from the Shogunate. Good potential.</image:caption>

Now they must increase her following to increase her powers. Insane in a not-good way. Can easily be skipped.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Nishimura is being bullied in class, being called nicknames like “The Grim Reaper”, and with all the other kids behaving like anything she touches is cursed. That is, all the other kids except the new transfer student Takada, who thinks that being the Grim Reaper is just the coolest thing ever, and quickly stumbles head-first into being Nishimura’s friend. It’s sort of hard to watch which just how accepted the bullying is at first, but the sweetness of the oblivious doofus that Takada is quickly dispels any unease. Highly recommend.</image:caption>

It is now 2011, and “Otaku Hero” along with his three magical girls and revolution army of all kinds of otaku are fighting back to be able to once again enjoy the things they all love in peace.

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - The Legendary Hero is Dead</image:title>
      <image:caption>Not an isekai, but equally a lewd-ish fantasy adventure setting like the previous one. Here Protag-kun is just a creep though, but his soul ends up in the rotting corpse of the Hero, and now he’s tasked with saving the world in his stead. It’s very dumb, but if dumb fun with a side of fan service is what you’re after, then look no further. A decent OP though.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Post-apocalyptic sci-fi with visuals usually only found in feature-length animations - it is a real treat to watch. We get to see the perspectives of both a group of kids kept safe in some sort of facility, and of two young adults roaming the overgrown mostly abandoned cities of Japan in search of a place called “Heaven”. However, other people as well as deformed monsters also roam the landscape, so the journey is dangerous. I’m on the edge of my seat each episode. Probably my favourite new show this season.</image:caption>

What he didn’t know is that the boyfriend has ties to the Yakuza, and his disappearance sets off a series of events of trying to get away with murder. Brutal and dark. Recommended.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - The Aristocrat’s Otherworldly Adventure: Serving Gods Who Go Too Far</image:title>
      <image:caption>Harem isekai, but more on the silly side. Boy gets reincarnated as a noble’s third son, but as an apology (or a prank?) for why he died recieves super OP stats from all seven deities in this new world. It’s a typical “everyone and everything is fawning over protag-kun” series, but it’s all very self-aware. Recommended, but really only if you haven’t tired of the genre yet.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Elda is a 600-year-old immortal elf, being enshrined in the Takamimi Shrine and served by a new shrine maiden, Koito, a 16-year-old girl who is the latest in her family to take on the role. Elda however is not some graceful mysterious being — all she does is lounge around, eat chips, down energy drinks, and play video games. Super wholesome and moderately funny. Go give it a try.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Love Hina, but not as good. Protag-kun is an asshole. Animation is stiff at best. There’s a grain of potential, maybe, but yeah no. We’re skipping this one.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Protag-chan wants to be the star on the big stage plays. That’s it, that’s the show. Drama and friendships ensues. She also has either a ghost friend or a schizofrenic side to her. It’s weird. Pass.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Kyoutaro sees himself as very edgy and “wants to kill his classmates”, but maybe his heart beats faster every time he looks at the class beauty for other reasons… It starts of very edgy, but it quickly becomes a familiar rom com sort of thing. But a good one, so definitely recommended.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - My One-Hit Kill Sister</image:title>
      <image:caption>The first episode has no right to be as well-animated as it is. Protag-kun is isekai’d, and loves it. Has read all the light novels about it and it fully ready to embark on an adventure. However, on his first quest, he stumbled upon a giant dragon that is way too overleveled for him, and in an act of desperation he summones his older sister to protect him. This is just silly, with a side of bro-con perverted older sister that will put most people off from continuing this. But if you can look past that, then it seems like silly fun.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - Summoned to Another World for a Second Time</image:title>
      <image:caption>Another isekai. This time our protagonist has already been to the other world and thought he had saved it when he was accidentally sent back to our world the first time around, but going back (this time with his entire class from school) he learns that’s far from the truth. This is very middle-of-the-road at the moment. We’ll be giving it a shot, but our expectations aren’t exactly high.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - Rokudo’s Bad Girls</image:title>
      <image:caption>Rokudo is constantly bullied by the delinquents at his school. But after recieving a mysterious scroll from his late grandfather, he is marked, and seemingly every “bad girl” around him is now charmed by him, including the strongest delinquent of them all — Ranna Himawari. “WTF” is the general consensus about this series. The only reason I’d keep watching would be just in pure disbelief over the show existing.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - Insomniacs After School</image:title>
      <image:caption>Classmates Nakami and Magari discovers that they’re both suffering from bad cases of insomnia, and form an unlikely bond around their shared situation. I’m really worried that we’ll be bawling our eyes out at the end of this series, but I’m 100% on board all the way there. Highly recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Main-kun is a moderately successful mangaka who is also running a small apartment complex and taking care of this two young siblings after their parents passed away. Before a big delivery, an assistant is sent to him to help him out, but we quickly learn that there is much more to her than she lets on. Very quirky and weird in some regards, but the overall feel is very much that of a cute and normal rom-com — just with some fantasy elements to it. Recommended.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Guy basically stumbles into a Narnia-like door to another world, in which he finds and becomes the owner of an abandoned house filled with a bunch of OP skills and weapons. After using the skill points he gets there, his body transforms from his bullied fat body into essentially the hottest guy on Earth? And now everyone is fawning over him. Beyond that first arc in the premise, we have no clue what it’s about though. Will likely skip?</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Boy loved to play music, but after his father — a successful violinist — got involved in a cheating scandal he doesn’t want anything to do with it. But of course he’s being dragged back in by others. Not great animations. Not sure where the story will go. Pass.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - The Reason Why Raeliana Ended up at the Duke’s Mansion</image:title>
      <image:caption>Not your typical otome-game isekai. Maybe because this time the world is based on a novel with murder and intreague, and Protag-chan is embodying a character who is supposed to get killed off early on in the story. Using her knowledge of the world, she manages to get an in with the Duke to hopefully at least delay her destiny, but at what cost? Has potential. Recommended.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - Dead Mount Death Play</image:title>
      <image:caption>Retelling the first episode won’t do you any favours, but just go watch it. A reverse isekai which involves a lot of death and a surprising amount of sillyness. It’s low-key good, and I’m hoping for it to keep it up.</image:caption>
    </image:image>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - Mashle: Magic and Muscles</image:title>
      <image:caption>Think One Punch Man in Harry Potter, and you get the gist. Mashle is born without magical powers, but has been trained his whole life by his adoptive father, and has somehow achieved supernatural strength. He’s not quite good with reading a room though. 10/10 cream puffs.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime roundup — Spring 2023 - Skip and Loafer</image:title>
      <image:caption>Cute slice-of-life following Mitsumi, who is starting high school in Tokyo, far away from her small little home town. She has her life all planned out, but life has a way to interfere with those, and after getting lost on her way to school her very first day, she is rescued by the aloof Sousuke. Really cute. Highly recommend.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A reimagining based on the same source material as the older Trigun anime; not a remake or a sequel. Studio Orange yet again showcase how great they are at 3D animation.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anime Blog - Anime Roundup - Winter 2023 - The Fire Hunter</image:title>
      <image:caption>Humanity has been cursed to spontaneously erupt in flames if they so much as look at natural fire, and a girl must journey to return the belongings of the man who saved her life. This seems like it can be a true fantasy epic, and looks like a movie in quality.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A fun twist on an Isekai where Protag-chan can hop between the other world and ours, so she decides to use that ability to save up for retirement. Borderline gag comedy.</image:caption>
