    I started watching a couple shows I wasn’t following before. Anyways, here’s where things are at:

    • Blue Box: Still good, but it’s moving very slowly. When I read the manga I already had over a hundred chapters to burn through at once, so experiencing it like this is very very different.
    • Dandadan: An absolutely heart-wrenching episode. The animation team executed excellently on this one.
    • 365 Days to the Wedding: This is one of the shows I just got caught up on. I appreciate a show that features adult main characters. Overall it’s quite fun. Not as good as Wotakoi, but still good. Cutest ED I’ve ever seen.
    • Yakuza Fiance: Same comments as above, really, except that there’s nothing cute here. If you’re annoyed at how the main characters in romance anime always seem to be good people, look no further.
    • Mecha-ude: A while ago I said that this show is great at being charming and funny, and bad at being serious or edgy. Unfortunately it seems to be putting most of its screen time into serious and edgy stuff. I’ll keep watching it, but I’m finding myself enjoying it less than the other shows I’m watching this season.
