Endro ep 2. Continuing the momentum from the premier. I’m already partial to these sorts of shows and I should try to be a little objective, but the execution has been so perfect. The pacing and timing are impeccable, every bit lands. Good variety, too. Even the narrative execution is pretty legit, with the main party having some internal conflict and surprising character flaws, and the antagonist being at least as endearing as the heroes. I don’t know if it can keep up this sort of tempo (it’s reasonable to expect some slower eps), but so far, this has been brilliant.

Agreed and the comedy is also on point in this episode just like the premier and I do like the flaws the girls have too, it does make them endearing as well as a little relatable too. And I also agree with you about Mao being just as endearing too.

Believe it or not, my manager let me watch episode 2 of Kaguya-sama at work. And somehow, it was even better than episode 1. It was cute, wacky, and funny as heck.

The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

[screams in German]
I finally found a dark isekai where the main character doesn’t go hating on his classmates!!!
 
Instead, he (Assassin) is fully aware that his classmates were cursed and had to leave because he was framed for murder and his cursed classmates were being influenced by the evil king and princess. He aims to become stronger so he could come back and break the curse. Also, there are only 2 of his classmates which are curse-free; the Chosen Hero (Assassin broke his curse) and the Exorcist (who is resistant to curses). These people, while not completely aware like the Assassin, have their suspicions as well and try to keep a low profile, knowing that Assassin is innocent.
 
I’m glad I found this manga. A solo MC but not edgy as fuck. He’s just a loner by choice and doesn’t hate anyone, nor is he miserable. Just a cool normal dude without mental problems. Plus, his classmates are pretty cool people and not jerks, like real teens. Though, they are brainwashed right now.
 
Thank God.

History Channel’s Dogfights meets Crimson Skies: the Anime. I have no idea why I wasn’t watching Kotobuki from the from the moment it aired, but it’s great. Does ANYONE know what’s up with the SUBTITLES in EPISODE 2, though?

Magnificent KOTOBUKI ep 2. (That’s my new favorite macro.)
 
Anyway, this show is fun. I enjoyed the bickering between the main cast. KYRIE is my early favorite. Her VA is pretty good, and she probably has a tragic backstory or something. CHIKA is good, too. I hope they fight the whole time. And, of course, the dogfights are outstanding. Not only are they immersive and visually impressive, they actually show the characters’ personalities through how they fight. Middle of the ep kinda dragged, though. I hope it doesn’t get too political because I don’t care about that at all.

Ditto. I think that startup sequence in episode 1 was the hook for me. Showing that much instead of just “jump in, fly away” is exactly the sort of unnecessary attention to detail that I love to see in this sort of thing, and that’s saying nothing of the dogfights.
 
And it turns out the SUBTITLES are a deliberate choice. Maybe they’re trying to give them a comic book/ pulpy adventure/Star Wars sort of feel?

Alright, 11 ep backlog, two days off. Might watch the Broly movie with my father later.

Tsurune ep 13. Fast forward to the finals. Amazingly, the stuff with the twins actually paid off, showing how fragile their egos really are. Great final match, too. Seiya is so fucking smooth, I really grew fond of him in the second half. The show found another nice role for the girls, their enthusiasm providing good contrast to the stoicism of the archers. I even liked Minato’s narrating everyone’s shot. It’s a bit weird that such a grounded show would suddenly have all that the extra sheen and sparkle, but it’s the final showdown, so I was into it. And, of course, Minato’s last shot was incredible. I’m still such a sucker for full-circle endings.
 
All in all, despite some weak characterizations, Tsurune turned out to be pretty good, with visuals and art motifs that framed individual character motivations and emotions really well. Not all of it was great, but when they focused on Minato and Seiya, it sang excellently. And the kyuudo itself was awesome, very aesthetically pleasing. I liked it enough to slot in top 15 for 2018.

Manaria Friends ep 1. Why does Manaria get translated as Mysteria?
 
Anyway, this is basically Maid Dragon if Kobayashi was also magic. I loved the designs, particularly the uniforms. (Well, at least how the uniform looks on Grea.) Not all of it is great, though, it’s got some dude with a gross mullet. The acting by minor characters feels weird, but there probably won’t be a lot of them. All the expository dialogue was awkward, but other than that, the leads have a nice dynamic. It should get even better now that introductions are out of the way. I do appreciate that, even with its shorter runtime, it’s willing to dedicate copious amounts of time to the leads just staring longingly at each other. Should be fun.
