One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
And it makes them look like a bunch of idiots, not a paramilitary force lead by an aristocratic strategist in line to become monarch.

Herve's story and the background mythology it ties into is much less interesting so far than that of the girls.

It's amusing that director Kou Matsuo himself had a cameo in his episode, voicing one of the teachers.

Most of the series mentioned here are on Crunchyroll or Funimation. If you look at the OP, the shows will have little icons showing which site is streaming them. Netflix and Hulu are usually for older stuff. It's rare to see them simulcast (airing as it airs in Japan) anime.

I'll be honest this episode didn't grab me at all at first. Coming off of the really strong episodes we had leading up to this, this one was just... meh. Setup, setup, setup. The interesting bit was the confirmation that
Mirage does seem to have a thing for Hayate and just like Freyja, she was listening on her with him while hiding and feeling jealous.
Aside from that yeah. Guess 13 and onwards is where the real meat of this arc is going to be.

Whoever was mentioning how much of a hard time Messer was giving Hayate, he has nothing on the amount of seething criticism Mikumo keeps pouring on poor Freyja. She'd be a good stand in for Simon Cowell.

Then as I was feeling bad for her, she went and
got distracted leading to her friends falling into a trap.
Mikumo was right all along.

Andy and Frank are the best characters in this show. I laughed my ass off everytime they were on scene.

Also, they really should stop trying to measure the race in actual values. It's getting even more ridiculous. They say 300m to the checkpoint, then 20min go by and they say 270, then another 10min and 250, then another and 200. One time they say like, 80, then ab guy dodges the cones and there's a scene that shows them getting left behind that clearly spans over 20m in just that shot alone, and then 3min later he says 70m to the finish line.

Lastly, this coach smug face is getting to me. He spoke less in this entire show than the quiet 2nd year, but every goddamn time he appears in the screen he is smiling. It's creeping me out.

Is there a list of the not garbage episodes of the new Lupin run? I watched the first episode but it was really lacking any punch...and the second one is about soccer so I already don't wanna watch it...

The real nature of the problem is that there's nothing but Rem porn.

Where's my Puck x Subaru???

With Re:Zero I completely forgot that the whale isn't even the end game in this loop, if they manage to get past that before the season ends then there's still cultist and Betelgeuse fuckery awaiting them. This is defo Dark Souls NG+ territory.
 
Saredo Tsumibito wa Ryuu to Odoru: Dances with the Dragons anime announced.

It's a pretty old LN series(since 2003) btw.

The series takes place in an alternate world, staged mostly in the city of Eridana, whose territory is half in the Tseberun Dragon Empire, and half in the Lapetodes Seven Cities Alliance. Each half is separated by the Orielal River. In this world, special abilities called spell formulas (&#21650;&#24335;, jushiki) exist, which are essentially chemical reactions augmented through special weapons that cause a magic spell-like effect. These special weapons are called Magic Staff weapons, and are as varied as regular weapons are. Spell formulists use these spell formulas to fight with "Beasts of Abhorrent Form," natural creatures that use spell formulas and pose a threat to humans, such as Dragons, Aions, or Enormes.

The story focuses on the two main characters, Gaius Sorel and Gigina Ashley-Bufh, the only two employees of Spell Formulist dispatch office Ashley-Bufh & Sorel Co. They are met with a variety of requests from a variety of clients, all requiring the adept use of spell formulas.

I've seen Kara no Kyoukai movies until Paradox Spiral but I really felt it was missing the atmosphere of the previous films - the first, second and fourth film notably. I do plan on rewatching them at some point.

Cuteness overload.

Also had probably the most realistic depiction of parenting I've ever seen in anime.

A standout episode of the show.
