DreamFes R Episode 4
Increadibly funny episode especially after all the intense drama of the past two episodes lol. Junya reactioin was the best and then even with Mikami in the buff

The prank being on KUROFUNE and DearDream was a total surprise, I never saw it coming

Sakurada Reset END
Not a bad episode to cap things off, but the transition between the final episodes is really lacking. So how is Sakurada going to work going forward? They tied up the "romance" plot, but not the world itself.....

Funnily enough, it's both. The Blu-Ray is Volume 1 of Ultimate and the DVD is the TV series.

Huh. That's a surprise. Aniplex looking to split their content between Amazon and Netflix? Bidding wars? Exciting times.

Someone needs to save Nataku and fast, the battle this episode, where did his personality go I miss it. Goku do something.
The beginning demon conversation was full of emotions and friendship, everyone needs to stay together for ever, BFFs.

Hyped as hell lol. That Rocket Punch is going to be insane.
Putting Black Clover together with that Shitty Tail is blasphemy lol.

Might want to throw Hulu into the mix too since they recently secured the rights to stuff like Blue Exorcist S2 and Erased.
How is Hulu still a thing...?
Well they do still make originals. And it seems like the US catchup service.

Uploading episodes of non-CBS shows a day after their broadcast is pretty useful for cord-cutters.
Though going pay only and multiple tiers makes it sound somewhat complicated.
Viz? now theres something I keep forgetting still exists.
I think it became HiDive or something.

Basically yeah. TAN shut down a week or two ago, I think? They're just forums and information on the cable service now. Otherwise the, I think entire, library moved to HIDIVE.
Yeah. Am pretty happy with my Hidive sub, even if I'm forced to cast from my phone to my TV to watch stuff.
Its doing stuff other services should do, like getting more OVAs as well as offer home video releases as stream options.

Class of Edge 10
Eh, this is kind of boring when Ayanokoji isn't making shit happen and having others take credit for it as the shadow council. They need to return to his role as a secret agent man, othewise it's boring as shit. This whole arc has been like a fairly generic PG Battle Royale.
And the way this is going we have 2 or 3 more episodes left, and I don't know if it's enough time for one of the leaders of Class C or A to realize Ayanokoji is a stealth agent. So it's just going to end in a massive meh.

That was... expected.
After all the plot developments previously established this outcome seemed like the only logical follow up to the point that for a moment there I thought it was being done on purpose in order to come up with some sort of twist out of left field for a "gotcha" moment but nope, it all played out pretty much like one would have expected it to play out. Down to the overly dramatic soliloquies and carefully timed droplets of tears streaming down characters faces.
I wouldn't say it's a bad thing per se, it's just that after the show had finally managed to rise slightly above the cusp of mediocrity in the later episodes in the end it still ends up feeling... meh.
I will say this though, if in the finale they just end up bringing everyone back to life by using the power of pixiv or whatever then this show can go squarely into the garbage bin.

Short Peace - All of this is good stuff! It's clear I need more Katsuhiro Otomo in my life.
Tsuritama - Not much to say about this one. I mostly liked it. Made me want some curry. Ducku.
Big O - Season 1 - I'd always heard that this was basically just Batman the Animated Series with a giant robot, and well, that seems to be what it is and I like it. I never watched Big O back in the day and watching it now it feels like a saturday morning cartoon I'd already seen several seasons of. Onwards!
Golgo 13 - episode 15 - Some of the stories are pretty good, so I wish they'd give them more than 1 episode to develop. Like the prison break episode, that could have been a miniseries in itself, but nah. I don't think I've watched an anime that feels this much like a police procedural though, so that's something.
Interstella 5555 - The Daft Punk thing. Rewatched this for the first time since 2005. Let's just say I'm not a fan and my rating for it went down. I was expecting the opposite to happen, but hey, it is what it is.

Interstella 5555 is amazing and you should feel bad about it.
I tear up at the end every time.

TAN is still a thing, But the online subsidiary, TANO isn't anymore.
HiDive is another company altogether. They got TANO's entire backlog, {edit: looks like i'm misremembering sentai and section23 Films.}. At least that's what I remember reading. So, maybe i'm wrong.
So basically, its TANO's replacement, but also not really b/c future support is a big question mark.
My expectation is that it will last about as long as Daisuke.... maybe.
I want to complain so hard about all these splitting going on.

Blame Netflix
I feel like one practically needs to have read at least some of the manga to get something out of this.

I haven't read any of the manga and it seemed fine to me. But yes, I blame Netflix too.

Blame was pretty much a western in a post singularity world. It worked just fine that way.

My heart... What a wonderful story! I heard there's an entire season coming for this? My wife loves the show as well, really looking forward to more. It was gorgeous and the pacing was perfect. I hope they can retain that pacing when they switch to a series format. Super refreshing.

And rightfully so because nothing about it was all that memorable.Sagrada Reset END
Well the lead up to the final arc was awesome and it was awesome, I dont know about this plot in the final episode, it just seemed that at the end of the dayeveryone could just become friends and thats it, though in the Soma ends up the true loser cause no way can she end up with Kei, lol. So though the ending felt full of friendship, she ends up having to just accept being the loser. Oh well good for her can work with them both
Really overall one of the more gripping episodes week too week, too bad it will be one of the most forgotten anime of this year.
Be hyped for season 2, less than a month away now!!!

Yeah hulu is great for when I miss episodes of ABC shows and their movies too. (though was still baffled at times when ABC doesnt put one or two shows on it, like Quantico, and forces me to use their dumb website)

Puzzles & Dragons X Episode 62
Well I was worried the tournament would end uneventfully because of no AceLance fight but through this awesome work around we get it.
I hate Jest sama for what he did to Darkness sama and now with Lance. Please save him Ace.
I love the silly sound effects they still give even when intense suspenseful things are happening, whenever Devi is hit or hits the wall and we get that silly collision sound effect, lol.

I mean, it definitely sucks having to have multiple subs if you want to support the industry legally, but it was kind of the inevitable way streaming was going to go.
