New Game S2 12 END
Pitch perfect final episode with a moving conclusion on departures. Yes, this can feel just as brutal as this episode depicts, especially if it's someone who you look up to. They've really knocked it out of the park with this development.
This arc weaves in comfortably with the narrative it has been following since the beginning of the season on creative work - taking the opportunity, learning, teaching and moving on. Momiji and Naru's presence fill in the void that Kou leaves while also adding more in the process. The moment when Aoba mistakenly assumes Kou is still in the office when it was just the cat - ooof, that hurt. The loneliness was reverberating.
If it isn't already obvious, this was a pretty swell season. I can't even recall an episode that let me down.

This episode was better than the previous 2 or 3 though. I'll watch the 2nd season as well.

Oh fuck that.
Or just more Nozaki.
Or dump them both for more Sabagebu.

Less Nozaki and more Engaged to the Unidentified.
Moving to Texas has been the best thing I've ever done. There's actually anime movies showing near me now. Got tickets to go see NGNL Zero at a movie theater like 10 minutes from my house.
Listening through the Made in Abyss soundtrack right now.
This really is a sublime work. I don't think there's any contender this year for the crown of 'Best anime OST' that can compete with it. Hell, it might be one of the best musical works of this year period!
I'm really looking forward to that hour-long final episode now. There's still several tracks that haven't been used in the series so far, so I'm definitely looking forward to hearing them used in-context.
Aside from "Underground River" and "Hanezeve Caradhina", which everyone has praised everywhere, standout tracks include:
"Those Everyday Feels" - the marimba track used during the NEP, the full thing is a minute and fifteen seconds long and I lack the vocabulary to properly describe what makes me enjoy it so much. It just has this wonderful catchy melody and a sense of progression that's quite apropos of the setting and plot.
"Gallantry and Recapitulation" - An intense string track that is, thus far, unused in the series and has a strong sense of activity to it. I fully expect this to be used in the final episode's climax at some point.
"Relinquish" and "Forces Beyond Control" - These two come as a pair IMO. Used in the most intense scenes with the greatest level of mortal danger for our protagonists, together they really helped sell the sense of despair one would expect from such dire scenarios.
"Tour the Abyss" - With nothing more but a simple piano backed by electronic noises and some very understated percussion, this track is a perfect accompaniment for the moments of greater mystery surrounding the Abyss.
"In the Blind" - With a strong violin accompanied by smooth, ethereal synths, this is definitely one of the more memorable tracks in the series. There is a palpable sense of relief once the latter half kicks in and the melody switches gears.
But really, the whole soundtrack is a good listen and one of the most interesting and unique works I've ever had the pleasure of absorbing. I hope Kevin Penkin gets plenty more work after this!

Yeah seems that way. But then Food Wars S3 is CR so who knows.
Glad that pretty much guarantees that there will be another funimation dub.

Only one on that list that is exciting for me is King's Game, but also Code:realize. Surprised their doing no male idols except for DreamFes.

Garo would be nice, but the most important thing of this anouncement is super hype fun idol anime Love Live Sunshine s2 will be on CR. now if only CR can license WuG s2 for streaming then all the idorus shows this season will basically be on one streaming service.

I don't even know what is starting next week. I'm just going to go typical and watch everything because I am insane.
Like I literally haven't bothered to look what is coming out.

Funimation/CR announced damn near everything I was hoping for. Now they just got to confirm The Vanishing Line.
I think Crunchyroll has the subbed streaming rights to Food Wars in General.

Violet Evergarden, CC Sakura, Shaft Fate and Pop Team Epic seem a lot more interesting than whatever is coming this season.
