New To Weeaboo

Time for episode 93! And we returned to the world of Madoka Magica! Unfortunately, not with the 4th movie, but with the 2nd and 3rd seasons of Magia Record. And while we though season 1 was solid but fell short of the original, seasons 2 and 3 are kind of a mess. For various reasons. You can check them out on Crunchyroll.

Episode 92 is here! And we returned to the world of Haruhi Suzumiya, with The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-Chan! It's a bit of a what-if, taking place in a world without the supernatural. And it's also a romcom. Sot it's definitely a bit different from the original. Check it out on Crunchyroll!

Welcome to episode 91! We sample 4 mostly random anime from the Winter 2023 season, as is our tradition. We got a good variety this time around, too. Follow the adventures of an orphan and a demon, a princess and her not-yet girlfriend, a bunch of people running around with special playing cards, or a NEET turned into a middle-school girl, there's a lot. Check them out:

The tale of outcasts

The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady

HIGH CARD

ONIMAI: I'm Now Your Sister!

Time for episode 90! We return to SPY x FAMILY! Because part 2 of season 1 aired. And we have a bit to talk about. Like new characters, new adventures, and even good ol' theory-crafting. You can check out SPY x FAMILY on Crunchyroll.

Episode 89 is here to ring in 2023! And we talked about New Game, the anime about video game development. Kinda. And mostly focused on the art team. It definitely has its fun moments, but it also has a few odd problems. Some more obvious than others. You can check it out on Crunchyroll!

Welcome to episode 88! We watched Brand New Animal (or BNA if you prefer)! It's a Trigger anime, so it looks really good and it's full of style. Unfortunately, it's also rife with problems, particularly in the second half. You can check it out on Netflix.

It's time for episode 87! This time around, we watched Hibike! Euphonium (or Sound! Euphonium if you prefer). On one hand, it's a fantastic anime about a high school concert band. On the other hand, it's some of the worst yuri-bait in recent memory. So yeah, some mixed (yet passionate) feeling on this one. We also talked a bit about the spinoff movie Liz and the Blue Bird. Check it out on Crunchyroll! And note that neither movie is currently available on streaming services.

Episode 86 is here! After enjoying the first few episodes way back in our summer anime episode, we decided to watch the rest of Lycoris Recoil! And it was absolutely worth it. Check it out on Crunchyroll.

Welcome to episode 85! It's once again time to look at some of the current season's new anime. It's Fall, and the season is PACKED. We watched anime set in ancient China, one about ninjas, another about a guitarist with severe social anxiety, and Chainsaw Man. Are they good? Well, to varying degrees, yes. Check them out:

Raven of the Inner Palace Shinobi no Ittoki Bocchi the Rock! Chainsaw Man

Content Warning: Chainsaw Man is kinda graphic, it has violence, blood, gore, and mentions of suicide.

It's time for episode 84! Love Live! Superstar!! had a second season. So yes, there was some watching of it. This season is a first for LL, going beyond the usual single school year. Plus there's the 4 new first years. Also leaves a hook for the announced season 3. Check it out on Crunchyroll.
