Bakuman. – 14

(Batoru to Mosha)
"Battle and Reproduction"

From what I can gather, it looks like Bakuman started moving toward a two chapter per episode pace rather than one to one and a half. What does that mean? An even better Bakuman that manages to keep your damn attention. With a combination of much needed drama and some real friend building moments, this weeks episode stands out as one of the better ones.

Mitsudomoe Zouryouchuu! – 01

(Nerawareta Kodomo-tachi! Nihon Metsubou Kauntodaun!)
"The Targeted Children! Countdown to Japan's Destruction!"

A series that needs no introduction, we are finally graced with the second season of everyones favorite comedy, Mitsudomoe (Zouryouchuu)! After a whole season without Hitoha's evil look, Futabas ridiculous love for boobs, and Mitsubas stuck up attitude, I was so excited to finally be reunited with my favorite trio of siblings. But instead of giving me a triple dose of Marui madness, I get a full episode of the Gachi Rangers!

Tegami Bachi REVERSE – 14

A heartfelt reunion that I've been waiting to see since the first season.

(Matataki no Hi)
"Day of Flicker"

The truth behind the Day of Flicker is revealed and Gauche reawakens with his original memories intact? How could I possible let this episode go by without saying a few words about it? We have new opening and ending themes to boot, with Suga Shikao back for the former. For the ending we have a catchy song by Yamazaru, alongside a really cute sequence that busts it old school SNES Mode 7 style. Taking that all into consideration, I'm quickly reminded why I like this series so much.

FREEZING – 01

Untouchable Queen

If you were only expecting big-breasted girls getting their clothes torn up in battle, you only have part of the picture for this adaptation of Dall-Young Lim's manga. Not only do the Void Texture "stigmata" embedded in their bodies regenerate their clothes, the female warriors known as Pandoras have to cope with getting their limbs chopped off, throats slit, and eyes gouged out too.
