Junketsu no Maria – 01

「世界は真っ暗闇」 (Sekai wa Makkura Yami) "The World is in Total Darkness"

This is one that's going under everyone's radar, but seriously, you should all watch this right now. It's ambitious, emotional, and funny just when it wants to be. I'd even go as far as to say this was the best first episode of the entire season.

「ボーダートップチーム」 (Bouda Toppu Chimu) "Border's Top Teams"

World Trigger is destined for a long, slow adaptation - one that it doesn't deserve.

「私はスキをあきらめない」 (Watashi wa Suki o Akiramenai) "Never Back Down On Love"

I think it’s fair to say that Ikuhara Kunihiko’s return to anime was just as wild as expected.

Orenchi no Furo Jijou – The Best Bathtub Ever

By Samu December 29, 2014

「玉狛のA級隊員」 (Tamakoma no A kyuu Taiin ) "A-Rank Agents of Tamakoma"

Osamu may be the main character, and Yuma might be the most likeable, but Chika is secretly the star of the show.
