  • It’s going to be such a hard choice for Yuuki when this all comes to a head. I was sitting there trying to figure out what I would do in his position, and I couldn’t really decide. On one end, your sister that you thought was lost is back, with a bunch of people who look like they got put in a bad situation through no fault of their own. On the other end, all of humanity, plus your newly found “family” that you’ve become a part of. However, the fact that I care this much means that this silly little ecchi show has done a good job with the story.


  • You know what would make this story a lot easier to understand? Arguments between lifelong bureaucrats about finer points of jurisdiction, committees, and escalating complaints.

    I almost spit out my drink at this comment. Too true. Let’s spend valuable time with this rather than something that moves the story along or explains things

    Have we met Jill before? If we did, I don’t remember it. Rouge seems to know who they are, so let’s roll with it…

    I was thinking she was on the land crawler trip on Mars but could be entirely wrong. Too lazy to go look, but I had the same attitude as you “Well she’s here now, and Rouge remembers her, so I guess that’s fine”

    My impressions at this point are that rather than starting to wrap things up and move to a conclusion in episode 7, they’re adding in more and more plot threads that they’ll have to resolve in the next 5 episodes. Still having a good time though.







  • From your list, I really enjoyed I’m in Love with the Villainess, Sacrificial Princess, Magical Revolution, and Buddy Daddies. Zom100, Overtake, and Yuri is My Job were on the decent tier. I didn’t watch Pluto or Ooku, so can’t comment on those. However, Helk was really the one show that I tried so hard to like, but it just couldn’t fully get there. I really enjoyed the beginning few episodes, and even the whole flashback arc that a lot of people despised. But after the flashbacks were over, it seemed like they lost their way and tried to do too much and be too many different things. The whole reason the bad guys did everything didn’t make any sense (who is farming or making food or providing services in this kingdom?) but I did appreciate the underlying positive message. Maybe now that they’ve set everything else up, a S2 would be more consistent. I’ll still give it a chance if they make more.

    For me, my favorite 10 shows this year are probably (in no particular order)

    Heavenly Delusion

    Tomo Chan is a Girl

    Ruroni Kenshin

    Apothecary Diary

    The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses

    Dark Gathering

    100 girlfriends Who Really Love You

    Undead Girl Murder Farce

    Sacrificial Princess

    Hell’s Paradise

    Frieren is still running, otherwise it’d be on here too. Undead Unluck was a serious contender too. That show is a lot of fun.








  • This was a really nice episode. Lady Black really redeemed herself after the terrible showing last time. She really puts the Tsun in Tsundere for sure, but underneath she’s got a big and strong heart. I guess you would need to for healing powers. Also the calligraphy part was very neat, and I liked how she had to earn the “Ah ha!” moment.





  • I think my favorite thing about this show is that they didn’t go full “I’m gonna change my ways and be nice to everyone to fix my future” like a lot of shows would. She’s still the same selfish character (for the most part) and isn’t doing her good deeds out of any sense of altruism. Rather she’s trying to help herself, and in the process is righting wrongs that she still is mostly unaware of.
