Sasaki and Peeps coming out with probably the most unhinged joke I've seen an anime do in a while, and it's not even part of the actual episode: they cast a person named Sasaki in every single minor role in the episode

I love these because you can never tell which are real and which are made up for clout, nor can you check because AI results are generated on the spot and not replicable, but since Google decided to dig themselves into this hole, they deserve every bit of this disaster.

This is like the most classic example of yuri bait. I don't like how most people use that term but this is for real 100% queer bait. It's a straight romance series. Reina is in love with her male teacher. It's this anime's fault no one trusts subtextual yuri anymore.

Loser Ranger might genuinely be the best directed show this season if you take KyoAni out of the picture, style oozing out of every shot and Satou's approach, almost reminiscent of a cross between anime and live action, is serving it really well.

Outstanding from the script to the overall visual beats. As I said last week, this is where I started falling in love with this story. This arc, the way it all clicks together and boils over. This is where The Apothecary Diaries goes from simply good to shooting for the stars.

Jukki Hanada tweeting about how Ishihara and Takeda-sensei *agreed* to the changes he made to this episode means that he (as you'd expect of the screenwriter) was likely the one to suggest them. He walked into the script meeting one day and went, "guys, let's commit a murder."

Makeine's first three episodes were great, but its thesis statement wasn't quite clear yet (I mean, beyond the title), but with the fourth episode, everything finally clicked into place. Easily its most convincing episode yet, and one that shows it can achieve greatness.

Truly the end of an era. Not the most unexpected or narratively impressive finale, but it hardly needed to be. It wraps up a 13-episode journey (but also one of nine years) with incredible poise. Many things could be said about it, but that can come at a later date.

This week's Eupho was terrible. Terrible for my mental state. Taichi Ishidate, the one and only. This may well be the best episode of the show, period. The script is great as always, but the way he conveys everyone's anxieties visually is second to none. Fucking incredible.
