Nagi no Asukara – 14

「約束の日」 (Yakusoku no Hi)
“The Promised Day”
Well that preview was a red herring if I ever saw one.
Sakura Trick – 01

「桜色のはじまり／やきそばとベランダと女の子」 (Sakurairo no Hajimari/ Yakisoba to Beranda to Onnanoko)
“Sakura-colored Beginnings / Yakisoba, Verandas, and Girls”
Seriously, just confess your love for each other already! Though it’s not like I’m not enjoying watching them flirt. Yuri banzai!
Samurai Flamenco – 12

「ドキュメント！これがフラメンジャーだ!!」 (Dokyumento! Kore ga Furamenjā da!!)
“Document! We Are The Flamengers!!”
After a long break from Samurai Flamenco, we are back!
Hoozuki no Reitetsu – 01

“The Biggest Hell/Strange Discovery in Hell”
Winter’s oddest series joins the fray.
Gin no Saji Second Season – 01

「八軒、副部長になる」 (Hachiken, fuku buchou ni naru)
“Hachiken Becomes a Vice-President”
Some things never change. And thank goodness for that.
Mahou Sensou – 01

「真夏の魔法少女」 (Manatsu no Mahou Shoujo)
“Midsummer Magical Girl”
Mahou Sensou‘s first episode leaves much to be desired. There’s potential, but the series is fighting an uphill battle.
Mikakunin de Shinkoukei – 01

「何事も最初が肝心です」 (Nanigoto mo Saisho ga Kanjindesu)
“First Impressions Are Everything”
Characters rule the day in Mikakunin de Shinkoukei, and it works because they’re very good characters who are treated with kindness and respect. Equal measures funny, warm, and romantic, I very much enjoyed this first episode.

「復活の…邪王真眼」 (Fukkatsu no … Jyaoo Shingan)
“Revival of the… Wicked Eye”
Oh hey, isn’t Chu2Koi Ren another sequel this season? I must be the resident slice-of-life and sequel writer! Jokes aside, Chu2Koi Ren is a show that needs no introduction — unless you haven’t watched the first season. Which if you haven’t, go do it. Right now.

「File-01 コロンブスの卵」 (File-01 Koronbusu no Tamago)
“File-01: Egg of Columbus”
I love a good mystery and there haven’t been that many lately that blew me away. I’ll definitely stick around to see what’s in store…
