Dungeon Meshi – 03
「動く鎧」 (Ugoku Yoroi)
“Living Armor”
It should be pretty clear by now that Dungeon Meshi is a series obsessed with details.
Sengoku Youko – 02
「灼岩」 (Shakugan)
“Shakugan”
This is all going somewhere, everything that happens matters, and the journey cannot be separated from the destination.
Sousou no Frieren – 18
「級魔法使い選抜試験」 ( Ikkyuu Mahoutsukai Senbatsu Shiken)
“First-class Mage Exam”
Why do shows that stand out for being distinctive try so hard to be conventional?
Dungeon Meshi – 02
「ローストバジリスク/オムレツ/かき揚げ」 (Rousutobajirisuku/Omuretsu/Kakiage)
“Roast Basilisk/Omelet/Kakiage”
Dungeon Meshi gets very complex, but for me what makes the series charming is already front and center.
Sengoku Youko – 01
「我ら乱世を憂う者」 (Warera ranse o ureu mono)
“Those Who Worry For This Troubled Time”
What a Long, Strange Trip It’s Been
Yubisaki to Renren – 01
「雪の世界」 (Yuki no Sekai)
“Yuki’s World”
This was a solid premiere but nothing like a deal closer.
Sousou no Frieren – 17
「じゃあ元気で」 (Jaa Genki de)
“Take Care”
Just as I’m really getting into it, Frieren is headed for big change
Dungeon Meshi – 01
「水炊き/タルト」 (Mizutaki/Taruto)
“Hot Pot/Tart”
It may be my first of the season, but to say this premiere was a long time coming is an understatement.
Sousou no Frieren – 16
「長寿友達」 (Chouju Tomodachi)
“Long-lived Friends”
In a way, I think this story is as much as anything about how precariously one must balance to try and live in the moment.
