「0人目の男」 (Hitome no Otoko)
“The 10th Man”
In a very real sense, for me the Fall 2018 anime season starts with Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru.

「4時44分の儀式」 (4 Ji 44 Pun no Gishiki)
“Ritual at 4:44 “
Although there are no elevators or infidelity in this ritual, Akanesasu Shoujo brings enough intrigue as it delves into a world within radio frequencies.

Ah, spring is here! Well, it is down here in Australia anyway, where the weather is heating up and the sooty smell of bushfire is already in the air. Fun. In animeland, though, it’s autumn, the season of food and plenty, so accordingly we have a fresh crop of shows ready for harvest. The seeds of sequels sown sooner have since seen sprout, giving us six more episodes of the singular FLCL, a third season of the seminal To Aru Majutsu no Index, and an insane 4-cour streak of Sword Art Online. Still starving for serials? Then Fairy Tale, Tokyo Ghoul, and JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure all serve second (or more) seasons. But if you’re sick to your stomach of the same script, you should seek special stimulation. The least straightforward shows of any season are the originals, and Fall 2018 has several across the spectrum, from P.A. Work’s supernatural slice-of-life Irozuku Sekai no Ashita kara to the hard science-fiction of RErideD to… whatever Release the Spyce supposes to screen. But enough of this silliness. As always, our crack team of animethusiasts have taste-tested all of this season’s offerings and are waiting to provide you with samples and suggestions for your informed viewing pleasure. This is Random Curiosity’s Fall 2018 Preview.

Now that every show has had several episodes to make its case, it’s time to tell you what we’ll be blogging this season. This is Random Curiosity’s Summer 2018 blogging schedule.
As always, this is a tentative overview of our plans for the new season . . . is what we used to say, but with multiple episodes under our belts, we’re pretty confident in our picks. Will some of them flounder down the stretch? It’s happened before. This is what we’re going with for now.

「ゆらぎ荘の幽奈さん」 (Yuragi-sou no Yuuna-san)
“The Yuragi Inn’s Yuuna”
The downsides of a haunted hot spring are severely outweighed by a monthly rent of $9, as well as getting to cohabitate with a well-endowed ghost girl.
Warning: Censored but still NSFW

「蘇えりし者、夜に嗤う」 (Soerishisha, Yoru ni Warau)
“The Revenant Howls in the Darkness”
I’m never exactly sure why the vampire hunters are as dedicated to the masquerade as the vampires are.
