“Beauty and the Boy”
Blood. Blood everywhere.
「アスタとユノ」 (Asuta to Yuno)
“Asta and Yuno”
I tell you, that boy’s voice is a national treasure.
「ふっかつ!おそ松さん」 (Fukkatsu! Osomatsu-san)
“Mr. Osomatsu Returns!”
The first season’s premiere is a tough act to follow, but S2 managed to match it.
「THE IDOLM@STER Prologue SideM -Episode of Jupiter-」
Jupiter finds new start with a new agency.
With the temperature dropping (finally), it can only mean one thing: it’s time for the fall season of anime! And when a new season starts, it can only mean one thing: it’s time for Random Curiosity’s Fall 2017 Preview! The preview that tries its best to find the gems of the season while giving you ample information to make an informed decision on what to spend your valuable time on. This season is chock full of sequels as well as your typical fare of 4-komas, romances, idol shows, and romcoms. And if you thought I was joking about sequels (or continuations, I don’t discriminate), we have Love Live! Sunshine!! Season 2, 3-gatsu no Lion 2nd Season, Osomatsu-san 2, and Himouto! Umaru-chan R just to name a few. Alongside all of those we also have an adaptation of a prequel (and sequel) to the popular “hero” show Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru, an adorable slice-of-life that combines anime-tropes with maid cafes in Blend S, a painfully accurate description of a point in time most if not all online gamers experience in Netojuu no Susume, and last but not least the return of our guilty pleasure cooking show Shokugeki no Souma: San no Sara. Overall, not too shabby of a season, even if it is a little heavy on the sequels.
「汝等ここに入るもの、一切の望みを捨てよ。/人間は自由の刑に処されている。」 (Nanjira Koko ni Hairu Mono, Issai no Nozomi o Sute yo. / Ningen wa Jiyū no Kei ni Shosa rete Iru.)
“Abandon All Hope, Ye Who Enter Here.” / “Man is Condemned to be Free”
A survival challenge to finally put to test how each of the first-year classes will perform. Will they sink or swim?
「人間は取引をする唯一の動物である。骨を交換する犬はいない」 (Ningen wa Torihiki o Suru Yuiitsu no Doubutsudearu. Hone o Koukan Suru Inu wa Inai)
“Man is an Animal that Makes Bargains: No Other Animal Does This – No Dog Exchanges Bones with Another”
Can’t say that I didn’t see that coming…

Now that every show has had a few episodes to make its case, it’s time to tell you what we’ll be blogging this season. This is Random Curiosity’s Summer 2017 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 blow up in our faces? Kami knows it’s happened before. But this is what we’re going with.
