「通じる女たち」 (Tsuujiru onna-tachi)
“Communicating Women”
Counting cards the old fashioned way.

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 Winter 2019 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 fall apart in the final mile? It’s happened before. This is what we’re going with for now.
Mob Psycho 100 II – 04

「中身 ～悪霊～」 (Nakami ~ Akuryou ~)
“Inside ~Evil Spirit~”
It goes without saying that Mob Psycho 100 is a series with tremendous tonal versatility, and we’ve seen a good chunk of that range in the first four eps of this season.
Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken – 17

「集う者達」 (Tsudou Monotachi)
“The Gathering”
Another episode, another handful of people realizing just how fantastic Rimuru is as both a person and a leader.
Up to Snuff 1/28/19 – McDonald’s! McDonald’s! McDonald’s!
The King is dead – long live the King! Well – wounded anyway. Peeved, at least.
A Gleam In Your … Nevermind
This quick announcement is to tell you all that Gleam, the new writer we brought on for this season, is no longer a part of Random Curiosity. We didn’t have a falling out or anything. The honest truth is that he disappeared. It’s embarrassing to admit that a writer went AWOL after three posts, because we put time and effort into giving him the tools to succeed at RandomC and he just … left. No idea why. Honestly we’re worried something bad might have happened, but we have no way of knowing when we reach out but receive no reply.
The reason I made a special post to tell you this, instead of bundling it into the schedule that will appear in the few days, is partially to explain why we’ll be covering fewer shows than expected this season. We tried to cover more, after all. But it’s also to ask anyone who’s interested in writing for Random Curiosity, or anyone who’s passionate about RC, to apply. We’re in the process of revamping the site (yes, that’s still happening) to make it smoother to read and easier to interact with, but the elemental truth is that if we don’t get more writers soon, RandomC will wither on the vine. We have a good stable of writers, but more and more of us have jobs and relationships and other responsibilities tugging at us, and we can’t devote time to blogging like we used to. The last few recruitment drives have seen fewer responses, but I know there are people excited about anime reading this who would love to contribute. I encourage those people to apply.
Send an email to stilts(at)randomc(dot)net if you’re interested. Thank you.

「金木犀の騎士」 (Kinmokusei no Kishi)

「かぐや様は交換したい／藤原ちゃんは出かけたい／白銀御行は隠したい」 (Kagu ya-sama wa Koukan Shitai/ Fujiwara-chan wa Dekaketai/ Shirogane Onkou wa Kakushitai)
“Miyuki Shirogane Still Hasn’t Done It / Kaguya Wants to Be Figured Out / Kaguya Wants to Walk”
Three episodes is a pretty decent window in which to formulate an opinion, and sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
