「ギャルな女の子って本当ですか?」 (Galkona Onnanokotte Hontoudesuka?)
“Is True You’re A Gyaru?”
I’ve watched a lot of short-format shows in my time, but it’s been quite a while since I’ve liked one this much right from the start.

「夏祭りの時間」 (Natsu Matsuri no Jiken)
“Summer Festival Time”
After way too long of a wait, Assassination Classroom or Assclass makes it triumphant return by getting us up to speed and dropping just enough bait to keep us coming back for more.

「騎馬戦は足元を崩すべし アマゾンシティ総力戦 I」 (Gibasen wa Ashimoto o Kuzusubeshi Amazon Shiti Souryoku-sen I)
“In a Cavalry Battle, Knock Down the Foothold The All-Out War in Amazon City I”
While the structural underpinnings are improving, the details are still shifty.

「開宴」 (Kaien)
“The Banquet Begins”
GATE returns like it’s never been gone, with a set-up episode for the Flaming Dragon Arc and its battles to come.

「うまい棒とポテフと…／コーヒー牛乳キャンディとヤングドーナツと…」 (Umaibou to Poteto to… / Kouhii Gyuunyuu Kyandi to Yangudounatsu to…)
“Umaibo and Potato Fries and… / Coffee Milk Candy and Young Donuts…”
Dagashi Kashi combines two things I love: Zany comedy, and shipping.

「私の芸術的人生の7年間を要約する現実的寓意」 (Watashi no Geijutsu Teki Jinsei no 7 Nenkan o Youyaku suru Genjitsu Teki Guii)
“A Visceral Allegory of Seven Years of My Artistic Life”
Sekkou Boys – The tale of a 22 year-old art school graduate who suffers trauma from marble statues and is assigned to be the manager of a new idol group comprised of four talking marble statues. It’s just as ridiculous as it sounds, and it’s kind of amazing.

「夢を追う少女」 (Yume wo Ou Shōjo)
“Girls Who Chase After Their Dreams”
Pleasant charm, natural exposition, and hidden potential—it’s all a pilot can ask for.

「走馬灯」 (Soumato)
“Flashing Before My Eyes”
And cliffhanger. Bum bum bum…

「File 1: コード No. 538」 (File 1 : Kō do No. 538)
“File 1: Code No. 538”
Anime future police sentai. It’s as flashy as it sounds.

「メロディアスな暗号」 (Merodiasu na Angou)
“Melodious Cipher”
I think people are talking about the wrong things with this series, but I guess that’s to be expected.
