Reincarnated Assassin episodes 11 and 12, which I'm assuming is the end of the season. Hopefully a S2 gets announced.

Not sure if the guy at the end is the real Hero, or another fake-out. Well, considering he's got a ridiculous eye-gradient shade, I guess he must be the Hero. I don't think a mook of the week would get something special like that.

Was that the end of the eason though? I'm not so sure as didn't it state next episode at the end? I'll have to recheck later

I noticed Jobless Hero did not update, so I'm assuming 23 was the end for at least now.

86 updated... I've been liking that series, but not so sure just how much further it can go... I do hope eventually the original girl that was their commander shows up again I know they were invaded, does not mean she was dead though.

Watched all of Odd Taxi, and the first two episodes of In the Land of Leadale and My Dress Up Darling.

Odd Taxi was a odd, slow paced series, but it was very entertaining none the less. Odokawa was a great straight man, and the other characters were nice in their own ways. That twist in the last episode was surprising, as was the ending surprise. (On a side note, ANN says that Odd Taxi is getting a compilation film on April 1, that will also show what happened after the tv finale.)

In the Land of Leadale reminds me of 'Killing Slimes for 300 Years...' in a good way. Both MC's are likeable characters and the side characters are interesting.

My Dress Up Darling... Okay, I can see why this series is popular. It's cute. Art style is great, the interaction of the MC's isn't forced, and it's got an interesting premise. Really enjoying this one.

It also gets into a lot of detail regarding cosplay culture, how to make costumes, wigs, applying make-up etc.

In addition to rewatching 5 series, I am wating the new season 2's of both Realist Hero and Arifureta.

The newest episode of Realist Hero has them in the meeting rooom talking about a number of items, just like th elight novels... but it skips two items in the light novels to save time.

The first is a minor item, in the light novels, Jeanne notices the bed and comments her sister does the same thing.

More importantly, the second item skipped is when Jeanne asks why he did not sign the Mankind Declarions, in both he does not give an exact answer, but int he light novel, he tells he a story about a similar story from his (our) world, as a sort of warning to her. that was about our Helsinki accords... later in the light novels this is fully addressed and explained why he told it, and why he did not sign the Mankind declaration, and what the loophole was that he could not tell them at this earlier meeting...

Finished Tsukimichi Moonlight Fantasy episodes 7-12. It wasn't bad, but the pacing was really off. It felt like it wanted to be an adventure show, but settled down into a slice-of-life pace without truly being slice-of-life, then the last two episodes realised the season was about to end so scrambled to have plot development.

Just watched newest Arifureta, that Bounty Hunter/Assassin, and the new episode of Legend of Galactic Heroes. That last is surprising as I did not think it even came out for another week or so...

Bounty Hunter/Assassin? Which show is that?
 

PCHeintz72

I had kept forgetting the name, but the one I keep calling the bounty Hunter/Assassin show is really called Love of Kill... they met when they happened to have the same assignment... he (assassin) keeps pursuing her (bounty hunter). He is whimsical, she is serious... they keep crossing paths and end up saving each other, and there is also a prior past between him and her. Quite good, I like it, a bit grittier than my own normal tastes, but an interesting mix of emotions

Got caught up on Realist Hero, Arifureta, Weakest Crest, 86, and also a Extra Episode of the Jobless Hero.

Now up to episode 13 of rewatching Maburaho.

Love of Kill is one of the many on my backlog to watch, too.

Anyways, caught up on My Dress-Up Darling, up to episode 11. I then watched one episode of 'Life With an Ordinary Guy Who Reincarnated Into a Total Fantasy Knockout' before realising that even if I'm weeb trash, I'm not that much of weeb trash to watch any more of it.

Episode 12 of My Dress-Up Darling.

I watched five episodes of The Strongest Sage with the Weakest Crest before dropping it. I'd say it's generic power fantasy reincarnation trash, but I feel like the anime is probably doing its source material dirty, because the first episode moved at pacing that would probably take like three or six episodes in other anime, and only slowed down by the third episode. Honestly, I would've dropped it after the third episode, but then it added cute dragon-cum-human-girl which extended its shelf life for a couple more episodes.

The newest Realist Hero episode did some shuffling, probably in the effort to fit it in the standard arc size and still end at end cover the meeting with the king where he finally learns why he was made king (next ep).. It jumped into the episode with Excel as their marital teacher. But nowhere was the arc with Souma visiting Excel and Caastor Vargas covered... I liked the carrier arc, it gave Castor more air time, and also showed he did in the end agreeSouma was a good king and was rewarded for his penetence by getting some of his leadership skills back, and at the same time continued Soumas stance of if you have a ability he would put it to use. Also instead of stating she drugged him personally, it stated she had a spell cast on him to reveal his stances and outlooks instead.

I watched the first half (6 episodes) of Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid S2. I'm glad I put off watching it until after the entire thing aired, because I went through the first half really quick!

I watched Classroom of the Elite season 1 (12 episodes). Season 2 due to air July this year. The first half was interesting. The last 4 episodes start to get bogged down, though.

I'm mildly amused by the ending, at least. Horikita starts pulling the whole blushing tsundere 'it's not like I like you or anything, baka' routine, only for a cutaway to Ayanokoji's inner thoughts showing he's so detached and sociopathic that he doesn't even think of her as a friend, just a tool. The show's been hinting at it for a while, but only really gives the impression he's coolly detached and apathetic but secretly hiding an immense amount of talent. The contrast in the ending is interesting.

I watched the first two episodes of Spy X Family. This must be what it's like to start watching a series right as soon as it starts airing. Now I have to wait every week for a new release :confused:

Also watched the first episode of Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear. Cute and lighthearted, so I'll add it to my queue for watching the entire thing later.

I watched Episode 3 of Spy X Family (or is the notation 'SpyXFamily' with no spaces?)

@BtML since you mentioned reading the Spy X Family manga
