Jitsu wa Watashi wa 13 left me with burning question: did Youko's dad really get his memories erased by the flying hammer of forgetfulness? I like to think he didn't; that would show a genuine change of heart rather than then just a silly plot device. The series had plenty of those already, really too … Continue reading The finale finales of Summer 2015: Jitsu wa, Seiyuu
After all that happened last week it was a probably necessary for Charlotte 12 to be a sort of healing episode. We watch Yuu slowly rehabilitate while at least one other ability user blames him for letting Kumagami die, the idiot. But it does place a sense of responsibility on Yuu and leads to his … Continue reading Twelves: Charlotte, Jitsu wa, Seiyuu, and Biyori: Repeat finale
Rampo Kitan: Game of Laplace is the first show of the season to finish, and it does so in no better or worse fashion than the ridiculous final story arc permits. Namikoshi's nefarious plan to create an explosion of twenty faces for society to deal with is near fruition with his own death. Meanwhile Kobayashi … Continue reading Laplace finale, CC 12, Seiyuu and Biyori Repeat 11, Teekyuu 59

This show is weakest when it shows antics like this, Natsumi trying to cover up the fact that she and Hikage ate all the moon-viewing dumplings, or in another episode, Hotarou trying to hide all of … Continue reading BiyoriRepeat, Laplace, and Seiyuu 9, Teekyuu 57
After an episode where the girls all do pretty well, it's back to anxiety and screwing up in Sore ga Seiyuu! 8. And she gets to screw up in two different venues, too! In the first half we see the girls prepare and perform their first live show at a not-so-packed free event at some … Continue reading Seiyuu and Biyori:R 8, Teekyuu 56
I guess Jitsu wa Watashi wa figured we didn't have enough weirdos in the school. Not that I mind. The new one, the demon Akane, thousands of years old but looking like a young girl and acting like a brat, can be fun to watch. And we learn just why all the weirdos are at … Continue reading Jitsu wa, Bioyri Repeat, and Seiyuu 7
