Its gay. The main guy gets a leash for the other main guy who turns into a cute cat.

Sacred Rider Xechs is also gay (its a harem show for girls).


This season has been kinda lackluster so far, but I haven't watchedeverythingyet, so reserving judgement.

Arslan Senki is still fucking boring as hell, that show should've been done last season. His super soldiers trounce a new band of retards every show because of their super genius tactician while super prince acts heroic.


First episode of Mob Psycho 100 was decent, will keep watching. The art is funky but it was written by the same guy who created One Punch Man, so I'll be sticking with it.


Rewrite is a pretty good show for a rom-com. The original VN was written by Key, who did Clannad. The main dude isn't a loser and the girls have pretty good personalities. I admit Kotori is growing on me.

Ange Vierge's first episode was straight-up fan service. They literally spent half the episode naked.

Taboo Tattoo is alright, not expecting a lot of course.

As for the giant Spirit in Re:zero.

Are you sure it's Puck? Cause with the line "Sleep... Like my daughter" it sounds like it could possibly be Pucks mom or dad? Or possibly one of Eli's parents? It just seems strange that they would use that line in particular after all that devastation. I am so intrigued by this anime by wtf is going on. Can't wait for the next episode.
99% it is puck. Eli is considered family in the novels. Was also puck who froze the walls and cultists in the hidden catacombs. He's one of the 4(?) great spirits

Well if it's puck doesn't that kind of prove that Emilia is, in fact, the witch? I hope it doesn't end up being something stupid like she's bipoler or margrave or whatever the fuck his name is, isn't suppressing her memory and mind controlling her

It is puck and thats the last time you see him do that. Read through the spoilers on the re:zero wiki which go up to volume 8. In the novel though he only freezes Subaru not decapitate him.

For some reason I'm liking Planetarian, I think mostly for the setting rather than liking either of the 2 main characters.

I have one word for you: Revan. I haven't read any of the source material but I can definitely see it being a case of the Revan.

91 Days - Great first episode. High quality story so far. Will probably finish it.
Mob Psycho 100 - Interesting animation. Psycodelic indeed. Funny and interesting. Will probably finish it.
Shokugeki no Soma S2 - More of the great anime we loved in the first season. No filler stuff, so yay! Must watch.
Berserk - Meh I find it ok. It isn't great, but it isn't horrible. An ok anime worth watching... especially since it is all new story. Doesn't live up to the hype, but stands over some other anime.
Days - Soccer anime where main character is clumsy but apparently he is going to be the next big shit because he doesn't give up or complain. Meh. Will watch a bit more because I am craving sports anime.
Taboo Tattoo - Story doesn't make sense so far. Will watch one more episode.
Puzzle and Dragons Cross - I guess you would like this if you like watching pokemon? *shrug* Dropping it.
ReLife - Have only watched one episde, but it is a nice slice of life anime. Interesting two main characters and the premise is good. Will finish for sure.
Amaama to Inazuma - Great anime. Another slice of life mixed with cooking. Will watch for sure.

Other stuff
Watching Arslan Senki S1 because there is a second season is out. Ok so far. Slowly watching it. Has a lot of ups and downs.

About Re:Zero

This last episode was pretty great. I don't see Emi being the Witch herself...and then being killed by her own servant (unless the Sin Archbishop is a traitor, but then again, if she IS the Witch, the Archbishop probably knew about Puck, and when it would be best to kill Emi/Witch). It was still pretty brutal of Puck to kill Subaru the way he did, I wonder if he (Puck) knows about Subaru's curse of resurrection and killed him so he could help Emi. Hopefully we won't see anymore of Subaru being a dumbass now that he's lost so much.
