A cute/stupid ecchi-almost-hentai driven by tropes that’s short enough to not get boring. Only here for the kinky times
Zombie Land Saga
A fantastic change of pace with wild comedy and warmest fuzzies.
Overlord (Seasons 1-3)
A fun and good watch but a bit lacking in direction.
Hinamatsuri
A quality comedy that does a surprisingly good exploration of the struggles of “making it” in life.
Plastic Memories
A good number of emotional gems stand out among cookie-cutter anime formula. Overall, it felt like the story, setting, and characters didn't match up right.
Cowboy Bebop: The Movie (Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door)
A great capstone to the series (that chronologically takes place before the series ends). Definitely worth finding and watching.
Cowboy Bebop
An amazing Space Western that also acts as a great gateway to anime in general.
Girls und Panzer
A feel-good sports anime starring cute girls in tanks. It feels like a war tactics game, like Valkyria Chronicles or somesuch. I enjoyed this more than I anticipated.
Skull-Faced Bookseller Honda-san
While the animation is pretty static, the voice acting brings this webcomic of working retail to life in a hilarious and endearing way.
Toradora!
Despite having a cut and dry predictable romcom plot, the character development here is surprisingly great, as are all of the characters. We found ourselves tremendously invested.
