Aggretsuko continues doing what it does so well, even if the gap moe is turned down a bit.
Aggretsuko (Season 3)
Usagi Drop
A mature, heavy, and heartwarmingly human piece focusing on fatherhood and family. Complete with a beautiful and tender soundtrack that gets the feels rolling.
Yuki Yuna is a Hero: Washio Sumi Chapter
A decent prequel, has some cries, but they feel a bit shallow/forced. There isn't as much of an emotional dynamic/contrast, but it still has merit, especially the music.
MIRAI
Mirai is a magical family-focused movie that feels like a modern, Japanese "Coco" but with much less stress and more appreciation for simple things.
A Certain Magical Index: The Movie – The Miracle of Endymion
The movie is the best in the Index series, but that isn't saying much. Animation is improved, but it still bears all the sins of the series: Constant exposition, convoluted plot, and the same tired ecchi jokes. It also ignores the ending of Index II despite taking place right after it.
Tsuredure Children
A short and sweet vignette of cute and funny relationship-centered scenes.
Yuki Yuna is a Hero
While unapologetically a Madoka-inspired Magical Girl show, it does take its own approach and has a more gradual pace. A slightly warm Cherry Pepsi to Madoka's crisp, icy Vanilla Coke.
Magical Girl Spec-Ops Asuka
While I really liked the premise, I feel the execution fell short on all fronts. Lackluster animation, characters, and dialogue led me to literally fall asleep during the final battles.
A Certain Scientific Railgun S
An improvement over the first Railgun season! Railgun S takes Misaka's arc from Index and properly develops it and gives it the weight, drama, and time it deserves.
Restaurant to Another World (Isekai Shokudou)
A fun, cozy, and stress-free vignette piece of various fantasy customers discovering great food. Surprisingly high production value.
