Like most short pieces, it's not phenomenal but it's short enough that it's not a waste of time. Hits its groove after a few episodes.
I Can’t Understand What My Husband is Saying
Horimiya
A refreshingly mature high school romcom with some solid substance and intricate characters.
Fruits Basket (2001)
While definitely an "Early 2000's shojo anime" there is a lot here that really endures (and endears) that makes it worthwhile as more than just an important contextual piece, but an excellent exploration of growth through trauma.
In/Spectre
An interesting mystery and exploration of truth with strong classically Japanese cultural spirits, albeit with somewhat shallow and annoying characters at times.
Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop
A wholesome, feel-good, low-stress adorable piece that channels the essence of teenage summer.
Wonder Egg Priority
A beautiful, raw, rattling ride focusing on human trauma in a non-pandering way. For about 70% of the way, then has a disappointing finish.
My Dress-Up Darling
An excellently executed delight with fantastic characters, warm fuzzies, and a fascinating dive into the cosplay hobby.
BELLE
A magical and soul-stirring piece with beauty musically, emotionally, and artistically.
Crossing Time
A super short vignette series of interactions waiting at the Railroad crossing. Nothing special, but it beats doom-scrolling reddit/twitter for an hour at least.
Komi Can’t Communicate (Season 1)
Cute and fun, but nothing too groundbreaking. Certainly has some great moments.
