quick reviews of I'd recently finished:

- standard sports anime elevated by the focus on female characters. Gotta love a stubborn protag-chan who takes defeat with a smile and a vow to do better next time.

Rating: 3.5/5

- those sick of isekai as a genre will appreciate this comedic (also dark, endearing, and unique) take on what happens when an isekai'er returns to Earth after years of fantasy adventuring.

Rating: 4/5

I finished off watching season 2, which felt like more of the same schtick that made season 1 refreshing and appealing. The fun is starting to fray around the edges, though. At least Maple Tree and their fellow guilds hold a lot of entertaining characters who are just as strange and fun to watch as Maple.

Rolling onward, my next watch is , a sports anime about judo and also feels.

I think a large part of being so much fun is that there’s this, for want of better words, joyful innocence and enthusiasm for judo in the characters we’ve met so far.

@shoshoctopus (on HIDIVE) is doing some interesting things. It’s a girls judo series that, at least as far as I can tell, is taking the sport seriously… and still managing to be a really sweet show about the relationships of the girls in the team.

is really a sweet show. Which is not something I ever expected to say about a Judo anime that takes the sport SERIOUSLY.
