**KINGLY HEADPHONE WARNINGS**
How is this season THIS GOOD already?! We get SO much in three episodes:
* Mei DOMINATING (he is the king of course) over Yakushi (Sanada and Raichi have my HEART)
* A Quarterfinals Game with Seido
* The First Years getting acclimated and making stakes on the team!
I officially love our sweet bean Asada, but I think the dark horse to my heart is going to be Koshu...oh, oh honey...you think you're driving Sawamura away from you,...

The "Rule of 8" has not let me down in these cours, and this series is no exception!
Definitely my favorite episode so far! I LOVE all of the interactions between our boys, as Miyano gets fitted for the cultural festival drag show, and Sasaki deals with his own jealousy and insecurities about his feelings with Miyano....
Our two boys are getting closer and closer to cementing their feelings for each other and things are bubbling to the surface...now...

**AVENGER-ASSEMBLING HEADPHONE WARNINGS**
There's a lot I'll probably break down in Episode 25 that threw me off with this episode, but overall...Isayama, you knew we were headed here, and I am HERE for it!
There's a lot to talk about with these episodes and some INTERESTING things being set up, but Wine-chan and I are soaking in this brief moment of levity in the apocalypse...alongside the Erwin comparisons...

I have been waiting for the Golden Core reveal in The Untamed for a bit, now, and y'all did NOT disappoint with your hype for these episodes! NING! CHENG! WANGJI! These three in Episode 46 were AMAZING! The acting is MASTERFUL and there's just so much to gush about...
...and then we ALSO get Episode 47, where Yao shows his true "villain" colors and we get into Guanyin Temple! The STARES, y'all! Daggers fired everywhere, Cheng with a bad...

It took 95+ chapters, but our slow burn is finally boiling over! WuXian gets a not-so-good idea of getting Wangji drunk to find out answers, but the results are perhaps MORE than our chaotic gremlin could have expected!

Yaki_BF, this series is SO good, and this is definitely my favorite episode so far! We get deeper into this Banana Fish Alternate "Ending," with more of Yut Lung, Sing's past (with my favorite character), Ash and Eiji adorableness, and mystery detective work with Michael and Akira?! It's SO good!
There's still more Banana Fish Forever to come in the future, and I'll be excited to react to it in the future. For now, this is quite the myste...

Oh. Oh, so THIS is how we're starting the second cour?! This second half of the series is off to WILD start! Exposition! Suspicious Characters! Mysterious Backstories, and Moral Grayness! Shinoa was SO great in this episode, Mitsuba was so relatable, Guren was SO SHADY, and I felt so badly for Yu and his friends, caught in the middle of...whatever THIS is!
I've never been more suspicious of Guren (...

Another recommendation for me to watch before diving into the second cour; these short omake/snippets feel like outtakes by the mangaka adapted into anime format. I love the ones with our salty pink-haired dual wielder and Guren x Shinya is quite the dynamic...huh?

I apologize; this took a RIDICULOUS amount of time to edit and put together, so this series is going to be mostly in April, but it was fun narrowing the Top 64 to the top 32 Waifu's and Husbandos!
The "rubric" to narrow down this BROAD field was more generic; as we narrow down the bracket, the criteria will get more specific! I hope you enjoy the mostly spoiler-free narrowing of the Husbandos and Waifus y'all voted! ^^

I was told to watch this OVA before starting the second cour of Seraph of the End, and it was worth it! I self-contained story about Shahar, who is interesting for *REASONS* (besides being voiced by Yuki Kaji) but a little world-building, especially with our boy Yu, that seems like it'll be relevant in the episodes to come...Hmm...

Did...did Tae-Jun just become one of my favorite characters in this series?! H-how?!
Holy cow, this volume, though! This was definitely Tae-Jun's arc in this and I could not contain my fangirl enthusiasm reading his story in this! The character development! The intrigue about his devotion towards Yona! The comedy GOLD! This volume may be my favorite, yet, and we're still SO early on in the story!
I can't wait to fangirl with you all; thank you ...

This series has NOT let up from the craziness of the first episode -- there are not only some GORGEOUS shots in this episode, but the mystery, the intrigue, and the characterization of our main characters continues to grow! Everyone seems to have an ulterior motive, and it's hinging on our protagonist Shinji to "step up" and become a "hero"....whether he wants to or not!
Meanwhile, Shinji gains a new "ho...

Seriously, while our sunshine boy reaches the lowest depths felt since the loss at Inashiro, he has a new resolve! And just in time -- as we have NEW FIRST YEARS! Holy cow, I LOVE how these new characters have ALREADY shaken up the team dynamics in fun and fresh ways! There's SO MUCH potential with these new recruits and the second and third years are showing how they've grown over the past year as well!

Oh, so a cultural festival, huh? Miyano gets unwittingly dragged (literally) into a role that forces him to confront how he views himself, and meanwhile, Sasaki is confronted with his own feelings of jealousy and insecurity of Miyano's affection and possible rejection.
It's a crazy episode with us actually getting more into the class president (who is QUITE interesting) and taking the situations being set up in the first half of the season ...

As we reach the five-episode-warning for the end of the series, we're tying everything back around and entering "no man's land" for me, as I am SUPER curious how The Untamed will adapt the final chapters of MXTX's novel -- I don't know how the novel is going to handle the ending, either, so it's going to be fun afterwards comparing and contrasting!
But we already have alterations with the Burial Mounds fight and leading into the...
