Sora no Woto ep 1: I feel like Sora no Woto wants to be both K-ON! and Haibane Renmei at the same time. Which, I don't even know, okay.

That aside, it looks like it could be cute, but it's too slow for my tastes. I can usually only enjoy really slow-paced stories if they're extremely eerie, like Mushishi or Kino no Tabi.

The OP song: the first few bars had me going WHAT IS THIS IT IS SO FAMILIAR OH MY GOD and then the vocals started up and I was like "...why does this sound like Kalafina." Well, I'm sure you can guess where I'm going with this. I just don't know how I managed not to know about this in advance.


Book of Bantorra continues to be absolutely incomprehensible yet strangely entertaining. I can't really get into it because the narrative is so all over the place - but after every episode I still want to watch the next one. Also, the lack of a real main character is simultaneously refreshing and jarring. The moment I start getting attached to anyone they disappear for several episodes.

Speaking of getting attached to characters, are Noloty and Enrique not the most adorable little things you have ever seen. THEY SHOW THEIR AFFECTION BY BEATING THE CRAP OUT OF EACH OTHER. No really! I do not even mean this in the usual, "they pretend to hate each other but it's really just pig-tail pulling" way! THIS IS JUST HOW THEY EXPRESS THEIR OBVIOUS OTP-NESS ETERNAL FRIENDSHIP.



Noloty: LET'S SAVE THE WORLD TOGETHER K? :D:D:D

Enrique: ......w-what

That poor boy never had a chance. (Well, his "dominant trait is stupidity", after all.)

Also, EPISODE 12. JESUS CHRIST THAT WAS THE HOTTEST THING. Fffffuck. I didn't know anyone even ever HAD casual sex in TV anime.
