Why You Should Watch It: Shirobako does a great job of showing the utter chaos that is the making of an anime in Japan. There are meetings, checks and re-checks of all the storyboards, problems with the artists both on and offsite, voice recording sessions, ridiculously tight and complex schedules—and that’s all…

Why You Should Watch It: This anime is full of humor built on two levels. One is Kaoru trying to accept and understand her husband's otaku idiosyncrasies while the other is her husband and other otaku he knows trying to act normally around her—and often failing spectacularly. Thus, I Can’t Understand What My Husband…
