The original author wrote a new book after the first season aired, so there was more material to adapt, which was fortunate.

No problem.

Some of these will be stretching the point of ‘recent’, since some as approx as old as Gurren Lagann, but you might have missed them.

Saw that too. Realised after posting this that Death Parade is even closer to their concept than Time of Eve.

Something set in a cafe with a diverse cast of characters? Why hasn’t anime ever thought to do that?

Re-rolled 3 times until I got a 5*, which ended up being Marth.

No Rakugo?

Marathoning all ~50 episodes of Chihayafuru seems appropriate for the New Year holiday.

They teamed up with Subaru (yes the car maker) to make a magical girl show!

The guys suing them are making that.

Since you liked Honey & Clover, March Comes in Like a Lion (Sangatsu no Lion) is from the same author & currently airing.

Gladion is just a chuuni

Nyanko-sensei could even join in with the drinking!

They’re def having fun with Exeggutor.

It’s just dust! Honest!

I’ve heard positive things about High School DxD, despite the fact all the promo material leads me to believe it’s about breasts and not much else.

Oh, that wasn’t a joke Tweet?

Bunch of things I might try out this season. Natsume S5, Yuri on Ice, March Comes in Like a Lion. Mayne Flip Flappers & Izetta?

Did you catch The Eccentric Family from a few years back? Same author as Tatami Galaxy, but done by PA Works, not Yuasa directed. There’s a sequel coming out soon.

Satoshi-Greninja would make even less sense to non-JP audiences
