and that wraps up fall 2025's anime! on a whole just a supremely lackluster season, with gnosia the only series managing to really stand out in a positive way. here's hoping next season's a little better!

heard enough buzz that I'll probably peep that tojima kamen rider show in the season gap tho

happy homo holidays!

and behold, my top 10 anime of 2025
2025 ANIME TOP 10 [broadly accessible recs] Ao no Hako (Blue Box) rock solid romance/sports show. just really, really good all around Ballpark de Tsukamaete! (Catch Me at the Ballpark!) incredibly genuine ensemble workplace comedy/drama. does not look good pretty much ever but every little intertwining storyline is just absolutely lovely Chi. Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite (Orb: On the Movements of the Earth) orb! I bounce off nearly everything even vaguely historical flavored and I was enthralled with this one from start to finish Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku (The Fragrant Flower Blooms With Dignity) another super solid romance. cute as hell Maebashi Witches this one kinda treads the line between accessible and spicy due to the weird idol/magical girl/tourism outfit it's wearing, but underneath that is some of the most empathetic, heartfelt writing and characterization of anything that aired this year. must watch Medalist not terribly well made most of the time but a very uplifting and encouraging sports story about chasing your dreams at your own pace and not falling victim to "but they did it faster than me :(" syndrome 2025 ANIME TOP 10 [broadly accessible recs] Silent Witch: Chinmoku no Majo no Kakushigoto (Secrets of the Silent Witch) everyone loves the terrified autism squirrel Takopii no Genzai (Takopi's Original Sin) content warnings out the wazoo but if you're in the right headspace to handle something this heavy, it's an absolutely fantastic story about cycles of abuse [spicy recs] Akuyaku Reijou Tensei Ojisan (From Bureaucrat to Villainess: Dad's Been Reincarnated!) you kinda need to be deep enough in the otaku swamp to be familiar with the fake genre "villainess" tropes and other game-y isekai nonsense it's riffing on to fully appreciate this, but it's an absolute joy if you can. it's earnest and genuine in a way so many of its predecessors simply aren't interested in being, and funny as hell at that Apocalypse Hotel deeply weird, frequently crude, and misses its swings as often as it hits, but still manages to be super charming. its peaks are just that high Food Court de, Mata Ashita. (See You Tomorrow at the Food Court) it's literally just two girls chatting over food for six episodes. not so secretly the spiciest recommendation on the list GNOSIA I don't like recommending something that hasn't finished airing yet but the last few episodes have been so outrageously strong I can't *not* encourage you to give it a shot. from the moment it was announced, I was convinced there was no way the adaptation could possibly be any good, and I've been proven wildly wrong at basically every step 2025 ANIME TOP 10 [spicy recs] Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu (The Summer Hikaru Died) trauma, loss, love, and a little bit of horror/mystery mixed in Necronomico and the Cosmic Horror Show wildly creative original anime ostensibly about washed up vtubers playing haunted video games against lovecraftian horrors and actually about the ways broader society expects gay people to acceptably perform their homosexuality and how about fuck that Ruri no Houseki (Ruri Rocks) don't let the horny veneer fool you. this is first and foremost a series about the joy of discovery and getting off your ass and *learning*, a wonderfully relevant message in the current [waves] Shiunji-ke no Kodomotachi (The Shiunji Family Children) for the incest lovers. *fantastically* well made trash. Watashi wo Tabetai, Hitodenashi (This Monster Wants to Eat Me) it has no animation and even less direction, but the writing is so incredibly strong it still ends up being wildly compelling week by week. japanese mythology-flavored trauma centered around a trio of girls, none of whom are equipped to deal with the messes they either caused or found themselves in 2025 ANIME TOP 10 [sequels, you already know what you're getting here] BanG Dream! Ave Mujica Dr. STONE S4 Kusuriya no Hitorigoto S2 Re:ZERO S3 (second cours) Shangri-La Frontier S2 (second cours) Shoushimin Series (second cours) Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru S2 Tensei shitara Dainana Ouji Datta node, Kimama ni Majutsu wo Kiwamemasu S2 Yofukashi no Uta S2

That's right. It's time for part 3 of the FPS series; this time, a lot of assorted thoughts on what makes for good enemy design. This one was fun as hell to write.

and finally, now that I've watched fucking everything, it's time for the summer 2025 anime first impressions roundup!

so much shit airing that there's literally no room for anything else without splitting into multiple posts
SUMMER 2025 [sequels] Dr. STONE SCIENCE FUTURE (second cours) SCIENCE, part 17 [subs: good] Grand Blue S2 naked people, the anime [subs: great] Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun S2 (second cours) hope it's better than the first cours [subs: pretty good] Kaijuu 8-gou S2 kaijus [subs: good] Kakkou no Iinazuke S2 would that we could have a universe where yamada-kun got a billion episodes instead of this, but c'est la vie. [subs: kinda jank in places, missing an entire line?] Kanojo, Okarishimasu S4 yesssssss [subs: great] New PANTY & STOCKING with GARTERBELT in terms of ways this show could have come back, that was probably the worst option. 2/10 [subs: baaaaad. so focused on cramming as much profanity into the script as possible they forgot to perform basic editing or TLC] Princess-Session Orchestra (second cours) it's not bad but not as exciting as I would've liked for a Team Symphogear production [subs: N/A] Puniru wa Kawaii Slime S2 regularly scheduled furry propaganda [subs: pretty good] Seishun Buta Yarou wa Santa Claus no Yume wo Minai hope you're ready to cry [subs: aniplex bad bad bad. aniplus deeeeeecent] Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru S2 absolutely fantastic [subs: great] Summer Pockets (second cours) kill me now [subs: ehhhhh, not great] Tensei shitara Dainana Ouji Datta node, Kimama ni Majutsu wo Kiwamemasu S2 super OP magic reincarnation, for shotacons [subs: good] Uchuujin MuuMuu (second cours) cats are evil, humans are horny. weird show [subs: N/A] Yofukashi no Uta S2 I love, the color purple [subs: pretty good] SUMMER 2025 [new shows] 9-nine- Ruler's Crown mediocre supernatural mystery visual novel. better than summer pockets? [subs: N/A. machine translation on a Chinese streaming site] Ame to Kimi to super chill slice of life with a pet. phenomenal vibes show [subs: very good] Busamen Gachi Fighter I admire its dedication to being Extremely Fucking Stupid even if it's ultimately not very good [subs: decent] Clevatess decently interesting fantasy [subs: okay] Food Court de, Mata Ashita. one of the better iterations of the "girls talking" genre. sad it's only six eps [subs: good] Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu great stuff [subs: netflix, pretty good] Isekai Mokushiroku Mynoghra cozy slice of life about reincarnating into an RTS game and roleplaying one of the faction leaders [subs: ehhh] Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku super pleasant little romance show [subs: deeeecent. except for the part where it's five days late on netflix] Mattaku Saikin no Tantei to Kitara not every joke lands and it'll probably get stale by around episode 3 but watchable enough [subs: decent] Necronomico and the Cosmic Horror Show the concept of a bunch of D-tier streamers playing haunted fall guys against cthulhu is amusing enough [subs: cygames fed the raw video into chatgpt and it's exactly as fucking bad as that sounds. nearly every line is wrong or mishears something or spits out garbled voice recognition output or completely makes shit up -> replaced with actual human subs two days later] Ruri no Houseki horniest show about rock(s) I've seen in a hot minute [subs: very good] Silent Witch - Chinmoku no Majo no Kakushigoto simple but nice [subs: aniplex impressively bad. aniplus pretty solid] Takopii no Genzai incredibly well made misery [subs: good] Turkey! gohands director without the gohands does a meme gimmick sports series [subs: pretty good] SUMMER 2025 [new shows] Utagoe wa Mille-Feuille the perfect inversion of last season's rock lady. not-rich girls at a not-rich school doing music in not-secret without any instruments at all [subs: N/A] Watashi ga Koibito ni Nareru Wake Nai jan, Muri Muri! uninteresting dynamic, stupid premise, annoying characters, unfunny, nothing lands. the comedy is bad enough, but the character writing driving it is even worse [subs: bad. gtfo remow] Yuusha Party wo Tsuihou sareta Shiro Madoushi, [...] extremely standard fare banished from the hero's party because I'm so good at buffing they don't realize they're useless without me narou [subs: decent] [dropped] [3 eps] Mizu Zokusei no Mahoutsukai classic narou isekai writing except the protag's apparently youtube-brained in addition to being webnovel-brained [subs: decent] [2 eps] Futari Solo Camp okay at best. both of the characters are kinda fucking annoying tho? [subs: ehhh not great] [2 eps] Game Center Shoujo to Ibunka Kouryuu designs are cute but an entire season of amaki sally reciting jank english in a british accent for a japanese audience will break my brain [subs: good] [2 eps] Kamitsubaki-shi Kensetsuchuu. very confused mixed media thing [subs: okay] [2 eps] Koujo Denka no Kateikyoushi terribly written fantasy webnovel about seducing children with pretty magic [subs: pretty good] [2 eps] Mikadono Sanshimai wa Angai, Choroi. quints clone #7159 that primarily distinguishes itself by being fucking terrible [subs: great] [2 eps] Onmyo Kaiten Re:Birth Verse conceptually functional but the script is utter fucking *ass* and the protag is a real bad kind of no-brain-activity punchy boy [subs: decent] [2 eps] Tougen Anki edgy shounen battle momotaro. the protag uses guns made of gore. hits all the worst one-note over-expository zero-brain-cell shouty boy shounen tropes [subs: decent-ish] [2 eps] Tsuihousha Shokudou e Youkoso! is it possible to have negative originality [subs: good] SUMMER 2025 [dropped] [2 eps] Tsuyokute New Saga brainless slideshow narou reincarnation fantasy [subs: decent] [2 eps] Zutaboro Reijou wa Ane no Moto Konyakusha ni Dekiai sareru a C-tier clone of one of the precisely three narou stories for girls that ever get made into anime. too distracted by the radioactive hair to take seriously [subs: okay] [1 ep] Bad Girl super unfunny 4koma with bonus terrible vibes at how often the idea of being gay is the punchline to those bad jokes [subs: good] [1 ep] Busu ni Hanataba wo. C-tier shoujo romance. there's better stuff airing this season [subs: not terribly good] [1 ep] CITY the Animation that was beautiful and I hated every second of it [subs: mediocre] [1 ep] Dekin no Mogura dunno what I watched but I didn't like it [subs: decent] [1 ep] Gachiakuta like spending half an hour locked in a 14-year-old's brain [subs: decent] [1 ep] Hotel Inhumans interesting idea, terrible execution [subs: okay] [1 ep] Kizetsu Yuusha to Ansatsu Hime ugly, unfunny, has one joke [subs: decent] [1 ep] Kizu darake Seijo yori Houfuku wo Komete another saintess thing but as a super discount half-sized flash anime [subs: N/A] [1 ep] Nukitashi can't be explicit so the horny is superficial, poorly made set dressing that it spends so long drowning you in that it doesn't even approach having an idea until the last 30 seconds and by that point I'm just bored [subs: okay-ish. assume most of the flavor comes from the VN translation. pretty rough, insufficient editing, skips almost all important on-screen text] [1 ep] Nyaight of the Living Cat it's a shitpost cat-zombie apocalypse [subs: decent] [1 ep] Watari-kun no xx ga Houkai Sunzen that fucking sucked! [subs: meeeeeeeediocre]
