Haikyuu and Golden Kamuy are the big standouts to me.

Sounds like I should try and make some time for Talentless Nana.

drat, that latest battle in Akudama Drive might be one of the best animated fight scenes this year.

Hmm, latest Elaina sure was... something.

Re: Elaina -- Why didn't the Lavender Witch just resolve to go back in time even further next attempt and steal the girl away as a baby before her Dad abused her and drove her insane? You even have the tools and know-how to do it! Sure, it'd take another decade of pooling your own blood but what's that when it comes to saving your best friend's life? Or you could, I dunno, just lose your temper because the story you thought was true was slightly wrong so you erase your own memories and kill your best friend out of spite. There was a sociopath this episode, and it wasn't Elaina. Oh well. At least this episode wasn't obnoxiously trite like episode 7 or episode 6. It's also morbidly funny reading reddit comments on the episode and seeing people pop up who are enthusiastically into the whole "never help people, it's a ton of work for nothing!" message this show seems intent on hammering home.

I thought she had died of her wounds when they got back or something. It was all very unclear.

I feel like the best way to describe this episode is "gratuitously grimdark". I wonder how the original LN handled it all.

Okay, Akudama pretty much had the perfect ending. Another good original series to recommend next time anyone asks.
