This week picks (still need to catch everything else )

1- Violet evergarden

Spoiler

2- sora yori mo tooi basho

3- 3-gatsu no lion

 

[Eternal Dragon Of ChaOZ]

Violet Evergarden

Spoiler

Wow that was brutal, first arm was lost from a single gun shot, then the 2nd just fell after after the explosion, very graphic stuff right there.

Violet almost had a complete mental breakdown, it was only a matter of time I suppose, learning the truth about the major would crush her heart.

That's Luculia's brother, I thought he looked familiar, look like he's in a better frame of mind.

That was pretty cool seeing those close to violet help her out and even write her letters.

That was awesome seeing everyone the Violet helped out at the end there, she changed all their lives for the better.

The level of feels in this episode definitely over 9000, great episode again.

Overlord

Spoiler

Now we know why the women were ending up that way, it was so satisfying seeing Sebas slap around and kill that fat bastard.

I didn't think Climb would win but I thought his efforts were very impressive.

Brain was cool to watch, made real short work of him.

I have a feeling Brain will run into Shalltear again at some point, but 1 thing I could see happening if that was the case is Stronoff being there at the same time and the name of Ainz being brought up and they might come to an understanding because of it.

Very interesting to see what happenes next between Ainz, Sebas & Solution.

Wow the princess has quite the personality(s) at least she care a lot about Climb.

Death March kara Hajimaru Kyousoukyoku

Spoiler

Satou made short work of them as expected.

Ah so Zen just wanted to be free from his cursed life, it was a sad backstory, hopefully now has had found peace.

Great escape and rescue in the end, very good thinking using fireball like that to help cross the ocean.

I had a feeling her would could her Nana as that is one way of saying Seven in Japanese.

We get to see a little bit of Satou & Zena again before he heads out on another adventure.

Honorable Mentions

Beatless

Spoiler

Hello Kitty, haven't seen any of those products around for a while, Erika has a lot of them due to her liking them a lot.

Ah so that was Erika with that hIE from last episode, Marriage lol, funny name but whatever suits her, either way she is another player in this game, not sure what he goal is yet.

Arato is in a tough spot right now, who know what Erika is up to plus he has Shiori to deal with as well, next episode looks very exciting.

Cardcaptor Sakura

Spoiler

Yes that is a very nice picture of Nedeshiko.

I would also like to try that omelette roll Sakura made.

Akiho is a very lively one.

Lol at Kero there giving a cold stare to Sakura, he wants them sweets.

After seeing those photos of the prince & princess I still think of the Sleeping Beauty play where the male & female spots were reversed for Sakura & Syaoran.

I just had to google search what Konjac is since neither of them like it, it's a Yam by the looks of it but is apparently good for us.

Nice to see Sakura use the roller skates again, almost saw them every episode in the original series.

The gravitation card was perfect for a place where you go sideways and upsides like that.

2 cards at the same time, that wasn't easy but Sakura & Kero worked well together to get them.

Darling in the FRANXX

Spoiler

I guess it's Christmas day there since they all get presents from Papa on that specific day.

I have a book about birds somewhere, got it years ago.

That was very nice of Hiro to give something to Zero Two.

2 impressive pieces of work by Goro, first confessing his love of Ichigo to Hiro & then helping her escape during the battle.

Yes those 2 really make a great team, good thinking there to blow it up from the inside.

I knew Goro would be able to give her the hair clip he made the moment I saw Ichigo lose hers when swimming toward him, he even told her his feeling.

This was a pretty good episode.

Mitsuboshi Colors

Spoiler

Pops is always such a badass in this show, he just grabs the coin without a single care in the world.

I am a little disappointed One-Coin Sat-Chan didn't have any interactions with Saito.

Evil overlord come down to earth and please run amok in our town.

Colonel Monochrome has traveled quite the distance, most cats I know just stick to a certain territory.

Yui looks fine without the pony tail.

Yui is the only one that can get to Kotoha, all she has to do is mention video games lol.

I wonder if we will actually see a scene of them opening the time capsule 10 years from now?

Toji no Miko

Spoiler

That opening scene with Yukari was very ominous.

I'm glad they all want to fight.

That is definitely the same sign that the great aradama is coming, just take a look at Yukari, she looks like a real monster now.

Hopefully the world listens to Akame, thought it might be too late even if they do, Yukari might be at full power by then.

Look at them all in those battle armors, next episode is going to be great for sure.
