2019: My Fourth Quarter in Anime

These three months just past began with me thinking they’d be a bit thin in attention-catching new anime series to watch streaming, but at the time I’d seemed willing to accept that change of pace, even with my list of “old titles linked to Macross” run through at last. In the first weeks of October, though, enough “last-moment additions” found their way onto my schedule I seemed to wind up as occupied watching anime, and finding interest in it, as ever.
( Looking well back: Mach Go Go Go and Attack No. 1 )

( Looking not so far back: A Certain Scientific Railgun )

( First streaming: Ascendance of a Bookworm and Azur Lane )

( More streaming: Legend of the Galactic Heroes Die Neue These and Gundam Build Fighters Re:Rise )

( The awaited addition: Chihayafuru 3 )

( Wrapping-up processes: Urusei Yatsura and The Rolling Girls )

2019: Journal in Review

We’ve eked ourselves through another year at least (enlivened by discussion of whether we’ve also finished a decade or not), and I’ve eked my journal through that same year. One extra thing I did mange this year was to add more “smart quotes” to my text, although looking back at the first sentence of the first post for each month does exude a strong impression of “anime weblog.”
( A year in twelve sentences )

See you in the new year!
