I'd really like to know why they are invading Tuskuru too. At this point I'm easily cheering for Tuskuru to defend their invasion. + Show Spoiler +The emperor wants access to the lab in Tuskuru. Tuskuru obviously doesn't like this because of all the shit with Hakuoro.

Even after Takumi was like 'Don't you go picking any fights' LOL. Interesting turn though, good to know we're getting back into the food soon.

5 more episodes until I finish Ranma. Going to be quite a sad day afterwards lol. + Show Spoiler +I do wish we get a close moment or two (nothing overboard) in the last couple of episodes. I mean, latest episode I watched, we had Ranma confess that he loves Akane because he was doing the cheerleading martial arts until he realized it's her. So, while she's blushing like mad, he tried to deny it as usual lol. Rumours only last for 75 days after all Given, this will probably last till the final episode where they'll both finally just confess their love for each other as is typical.

Was thinking of starting Kimagure Orange☆Road but I can't stand the odd VAing. Could just be the video I watched though, but lots of pauses and subs are a bit late. Though I do have to say that I kinda like Hikaru from the bits I saw lol.
edit: decided to watch Date a Live. Hope I'm not making a mistake lol

Don't expect anything too serious from Date a Live. I liked it, though.

I haven't watched the anime but I have read all the LNs that are currently translated. Battle harem series basically. Touka and Kurumi ftw but the series doesn't have the Yamai sisters until season 2

So Rakugo will be half flashback half present time?
8 eps into Yozakura (means the first row of OVAs is next in line): It's ok so far but I'm not amazed.

Grimgar EP5. + Show Spoiler +Mary seems like a much needed acquisition to that slow noob party. Another slow episode, but it was expected after the death, and it's not even really solved so I doubt they'll get much stronger very soon. I always felt like the group is awkward, zero team work also because the members aren't even talking with each other (at least the girls with the boys) and since they have no aims they're just doing whatever. This episode was a start in terms of character interactions (at least Haruhiro and Yume seemed quite friendly this episode, but those two were some of the closest anyways), but it's probably gonna take a while until it'll all are friendly with Ranta. >.< All in all the episode was quite decent though, because I like Yume.
And holy shit, Schwarzesmarken EP 5 was an awesome watch. Nice action.
EDIT: For the people that watched World Trigger but skipped the filler arc like me: World Trigger is canon again since the 2nd half of episode 64, but the pacing is rather slow because it's close to the manga.

Grimgar#5 ya man...wtf this is just too much at this stage lol...should i call this characters development or overly anti-mainstream plot device lol

Thanks for letting us know about WT. I haven't watched an episode in weeks now.
Also, for Grimgar: + Show Spoiler +Don't forget guys that Manato was the main person holding the group together, as in, he was their middle man in a way so even though communication was poor at times, he held everything together which is why the group is all over the place now that he passed away.
Honestly, I don't think they are that unfriendly with each other. I mean, in a previous episode on the bridge, he just finished telling them how things were developing well between them and had a lot of positive feedback during the previous episode before he died. They were working together and getting goblin kills as a team. Also, while Ranta can be a hard person to deal with, overall, I think he's somewhat improved in teamwork like everyone else. Yume has already talked to most of the guys before so the hardest thing would be to get Shihoru to talk with the guys, especially Ranta due to his personality.
I feel like the pacing of the anime is pretty reasonable overall and I do like the art style and story. Hopefully we'll see them come together next episode and get along with Mary. One of my favourite anime this season.

+ Show Spoiler [Grimgar 05] +New priest girl is soon soon dairy soon dairy soon soon~
The contrast between the two party groups is nice. The show is focusing on what its like to be in a dysfunctional group in the game-rpg-fantasy genre. If you want to see what the other group is like, I'm sure there are other animes out there that covers that content.
Also. Y U M E B O Y S
Also, we now got a 1:1 ratio in boys and girls. Let the not-so-subtle love-hexagon commence.

Finished watching Ranma: + Show Spoiler +guess there was no way they would ever finish off the show with some kind of love confession. Makes sense considering it's not in Ranma's personality but still, got my hopes dashed lol. Aside from that, really enjoyed the anime overall. Comedy was great and I loved all the characters. One of my favourite anime so far. Dang, I'm certainly going to miss it but at least the manga seems to go on for much longer so got that to look forward to. 10/10 recommended, must watch imo

Damn, Schwaresmarken was hype this week! It reminded me a lot of the Battle of Sadogashima in the VN! And we finally got some more Yukarin after the credits, too.

Enjoying Grimgar a fair bit. Seems a lot more realistic when it comes to the regular people transported to a fantasy world genre. Reminds me in some ways of the old fantasy novels Guardians of the Flame in that way.

It still manages to be fantasy, though, a bit more than the somewhat gritty Guardians.

It's one of the anime I look forward to because it does feel quite realistic especially with the recent episode. I'm mostly just stating what some other people's views are on it.
