Well this week marks the end of a handful of shows as the season starts to draw to a close, and we go without the cartoons for a couple weeks for the holiday and new year. Tonight, we take a look at Kyoukai no Kanata, Outbreak Company, and Yuushibu. Even with as lackluster as this season was, they ended on fairly decent notes, amidst some criticism. Let’s do it to it.

Approaching the Christmas season, I have to deal with three major things each year:
Of course this means my time allocated towards chinese cartoons and other such tomfoolery will be limited, but I hope to ride out the end of this season’s shows with minimal fanfare. But I may release some reviews early before the show ends. Hell, I could release them right now really. I doubt there will be a TWIST.
Anyway, here are a few highlights of what I found relevant this week.
…
It’s been quite a while since I last wrote, and part of that is because I had better (read nothing) things to do, but also because this season frankly did not grab me by the horns as rough as I thought it might. Many of the shows started strong, but fizzled out halfway through and just left me kind of watching when I got around to it. I’ve even fallen behind on episodes of some shows, like Coppelion and Golden Time, because they would fall to the bottom of the priority list.
So for this week, we’re going to rank-and-file my watch list this season and I’ll throw out a bit about what I think, even if I am not on the current episode.
…
Three weeks into the new season, and most shows hold steady, for the most part. I’ve begun to sort of rank and file things into what I watch sooner than other shows, and consequently I am leaving
some shows unwatched due to having other things to do. Such is the life of a regular person with a regular job trying to hold on to the glory of chinese cartoons every week.
This week I’m going to touch on Kill la Kill, Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio, Non Non Biyori, Outbreak Company, Kyoukai no Kanata, and Freezing: Vibration.
