The season has concluded. I review the shows discussed in my previous blog post after the split.

Lazarus -- really underwhelming, but about what I expected from a netflix anime. A season 2 could maybe redeem this series but I'm not interested in watching one and I don't feel it's getting one. 5/10

Gorilla no Kami -- the main character was cute and the basic premise was okay, but it's ultimately pretty forgettable. There's nothing it really does well. The story was kind of lame too. 6/10

Shoushimin Series, s2 -- compared to s1 there was a lot more going on! I enjoyed season 1 but felt like it was a bit lacking. The second go was really fun to watch. Characters grew, new scenarios were resolved in satisfying ways. 8/10

Sentai Daishikkaku, s2 -- I really liked season 1 of this show. Season 2 was even better! I can't wait for season 3! 8/10

Kanpekisugite Kawaige -- pretty much everything I said the previous entry still holds true. If you really miss Frieren, this may scratch that itch, but it was pretty hollow and very forgettable. Too many worn-out cliches. 6/10

Your Forma -- dropped. 2/10

Nazotoki wa Dinner no Ato -- this show actually grew on me a bit. It was better than some of the recent detective shows. The main characters are pretty annoying but their dynamics work well, and the mysteries are fun to see solved. 7/10
