Whether we enjoyed them or not, the years we spend in the classroom are some of the most influential times of our lives. This is where we mature, being taught both from the lessons of others as well as from the mistakes of our choices. Koro-sensei's assassination classroom is no different, but unlike the mundanity of the daily routine we call school, watching the students of Class 3-E grow up and tackle the extraordinary challenges that face them was an absolute joy.
Ansatsu Kyoushitsu's second season continues the story of Class 3-E as they sharpen their skills in order to assassinate the yellow-tentacled teacher Koro-sensei.
...
While the first few episodes follow a similar format to the anime's first season—being a more episodic approach generally focusing on the individual students and how Koro-sensei teaches them—the second season seems to have a greater sense of focus. Having given most of the students their time to shine, the story instead focuses on the greater narratives of the classroom as a whole. Though I did enjoy the more disconnected tales of each student in the previous season, I believe that this stronger focus on the overarching plot makes this second season much stronger narratively than the first. For the most part, I feel that this season did a fantastic job on the execution of its story, though the second half is definitely a bit stronger than the first. Most importantly, as this season does reach the ending of the series, the climaxes of both the education and the assassination sides of the story were excellent; the former made a solid conclusion to two important rivalries, while the latter was so full of emotion that I was moved to tears. It was an extremely enjoyable ride, and I was enthralled almost every step of the way.
Unfortunately, I say almost because it wasn't perfect. The biggest flaw of Ansatsu Kyoushitsu's second season is in its pacing, specifically in the first quarter of the series. It is noticeably rushing to get to the meat of its story, and though thankfully it finds its groove by around the second quarter, it's a shame since some of the stories seem genuinely interesting; unfortunately, the time just isn't given to flesh it out and make it as good as it could have been.
While we're on the topic of flaws, the anime's other greatest weakness is in one of its villains, who comes across as fairly shallow and one-dimensional in his portrayal as a completely unlikeable character. This is only emphasized further in that the show's other villains bring with them a fair amount of depth and complexity to the narrative and that he is technically the "main villain" during the latter half of the series. Thankfully, by that point he's paired up with one of the more interesting antagonists, so it becomes a bit balanced out in the end. Though I've dedicated a whole section to these flaws, they actually weren't all that detrimental to my enjoyment of the show, since the former is dealt with fairly quickly, and then the latter takes a backseat to everything else going on.
In contrast to the shallowness of one of the antagonists, I really enjoyed the rest of the character work in Ansatsu Kyoushitsu. Though it doesn't spend each episode developing a different character like the first, the greater focus of the narrative allows it to spend more time on the six characters we're most familiar with, being the main student trio—Nagisa, Karma, and Kayano—and the three teachers—Karasuma-sensei, Bitch-sensei, and most importantly, Koro-sensei. One of the anime's greatest strengths is most definitely the focus on Koro-sensei's journey as a teacher as he comes to terms with the mistakes of his past, coming together with an extremely satisfying conclusion at the end. Moreover, the other five characters receive strong development as well, and I feel that this tighter focus on fewer characters has made Ansatsu Kyoushitsu's second season stronger in turn. But just because the focus is on these six doesn't mean the rest of the characters are ignored. Many of the other characters get their moments as well, and though some stand out more than others (as expected of a cast this large), none of them just get thrown completely under the rug. Outside of the classroom, some other characters shine as well, including Kunugigaoka's principal, his son, and an assassin that gives the class a run for its money. All in all, I really enjoyed the time I spent with most of the characters in this show, and I feel it did a pretty good job at balancing its cast in spite of its size.
Artistically, the show doesn't particularly stand out, but it does its job well. The animation from what I could tell was well done for the most part, lacking any serious dips in quality. In the same vein, the soundtrack, while lacking any particular track that completely stood out, did its job of enhancing the emotions during the scenes effectively. While there's nothing groundbreaking here, the show definitely isn't held back by any artistic faults, and it effectively uses both aspects to enhance the experience, rather than showcasing them in any way.
Ultimately though, just running through the different aspects of this show can't really say just how much I loved Ansatsu Kyoushitsu. In spite of its flaws, the way everything comes together to produce something so enjoyable is amazing. Watching these students grow up as they take on the seemingly impossible tasks in front of them is a thrill, and every plot thread has a satisfying ending to boot. An improvement from the first season in almost every way, the second season of [i]Ansatsu Kyoushitsu[/i] was a joy to experience, and just as they will for the students of Class 3-E, the teachings and antics of Koro-sensei will stay with me forever.

This is it, their grand return. While the past number of shows they’ve animated may not have quite hit the mark in terms of greatness, KyoAni has captured the magic of what made me fall in love with the studio in the first place with their newest work, Sound! Euphonium. What many brushed off as just a K-On! 2.0, Sound! Euphonium is one of the best anime that I have seen in a long time.
Sound! Euphonium follows the Kitauji High School Concert Band, a group that sounds fairly mediocre, and follows their journey as they grow both as musicians and as people in their
...
efforts to truly accomplish what they before just claimed as a pipe dream: make the nationals of the Kansai Band Competition. The story itself is fairly simplistic, but the real meat of it is focusing in on the journey that is walked to achieve their goals. The band must constantly overcome the internal conflicts that it faces as a result of being a collection of individuals, but watching them overcome these conflicts and grow as individuals as well as a group is what I believe to be a rewarding experience.
But of course, none of that matters if we don’t care about the individuals that make up the group in the first place. However, that’s one of what I believe to be the two things that really shine in this show that pushes it to be amazing. These characters feel real. They’re not one-dimensional drawings that the creators expect us to care about just because they’re there. They feel alive. Each character has depth to them in a way that makes it so that I can’t really describe them in just a few words. In particular, I think that Kumiko is probably one of the best main characters that KyoAni has put out there, putting her up there or above the heights of some of their best like Oreki or Kyon. She feels like a person that I could relate with, rather than some exaggerated caricature. She’s a little distant, but still a little lively. She’s a little self-conscious, but still a little confident. She’s not skewed so far in any one direction that makes her seem like, well, an anime character. The supporting cast all bring some depth to the table as well, with some standouts being Reina, Natsuki, Asuka, Taki-sensei, Haruka, and Kaori. And they’re not just there; they grow as well. From being distant to becoming a little more open, from being apathetic to lighting their passion, they all change, some a little, others more noticeably, and this really makes Sound! Euphonium stand out from the rest.
The other part of what I believe makes Sound! Euphonium stand out is the attention to detail. That goes for in the artwork, the sound, the direction, and all the little parts of the show, coming together to make this a beautiful work of art. KyoAni is known for having great animation, but this is probably the best they’ve put out. Every motion feels fluid and draws me in; the scenery and lighting are beautifully drawn and lit up or dimmed; and the background music or the lack thereof only serves that enhance the atmosphere. And then the camera work. The camera work really stands out in a way that enhances every scene, from focusing onto a specific point, or lightly moving around a whole scene. Two scenes in particular, in Episode 8 and Episode 12, just really stand above the rest in how these aspects are used and come together, and to me are some of the most outstanding scenes I’ve seen throughout the entirety of anime. All these little things come together to paint a work of art that really shines, and it is a beauty to behold.
And not just in those areas either; as a musician myself, I really appreciated the attention focused into the musical side of things. When the band first played, you didn’t have to just rely on the words of the characters to know they were bad. If you listened, you could tell they were bad. All the instruments were made with a polish and shine that made them look like real instruments, and when they were being played, they even used correct fingerings. As this is something that is usually overlooked in the majority of anime, the amount of detail that KyoAni put into the musical aspect is amazing. They also captured the essence of a high school band beautifully. While there of course were some differences as it was a club rather than a class, the amount of work that was put in, the internal drama that the band members faced, the conflicting attitudes of how hard the students want to work, and then the tension that precedes a performance and the excitement or disappointment that comes afterwards was captured in a way that really exemplified the high school band experience.
There are few loose ends that aren’t really tied up, mostly in the romantic department, just due to the nature of it being an adaption of a different work, but I don’t believe that to be any fault of the show itself, and they are easily overlooked when compared to everything else that is done great.
Many people believe KyoAni has fallen from grace, and whether or not that is true can be debated, but shows like Sound! Euphonium prove that KyoAni is still capable of creating works of art, and illustrate why some people have come to see this studio as one of the most capable out there. I only look forward to see what the studio has in store after bringing us a masterpiece like Sound! Euphonium.
Tl;dr: Great characters and attention to detail come together to provide a masterful work of art.

They say that when you fall in love, your whole world changes. The grey becomes colored, the dull becomes vivid, and the little moments become unforgettable ones. While there may be other stories that are written better or other productions that are animated better, Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso (Your Lie in April) struck a chord with me that I hadn’t felt with a show in a long time. Even with its flaws, I loved every moment of this show, both as a musician and as an ordinary viewer.
Shigatsu focuses on the journey of Arima Kousei, who was a brilliant pianist as a child,
...
but is now just a shell of his former self, haunted by the tragedies of his past. However, one day in April he meets Kaori Miyazono, the wild and unorthodox violinist, and that meeting sets off the beginning of Kousei’s journey as Kaori drags him out forcefully to confront himself. While there’s nothing especially groundbreaking about the premise, I felt it was executed in such a way that made the journey engaging and got me invested in the lives of the characters. The story’s lighthearted moments were very enjoyable, bar a bit of repetitiveness in the slapstick comedy, while the tragic moments made me sympathize and mourn alongside the characters. Some may say that the show was a bit overdramatic, but I’d have to disagree. The emotional plights that seem trivial to an outsider have much more weight to growing adolescents, and that is something I could definitely empathize with. On the other hand, the stress and despair that the musicians feel leading up to their performances may not be understandable to the casual player, but to those with a real investment in music, it is very real. I felt that the drama was well done and raised the tension in such a way that made the stakes at cost feel present. Also, I’m glad that they committed to their ending and didn’t kind of half-way attempt it but then turn tail because they were too afraid of committing *cough* Oreimo *cough*. It made the ending feel much more satisfying, which sadly is not the case for many shows.
One complaint that some might have with the show and that I’d be able to understand is that it’s a little heavy-handed. With an abundance of monologues containing flowery, Shakesperian-esque dialogue as well as not-so-subtle symbolism, it probably would’ve been to their benefit to have toned it down a little and made it a bit more subtle. While it might be too much for some, I personally didn’t really have too much of an issue with it, but it was noticeable. It could also be a little slow at times, but other than one especially noticeably repetitive episode, it wasn’t too big of a problem.
A part of the show that I enjoyed immensely was watching the musicians grow. From the climb out of despair in Kousei or just the small steps as a musician in the young Nagi, seeing all the musicians grow up on their own journeys both musically and emotionally was extremely satisfying to watch. The rest of the cast were a bit more stagnant, but they were still enjoyable characters nonetheless. Watari was a bit of the typical male best friend character and didn’t really grow through the series, but was still fun to watch. Tsubaki didn’t really grow much either for most of the series, but when the time came around where everyone realized just how fleeting time is, she was able to do more than just the typical childhood friend character, and I appreciated that. The characters felt like more than just two dimensional people, leading me to grow invested and care about their lives.
Now, there was some slight controversy surrounding the show, mostly involving Kaori’s forcefulness with Kousei, as well as Tsubaki and Watari to a lesser degree. While it’s certainly not going to be the same case for everybody, and there are probably hundreds of different methods that could have been used, I feel as though Kaori’s push isn’t as wrong as some people think. I may not have gone through the same circumstances that Kousei did, nor was my despair ever as great as his, but I think that I can empathize with Kousei’s mindset. And if it was me, I definitely would’ve needed to have had someone else push me, even if it hurt, to ever have a chance of finding a way out, so I feel as though the story’s take on the situation wasn’t wrong. Of course, some people may have different opinions, and I respect that, but that’s my personal take on the matter.
On the artistic side of things, it was a beautiful show to look at. The art style was pleasing, and the animation was mostly fluid; they also had some gorgeous stills too. The color palette changed to fit the emotions as well as the livelihood of a certain character, so that was a nice touch. There were times that the animation cut the corners a little in a way that you could tell, but it was never anything too prominent. The soundtrack was nice and fitting, with the everyday moments feeling pleasant while the dramatic ones being accentuated with the emotional music. I loved both OP’s, although Hikaru Nara edges it out slightly for me, while both ED’s fit nicely with the tone, with the second one more somber than the first to fit with the growing tragedy.
Of course, as a show about musicians, the performances had to be good. And they were absolutely amazing. The performances were extremely engaging, and after every single one, I noticed that I hadn’t moved an inch during the whole thing. They were animated beautifully, and the emotions in the music captivated me as a viewer. As a musician, watching these performances reignited a love for classical music I had forgotten for a long time, and it’s stirred me to expand my repertoire to more than just contemporary music. As a side note, I’m extremely glad that they finally didn’t have a violinist just flailing around the bow like they’re playing the music even though it doesn’t match what’s playing at all. As a former violinist it would grate my eyes whenever I saw that in a show, but thankfully this one avoids doing just that.
Maybe it’s just because I’m a teenager and a musician so I can relate with the characters, but this is a show that captivated me in a way that anime hasn’t done in a long time. While it may have had some flaws, the character journeys, the tragic moments alongside the lighthearted ones, the performances, and the energy of the show all just came together to create a show that was extremely enjoyable from beginning to end.
"Are you going to forget? Even if I die, I won't forget."
tl;dr – I liked it. A lot.

When Love Live! School Idol Project first aired in Japan, it became a hit sensation, captivating the hearts of many. The show was surprisingly good, with an enjoyable cast, entertaining songs, and a solid story. It was a massive success, and with its popularity came a second season. This might make some people feel anxious, thinking this to be a sell out for more money, but their worries can be put to ease; regardless of its intentions, I believe this second season to be even greater than the first time around.
Spoilers for the first season to follow.
Love Live! School Idol Project Second Season follows μ’s
...
as they get a second chance at the Love Live idol competition after their withdrawal from the first. Beyond that however, the girls are forced to look farther ahead and contemplate the future of μ’s as the third year’s graduation begins to rapidly approach. The story isn’t anything too original, but that’s overshadowed by the fact that it’s done well. Love Live!’s second season will make you laugh and feel good, but at the same time it can bring you to tears. There is a lot of emotion packed into its later episodes, and when the season comes to a close, you won’t want to see them go. The story is brought to a finish with an ending that wraps everything up nicely, making it a satisfying journey from beginning to end.
μ’s brings multiple main characters to the table, so there’s a guarantee you’ll love at least one of them, if not all of them. From genki girl Honoka to narcissistic Nico, there’s a lot of variety to be had. More important than that, however, is that the show still manages to bring some depth and development to these characters despite there being so many. The spotlight is given to the girls who weren’t featured during the first season, such as Nico and Rin, but development still continues for the others, such as in Honoka and Umi. Add to that some nice side characters like all the imoutos, as well as some actual presence from the rival idol group A-RISE, not to mention those amazing alpacas, and it is clear that the show does a wonderful job with its loveable cast.
Of course, this being an idol show and all, the music is a major component of this show, and I feel it doesn’t fail in this regard. The OP and ED are pretty good, matching the feel of the series quite well. The insert songs are really the standout though, with a mood and lyrics that depict the moments of the show magnificently. My favorite of the bunch definitely has to be “Snow Halation”; when it is being sung, I had shivers going down my spine. Of course, the rest of the bunch is great too, such as “Aishteru Banzai”, “Love & Peace”, and even a return of the opening of the first season, which is tied in nicely. The soundtrack is pretty great as well fitting the mood nicely and bringing the tension and emotion when it needs to be brought. Overall, the music of the series is great, as it should be.
The character designs are all nice to look at, and there’s probably going to be a design that you love because of the massive cast. The animation runs smoothly for the most part, and can be pretty beautiful at times as well, such as during the performance of the aforementioned “Snow Halation”. One problem that I did have with this show, however, is the CG that is used during the song performances. It is pretty jarring and takes away from what would otherwise be beautiful scenes. Thankfully, the usage of the CG has decreased and the quality has increased slightly from the last season, so it wasn’t as bad as before, but I still wasn’t a big fan of it. Other than that though, this is quite a beautiful show to look at.
All in all, this was a very entertaining show to watch. Even with the bothersome CG, watching the girls of μ’s working to win the Love Live and performing their songs was a wonderful experience. This second season made me fall in love with μ’s even more than the first season had. Anyone who liked the first season will definitely love this; even if you didn’t, I feel as though the second season was a great step up from the first, so you might still enjoy it. While the story is brought to a close for now, I can’t wait to see what the Love Live! series has in store for us next.
Ready?
μ’s music start!!

The World God Only Knows is well known for its different take on the harem genre. The main character, Keima, is out to make girls fall in love with him at first to save his own head, but later for more important reasons. It contrasted greatly with the common stereotypical harem series that had an oblivious main character with girls that were head-over-heels in love with him. However, the Goddess Arc, for which this third season is based off of, is the story arc that propelled this series from something fresh and interesting to something that really became something special. While this anime adaptation has
...
a few flaws, The World God Only Knows: Goddesses is mostly able to carry the manga's greatness with it, and rise to become the best TWGOK series yet.
This third season follows Keima as he searches to find the goddesses who are residing in the hosts of his previous conquests, and has to make them fall in love with him all over again in order to bring out their power to fight back against Vintage, a group from Hell that wishes to revive Old Hell. The story is great, with the individual conquests mostly being very well done. The humor, drama, and romance from the previous seasons are back, and make the conquests as enjoyable as ever. This arc also really brings forward the lore that has slowly been presented through the last two seasons about Hell and presents an interesting tale involving it as well. The last conquest, the Mai High Festival Arc, is especially great, as it really raises the bar with a great story that unfolds, with interesting twists, higher stakes, and hilarious and heart-wrenching moments, as well as bringing about a great climax and resolving the Vintage conflict.
However, a couple of problems do arise from the way they decided to adapt this arc. For some reason they decided to adapt this arc without first adapting the remaining normal conquests in between the second and third season. They also expect you to have watched both OVAs (Tenri Arc and 2-B Pencils) beforehand. As such, it rushes the pacing on the two conquests based on girls not seen before, trying to cram in the details of the previous conquests, as well as it being a little confusing for those who haven't read the manga or seen the OVAs, although it isn't too big of a problem because most people should catch on fairly quickly. Another issue is that the amount of content they are trying to fit into 12 episodes some 80 chapters, while the previous seasons had nearly one chapter per episode. This does cause the pacing to be a little quick in the beginning, such as the prep for the Goddess arc as well as the two conquests mentioned previously. However, I do want to give props to the director Satoshi Osedo for being able to fit all this material and still make it fairly reasonably paced. Other than the issues mentioned before, this anime does very well with pacing, and did pretty well trying to work around the problems it had no control over (like the skipping of conquests). I think it is reasonable to say that it even has better pacing than the original series, which dragged on especially in some parts (the buggy game episode and Shiori's arc come to mind). Overall, these issues aren't really that big of an issue, but since I love this series so much I have to nitpick at a couple things. This issue really goes away after the Tsukiyo arc, as it doesn't even bother the Yui arc that badly, but it is there for a little while.
The characters are definitely one of the greatest things to come out of The World God Only Knows. Keima is awesome as always, but this series takes it even further than before. This arc really starts to develop and change his character, as the stakes are raised higher and he really starts to see the consequences of the way he goes about his conquests. He also starts to take things much more seriously, beginning to see that it's not a game anymore, most notably seen as how he is missing his iconic PFP for most of the season, and doesn't even really touch a game other than at the beginning and the very end. He starts to begin feeling the emotional consequences of the conquests on himself as well as on the girls. Besides Keima though, Haqua also receives decent development during this season as well, going from the naive, rule-abiding girl she is to a more mature and stronger leader, fighting back against Vintage. The other characters in this season are great as well, with seven of the better girls returning (or showing up for the first time) for Keima's conquests, as well as Tenri/Diana and the Hell members like Nora, Lune, and Elsie. All of them are pretty interesting and enjoyable to watch on screen. This cast of characters, alongside the star-studded voice cast, really is one of the greatest parts of this show.
The art of this show is pretty good but not as great as it could be. The character designs are great as always, but the animation quality doesn't always follow suit. Manglobe has never really been known for the best animation, so its expected that they aren't going to suddenly be on KyoAni level animation for this show, but it still is a little bothersome. By no means is it bad, it just isn't as great as it could have been, with a few blips in the art every once in a while. Other than that though, the art is pretty good. It's saying something when the weakest point isn't really all that weak. The music is well done as always. The soundtracks help to accent the mood in the moment, whether it be the climax of a conquest or a moment of despair. The opening is also probably one of my favorites this season, and probably ties with first season for the best TWGOK. Saori Hayami sings beautifully as always, and produces a great opening. The closing songs are pretty good as well, although not as good as the opening. "The Memory of My First Love" (Hajimete Koi wa Shita Kioku) is probably one of the best, as the lyrics really fit the mood of the last episode, and Saori Hayami's "With... You..." is a notable mention as well. Overall, the music and art of this season are pretty good, even with a few flaws.
If you couldn't tell, I really like this season of The World God Only Knows. Despite a few flaws, it is definitely my favorite of the three and would definitely recommend it to anyone who has seen the first two. In a way it is like The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya, as you need to see the previous seasons for it to make sense, but it is the best of the them all. I enjoyed this show greatly, with a great story, humor, and characters, and it resparked my love of the series after the slow down in the manga (although it has picked up since then). Hopefully Manglobe will find some way to animate the missing conquests, but if not, so be it. This was a great season. Anyone who loves The World God Only Knows should check this show out, and for all fans, as Keima says:
"I Can See the Ending."

Everyone views the world in a different colored light. Our shade is affected by our upbringing, our culture, our religion, our language, and a variety of other factors. However, when our color mixes in with another color, then the light in which we view the world in changes dramatically, as yellow mixing with blue makes green. It allows us to see things that we have missed before, and makes us question the things that we've always believed. Silver Spoon pushes Hachiken Yugo into a completely new world, and changes the hue of his view as well as ours in this story.
Written by Hiromu Arakawa of
...
Fullmetal Alchemist fame, she writes a story on something that would have been completely overlooked and unappreciated if not for her name, a story about farming, which would have been a complete shame. Based off of her past in growing up on a farm, it is a completely different story from her most famous work, with a completely different tone, but is yet another amazing work.
The story follows city boy Hachiken Yugo as he enrolls in agricultural school for personal reasons, and his cultural shock and adjustment entering into this completely new world. The story is set in a slice-of-life format, with an almost "plotless" feel to it, just following Hachiken and his friends' life in agriculture, showing things from rounding up chickens to chasing tractors to cooking pizza. Despite seeming like this would be a negative, it actually ends up being a very effective way to present the story, as it gives you a feel for their everyday lives and everything they go through and enjoy. The show also muses on some subtle philosophical aspects that make you sit back and think, and makes it more than just your everyday slice-of-life show.
The characters are definitely one of the strongest points of this show, and it really helps this show to be an enjoyable and personal one. Hachiken is sort of like an avatar for the viewer, a foreigner looking into this new world. He gets sick when they cut off chicken's heads, he gets overly attached to farm animals destined to be food, and is bewildered by this completely different way of life. We also slowly start to see throughout the show the growth of his character as he adapts to this new world and starts seeing things in a different light. All the other characters are interesting as well, from the hilarious Tamako to the strong and caring Komaba, it's always fun to watch their lives and personalities come alive and how they interact with one another. They also have their own dreams they're chasing and goals they want to reach, and it just makes them more personal than characters who are just there as devices rather than people.
The art in this show is pretty good, animated well. From what I could tell it was pretty fluid most all the time. The character designs are also pretty clean and weren't a distraction. One thing I thought the art did really good on though was making the food look delicious, causing your mouth water. Whether it was egg and rice or pizza, somehow it just makes your stomach grumble even though you ate like an hour ago. The music was also pretty good, supplementing the scenes well. The ED fit well with the show too, having the country feel to it. The OP was alright, but in my opinion, it had kind of a subdued feeling to it that I didn't really like, but that's just my feeling, it's still a pretty good OP. The sound and music really help supplement the show's feeling and dynamic across and fit well.
Overall, this show was a lot of fun to watch. From the eye-opening views on the farm world to thought-provoking conversations to hilarious moments, this show on farming had my attention in a way I never thought it would. The premise seems strange, but it was a surprisingly enjoyable watch. Despite seeming slow paced like a normal slice-of-life show would, it still felt like the episodes went by in 5 minutes, a testament to how much it absorbs you into its world. While when this first was announced I was only slightly interested, I'm definitely looking forward to when part two comes out in the winter. Give this show a chance; it may not seem like your kind of show, but is definitely a lot greater than it seems.
