Kaiseki Anime Podcast Episode 016 – Attack on Titan Season 3

My favorite part about this podcast is when we speculate on a cross between Attack on Titan and Kemono Friends continuations: Kemono Titans. Believe me, it’s a great idea. Joining us on this episode is KWoo (my spouse) for a one-of-a-kind, in-person recording.

Spring 2017 Season Wrap: Attack on Titan S2, Natsume’s Book of Friends S6, & The Royal Tutor


It’s never too late to try something new, and I thought this would be a good time to experiment with my end-of-season reviews. Usually, I bundle up all of the final thoughts into one or two gigantic posts. This means that the posts include shows that finished two or even three weeks apart in the season. Because of that, and the ridiculous length of some of the season wraps, I thought I’d try a weekly approach with, at most, three or four titles. Please let me know what you think of this format, along with your thoughts on the shows discussed in my posts!

Spring 2017 Set Menu

What have I gotten myself into? Don’t, just don’t, count the number of new shows I’ve picked up. It’s a bit ridiculous. It’s a lot ridiculous.

There are many wonderful sequels airing this spring, and I am also pleased with the amount of interesting new series. Below are my choices four weeks into the season. Let me know what you think of these shows, and to what you’re most looking forward!

Sakura-Con 2014

My first year to be an official registrant at the Seattle Sakura-Con, this is also the first convention I have attended with someone else by my side–while I do make a point to meet up with various blogger and Twitter friends at each convention, I have never traveled to and spent the majority of my time with one particular person. Thanks to KWoo for being my convention buddy!

As usual, I will be compiling all my thoughts and experiences into one massive blog post. Panel summaries will be arranged in order of attendance, with both questions and answers being paraphrased for conciseness. If you were present at any one of these panels and understood the questions or answers differently, please let me know. I’ve also placed the panels at the bottom due to their lengthiness.

Summer 2013 Set Menu

*GASP!* Choices, choices!

Is it just me, or are there a crap-ton of interesting shows this summer? I don’t think my menu has had this many entries in a single season for, well, ever. I thought I was doing pretty good clearing out my watching list with the close of the spring, but then I started trying out summer shows and found myself loathe to drop any of them. Most of them were an immediate “Yes” after just one episode, but we’ll see how many are still around midway through the season.

Menu overview:

  • Free!
  • Rozen Maiden: Zurückspulen
  • Senki Zesshou Symphogear G
  • Gen’ei wo Kakeru Taiyo
  • Tamayura: More Aggressive
  • Love Lab
  • Servant x Service
  • Silver Spoon
  • Stella Jogakuin Koutouka C3-bu
  • Watashi ga Motenai no wa Dou Kangaete mo Omaera ga Warui!
  • Fantasista Doll
  • Kiniro Mosaic
  • Uchouten Kazoku
  • Monogatari Series: Second Season
  • Genshiken Nidaime
  • Dog & Scissors
  • The World God Only Knows – Goddesses Arc
  • Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi
  • Brothers Conflict

Also included are some brief thoughts on backlogged shows and ongoing anime.

Spring 2013 Set Menu

Now that we’re five weeks into the spring season, I’ve finally settled down on which shows I’ll be sticking with, and have enclosed my thoughts on the anime of my choice to date.  Favorites so far include Shingeki no Kyojin, Hataraku Maou-sama!, and RDG. As usual, if you don’t see a show here that you think I really should be watching, let me know!

It took me longer than expected to choose since quite a few were impulse additions to what used to be a short list:

  • RDG: Red Data Girl
  • Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai
  • Sparrow’s Hotel
  • Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S
  • Devil Survivor 2 The Animation
  • Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru
  • Hataraku Maou-sama!
  • Shingeki no Kyojin
  • Valvrave the Liberator
  • Arata Kangatari
