Still waiting on dt to talk about the latest episode of Senko-san and its fluffiness.

Sarazanmai ep 2. I understood that reference.
Anyway, its themes become a bit clearer with this ep. This show (I think) seems to be about connecting people with weird desires and secrets that can’t be understood by many others on a surface level, the connection being we’re all fucking weird and damaged. There’s even a pair of police officers who police people’s desires, and they appear to be the villains. (From a meta perspective, the similarities to the anime community are probably not on purpose but it’s there.)
There’s probably more at stake here than just secret fetishes, with the drugs and the waterboarding and the Instrumentality scene. Also, the butt stuff is actually part of the central conceit and the stock footage, so it’s gonna probably be in every ep. This one’s gonna be weird, but it seems like it has something to say.
Carole and Tuesday ep 2. The characters have already shown to own multiple outfits. This is truly a landmark anime.
For real, the level of cynicism towards algorithms defining art is actually reaching a level that strains my suspension of disbelief. It’s like it was written by a conspiracy theorist. At least Angela was there to add some contrast to those scenes.
The main characters feel very accessible and relatable. Really excellent bonding between the two this ep. I liked how they forced themselves onto the stage, and then got chased away by the police. Didn’t think the characters or the show be that brazen, at least not this early. I suppose it’s a matter of the taste, but I feel like the warmth in CandT’s music is quite palpable, certainly compared to the presumably AI-generated music. This has been a lot of fun but, objectively, the show would benefit from being a little more subtle.

Hitoribocchi ep 3. Still pretty fucking perfect. As cute and sympathetic as Bocchi is, Nako is the one who is making this show work for me. She tells Bocchi just what she needs to hear, but isn’t too easy on her and actually pushes her to grow. This show really gets it, and its got the visual execution to match.
Fruits Basket ep 3. Momiji and Kagura appear. They go more into the conflict between Yuki and Kyo. I’m still loving this, althought objectively, I can see how this might feel dated to someone who isn’t nostalgic for its ideas.
Senryuu Shoujo ep 3. I’m quite surprised this is turning out to be a romance anime, and it’s a pretty decent one. Guy is too dense, though.

Re: Hitoribocchi: I have to agree with you and, to be honest, I really am enjoying Nako as a character too, while I do like Bocchi, Nako is really making this show and I love how she and Aru bounce off each other too, they have a pretty amusing, if not fun dynamic with each other.
