In retrospect, the accumulated baggage of the past did me no favours in this one, because the main question was if KyotoAni washes away the dull taste of Tamako Market. I haven't seen Hyouka yet, but it, too, was called "the most boring anime in history". Amagi Brilliant Park is …

After years of being content with licensing (mostly) rubbish, FUNi chose to strike on the streaming front this year. I know at least of 3 shows that they put up at Hulu: Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai, Madan no Ou to Vanadis, Ore, Twintail ni Narimasu. The latter two were announced at …
