    It’s been a busy week for me this past week. I have managed to keep up with the shows I have been watching, but haven’t really been able to post about them as much. So, here are some quick thoughts on this past week’s episodes:

    • 100 Girlfriends - I can’t help but love how insane and self-aware this series is. They do a great job of adapting the meta-jokes from the manga to anime meta-jokes.
    • Apothecary Diaries - I have no idea where this story with the envoys is going, but this show has proven itself capable of building a satisfying plot, so I am content to wait and see where its going.
    • Guild Receptionist - Is it just me or does this show seemed aimed at [email protected] enjoyers sometimes with the camera angles on Alina. It’s been a fun show though.
    • Welcome to Japan, Miss Elf - This has been a really satisfying if unexceptional show. One of the rare isekai that travels back and forth between worlds a lot.
    • Bureaucrat to Villainess - I really like the addition of the wife and daughter to the cast, they are great. However, it does mean that we see the same scene from multple POVs a lot and it feels like it is dragging a bit.
    • Ameku M.D. - This past week wrapped up an arc and it was…lit. Well, it was alright. It was at least the most interesting mystery the show has done yet. My biggest complaint is that it really isn’t a medical mystery anymore though, just a pretty normal whodunit.
    • My Happy Marriage - I’ve really enjoyed this season a lot so far. I am hoping that it can keep things going instead of taking a turn that I hated like final couple episodes of season 1.

      Um… duh?

      It doesn’t even take unusual camera angles - that skirt is like a neon sign that says “Look here ⬇️”
