  • Fune o Amu

    Posted on December 27, 2016 3:16 pm by Offkorn Comment

    Just before the main editor of the Genbu Shobo publishing company’s dictionary department retires, he takes the unusual step of recruiting Mitsuya Majime from the sales department as his replacement. While Mitsuya does not have much in the way of social skills, he makes up for it with a deep understanding and love of word usage.

    A serious working-class show focused on the publishing industry. Specifically the Japanese dictionary publishing industry. While technically a drama, it often bears more of a resemblance to a laid-back slice of life and includes some romance along with a touch of comedy.

    Posted on December 27, 2016 1:22 am by Offkorn Comment

    This promotional Anime for the upcoming second Gravity Daze game is split into two parts, which are presented in non-linear order. The first half has the two protagonists fighting off a hoard of Nevi that attack a port city, while the second half shows the initial gravity explosion that launched them away from Hekseville.

  • Stella no Mahou

    Posted on December 26, 2016 1:09 pm by Offkorn Comment

    Tamaki is overwhelmed on her first day of high school by the number and variety of available clubs to join. Not having any particular goal she wanders around and eventually stumbles on the SNS Club, which makes video games. After giving the idea some thought she decides to give it a try.

    A schoolgirl slice of life comedy featuring a mix of reaction-based gags and everyday situations that’s a bit heavier on the latter.

    As a huge fujoshi, Kae loves nothing more than imagining romantic relationships between attractive boys. After receiving a massive shock one night while watching Anime, she holes up in her room for an entire week. The seclusion does wonders for her figure and she now find’s herself inundated with male attention… but she would prefer they direct it toward each other instead of her.

    A romantic comedy with the twist being the girl would rather see the suitors paired up with each other. The romance is of the standard harem variety while the comedy is reaction-based and mostly centered on Kae’s otaku interests.

  • Cheating Craft

    Posted on December 26, 2016 5:19 am by Offkorn Comment

    The National Special-Level University Exam, a grueling test that anyone seeking happiness or success in this world must pass. Its existence has given rise to two types of people, those that try to pass through diligence and study and those that try to pass by cheating. Now Mu-Ming the cheater and Qiao Yi the learner have set out to take the exam and free Mu-Ming’s father from wrongful imprisonment.

    A cartoon-like battle shounen fond of extreme over-exaggeration. Everything here from the setting, to the battles, to the character interactions is pushed well over the top.

    Yuuta Gamon runs an occult aggregator blog that’s not doing as well as he’d hoped financially. In an effort to increase its popularity he ends up getting involved with actual occultists and finds himself in the middle of an extremely dangerous situation.

    A hectic show that alternates between firing off dialog and densely-packed visuals at a remarkably quick pace. It also switches things up by alternating between off-the-wall comedy and mysterious/violent drama/horror.

    One night while playing a free-to-play RPG, Koyuki is given the opportunity to become a real magical girl. With visions of being able help people with magic dancing in her head she accepts almost instantly… only to discover that the magical girls of the real world have a very different purpose than those in fantasy.

    An example of the ‘innocent game actually has sinister motives’ variety of show, this starts out earnest and cheerful only to quickly become dark and violent. Unlike some others though it doesn’t fall back on comedy or rapid mood shifts.

  • Girlish Number

    Posted on December 25, 2016 5:02 am by Offkorn Comment

    As a new voice actress Chitose has to navigate many perils in the entertainment world, from fierce competition for good roles to the myriad demands that have nothing to with voice work placed upon the actors. After being scouted as the lead character of a new Anime she finds herself thrust into the very heart of the business’ idiosyncrasies.

    A working-class show that presents a harsh and cynical view of the Anime and LN industry, with a cast full of those perfectly aware of it. The comedy arises both from the absurdity of how the business operates and the contrast between the way some of the characters, particularly Chitose, behave publicly and privately.

  • Yuri!!!: Yuri on Ice

    Posted on December 24, 2016 3:38 pm by Offkorn Comment

    Yuri Katsuki has idolized the Russian figure skater Victor Nikiforov since first sight. Wanting a chance to meet his idol on the same stage, he works his way up to the national level… only to perform badly and return home to contemplate whether or not he’s really cut out for figure skating after all.

    The first half is a sports shounen focused on figure skating. Aside from the choice of sport itself, its other distinguishing features would be the mostly 20+ year old cast, having a particularly cartoony comedy style, and the large amount of yaoi subtext. In the second half the show becomes more mature, in all respects, and closer to a romantic drama.

    The long reining national middle school ping-pong champions are dethroned in a surprise 1st-round upset by an unknown newcomer, who goes on to win the title. Inspired by this unexpected turn of events, the girls of Suzumegahara aim to accomplish that same feat with the help of a skilled transfer student.

    A combination of sports shounen and moe schoolgirl comedy. It has the competitive spirit of the former with the visuals and yuri subtext of the latter.
