To its everyday Japanese customers nothing seems out of place at the western-themed restaurant Nekoya. However, every Saturday its doors open to exclusively serve the varied denizens of an alternate dimension resembling a medieval high-fantasy world.

A semi-episodic show about both food and character interactions. While most of its time is spent on scenes at the restaurant, which are almost completely dialog-driven, conflict-centered events from the alternate world also occasionally make an appearance along with small patches of ecchi.

Sagrada Reset

Posted on September 17, 2017 10:02 am by Offkorn Comment

The town of Sakurada is home to a monitored population, many of whom possess special abilities of some form. Kei Asai’s is the ability to remember everything perfectly, which puts him in an ideal position to work with Misora Haruki. Her’s can periodically ‘reset’ the world to a state up to 3 days prior; everything returns to how it was at that earlier point and normally everyone, including herself, loses any memory of what occurred during the reset period. Being unaffected by the memory loss, Kei becomes the only one able to direct that power.

It starts out as a laid-back detective-like series with a secondary focus on a complicated love triangle. Then in the second half things become more adversarial, though the romance elements remain the same. Overall it’s mainly dialog-driven while also containing a few deadpan comedy and action elements.

Ougi Oshino, a mysterious individual claiming relation to Meme Oshino, has inserted themselves into Koyomi’s life and begins to take great interest in both his past and future. An interest which puts him on a collision course with Izuko Gaen.

This portion of the Monogatari franchise is specifically tied to Monogatari: Second Season, Tsukimonogatari, and Koyomimonogatari: The first three stories take place after Koyomi episodes 6 & 7 and focus on Koyomi’s past, the fourth is a recollection of his side of Nekomonogatari (Shiro) told following Tsuki‘s events, and the remaining three continue from Koyomi‘s last episode to conclude the highschool chapter of his life.

Centuries in the past seventeen beasts appeared and wiped out the human race while the other races fled to floating islands. There they now live out their lives with the fairies, who resemble human girls and are the only ones able to use the weapons humanity left behind, acting as a defense against any of the beasts that manage to attack from the surface. Into this new order steps Willem Kmetsch, a human who was frozen in time and has become a caretaker for these living weapons.

A mixed-genre series that starts out as almost a slice of life comedy before eventually fully transforming into an action-infused romantic drama. As far as ecchi content goes, there are only a few scenes scattered around.

Loving kabuki for as long as he can remember, one day following a particularly moving performance Kurogo Kurusu decides to start up a kabuki club at school in order to put on productions of his own. He quickly runs into resistance and skepticism though and must fight an uphill battle to gather members since no one has ever done a highschool-level kabuki performance club before.

A semi-educational school-life club show focused on promoting the extremely uncommon topic of kabuki. It features both comedic and dramatic elements along with several abridged kabuki performances.

Walking home from the store one night Koyomi Araragi finds a vampire on the verge of death, and against his better judgement he decides to sacrifice himself so that she can survive. He does not die however. Instead, she transforms him into a vampire and tasks him with recovering her lost limbs from the hunters who stole them.

A prequel to Bakemonogatari, this series of movies fully fleshes out the brief flashback you get there. Content composition is similar with the main difference being that a larger percentage is dedicated to action and horror.

At only level 3 and easily frightened by high level monsters, Lefiya feels she’s only dragging her level 5-6 teammates down when they take her along on expeditions. After falling into a depression after fumbling yet another spell in the heat of the moment it’s suggested that she find a way to help out Ais, a powerful fighter she admires who’s having troubles of her own.

An alternate look at the events of DanMachi. Whereas that centers on Bell and Hestia, here the perspective follows Lefiya and Ais across the same time period. Both shows have the same themes along with a similar genre composition and you do not have to have seen that to watch this.
