Various thoughts on a variety of topics.
The normal everyday life of the completely untalented and slightly unlucky Nagito Komaeda is thrown into turmoil after one of his close friends is suddenly murdered.
This takes place after Danganronpa 3‘s last Future episode and just before the Hope episode. It starts off with wacky school-life antics and ends with philosophical monologues.

Some 200 years after a space/time collapse a world’s inhabitants uncover the remains of ancient robotic weapons. Following their restoration and use in warfare two major powers have emerged, and are now locked in a race to restore as many of these “Armors” as possible. Enter Lean, an Armor mechanic’s apprentice who finds himself suddenly forced into the role of military spy at a time of great political upheaval.
Set centuries after the first Orguss, this series is quite different and does not require having seen that one. It’s initially focused more on espionage and political intrigue than mecha action.

After moving from Tokyo into the countryside so that her father could pursue his dream of becoming a baker, Tsubasa is having trouble fitting in at her new school. Complicating her new life further is the sudden intrusion of two aliens who have just crashed nearby with a cargo of monstrous creatures.
A sort of ‘coming of age’ daily life series that shows how Hikaru’s existence helps Tsubasa become more outgoing and shed her crippling timidness. The action-centric monster seeds plotline takes up about a quarter of each episode.

In this universe populated by anthropomorphic animals, Tamala is traveling to Orion for reasons initially unknown. Along the way she ends up stranded on Planet Q and becomes acquainted with a cat named Michelangelo.
This is not a conventional story in any sense of the concept. It’s more akin to a meditation on, or a repudiation of… something. It’s abstract and has visuals resembling Anime from the 1930-1950 period mixed with full-color CGI.

As a studious, slightly boring girl, Cocona doesn’t have any particular direction or goals in life. One morning that all changes when she encounters the wild, impulsive Papika and finds herself suddenly tossed into a bizarre dream dimension.
Bouncing as it does between settings and genres, this is a difficult series to pin down. I suppose at its core you could call it an embellished magical girl family drama. The comedy is a mix of reaction and situational while the ecchi aspects do not often have any particular attention drawn to them.

After being sucked into the toilet one night, the playboy toilet-seat designer protagonist is granted super powers and instructed to protect the world from an approaching alien invasion. Powers which unfortunately make him unrecognizable to his daughter and twist any references he tries to make to his normal life.
A random comedy heavy with toilet humor. Remarkably varied toilet humor peppered with fast-talking flashbacks that concludes with a large number of action scenes.

Following the events of Biohazard: Degeneration, Leon is investigating rumors of monster sightings in eastern Europe. There he becomes entangled in a civil war in which the rebel fighters have begun using bio-organic weapons to even the playing field against the government’s military superiority.
Unlike the prequel which doesn’t rely on any detailed references to the games, this one expects you to know what happened in the fourth Biohazard game. It mixes monster-horror action with a bit of war drama.

Seven years after the events of the first two Biohazard games, Claire Redfield ends up trapped in the middle of another T-virus outbreak. Leon S. Kennedy is tasked with the job of rescuing her and some other survivors, and the two of them stumble upon another conspiracy after getting caught up in a terrorist plot.
A full-CG action/horror movie. If you’ve ever played a zombie-themed corridor shooter, well this is basically that in movie form capped off by an elaborate boss battle.

The characters from the smartphone game of the same name try various methods to increase its popularity, attempts which result in failure more often than not.
Half gag comedy (with an ever-shifting style of humor; 4th-wall breaking, situational, reaction, parody, etc.) and half literal advertisement featuring a notable streak of ecchi.

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.
