Saving the worst for last.
Five Years of GLORIO: 2016 and Beyond
On a fateful day in July 2012, we created our first post. To commemorate this special occasion, we decided to relive our favorite part of forcing ourselves to watch every anime that ever comes out: the surprises. Just about every season a show or two pops up out of nowhere and turns out to be pretty good, and we wanted to give a shout out to a few you might of missed. In today’s post we’re looking at 2016, which was such a good year for anime that it almost takes up a post of its own.
Five Years of GLORIO: 2014-2015
To commemorate our fifth anniversary, we’re reliving our favorite part of forcing ourselves to watch every anime that ever comes out: the surprises.

Five Years of GLORIO: 2012-2013
To celebrate our 5th anniversary, we decided to relive our favorite part of forcing ourselves to watch every anime that ever comes out: the surprises. Just about every season a show or two pops up out of nowhere and turns out to be pretty good, and we wanted to give a shout out to a few you might of missed. To start, we’ll be taking a look at 2012 and 2013.
The Roundup: Spring 2017 Volume 11
It’s the last Roundup of the season and we say goodbye to… not much actually. Sakura Quest and Bahamut are continuing into summer and thanks to some delays Tsukigakirei and Atom: The Beginning will be ending after the start of next season. So… farewell, Little Witch Academia, we’ll see you when you finally get officially released on Netflix.

Slightly better than Part 1? Maybe???

Five years of anime blogging and this is what they give us?
So What Happened to those WorldEnd Posts?
Sorry about that.
The Roundup: Spring 2017 Volume 10
Tsukigakirei makes me more furious than ever, but not for the usual reasons. Meanwhile, Sakura Quest delivers the best episode of anything this season. How’s that for a tease?
The Roundup: Spring 2017 Volume 9
Sakura Quest and Tsukigakirei are still solid, but Bahamut doesn’t seem to know when to flashback and Atom somehow managed to ruin an episode featuring robots named DEADLY TAURUS and MOHICAN BASSO. Come on anime, step up your game, the season is almost over!
WorldEnd: What do you do at the end of the world? Are you busy? Will you save us? Episode 9
Chtholly seems physically fine but her mind is rapidly deteriorating. As she tries to adjust to her new civilian role, the group celebrates with a Snowfall Festival before departing for the surface.
The Roundup: Spring 2017 Volume 8
I’ve been mildly complaining every week about our favorite Roundup shows spinning their wheels but this week delivers the Quality Conent™ we’ve been longing for. It’s been two weeks, I can spoil it: FAVAROOOOOOOO! He just makes everything better. Too bad Atom: The Beginning still sucks even after a week off.
WorldEnd: What do you do at the end of the world? Are you busy? Will you save us? Episode 7 & 8
Chtholly seems to have recovered from her breakdown but is experiencing strange fundamental changes to her body. She’s taken off active duty as a precaution. An expedition on the surface has uncovered a dug weapon that might help, so Willem and Nephren plan to retrieve it. While their ship is being repaired, Willem is stuck dealing with all the romantic tension building around him.
#HATEWATCH 2017: Eromanga-Sensei Episode 8
Sometimes a show comes along that just deserves to be eviscerated. Perhaps it showcases the worst of anime’s stereotypes. Perhaps it takes an interesting premise and ruins it with befuddling plots or infuriating character arcs. Perhaps you think a show should literally be labelled a war crime by the Geneva Convention. That’s where the HATEWATCH…
The Roundup: Spring 2017 Volume 7
A bit of an abbreviated Roundup this week as Marlin is out and there’s no new episode of Atom: The Beginning for better or worse. Fortunately my two favorite shows, Sakura Quest and Virgin Soul, deliver the goods we’ve been waiting for. Bahamut fans, you already know what I mean.
The Roundup: Spring 2017 Volume 6
We’re into the second half of the spring season and not a lot has changed. Our favorite shows continue to tread water to the point where even the already snail paced Tsukigakirei throws in a completely unwarranted recap episode. We’ll keep holding on to hope that things will pick up eventually though, and remember, it could always be worse…
WorldEnd: What do you do at the end of the world? Are you busy? Will you save us? Episode 6
Willem is reunited with some old friends but the visit turns sour as he learns more about the fairies and the current state of the world. Ctholly is upset that Willem did not return home with the group, but has bigger issues as she struggles to keep control of her mind.
