The Kawai complex residents sit down and analyze how they handle their relationships. Usa takes a genuine interest in one of Ritsu’s books, giving the pair some common ground. Sumiko proposes telling a group story to kill time together, with disturbing results.
Ping Pong delivers the coolest OP of the season, Lifesong geeks out over No Game No Life and not because of the Jojo references, and we have our first official drop of the season. WHAT COULD IT BE???
Usa takes Sayaka’s words to hard and ups his efforts to get closer to Ritsu. He learns more about why Ritsu doesn’t have friends, but his borderline stalker methods might take things too far.
In this week’s episode: Lifesong and Marlin both refuse to drop anything as we unleash our full slate of shows. A certain table tennis anime continues to ping our pong (that sounds disgusting), Nananananana’s Buried Treasure goes for the shotgun blast of anime girl fetishes, and if you look closely you just might find a Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure joke.
Usa buys a bike but Ritsu doesn’t seem impressed. Mayumi’s Ex tries to contact her, leaving her with mixed emotions. Sayaka’s flirtatious personality proves to be quite dangerous in more ways than one.
The residents of the complex spend their break together, making giant bubbles, doing laundry, and watching horror movies. Usa meets the fifth and final tenant of the building but she may not be the sweet, normal girl that she appears to be.
This Week: Riddle Story of Devil The Devil’s Riddle continues to keep us delightfully perplexed, I finally get to geek out over Tonari no Seki-kun: The Master of Killing Time a.k.a the Best Show of the Season on a weekly basis, and Lifesong gets to flex his considerable anime-watching muscle on a host of other shows.
We are making some (hopefully) cool changes to our anime coverage! Please tell us if it’s good or if it sucks.

Part 2 of our Spring 2014 Anime Guide is headlined by the Noitamina block of shows and a pair of potential big hits in The Irregular at Magic High School and Knights of Sidonia. Add in a RomCom from the author of Love Lab and a few anime original projects and I’m finding the second half of the guide even more intriguing than the first.
Part 1 of our guide is highlighted the return of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, the pretty new Bones project, Captain Earth, and an unusually high amount of light novel adaptations.
