The members of F6 enjoy another day of… whatever it is that they do. When Choromatsu happens upon a group of college students having fun at a BBQ, it looks like a job for the VIRGIN HERO SQUAD!!!
In a SHOCKING TWIST, two of our regular Roundup shows don’t survive to volume 4. Can you guess WHO MISSED THE CUT??? Fortunately the rest of the lineup holds things down with a good mix of comedy and… well, mostly comedy.
Hinazuki has disappeared. Failing in his mission, Satoru is flung back to the present. Still wanted for his mother’s murder, he tries to find help wherever he can. The only person on his side is Airi, who shows cunning beyond her years. With the true killer still free, is anyone safe?
Satoru continues to try and change the future, but senses he may just be playing through what has already happened. With an overzealous devotion to getting Hinazuki past the 1st untouched, he becomes more bold in dealing with her and her mother. Will the strike of midnight change the world?
All of our new Roundup shows have survived the 3 episode test, but will they survive after 4? Rakugo, Dagashi Kashi, and the shorts are holding steady while KONOSUBA, Nurse Witch Komugi R, and Rainbow Days continue to flirt with the chopping block. But hey, we can always count on Osomatsu to be amazing.
Mira tries to beautify her own little chunk of Kyoma’s pad and gets friendly with the local scamps.
Aquagaze and Irothtin love Digimon. Zigg has never watched Digimon. 16 years after the original Digimon Adventure started airing, can it hold up to Aqua and Iro’s preteen memories? Can it convert Zigg, seeing it for the first time? Could this schmuck director actually have a future in this industry?
This Time… Mamoru Hosoda Arc (Digimon Adventure: Born of Koromon and Digimon Adventure episode 21 )
Awkwardness within the party is at an all-new high thanks to Ranta peeking on the girls bathing. Luckily, the discovery of an abandoned city full of goblins offers some hope for their future in Grimgar.
Satoru continues to gather information about Hinazuki to get a better timeframe of when she may be kidnapped. After tracking down her home, he gets a firsthand look at her personal hell.
Our comedy-heavy Roundup gets a little heavier with the addition of KONOSUBA and a LOT heavier with Sekko Boys. PLEASE LAUGH AT MY BAD JOKES.
Kyoma and Mira investigate the phantom thief known as “Loser”, infamous for repeatedly failing his heists.
Starved for cash, the party heads out on another goblin hunt. It doesn’t go well.
Satoru has been flung back to the 80’s, surely a fate worse than death. In his desperate search to try and find what will save his mother, he tries to connect with Hinazuki, and learns that there is more to her story than its tragic end.
I honestly don’t remember any story happening. It’s a by-the-numbers light novel adaptation, who even cares.
The Winter 2016 Roundup starts off with a bang as we bring in a new block of shows as well as a few returning contenders. Dagashi Kashi, Ojisan and Marshmallow, Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju, Nurse Witch Komugi R, and Rainbow Days all make their Roundup debut while Snow White with the Red Hair and Durarara return after a season off. Oh, and of course Mr. Osomatsu is still with us, thank the anime gods!
Asuka has just transferred to Kuna Island, a land where technological wonders allow everyday students to fly to school on anti-gravity shoes. The local schools have invented a game using them, and when her school’s honor is put to the test, Asuka stands up to defend it. Before you start to think that might actually sound cool, it isn’t.
A video game-loving NEET dies but is given the chance to continue living in a parallel universe. MMOs are apparently all the rage these days so now he’s in one of those.
Aquagaze and Irothtin love Digimon. Zigg has never watched Digimon. 16 years after the original Digimon Adventure started airing, can it hold up to Aqua and Iro’s preteen memories? Can it convert Zigg, seeing it for the first time? Can anyone stop the power of evil Elvis in a onesie?
This Time… Etemon Arc (Digimon Adventure episodes 14-20)
Set in the Muv Luv Alternative universe in which aliens called BETA invaded Earth during the height of the Cold War, our story picks up in Germany in 1983. Not only is the nation divided by East and West, East Germany is dealing with in-fighting of its own as it tries to unite against the BETA. At the center of the turmoil is East Germany’s ace 666th Squadron (yes, 666, it’s OK to laugh), who pick up a mysterious girl while fighting on the front lines.
