Shinra ignores the fourth wall and takes us back to the first day of a new semester at Raira Academy, where Izaya’s younger sisters Mairu and Kururi make a dynamic entry and Mikado meets a new kid who seems to know a lot more than he lets on. Meanwhile, things go from bad to worse for Celty, as she learns a 10 million yen bounty has been issued for revealing her true identity.
Kousei goes on to play alone. Meanwhile, his mother gets a bunch of flashbacks that try to make her seem sympathetic. The attempt fails. The show goes on to further cement itself as a bad melodrama as more allusions to Kaori’s death loom in the final minutes.
Kousei and Kaori are hard at work practicing for the gala, but Kousei is struggling. Still bogged down by memories of his mother, only amplified by playing this particular piece, he still cannot hear the notes. After basically being lied to by Hiroko, Kousei starts to look at playing in a different light. On the day of the recital, Kaori is missing. Despite this, Kousei still intends to play, even if it is alone.
With Sekai’s evolution as a gunpla fighter proving to be too great of a strain for the Build Burning, Team Try Fighters resolves to improve and upgrade all their gunpla in preparation for their arrival to the national scene. Meanwhile, we get a glimpse at some of the opponents that will stand in their way.
Migi changes his mind about the best strategy to tackle their newest problem. Believing in strength in numbers, they recruit the ever jovial Uda. I was pretty hyped. Back to Tamiya, or rather Tamura now, we find the intelligent Parasyte starting to have human emotions, even if it’s something as despicable as schadenfreude. With her interest in human ethics increasing, might radical changes be happening to her behavior?
Shinichi returns to his normal life, but the student body learns that he was the one to discover Kana’s body. Yuko finds Shinichi’s lack of reaction despite the horrific events disturbing, and Murano agrees. Elsewhere, Reiko has sent a private detective to monitor Shinichi’s movements. After he gets caught, Migi almost murders him, but Shinichi’s conscience stops the attack. Stuck with the paranoia of his secret getting out, he tries to console in Murano, only to find Migi preventing that from happening, leaving him alone.
Years after a catastrophe blows up the moon and devastates Earth, a young girl named Leopard lives with her mother and her two faithful uncles/servants/henchmen, Voltkatze and Elephantus. The descendents of the notorious Doronjo and her Dorobo Gang, the three live in exile and poverty outside the borders of the Yatter Kingdom, where the corrupt Yattermen live in prosperity. Refusing to accept the fate handed to her by the actions of her ancestors, Leopard takes her destiny into her own hands and begins to wage her war on the Yattermen.
Yet again, it is the Sengoku Period as various pretty and obnoxiously designed warlords fight it out for control of Japan.
A strange yellow alien destroys 70% of the moon and threatens to blow up the Earth. After numerous failed assassination attempts, the military manage to make a deal with the alien, allowing him to teach class 3-E at Kunugigaoka School. The students must assassinate their teacher within a year, while receiving assassination training from the alien himself.
A few months after Masaomi’s farewell, life in Ikebukero is back to normal: Celty’s still terrified of the police, Izaya’s still up to his old tricks and Mikado still cannot utter a single word around Anri. Really, the only thing that’s changed is that Erika and Walker have terrible taste in anime now. For shame, guys.
Dragons have appeared on Earth and the only thing that can stop them are girls known as “D”, since they apparently have special powers or something. The world’s first male “D” is discovered and transferred to an all girls’ school for training. Naturally he kicks off his first day accidentally seeing one of the girls naked, only to be interrupted by the appearance of his long lost little sister. Kill me.
Maria’s a witch who just wants people to get along; unfortunately, France is right in the middle of the Hundred Years’ War. Also, I guess she’ll lose her magic if she loses her virginity or something.
Moroha is a new student at an academy for Saviors, individuals who summon memories from the past to fight beings called Metaphysicals. Since this isn’t the type of show where he’s the only male Savior, he’s got to be unique in some other way, so he gets a doable not-imouto and lascivious classmate packaged in! I’m also told there are other wish fulfillment reasons why hes unique but I don’t give a shit.
When two people are summoned to the Quindecim, they must play a game with their lives at stake. A newlywed couple has been summoned, and the games will test their bonds and rock the foundations of their relationship.
In some weird alternate universe Japan, prefectures fight for dominance. Almost every young person belongs to gangs who patrol their own cities, but the battles are one on one fights between the Best as the Rest cheer them on. It’s pretty awesome.
Ryou Machiko often has to cook for herself, and being the only one at the dinner table is making it a lonely, tasteless experience. Ryou ends up with a surprise visit from a second cousin her own age, giving her some company and someone to cook for.
Big name talent agency 346 Production has initiated the Cinderella Project, an undertaking recruiting new idols from the common masses… which is totally different from the usual idol selection process, because regular idols are usually risen from the grave using corporate necromancy or something. Uzuki Shimamura tried auditioning before, but failed to pass. With the world and Namco Bandai’s wallets in need of more idols, however, 346 Pro decides to give her another shot at making her debut. It’s a Cinderella analogy, get it?
Some students in a club make a visual novel.
The conveniently named Earth Defense club is about to disband as they are short one member and too lazy to do anything about it. That all changes when a mysterious visitor from space grants them the special powers they need to live up to their title.
