Finished the weekend gauntlet of good anime.

Mushoku tensei remains amazing. It was nearly all backstory this episode but it was very good.

World trigger is still solid. Nothing too great has happened in it this season but it's the kind of show that is consistently good rather than a show that hits high peaks (although main girl's meteor was quite the spectacle). I think world trigger does a better job than any anime I've seen of making all the people competent and relevant. We don't have god tier main characters pulling away from the pack and strategy can overcome nearly any disadvantage, and yet within this, theres still room for one person to be powerful. Probably the best managed power system out there.

86 apparently ran into production issues and so we only get a recap episode this week. At least it doesn't count towards the episode total but I hope this doesn't spell disaster for the animation since it was so great earlier on. Would definitely rather wait a week here and there and maintain that high quality.

Ranking of Kings is still great. This episode didn't surpass the masterpiece that was the previous one but it was still good. If anything stands out, it's that all the characters really have a lot of depth to them. It's very impressively done.

Faraway paladin had a pretty good episode. We are finally out of the prologue and stuff happens right away. Maybe the most enjoyable episode after the first one.

Blue period just gets better as time goes on for me. I think this last episode may have been it's strongest, or at the very least it's a good one. The main character is so likeable and earnest yet fragile. He's just on a constant roller coaster of emotions but it's fun to watch. I also feel like this was the first time they really kept me along for the fine art portion. We can see the technical skills mix with the psycological skills he's developed and the process for deciding what to draw and how to draw it actually made sense to me. Also the OP is a banger. I listen to it every time.

I'm not sure how I feel about all the good anime being concentrated on just half the week but at least we did end up gettin some pretty solid shows after all.
