Ok I'll talk about Odd Taxi a bit.

First, the good, and there's a lot of good. Odokawa is a great character, and I liked how he interacted with the many plots that were going on without ever feeling shoehorned in. A few relied on some pretty unlikely coincidences, but this is fiction so I understand that, it's the only way a story of this scope would work. I liked all the side characters too, which is impressive for a cast of this size. The two comedians were probably the most extraneous, but I enjoyed them. Who knew complaining about not being seen as funny could be so funny. The plot, and especially the way all the different threads came together, was also superb.

I do have one complaint, which is minor all things considered. I felt the alpaca lady was kind of wasted. She interacted with Odokawa like three short times, initially at the behest of Dobu, and then suddenly she was completely in love with him and willing to admit to everything. I kept expecting another twist with her but no, she completely switched loyalties. I feel like there needed to be way more interactions between them for that to seem earned.

Still, that's more a missed opportunity than a problem I guess. Odd Taxi was great, an easy 9/10. It's in my top 25 anime now.
