Two more airing anime completed

Spy x Family was fine. I didn't like it anywhere near as much as the rest of the world, but there wasn't anything wrong with it. Anya is cute, Loid is cool, and Yor is fun. All the side characters were fine. I just feel like it never really focused on anything. Anya needs to do well at school but she seems mostly stuck in a rut. Loid is doing spy stuff but we never see the impact on the political situation. Yor is presumably doing assassinations but they never show that at all. Like, I have absolutely no idea who Yor works for, is she working for the government Loid works for or against him? I dunno. Sometimes Loid's agency has no other spies except for him, sometimes they can summon hundreds at a moments notice. This isn't funny enough to be a purely comedy anime, in my opinion, but so far none of the other elements have risen to fill the gap. I'll definitely keep watching it, but I hope it evolves into something more at some point.

Love Live Nijigasaki S2 was also fine. I liked this season more than the first because there was no dumb drama like in S1. It felt like it'd go that direction early on but thankfully it never did. The new characters they added were all good too, Lanzhu's songs in particular are great. This is still by far my least favorite Love Live, though. They did a lot more group stuff this season, but I still never felt like the Nijigasaki girls came together as well as 's or Aqours did. It also never felt like they had a concrete goal, both the original Love Live and Sunshine had something they were aiming for the entire time. Nijigasaki was more episodic with characters having personal goals. It was still a fun anime though.
