This season

Fate/strange Fake - I am but a casual Fate watcher, who has seen only Fate/stay night and Fate/Zero and did or did not find it too pretentious to my liking, why am I enjoying it this much? The cast is fun, the priest is somehow annoying but in a hot way, and the blond girl with her knight duo's dynamic looks interesting. Fun.

In the Clear Moonlit Dusk - I was so afraid the guy would remind me of Itsuomi and I would have to either suffer or drop it, but, luckily, it wasn't the case (I'm staying optimistically cautious though). I'm pretty sure manga is more gorgeous, but I'll keep watching for now, since it's from the author of Tsubaki-chou Lonely Planet and Hirunaka no Ryuusei, and I enjoyed both.

You and I Are Polar Opposites – hand-holding in the very first episode? Modern romances know no shame. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this premiere. I liked how supportive Suzuki's friends were of her. Also, OP reminded me of Shoshimin's Kaseijin, so I looked into the director. Kyouhei Ishiguro, got to remember this name.

The Daily Life of a Part-time Torturer - watching the cast going on with their daily lives is almost satisfying, though I mostly ignore the torture bits. The boys are cute. The banter is good.

Dark Moon - looks like your standard supernatural reverse harem slop. I'm gonna watch it unironically. For now, that is.

Anyway, I'm Falling in Love with You Season 2 - the production is still bad, but at least there is emotion in voices. I'm kinda addicted to this friends circle drama. Maybe I should switch to manga.
