Anime Fall Season 2015: Final Thoughts

Posted on by

It’s that time of the year again, so enjoy our final thoughts on the autumn anime season that just came to an end~

Length: 12 Episodes • Genre: Action, Ecchi, Fantasy, Yuri


What’s the most exciting Yuri show this season? That’s right, it’s no other show than our favorite borderline hentai, Valkyrie Drive.

Since I already posted my full review a few days ago, I don’t really have that much left to say. The anime itself was rather mediocre, the yuri, however, probably blew all our minds.

If you wanna read more, here’s our review~

Anime / Manga / Visual Novel Awards 2015

2015 is slowly coming to an end, which is why we’ll have to stick to our old traditions and hand out my personal Yuri Awards for the year. Enjoy!

Best Yuri Anime: Yuri Kuma Arashi

This one was actually the first big Yuri show of 2015, and it more or less blew our minds, for many different reasons. For many, this anime is one of the greatest shows of the whole year, due to the way you really had to invest some time and even re-watch episodes to really get what certain scenes were supposed to explain to us. For others, this was simply too much, making the show hard to follow, and thus easy to drop. Personally, I had a blast. I can’t say I really got all of what this show had to offer, but it was a real fun ride nevertheless~

Our Personal Highlights of 2015

The year went by in what seemed to be a flash, at least from my perspective. I remember getting back from Japan in early January, and now, we’re almost at the same point again.

But that’s not really what this post should be all about. Well, what I failed at actually telling you with this weird introduction is the fact that I can’t believe that another year has already passed. So since this year went by so fast, let’s do a short recollection of the most important things that pretty much characterized the year for us Yuri fans.

We could say 2015 more or less started out with the continuation of our favorite action/sci-fi/drama/parallel universe/mecha/yuri(ish) anime Cross Ange – a very nice start, if I may say so.

News Update: December 2015

Posted on by

It’s been a while since the last News Update, so we have a lot to get to this time around. Let’s get started~

Starting off with everyone’s new favorite yuri hentai anime, Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid Specials are on the way. They’re mini OVA episodes that will come bundled with the Blu-ray and DVD releases of Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid. Volume 1 goes on sale on December 18th in Japan, so until Volume 6 is released in May 2016, we’ll have even more Mirei x Mamori goodness to feast our eyes on. It’s kind of disappointing that they’re only “mini” episodes, but let’s hope we see even more yuridiculous moments with these specials.

Also being announced a while back was plenty of Hibike! Euphonium news to get excited about. A recap movie, Hibike! Euphonium Movie: Kitauji Koukou Suisougaku-bu e Youkoso, as well as a second season have been given the greenlight. The recap movie is fine, but what’s really exciting is news of another season. Everyone fell in love with KumiRei, and after hearing all of the complaints voiced by the legions of yuri fans, let’s hope KyoAni comes to their senses and gives us what we really want. The movie is currently set for April 2016, while season two’s premiere is yet to be determined. If you can’t quite wait that long, don’t forget that an unaired episode (Hibike! Euphonium: Kakedasu Monaka) is being released alongside the seventh Blu-Ray and DVD volumes, which hit Japanese shelves on the 16th.

Anime Summer Season 2015: Final Thoughts

We’re back with our final thoughts on the summer anime season~

Non Non Biyori Repeat & Working!!! • 7/10


Sorry for adding both of them at the same time. But I just feel like what I have to say for these two shows is pretty much the same.

Even though they didn’t lose their special touch, it still feels like the prior seasons were better. Well, Working! is still a greatly entertaining comedy, and Non Non Biyori is still as relaxing as it was last season, but something is missing.

To say it in meme language:

So sorry for that stupid meme. I promise I will never add one again. 😛

First, Sono Hanabira, then FLOWERS and now we get even more!

This year has already been a blast for most yuri fans, and it seems as if it won’t just stop there. There are actually so many things to talk about right now that I don’t even know where to start.

Let’s just begin with what I believe is most important.

kindred spirits on the roof
Kindred Spirits on the Roof

As we’ve been informed just a few days ago, MangaGamer has localized two yuri Visual Novels, one of them being none other than Okujou no Yurirei-san, or Kindred Spirits on the Roof, as it’s called in English.

It seems like we’re on something of a hot streak of good yuri news lately, and that streak continues with the news that Kishi Torajirou’s yuri comedy Otome no Teikoku is slated to get a “petit” anime adaptation.
