Whoa, Hitoribocchi no Chikyuu Shinryaku had a cameo in Kore Kaite Shiine this week, cool. An absolute classic.

lostinanime.com/2026/09/worl... Seriously, that was one of the most existentially depressing things I’ve seen in anime for a long time.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/patr... I don’t really know what’s happening here but I know this with utter certitude, Auntie Witch is the good one.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/seih... After the last couple of episodes, to do what Seihantai did this week was the height of cruelty.
I know it's very unlikely any of the specific stuff happening in Jaadugar really happened, but it's a fascinating exercise in speculation. Basically Mongolian Game of Thrones.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/tenm... Fatima is smart enough to see possibility where it exists, to understand that there is another path for her in this world, should she choose to pursue it.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/mao-... Natsuno has always been kind of the “which of these is not like the others” onmyouji.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/yomi... Boy, what a world… it could be so wonderful, if it wasn’t for certain people.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/mair... The supporting cast here is obviously a strength, but not many of them can anchor a storyline the way Iruma can.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/uchi... This was another very good episode, but as with most things with this show I have conflicted feelings.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/nige... As the series’ first real visit to Kyoto (a few earlier cutaways notwithstanding) this is a significant moment.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/kami... Maybe I’m wrong to assume there is some sort of plan there, but it’s hard to imagine an adaptation of a long-finished manga like this would just stop in the middle.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/reiw... Those two kids and Dara-san have one of the most heartwarming relationships I can remember in anime for a long time.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/otom... The relationship between the two facets of Otome Kaijuu Caraméliser grows ever-more tenuous with each preposterous development.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/supe... I’m not sure I can remember a series with more elephants in the room than Super no Ura de Yani Suu Futari.
I liked Ura no Report but Man, it leaned HARD into the Bokuayaba thing. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, they say.
lostinanime.com/2026/09/worl... I feel a lot of sympathy for Oniyasha here. He’s just doing what he’s been trained to do since he was a toddler, and now everyone close to him is leaving his side.
lostinanime.com/2026/08/patr... What I can say about Sayonara Lara at this point is this: it’s almost certainly going to be a tragic ending, and I’m going to care.
lostinanime.com/2026/08/tenm... If you view Tenmaku no Jaadugar through the lens of pure storytelling, there’s no doubt it’s a series worthy of considerable admiration.
lostinanime.com/2026/08/mao-... Credit where it’s due – Nanoka was by far the most badass she’s been in the entire series.
lostinanime.com/2026/08/mair... As soon as we got the montage of characters settling down in front of the TV I knew we were getting a spit take.
lostinanime.com/2026/08/uchi... This series is surprising me less by what it does than by how I feel about what it does.
