It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Putting pen to paper or fingertips to keyboard can be more difficult than one might think. Last time–April 29th, I remember promising to write more frequently. I think that jinxed me. So, as much as I want to tell you to expect more posts, I shall say instead that you’ll be lucky to read another post from me this side of 2021.
At any rate, one of those posts which I ought to have written was on Spring 2020’s anime. If you remember, I only watched Sing “Yesterday” for Me, Wave! Listen to Me, and My Next Life as a Villainess. This season turned out somewhat better in me finding five anime to watch. (Seven to nine anime used to catch my attention every season, but I must have come to the conclusion at some point that life is too short to watch bad anime. Or, maybe not: I did watch Sing “Yesterday” for Me.) Take a look at the following five anime, and tell me whether I’m missing out on anything good.
1) Gibiate
Here is a true masterpiece of the time-traveling, samurai, monster-slaying genre. Everyone should be watching Gibiate, ready to rate it five stars, and sending Crunchyroll e-mails, postcards, and handwritten letters of thanks for producing this anime. This counts as a welcome break from your standard fare of magic academies, high school rom-coms, harems, and isekai.
