Yes, it is very frustrating to me that Netflix keeps pushing this series on me, and I have already watched it. Every time it gets a banner, I think they finally have new episodes. The worst is that yesterday it was showing up as having 12 episodes available! I eagerly clicked to watch the new episodes, but they weren't there.

I had an absolute blast with Akiba Maid War! Some of the most fun I've had from an anime in a long, long time. Fantastic opening and closing songs as well. A deliciously wicked satire of maid cafes in Akihabara acting as fronts for organized crime in a gang war. Fairly intricate storytelling laced with terribly funny pitch-black humor.
One show I'm definitely getting on Blu-ray. Moe moe kyun!

Netflix was streaming the series with 2-week delay (vs Japan broadcast). They never resumed the episodes (episode 8+). Additional episodes (should be episode 8 to 12) reportedly will be streaming January 30 (not officially confirmed).

It's unclear what Netflix is going to. Episode 8 to 12 remains unavailable.

Spy Classroom is a great ongoing series at the moment. The premise is neatly executed as a master spy has to teach a rag-tag group of young female cast-offs from other spy academies and prepare them for a deadly mission.

Ha, sorry wrong thread again. No idea how that even happened as I don't remember even visiting this thread yesterday.
I'm rewatching Gundam: Witch of Mercury again dubbed in another effort to get my kids into Gundam. Though I am curious what they'll think about the ending of the cour...

Check out Immoral Guild if you enjoy lighthearted ecchi with a heart of gold. The young adventurer/protector of a small town is saddled with a harem of incompetent assistants and understudies. Funny show if you can handle the fan service. I guess you could say it borrows from Konosuba a bit, somewhat of the same vibe.

Dropped Fruits Basket about 9 eps in, it was turning into a real slog to get through each episode.
Not sure what I will start next.

Been rolling straight through The Eminence in Shadow. Wild wish fulfillment power fantasy, melding Batman and magic. Definitely some Western movie influence - one place in it is called the Dark Knight Academy. The backstory doesn't really make much sense but once you get into the action you don't care. Fun show.

In case anyone didn't notice, the last episode of Uncle from Another World finally aired. I think this show is hilarious, and I hope we get a second season soon.
Also, I finally watched Cyberpunk, and I enjoyed that quite a bit as well.

Kids went back to school finally so I started Mushoku Tensei again... I don't mind some ecchi but man it feels like it just gets in the way of what is otherwise an interesting and nicely animated fantasy series.
And while not technically anime, excited to watch Netflix's One Piece with my kids tonight.

The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy - This is currently airing, the protagonist is a demon lord who has been asleep for a 1000 years and wakes up to find humanity is fighting a war with monsters called Voids. Reborn in a young human body, he's developing a harem inside a military training academy for gifted students. Kind of a reverse Overlord situation set inside a student academy with the usual juvenile antics. My opinion so far is positive but the season's not even halfway through, it could grow boring depending on where they go with the war.

I love the manga, but I've still been pleasantly surprised by Frieren: Beyond Journey's End. What a great slow paced (intentionally) yet beautifully drawn series.
Basically the hero's team has beaten the Demon Lord. The elf in the party has a huge lifespan, and so considered their 10 year journey to be nothing but a small moment in time, and she realizes decades later that this is not true for the rest of the party, so she sets out to learn to connect with humanity in a way she never had before by just... traveling around.
Also looking forward to Dungeon Meshi/Delicious in Dungeon though it is not nearly as close to the source material art-wise as Frieren is.
