Winter 2022 Anime Season

First impressions... "Orient" https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1576/119361.jpg The entire plot was absolutely ludicrous. A total waste of time.

"Hakozume - Kouban Joshi no Gyakushuu" https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1302/119917.jpg The story is about 2 female police officers. Honestly, again the plot in the 1st episode was a bit absurd and forced, but it was still kind of funny and nicely animated. The so called gorgeous senior officer / role model is pretty foul mouthed. I will probably keep watching this one.

"Leadale no Daichi nite" https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1084/120149.jpg This is another main character get trapped in a VR game, now turned real world. However, she's now somehow 200 years in the future of that game. And apparently, she was a rather ruthless gamer previously. The first episode was lighthearted and a bit silly, but fun to watch. This could be an enjoyable one to watch this season.

"Tokyo 24-ku" https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1442/120112.jpg Is this the running theme this season... Awful and forced plots in the first episode? At least the animation was decent. The 3 main characters somehow have superhuman abilities, and there's an AI connected to all the security cameras in the city that predict crimes before they happen. That's the entire take away from the 48 minute first episode. This one was only so-so. The plot made me cringe.

"Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san Season 3" https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1861/120361.jpg This is the 3rd season of a boy named Nishikata getting teased by a girl named Takagi who is his cute childhood friend. Everyday the overly imaginative Nishikata feels he's being challenged by Takagi who is just playful teasing him, and he can never seem to beat her. Very cute, lighthearted, and funny.

"Dolls' Frontline" https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1783/118956.jpg Android soldiers that look like little girls, that run around the battlefield shooting other android soldiers that look like girls. Not something I'd enjoy watching. But I guess if you're going to have little girls play soldiers and get blown to bits, at least they're androids.

"Shikkakumon no Saikyou Kenja" https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1132/120388.jpg In this one, a sage reincarnates 1000 years in the future. Now as a young boy attending the 2nd royal academy, he finds people's magical skills have diminished due to demon interference and trickery. This one was fairly fun to watch.

"Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru" https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1179/119897.jpg Seriously that would have killed a normal person. How on earth did she get that kind of air? That dude hiding his hobby was the correct choice. That little girl from his past was right. I was going to write this one off because of the whole doll things, but they actually did a decent job with this one.

"Akebi-chan no Sailor-fuku" https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1312/120268.jpg A girl's slice of life story. The art style was a little different than usual, but it was really well done. Very pretty, cute, and very girly.
