★ The Black Cat (1989)
"sorry, sarah, but i can control time now" and "am i crazy?" "yes, kill yourself" are all-timer lines in cinema

★ My-HiME (rewatch)
Early 2000s trash at its finest. The beginning actually held up better than I expected, all the over-the-top fanservice aside, but the rest uhhhh sure did not. Akira/Takumi, however, is timeless.

★ Secrets of the Silent Witch
Looked really nice and had a fairly charming cast, though the compressed nature of the adaptation showed in a few places and it never feels like it strays particularly far from all the familiar LN tropes.

★ The Summer Hikaru Died
Fantastic--a bit slow in places, but it feels like a deliberate choice to take its time rather than a pacing issue. Has an incredible sense of atmosphere (and makes full use of the medium to evoke it) and depicts a fascinating relationship between the two male leads.

★ Turkey! Time to Strike
Love a show that executes an incredibly dumb premise with unfaltering earnestness. Don't know if I'd recommend it to others but I'm glad I hopped on; this was an unexpected treat every week.

★ My Dress-Up Darling Season 2
Maintains all the charm of the first season with an even greater focus on the aspects of the series I like the most. Amane was such a great addition to the cast!

★ Dan Da Dan Season 2
The humor and character writing just don't land for me in a way that tends to grate on my nerves (except for Turbo Granny, who is perfect in every respect), but it won me back at the eleventh hour with the robot fight and Evil Eye's everything. Now THAT was insanely fun stuff.

★ Doctor Who (Series 15)
Yikes yikes yikes! Had a promising start, but completely fizzled out in the second half. I'm someone who can usually find something to enjoy in even RTD's messier finales, but this one was just irredeemably bad.

★ Gokumon Nadeshiko Koko ni Ari 4
The material feels like it's getting better; that second story was pitch-perfect, and the "all the episodic adventures were connected" twist felt more satisfying than the first volume's. Could still stand to build better on some ideas, but pretty good overall!

★ Groundhog Day (1993)
Despite being so thoroughly familiar with its premise, it managed to be a pretty different movie from what I expected. Way more about the rollercoaster ride of "what effect does living in a time loop have on this dude's psyche" than plot. I liked that.
