70) Sodor Reading Between the Lines: 20th Anniversary edition - It's good to see there's still life in the series yet, and Christopher Awdry's passion shines through. One can only hope this book's success will lead to renewed interest from the publishers, but if not, it's still nice to have.

69(nice) Digital Monster X-Evolution - I was hoping this would explain the whole X-antibody thing and while it sort of does it's in that "these characters already know what's going on and you have to pick it up as you go along" way, which has it's pros and cons.

68) Chainsaw Man (dub) - Yeah it's peak. Funny, horrifying, and sexual in a weird offbeat way that really resonates with me. I know some of the stylistic choices for the adaptation were controversial but I enjoyed it as is.

67) Digimon Frontier (sub) - I don't have a problem with the humans becoming Digimon premise but the series does have issues regarding pacing, character, and messaging, that tend to get worse as it goes. There's some bright spots but it's definitely the weakest series so far.

66) Digimon Frontier: Revival of Ornismon (sub) - I appreciate this movie trying to do a "war is bad" story but the visual of the dead Digimon popping into colourful eggs, while lore accurate, kinda robs the concept of any actual weight.

65) Spy x Family Season 2 (dub) - The cruise ship arc is the series at it's best so far, with really compelling tension, action, and drama, the episodes around it are good too, (particularly the Damian one) but that arc is the star os the show.

64) Spy x Family Part 2 (dub) - I'm of 2 minds about these episodes, on the one hand after Bond is introduced I can feel the pacing start to stagnate, but also we are getting more in-depth into the characters so It's not too bad, plus the series is still incredibly cute.

63) Digimon Story: Time Stranger - There's a few rough edges, but it's such a fun time feeling like you've stepped into the a Digimon anime. Everything about the world, the characters, and the story is so well done.

62) Spy x Family: Part 1 (dub) - It's just cute man. It's a bit of a slow start getting all the pieces in place but I don't care because everyone's so fucking adorable.

61) Metal Cardbot S (sub) - This is just a nice followup to the first season, slightly improved in basically every way, better action, better designs, and a better plot. It's not too different but the definition of "if you liked S1 and want more this is for you."

60) Mobile Fighter G Gundam (sub) - So obviously there's a ton of over-the-top goofy fun here but it's done incredibly earnestly. This show does still tackle a lot of the same themes as other Gundams, just through a very different filter. I kinda wish we got more like it.

59) Digimon Story: Time Stanger Prelude - this short is amazing at being able to cram so much emotion into such a brief runtime, I think even without the context of the game it'd still make me tear up. Also Justimon is the coolest guy I've ever seen in my life.

58) One Battle After Another - A really good comedy action thriller that feels like it could be an important radicalising text if hyou don't already agree with most of what it's saying like I do.

57) Dr. STONE: Science Future Part 2 - IMO, this arc is where the story peaks, and I was legit tearing up several times. Dr. Stone is ridiculously underrated in general tbh.

56) Kamen Rider Gavv - A good mix of classic structure and concepts, with modern and really strong character and relationship writing, I'm glad I decided to get back into tokusatsu when I did.
