We review the second half of Sakamoto Days season one. With more plot progression than the first half, the second cour is action-packed and full of mystery. We discuss Sakamoto’s connections and his past, throwaway enemies and unnecessary fights, and skinny vs. fat Sakamoto.

We review the third season of Spy x Family. We’ve been wanting this anime to give us something substantial to the plot, and did this season deliver? Sort of. We discuss impacts to relationships, Loid’s backstory, Yor’s struggle to find normalcy, and whether the status quo really changed by the end of this season.
