"Let's Settle This Like Civil Servants."

Allen gives Black Butler a go, covering season 1 and 2, plus some OAVs. It's a fun show according to Allen, but it's definitely not for children, as he'd argue that the Netflix rating is more appropriate than the disc one.

That's our lot for this week. Next week is a bit up in the air, so let's check in and see what happens when the week rolls around.

Where The Mild Flowers BLOOM!

So yeah, I was kinda looking forward to the latest season of Is the Order a Rabbit?, named BLOOM. But after watching it, I also couldn't help but feel slightly let down. Head in to find out why.

Next week, Allen will delve into the dark side of civil service. See you all then.

If the Pen is Mightier Than the Sword, What Happens When There Barely Are Any Pens?

That is the main dilemma as Tim and I undertake the journey that is Ascendance of a Bookworm, and in our case, we just covered both of the two seasons currently available as well as the inbetween episodes. And it really is a fascinating show in so many ways, too. Definitely worth the watch.

Well, hopefully that'll tide you over. It might be one week or two until the next review. That last year has just eaten all of us alive, and it looks like this year is also going to be a bit on the hectic side. Possibly.

The Last Million Stands.

Well, it's not like Allen's pick of the week has much to do about the fight between good and evil, even though it would like to think so. The first season of I'm Standing On A Million Lives tries to give the isekai genre a bit of a different spin, though arguably it's only call to fame is that it's a bit nastier than most shows within the framework. Should you watch it? Well, that depends on what you want out of it.

Next week, I'm hoping we can present a truly different spin on this whole thing, if nothing else cuts in on the dance, that is. We'll see, so check back next week.
