I’m a little confused. Impressions: I’m still kind of baffled by the setting. I didn’t expect the evil witch to have been reincarnated as a pet fish and the magical girl pet. At the same time, listening to her is what got you into this mess, so why on earth would we be going …
Cat Butt Inc #14 — Land of the Sleeveless
The tailors of this kingdom must be rich. Impressions: I’m actually surprised that they didn’t take the whole beefcake gag and really run with it. The pun for ?? (budou – dancing) and ??

Inept Villainess #01 — Ew, Freckles
Japan really hates freckles, huh? Impressions: We FINALLY reach the final new reincarnation show of the season, and a villainess one at that. Technically transmigration, but I’m counting it.

Magical girls should not be corporate. Impressions: I think I would’ve preferred the dynamic where Kuze talks down to these idiot children. “But I have heavy artillery!” You understand that’s not a good argument for anybody involved in this child soldier program is being a responsible adult, right? Unfortunately, she’s immediately won over and …
The Jaadugar of the Tent #03 — Procrastinating Revenge
I’m sure she’ll get around to it eventually. Impressions: Same core issue that I talked about in the prevous episode, and it’s starting to bore more. Fatima né Sitara is too much of a complete nonentity despite the story being completely centered on her. She wants revenge… sort of, but not really, and to accomplish that goal, …
