Dazai goes to another world and keeps trying to kill himself. I surprisingly didn’t hate this. One of the better isekai this season. It takes a very different approach with the main character having zero interest in fighting or saving the world and just wanting to record people’s stories and try and fail to end …
Saturday late night (or actually Sunday early morning, or in practical terms just plain Sunday for me) was a flashy anime time this season. Nige Jouzu, Yatagarasu, Makeine.

Two issues though, aside from the usual bizarre Cloverworks nonsense, like screenshots of CGI horses over random narrator exposition. …
