Rainy day over here so I decided to do an image board of anime girls with no umbrellas who got caught in the rain.
The Fable – 04
Another day, another Bubble series (one on the Patron Pick Ballot). I suspect if The Fable were airing on a different day it would probably be pretty safe, but Sundays are (as usual) brutal for me. That begs the question of course of why I couldn’t just cover this one a day or two late. …
Tonari no Youkai-san – 04
I’m pretty close to the official opt-in with Tonari no Youkai-san. This show is genuinely interesting, because it’s more than a simple healing slice of life with Shinto overtones (which anime has had plenty of already).
