Wrapping up the fall anime season...
Mawaru Penguindrum 24! the end. I was going to write that the last episode was not a literal as the rest of the series, but that's not totally accurate. It was in keeping with the progression of the story, but deliberately left open to interpretation. *spoilers* The brothers who had shared the fruit of fate have to be punished for their parents' sin, and instead of losing the ones they love, sacrificed themselves. Yeah, rather simplifying it for myself. I don't get why Mario had a penguin hat and where that side of the story would have gone. And was Sanetoshi only after revenge against Momoka? Despite the blurriness of it all, there is an understanding of what happens to the main characters (The boys weren't reincarnated; more like fate shifted so they didn't cross the other characters which is kinda sad). ~8/10 rating~ for story that kept you hooked with its twists, and for the top-notch production; very much enjoyed the visuals.
Sekaiichi Hatsukoi S2 12! the end...for now. This was a flashback episode featuring Takano's view of the past which was mainly influenced by his parents' pre-divorce spats and their lack of attention. The visit to the not-Subway was cute. ~9/10~ rating for this season. There was a boost in character/relationship development (especially in the last couple episodes), and although all the smut continued to be off-screen, the production had some good peaks. I also gave the season an extra point for the dancing bunny fairy. I'm looking forward to Nakamura Shungiku's Hybrid Child being animated next year.
Un-Go 11! the end. until the DVD/BD episode which explains the backstory to the two main characters. This was a rather dull conclusion to the fake death conspiracy. The battle between Inga and Bettenou was just oddly out of place. Despite the decent set-up; a defeated detective whose truths get covered up and a creepy sidekick who eats souls; the series lacked good storytelling, good side characters and decent bad guys. ~6/10 rating~ for the lackluster detective series.
Chihayafuru 12! is thankfully only at the halfway mark. Chihaya and the rest prepare for nationals. Their teacher becomes interested after seeing them practice.
