BURN THE WITCH #0.8 (Studio Colorido)
Dragons /Urban Fantasy/Witches/Cute Critters/Magic
[Official Description]: "Dragons"... from ancient times, they were considered fictional creatures, but they're not actually fictional, nor are they technically creatures. They are heteromorphic beings, and many of the deaths in London can be attributed to them. But most citizens in London don't know what dragons look like or know they even exist. Only those who live in Reverse London can see them. In Reverse London, there was an agency called Wing Bind (WB for short) that was in charge of protecting and managing the dragons. And there were two witches who belonged to Wing Bind...
[Squeedar] “Dragons” are a personal favorite so the ears will always pick up. From first impression of the trailer, the world in this anime seems to be emotional balance game of good and evil manifesting in different creature forms. There are peeks of cute, adorable critters and fascinating magic systems at play (I caught that vanishing phone booth!)
Fluffy Paradise (EMT Squared)
Isekai/ Reincarnation/Cute
[Official description] When this overworked office lady finally meets her maker, she’s reborn with an adorable ability. Midori is reincarnated in another world as a young girl, Nema, and must help decide if the humans there should continue to exist. In return, she gains the power to be loved by all nonhuman creatures. From fantasy beasts to mythical monsters, she’s free to pet any animal to her heart’s content!
[Squeedar] This has a dark and sad beginning (especially since the Squeedar’s day job is an office job!) but…but…THE POWER TO CUDDLE ALL ANIMALS!!!!! If being reborn as a Duke’s daughter and frolic about petting all kinds of creatures is the karmic consolation prize after toiling away at a desk job, then yes please. Add more files to my workflow. I have a giant white tiger to pet.
The Demon Prince of Momochi House (Drive)
Demons/Hot Guys/Rent is Due/Why Choose/Magic
[Official Description] Himari’s 16th birthday will be one she never forgets. Unexpectedly, she receives a will detailing her inheritance of a mysterious estate: the Momochi House. She arrives only to discover that the home was built on the cusp between the human world and the spiritual realm. There, she encounters Yukari, Ise, and a peculiar boy named Aoi, who seems to be concealing a shadowy secret.
[Squeedar] with the housing market and availability as it is in the States, I wish with all of the protein fibers within my body that this was a problem that fell in my lap. Just to have a house legally willed to me is the absolute fantasy to wish for. The hot demon roommates that are not who they seem? I’m from Los Angeles. That’s a pretty normal thing. Add some demonic or otherwordly thing, well now. Attention has been grabbed
Sasaki and Peeps (SILVER LINK.)
Reincarnation/ Office Worker/ Bird/ Isekai/ Magic
[Official Description] Sasaki is a middle-aged office worker living in Japan. Feeling drained by the vapid corporate world, he heads to the pet shop in search of a new companion. There he finds an adorable bird named Peeps and takes him home. But Sasaki quickly learns that Peeps isn’t your average bird...he’s a powerful mage from another world! Together, they embark on a magical adventure filled with swords and sorcery.
[Squeedar] An almost 40 year old office worker and a magical bird that gets transported into another world. This cannot scream any louder for me to watch it. It’s screeching so loud that my other pets are circling in confusion
MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES Season 2 (A-1 Pictures)
comedy * magic * magic school * cream puffs
[Official description] This is a world of magic. This is a world in which magic is casually used by everyone. In this world of magic, Mash Burnedead attends Magic School. To protect this quiet life with his family, he sets his sights on becoming a “Divine Visionary,” the elite of the elite, while hiding the fact that he can’t use magic. He surpasses the best and brightest of the wizarding world with his ripped muscles and faces the Divine Visionary Candidate Selection Exam. The second curtain rises on this off-kilter magical fantasy in which the power of being jacked crushes any spell! .
[Squeedar] With complete shameless transparency, I am already a massive fan of Mashle. Just so excited that it’s back that I couldn’t help sharing it!
