What Have You Watched This Past Week That is NOT a Currently Airing Show? [May 10th, 2015]

The Rolling Girls (10-12/12) - Finished up the Rolling Girls and it was, no pun intended, quite a ride. While only keeping the main four prevalent through most of the arcs, it was a bright colorful ride through many different conflicts, populated by interesting, albeit simple, characters and an overall theme of growth. I loved following the girls through the different stories and seeing each of them mature as characters Slight spoilers. Rolling Girls is definitely a series I'm happy I watched, and I didn't personally feel the dip in quality a lot of people talk about with the show.

Love Live! School Idol Project 2nd Season (1-10/13) - Decided to pick up the second season of LL, after I finished Rolling Girls, after intending to a while, and I'm so glad I did, it has completely trumped the first season so far to me. The group's main goal of achieving victory at the Love Live seems much more realistic this season, and I'm liking the increased interactions between μ's and A-RISE, it's made them feel a lot more like rivals than just an obstacle to overcome. The increased quality of the main story episodes, coupled with some frankly incredible single-character episodes (I absolutely loved Nico's siblings and Nozomi's episode...legitimately made me tear up), has made the second season, for me, a home-run so far.

Still best girl

Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya (1-3/10) - Going with the fact that I've recently realized that the Mahou Shoujo genre is one of, if not, my favorite genre within anime, I decided to pick up Prisma Illya after hearing a lot of good things. While I haven't seen much of the Fate series, I know enough to get along, and I really like the integration of the different classes in the form of Class Cards. Putting it On-Hold for now, as I really want to finish Love Live (and hopefully go to the NYC premiere of the movie in a few months) and there's another show I've been meaning to try since I finished Saekano.

The week ahead: Finishing Love Live II most likely tomorrow and picking up The World God Only Knows afterwards. Depending on that, I may watch the rest of the seasons after. If not, going back to Prisma Illya
