This show was really fun and entertaining. It was really interesting that Juli had a male voice, and I wasn’t sure if Juli was supposed to be male or female. I was disappointed that the anime was only 12 episodes long, but it seems that they seem to be making shorter anime series recently though.

Psycho-Pass – Season 1

The show fallows Akane Tsunemori, a new inspector of Unit One. Tsunemori hunts criminal with other criminals called Enforcers. Enforcers are given special guns called Dominators designed to only kill people with a high Crime Coefficient. On Tsunemori’s first day she shoots Kogami, a talent criminal. She is accompanied by Ginoza, her superior who looks down on Enforcers, and Masaoka (previous detective) and Karari (Enforcer). She is assigned to be Kogami’s handler for missions. The main antagonist is a criminal named Makishima, who’s psychology yields a low crime coefficent, which them from shooting him with the Dominators.

I was unsure if I was going to like this series since I’m not used to detective anime shows, but it was good. I think Kogami and Makishima were my favorite characters in the show. But after the first couple episodes I really got into it. I’m really looking forward to seeing the next season.

Available On: Netflix.

Barakamon

Handa a professional calligrapher punches a curator of a gallery after his work is criticized. The curator had said that his work was too unoriginal, causing Handa to get angry. Handa’s father sends him off to a small remote village for a ‘retreat’. There he practices to prefect his work, and meets the villagers and interacts with them. The anime is an adaptation of the manga, Handa-kun, by Kinema Citrus, Funimation has licensed the show for streaming.

This is one of my recent favorites since I have been looking for good animes to watch. This anime doesn’t disappoint. It’s very funny and very enjoyable.
