First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 3
This note includes a spoiler. I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 3 twice. 7/10. This episode was from Rudeus's point of view, and it picked up after the last episode of season 2. This episode was about a regular, peaceful life. Nothing exciting. Just a normal day as ever. It was funny, and I was relieved, that he still called Roxy his Deity. I thought he stopped at the end of season 2, but he still treated her as his master and his Deity. That was the first word I'd heard from him this season.

First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 2
This note includes a spoiler. I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 2 twice. 7/10. This episode was again from the point of view of Eris, or rather, Nina. It seemed Nina spent her whole life on swords, and I guess because of that, she hated losing to Eris. She even tried to find and meet Rudeus because she didn't want to admit he was real, or because she somehow thought she could've beaten him. But after seeing him, it looked like she changed her mind, and her opinion of Eris changed a little. Probably because he was so exceptional and she couldn't imagine even Eris catching up with him. So she might've felt Eris's goal was impossible and the hurdle was too high. It also showed how she and the other members of the Sword God Style didn't know the outside world.

First thoughts after watching Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 Episode 1
This note includes a spoiler. I watched Jobless Reincarnation season 3 episode 1 twice. 8/10. This episode was completely from Eris's point of view. I actually knew this part of the story because I think I read the manga for it. So I knew what Eris thought and why she left Rudeus behind, but I didn't remember the details. It was great how desperate she was and she really wanted to be strong. Honestly, she wasn't the type of girl who talks a lot, so I just needed to watch and feel. But after watching it back, I noticed she followed what the Sword God said and did what he instructed her to do. Also, I thought Ghislaine had gone back somewhere because she didn't train Eris, but she was in the Sword God's house. I wondered why. But maybe she followed what her master, the Sword God, said.

First thoughts after watching I Made Friends with the Second Prettiest Girl in My Class Episode 12
This note includes a spoiler. I watched I Made Friends with the Second Prettiest Girl in My Class episode 12. And this was the last episode of season 1. This episode was 6/10, and the entire season was 8/10. This was a great romance anime. This episode covered a few events for Maki and Umi before closing the season, and also showed there might be a next season. The last episode ended at the beginning of the year, but this episode showed Valentine's Day, White Day, and Umi's birthday. On Valentine's Day, what I thought was that Maki's cooking skill was actually good, so how could she give him a chocolate he would be satisfied with? And in this episode, it was revealed that Umi's cooking skill was not good, or at least she didn't cook often. So she tried to cook something difficult and challenging from the beginning, and failed to do it. I thought Maki should help her make the chocolate together, and he did it so I was kinda satisfied with this small touch.

First thoughts after watching I Made Friends with the Second Prettiest Girl in My Class Episode 11
This note includes a spoiler. I watched I Made Friends with the Second Prettiest Girl in My Class episode 11. 7/10. This episode was on the day after Maki and Umi started dating, and Maki caught a cold and stayed at Umi's house for a week until the end of the year. What was good was, unlike typical anime, Umi didn't get a cold. If this were another anime, then Maki's cold would have infected her too. It was great it didn't go that way.

First thoughts after watching Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 24 (season 2, episode 12)
This post includes a spoiler. I watched Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 24 twice. 5/10. Story was 3/5, animation was 3/5, voices and audio were 3/5. This episode was the last episode of season 2, and it was more like cooling down than a hot fighting episode. The most unexpected thing was that Will didn't join the ice faction. I completely expected him to be there, so it was a total surprise to me. At the same time, it made sense, since this way the story can involve not only Elfie but also other Magia Vanders or people in other factions. I thought Will would have the final say on which faction he would join, but from Aaron's perspective, his will counted for nothing.

First thoughts after watching Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 23 (season 2, episode 11)
This post includes a spoiler. I watched Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 23 twice. 9/10. Story was 5/5, animation was 5/5, voices and audio were 4/5. This was a great episode. The main thing was the battle between Zeo and Elfie. This episode showed how fierce the battle was between two Magia Vanders. And obviously, Ellenor lost to Elfie with ice magic alone, so they both seemed strong. So, the battle was basically one between the cream of the crop and it was worth watching. Zeo's attacks were mostly simple. He used his lightning to move blazing fast, but that was so fast that the animation got good. Like when he threw the wand and then he instantly reached the place where the wand landed, or when the wand came and broke Elfie's clone from an unexpected angle.

First thoughts after watching Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 22 (season 2, episode 10)
This post includes a spoiler. I watched Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 22 twice. 7/10. Story was 4/5, animation was 3/5, voices and audio were 3/5. I was wondering who Cerridwen was. It sounded like Caldron, and now here she was — she was surely Cerridwen. I should've been more confident that it was her, and it made sense that she put in the effort to make Will climb the tower. Because otherwise, it was irresponsible that she just chose him over others' objections to make him climb, and he ended up being a guinea pig. Although, she had so much free time that she didn't have to work as the head of the academy lol But now, it was the opposite. Cerridwen was her true form, and Caldron was a disguise she kept up with aging magic.

First thoughts after watching Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 21 (season 2, episode 9)
This post includes a spoiler. I watched Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 21 twice. 7/10. Story was 4/5, animation was 4/5, voices and audio were 3/5. Well, this episode was about one day in Will's past. And he slept almost an entire day until the next Bloom. It was a good episode in that it showed Elfie being saved by Will, and that was one reason she loves him. But even before that, she liked him a lot for some reason. There might be more episodes about Elfie and Will in the future.

First thoughts after watching Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 20 (season 2, episode 8)
This post includes a spoiler. I watched Wistoria: Wand and Sword episode 20 twice. 6/10. Story was 3/5, animation was 3/5, voices and audio were 3/5. This was just preparation for the Second Bloom, and I didn't have many thoughts. The main topic in this episode was more like, what was Wis? Wis was an unknown kind of magic and many people didn't know the details, and there was no book describing it. I guess that was inherited from his ancestors over 500 years and he got that power, but it was still unclear what it was.
