Elf is better as half-length episodes

Agreed. It's cute and goofy, but nothing really goes anywhere. It's the classic sitcom formula where everything ends up back where it started every time, there's no real plot, it's just a bunch of jokes, and I just like watching everyone pick on each other.

Apothecary Diaries is on my list so I may have to check that out. The others sound like solid recommendations also.

My gf didn't seem to get the humor of the old Trigun series. She did get interested in the new one after being in the room with me watching a few eps of that. I was very leary about the remake as the original is one of the first animes I got really into.

I've been watching some older 90s movies and revisiting early Gintama again a bit, and it's been a nice break. I've played a bit with emulators recently too. I put Lemuroid on my phone and have been doing a little Tetris and Link's Awakening. I figured out how to pair a PS4 controller, so maybe I should start bringing that with me. Being able to save anywhere takes out a lot of frustration for me.

I still look forward to the weekly check in here though. I'm surprised the anime scene here is as quiet as it is, so I like to participate to help keep what we do have going. I appreciate all the work you put in here!
