Dragon Quest Episode 4 is the best so far. Fantastic animated fight scenes and a welcome does of heightened stakes push the show off of its plateau.

Fire Force Episode 17 sees the combined efforts of Station 8, the White Clads and Haijima struggle to stop Nataku from causing a calamity.

Noblesse Episode 3 brought back some of the fun by focusing on the supporting cast. Ideally, this is the start of a slow climb back up to enjoyable.

Yashahime: Princess Half Demon is getting frustratingly more difficult to enjoy the more “wink-wink, nudge-nudge” it becomes about certain topics.

Jujutsu Kaisen Episode 4 sees Itadori, Fushiguro and Kugisaki clad onto the scene of curse attack. One that could potentially be a special grade.

Millionaire Detective: Balance Unlimited is an incredible detective drama with nuanced character development and amazing action.

Dragon Quest Episode 3 has a training arc that doesn’t have much spice, and the show is so paint-by-the-numbers it is unlikely to attract many new fans.

Fire Force Episode 16 sees the three way battle between Station 8, Haijima and the Evangelist’s followers for the sixth pillar continue.

After having so much fun in the first episode, Noblesse Episode 2 rehashed too many gags and failed to deepen any relationships between characters.

Yashahime Episode 3 delivers what was promised: a heartbreaking reunion and satisfying battle; but still leaves viewers with more questions than answers.
