Genre:<\/strong>\u00a0Vampire, Romantic-Comedy, Action<\/p>\n Studio:\u00a0<\/strong>LIDENFILMS<\/p>\n Release date:\u00a0<\/strong>July 8, 2022<\/p>\n Non-spoiler plot summary:<\/strong>\u00a0Disillusioned with his young life, middle schooler Kou stops going to school and begins wandering the streets at night. It\u2019s during one such excursion that he meets Nazuna, a vampire who spends her time gaming (and giving massages to make ends meet). Dazzled by the freedom she has in her life, Kou decides he wants to become a vampire too. There\u2019s just one problem: to become a vampire he must first fall in love with one\u2014and neither he nor Nazuna have any real idea about what \u201clove\u201d truly is.<\/p>\n Why I\u2019m excited:\u00a0<\/strong>Growing up, my first job was a paper route. Each morning at 3am, I\u2019d wake up and walk the streets, folding and throwing papers. It was a somewhat surreal experience. Busy streets deserted, all the windows dark\u2014it truly felt like I was the only person in the world. This is the story of someone the same age that I was discovering this strange world that exists alongside the waking world. Add to this a fun supernatural vampire story alongside a coming-of-age tale about two people trying to understand love and you get a show with both heart and depth.<\/p>\n Watch It If You Like:\u00a0<\/strong>Monogatari Series<\/em>,<\/strong><\/p>\n Where You Can Watch It:<\/strong>\u00a0HIDIVE<\/a><\/p>\n Genre:<\/strong>\u00a0Reverse Isekai, Comedy<\/p>\n Studio: <\/strong>Studio 3Hz<\/p>\n Release date:\u00a0<\/strong>July 14, 2022<\/p>\n Non-spoiler plot summary:<\/strong>\u00a0After his defeat by the hero Emilia, Demon King Satan escapes through a magical portal to our world. With his magic power all but depleted, he takes a job at popular fast-food chain MgRonald’s to make ends meet. Soon he become fixated on conquering this world he has found himself upon\u2014not through violent conquest but through climbing the corporate ladder by being the best damn employee the company has ever seen.<\/p>\n Why I\u2019m excited:<\/strong>\u00a0While there\u2019s a ton of great comedy to be found in The Devil is a Part-Timer!<\/em>, there\u2019s also a fair bit of fantasy deconstruction going on as well. Emilia may be the hero, just and strong, but humans in general are anything but pure good and the demons anything but pure evil\u2014Satan included. And with both the hero and demon king absent from the fantasy world, the dark underbelly of that world seems to keep bubbling to the surface\u2014making the two former enemies the only thing capable of saving not only their world but likely ours as well. And now with a mysterious child entering the picture, who\u2019s to say what is to come.<\/p>\n Watch It If You Like:\u00a0<\/strong>Miss Kobayashi\u2019s Dragon Maid, The Great Jahy Will Not Be Defeated!, Gabriel DropOut<\/em><\/p>\n Where You Can Watch It:<\/strong>\u00a0TBA<\/p>\n Genre:<\/strong>\u00a0Gambling, Psychological<\/p>\n Studio:\u00a0<\/strong>MAPPA<\/p>\n Release date: <\/strong>August 4, 2022<\/p>\n Non-spoiler plot summary:<\/strong>\u00a0Mary is a bright young girl from a normal family. Little does she know the high school she is attending has become twisted\u2014a place where classes aren\u2019t important and all that matters is how good of a gambler you are. Of course, as Mary is quick to learn, while there are games of chance aplenty, few of them are fair\u2014and a lifetime of slavery awaits those who can\u2019t cover their debts.<\/p>\n Why I\u2019m excited:\u00a0<\/strong>When we first meet Mary in the original Kakagurui, she is already the queen bitch of her class. Jaded and cruel, she rules over the others with an iron fist. But what took a normal young girl and twisted her into that form? This is that story. But more than that, this anime is set to add some much-needed context to the main anime. To see what Mary is becoming there, we need to first see what she once was\u2014what broke her\u2014so that her experiences with Yumeko could reforge her anew.<\/p>\n Watch It If You Like:\u00a0<\/strong>Kakegurui, Death Parade, No Game No Life, Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor<\/em><\/p>\n Where You Can Watch It:<\/strong>\u00a0Netflix<\/a><\/p>\n Genre:<\/strong>\u00a0Reincarnated in a Fantasy World<\/p>\n Studio:\u00a0<\/strong>Madhouse<\/p>\n Release date:\u00a0<\/strong>July 5, 2022<\/p>\n Non-spoiler plot summary:<\/strong>\u00a0Transported to a fantasy world and reborn in the body of his MMORPG character (alongside his fortress filled with evil NPCs), Ainz Ooal Gown has attempted to lie low and learn about the world. But now, he and his forces are out in the open\u2014having shown the world that if they choose to fight him, they will have unearthly horrors released upon them. Yet, that hasn\u2019t stopped the inhabitants of this world from conspiring\u2014some to use him and others to destroy him. And it\u2019s only a matter of time till they make their moves.<\/p>\n Why I\u2019m excited:\u00a0<\/strong>While this isn\u2019t exactly the most epic or interesting arc of Overlord<\/em>, it does set the stage for what is to come (which is unquestionably the best arc in the series). We also get a lot of what we had early on with Ainz himself taking center stage\u2014going on his own adventures and accidently acting as the perfect demon lord that everyone either fears or admires. In other words, it\u2019s more Overlord<\/em>.

Each of the countries has an academy for training young hunters and huntresses to be capable of fighting the Grimm through a combination of technology and magic. It\u2019s in one such school, Beacon Academy, that our story takes place\u2014where four young women begin their journey to one day save their entire world.<\/p>\n Why I\u2019m excited:\u00a0<\/strong>The original RWBY <\/em>is what happens when a group of American anime fans try to make their own anime\u2014finding great success in the process. With Ice Queendom,<\/em> this anime-inspired cartoon is being remade by an actual Japanese anime studio. But more than that, the creators behind this adaptation are some of the biggest names in anime\u2014i.e., the minds that brought us Psycho-Pass <\/em>among many other critically acclaimed works. It will be fascinating to see what happens when this anime ouroboros finally hits the airwaves.<\/p>\n Watch It If You Like:\u00a0<\/strong>RWBY<\/em><\/p>\n Where You Can Watch It:<\/strong>\u00a0Crunchyroll <\/a><\/p>\n Top image source: \u300e\u3088\u3075\u304b\u3057\u306e\u3046\u305f\u300fTV\u30a2\u30cb\u30e1\u516c\u5f0f<\/a> on Twitter.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/FLnLn3fVcAMUj79.jpg?w=700&ssl=1\")
