Non Non Biyori https://myanimelist.net/anime/17549/Non_Non_Biyori Non Non Biyori is a serene slice of life comedy about a group of kids who live in the country side. The show current has two seasons. The second one is not a sequel but it takes the first season and gives up more information of the events that happened. The cast of the show is interesting because each of the girls varies wildly in ages. The interactions between them almost border on them being more a family than simply friends. While each person is going to have their favorite character mine is undoubtedly Renge. She's a first grader with the catchphrase "nyanpasu". It's just that her facial expressions are pretty spot on all the time. The comedy is pretty good. It's not like laugh all the time funny, but more that's cute type funny. I think a big part of the appeal of the show is a lot of the things that happen in the show are things that I might have done with my friends. A lot of the show is mundane, but made fun by the characters in it. There are some scenes though that had me rolling, like the fireworks one in the second season. Non Non Biyori is a real feel good anime that I think is easy to enjoy. It's very accessible and doesn't have anything that might make a potential viewer shy away. 40. Girls Und Panzer https://myanimelist.net/anime/14131/Girls_und_Panzer Girls Und Panzer mixes two things that go together very naturally. Moe schoolgirls and Tanks. The story is rather simple. In this day and age it is the lady-like thing to drive vehicles of mass destruction. Each school has its own tank club which wages "war" with other schools in battles of panzerfen. However, the tank battles are amazing. Each episode has this odd mix of tension and moe that seem to be balanced perfectly. It's always interesting to see how the undertanked and under experienced Oarai Girls Academy uses strategy to win their matches. The characters are all pretty decent. None of them except Miho (who starts off by hating tank operating for story reasons) get any development, but they all have a certain charm to them. A lot of them are rather cliched, but mesh together very well. The antagonist (other school) characters are varied and each represents a different country and brings new obstacles for the characters. No tank battle is the same! The animation is kinda middling. In the first episode (among the only episodes with no tank battles) there is not really much to see, but parts of the tank battle they really used more of the budget on it especially later on as the show gained a lot of traction in Japan. The music that plays is very military (like anthem like or old patriotic stuff) which usually represents the country they are fighting. It's not spectacular, but fits very well. Girls Und Panzer hits most of its targets. It has an inoffensive cast and compelling tank battles. The quality of episodes stays the same or gets better with each one meaning there is not a lot of let down as far as the show goes. I salute this anime. --- Kokoro's Anime Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaIA0gY11FQ_Zh6kLSam5OA Updated: July 27th, 2016. <cite>KokoroAkechi posted [p:886936057] in Kokoro's t...
