Weekend is over and so are some Winter seasonals.

Sugar Apple Fairy Tale is a fun shoujo fantasy with an enjoyable protagonist. I like how she's a good person, but is sometimes willing to do some bad things, particularly early on. I think the show dumps on her a bit too much though. She suffers a lot, and the people who cause her to suffer often get away with it, which can be unsatisfying. Will still watch S2 though (especially since S1 ended with a bit of a cliffhanger).

Also finished this. "Bad things"?....oh, right. Yeah, this show has slavery in it, and despite despising it, the FeMC does partake in it. She has to, though, and she's super nice to her slave, and she's not buying him to have sex with him, like the guys in Redo of Healer or Slave Harem in the Labyrinth. Although he is the main love interest. So if you can get past that, it is a nice show.

Chillin' in My 30s after Getting Fired from the Demon King's Army is another "dude gets kicked out of his fantasy party because he's weak but he is actually OP and now lives a slow life" show. I didn't watch last season's Beast Tamer, but I did watch most of Banished from the Hero's Party that aired over a year ago, and I much preferred this. MC being OP is kind of annoying, but it works. I love the family stuff and the author clearly loves boobs. Honestly, I feel like I should like it more than I do, but I don't. It's just solid.

Season 2 of By the Grace of the Gods was...fine. Guy is isekai'd, becomes a slime master, and starts and runs a business. It's very low stakes and, truth be told, pretty boring. I don't hate it, but I preferred season 1

Lastly, Nijiyon Animation. It's just 3 minute shorts with the cast from Love Live Nijigasaki. They're cute but not very substantive.
