I don't mind them, but Kumo's part of the story has so far been much more interesting.

To your eternity is good. Have watched some 6 eps and I like its immersive quality. I don't feel like consuming all at once, I can enjoy it at my leisure. Pretty nice intro too.

Yeah, the song is a killer, it's by Utada Hikaru, the same person who did this. The series is intriguing, sad and irritating at the same time (the characters can be very quirky). But overall it keeps me interested.
I want to wait until Higeru no Sora ends to rate it, but it's one of the best drama/slice of life I've watched in recent years.

* To Your Eternity minor spoilers *
I liked it up until recently when I realized what the anime is about. Whoever wrote / directed this set out to create likeable characters to take advantage of the audience's sympathy after which they end up dead. That's it. I erroneously thought that there would be a story, but that's not the focus. The focus is just to have arcs for some characters that the viewer will grow to take pity on and then they get killed. The guy in the current arc? I can almost smell his corpse. Give it 1 maybe 2 episodes more. And Fushi acts as an observer, with little to no impact on the outcome.
This makes me feel like I'm watching something superficial and I just can't agree with it.

You can ofc dislike the series approach, by I think that is actually its point. The series is about Fushi's growth due to experiencing various stimuli, and by definition, the biggest ones will be the most brutal ones. The narrator even states it on couple of occasions plus the opening literally throws it into you face that there will be a lot of deaths.
Personally I don't mind this formula, I think this is like a "short story" format similar to Kino no Tabi or Majo no tabitabi, while the Opening is intriguing enough to keep me interested (a cheap tactic on their side, but it works  ). I want to see how these story arcs unfold, even when you know the outcome in some cases. It's basically like an anthology where the main adhesive is Fushi.

To your eternity: Well.. Fushi being an immortal he is destined to outlive just about everyone it meets. Might as well spice things up.

It's back, at least partly. Did they restore history/tracking?

* Tokyo Revengers spoiler *
You guys know what to do with a dying person bleeding from a stab wound? Here's the Tokyo Revengers way: you scream that person's name out dramatically over and over again, you take a good 10 minutes look at them while muttering how pathetic and worthless you are, then realize that that person is not actually dead yet and start thinking about what to do, and finally decide to just give them a piggyback to the nearest hospital on foot on rainy weather.
This **** is infuriating.
* End spoilers *
One more episode and Kumo ends. Here's to hoping there won't be another lame arc like the current one ever again.
* To Your Eternity minor spoilers *
If Gugu dies, I'll rate this anime 5/10 and move on. Last episode was great up until the final 30 seconds. I'm afraid this will be the recurring theme of this story and I just can't stand it. Insert convenient enemy-out-of-nowhere here to ruin wholesome moments. Not for me.
On a side note, I don't particularly like the OP either.

Ok so spring season is slowly coming to an end. Seems summer season will be really weak. Ofc there's S2 od Dragon Maid which already highlights this season, but otherwise only a few continuations (Slime S2 part 2 for example) and only a handful of series that picked my interest somewhat:
Meikyuu Black Company
Night Head
Vanitas no Carte
Oh well.
Boku No Hero Academia has got a new OP by Man with a Mission which is always good (although this particular one is a standard piece for them I would say), but the best thing about it is that we're entering Meta Liberation Army arc which is probably the most badass one yet (and a curiousity as it focuses only on the villains). I'm hyped, hope it will be animated as well as this episode cus the action is top-notch.
What's left now is tommorow, as we will see the final episodes om my fav series this season:
Odd Taxi
Fruits Basket S3
Fumetsu no Anata e
Hige wo Soru Sosnowe
Maybe I'll sum it up somehow, but guess I already wrote about them before.
PS: I wonder why there was no new Kumo episode on friday...

I hear there's two weeks until the next episode from Hero Academia, maybe there's a holiday or something. Wouldn't pass it as a coincidence.
Yea, summer seems weak. Only 2 series catching my eyes so far. That's why... I may have a plan. Though there's also the two anime I watch from the current season that are rolling over, Tokyo Revengers and BHA. That's not that bad.
EDIT: Alright, I just might be crazy, but I've been thinking about this for a while and now I'm finally decided. No better time to do it than this summer. Holy ****, this is gonna be a hell of a ride. Wish me luck boys, I'm going iiinnnnnn!!

Yep, should've known it was coming.
Btw *Spoiler* a bit of a bummer that Fushi ages, but goes back to his original form if he transforms to sth different in the meantime. Maybe he'll eventually learn to control it if the OP is anything to go by? Like we see with the older version of March in the snapshots...*end*.
Btw I wonder why it's ranked higher then Odd Taxi which is a masterpiece while Eternity is also good but imo it's way below it. Probably because the latter is not that well known yet. Although the situation is dynamic as I see both series advanced in the rankings since last I checked.

Summer 2021 season and what do I pick first to watch?
Yet another ecchi harem comedy.
Megami-ryou no Ryoubo-kun.
homeless shota dork gets picked up and hired as a "dorm-mother" for a bunch of lewd waifus.
Classic.

I gave Darlin in the FranXX a shot. Pretty frustrating at first and through the middle and it redeemed itself somewhat before the end. I never thought I'd give it an 8/10, but here I am. The thing I liked the most about it was the community building aspect and character relationships. The story itself, the setting, the main characters and that ending were all pretty lackluster. It also reminded me of Stellaris, weirdly enough, but bonus points there. Overall satisfactory, but could've been better. Too many cliches, too much power of friendship, too much unnecessary drama.
