@ -32,24 +32,14 @@ besides Ghibli i've enjoyed a few other short-running anime/films:
<br /> deconstruction of the "magical girl" genre. starts out slow and mysterious, then accelerates through some ambitious twists as you and the characters begin to learn what's *really* happening in the world. watch it if you're a softie who likes bittersweet (but satisfying) endings.
- Made in Abyss
<br /> amazing character- and world-building, great artwork, and an adventure-driven -- but dark -- plot that left me contemplative.
- Frieren
<br /> proves that there's space for slow-paced, reflective story-telling.
- Kill la Kill
<br /> unbelievably over-the-top, tropey, and a bit low-budget, but Studio Trigger leans into these things and makes something that's _so absurd_ you can't forget it.
cartoons:
- Bravest Warriors
<br /> it's what you'd get if you were to squash Adventure Time into 4-5 minute episodes. witty and fast-paced humor. like Nichijou, it's simply the best in its class.
TV:
- Who's Line is it Anyway?
<br /> peak improv. Ryan Stiles, Colin Mochrie, Wayne Brady riffing off each other and the audience week after week.
- The Expanse
<br /> sci-fi series with a great production centered in a harsh world with a bit of everything, set off by a sudden new discovery. a bunch of players stuck in political games they don't know how to escape. it's a wonder we've made it this far.
runners up:
- A Place Further Than The Universe
<br /> a short exploration into making sense of death and finding purpose when you have nothing to anchor to. will make you cry.
- Yuru Camp
<br /> cozy series to relax to. a laid-back story of friendship and self-discovery.
- Nichijou
<br /> short, hilarious and sometimes over-the-top skits which build on eachother over time. good, simple fun. it's a crowded genre but Nichijou is the best in class.
- Zombieland Saga
