With two episodes available on Netflix I decided to check out Blue Period. While I'm not huge on slice-of-life anime, I'd read some positive reviews around the first episode and was interested. But is Blue Period worth watching?

Honestly, The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window gets better every week (which given the opening episode had a number of glaring issues can only be a good thing).

Taishou Otome Fairytale mixes your standard cute moments of boy and girl living together with some heavy family trauma. So far it is kind of working. So how was this first episode?
