Summer season is drawing to a close. Most shows have either wrapped up last week or are wrapping up this week. So, let's talk about it! Did anything surprise you? disappoint you? exceed your expectations? Of course, more general topics are still welcome just like any week.

Favourite of the season: Oshi no Ko without competition, the animation quality and story were both amazing! There were some scenes that go so hard that I'm sure they're still going to be talked about for years.

Biggest disappointment: Tower of God S2. I really looked forward to this, but the story didn't pick up until the final two episodes of the first cour :/ The animation quality was also pretty mid. I'm still looking forward to the second half though..

Kinda meh: Elusive Samurai. At first, I got pulled in by the fantastic animation and interesting premise, but the follow-up didn't really live up to the initial hype. It's still entertaining to watch though, even if I think the way the protag is portrayed and treated by the cast is kinda...sus, sometimes
