Across 62 episodes, spanning four seasons, Durarara!! has established its Ikebukuro as a vibrant world that genuinely feels alive. That being said, I would feel remiss if I didn’t address Durarara!! and what it managed to accomplish. Konosuba is really just a gem, and it deserves mentioning. The show has its share of male gaze tropes that rub me the wrong way, but I’m usually laughing too hard from prior scene to let these bother me too much. It honestly reminds me of 8-bit Theater more than anything else: a cast of lovable and sometimes oblivious assholes that cause more damage than they could ever hope to stop. The main four characters are all self-absorbed jerks whose minimal regard for their friends can get tossed aside at any given moment in favor of their own self-interest. I love this entire cast of stupid assholes.ĭescribing KonoSuba as a comedy of errors is not exactly correct, but it’s probably the closest I can get to describing what makes it sparkle for me. Then Season 2 came around while I was writing this list and refreshed my memories. I enjoyed it when it aired however, as time passed, I feel like I managed to convince myself that I some how didn’t, that it was not as funny as I thought, that it was not as enjoyable. It aired in January of 2016 and it’s been a while. KonoSuba: God’s Blessing on This Wonderful World! For your sake and mine, I’ve whittled it down to the shows that I have something to say about and the shows that brought me some happiness. My original list for this was in the ballpark of 21 shows. The one department where the year shined, however, was anime.
