Cardcaptor Sakura has returned. Twenty years have passed
since the first episode of CCS was broadcasted. The same
main staff and cast have also gathered that I didn't expect.
Especially TANGE Sakura who was Sakura's VA of the original
series was seemed to have retired long ago. New OP song is
sang by SAKAMOTO Maaya again and it's charming. KANNO Yoko
didn't compose the OP though.

This is the list of my ratings to new shows based on every
first episode. Most of proper nouns in this list are my
guess instead of official ones.

Ratings may vary episode by episode.
The number isn't the rank but only a sequence for
convenience. Sorted by stars.

Indication:
[for k:kids, s:shoujo, g:grown-ups]
(studio/production)
*:fair, **:enjoyable, ***:must see
a:good animation/artwork, d:good drama/story,
h:humorous/hilarious, m:good music, v:violent,
w:heartwarming, +:outstanding (e.g. a+ means
outstanding animation/artwork)

1) Ryuou no Oshigoto! (project No.9): ***, adh+
Yaichi, sixteen, wins the biggest shogi title Ryuou. One
day Ai, nine, visits his apartment to be his apprentice.
She is too young and Yaichi defeats her on a trial to make
her back home. However she is surprisingly potent and he
enjoys playing a game. He decides to fulfill her wish.
NOTE: There are two traditional board games of profession
in Japan: Go and Shogi. Shogi and Chess share the origin
in an ancient India's game, but Shogi evolves into very
complex and different game over time. Currently, the
youngest Shogi professional is FUJII Sota, fifteen. He
made a new record in the history by 29 consecutive wins
last year. It's amazing that he defeated a title holder
SATO Amahiko "Meijin" last week. Fujii still keeps the
highest win rate of 85% in this season.
2) Sora yorimo tooi Basho [s](MAD House): ***, adh
Mari wants something deserve to venture her adolescence.
By chance, she comes to know Shirase who plans to go to

to support her.

3) Violet Evergarden (Kyoto animation): **, a+d
Violet was raised as a weapon and survived from a war where
her master got a fatal injury. Violet lost her arms and got
robotic arms. By a kind support of her gardian Hocchins,
she begins to work as a letter writing doll for customers.
Because she wants to know what exeactly her master meant
to say the last time.
4) Darling In The Franxx (Trigger + A-1 Pictures): **, a+d
Hiro is a cadet of an operator/parasite of a big mecha
Franxx (pronuncing as frank-kiss!?). The mecha needs a boy
operator and a girl as his connector to the mecha. Hiro
fails to connect the mecha via his partner Ichigo. A girl
strays into their field, and a large mecha dragon appeares
out of the blue. Hiro and the girl connect a Franxx and
destroys the dragon. This show looks like a remake of EVA.
Even studio χαρα (pronuncing ka-la) that ANNO Hideaki
founded is involved in the production.
5) Koi wa Ameagari no youni [s](WIT studio): **, adh
Akira suspends her club activity since her leg got injured.

was feeding soup to a big white bird but it stopped to visit
her home years ago. After they spent hours on top of the
mountain, they take the soup for a break. Suddenly, a huge
raptor comes down to their back and brings them back to her
house. It's the bird she was feeding.
7) Toji no Miko (Gokumi): **, d+
