Hunter x Hunter 2011 13! recap already? Zzzz...crossing my fingers for new theme songs next week...something cute.

Kimi to Boku 13! the end of season 1. The boys visit their kindergarten as a part of a career training field trip. Revisiting the beginning of the anime; it's a circle! The kids drag them into their playtime. This was a rose-colored slice-of-life series which was light-hearted enough to make me smile each week. It wasn't comedic genius or as sweet as Usagi Drop. The random cat scenes and background music made it a little unique in a quiet way. ~7/10 rating~ for a well-told manga-to-anime series; downside is that it hasn't convinced me to read the manga.

Fate/Zero 13! the end of this season. And what a cruel send-off; right at the start of a battle. This was my favorite series this fall. Thoughtful dialogue, really good visuals at times especially during the battles, interesting character development, and great suspense building. While I expected to like Mawaru Penguindrum, I almost dropped Fate/Zero, fortunately did not, and ended up liking it more than Penguindrum. The only thing that mars this series is the fact that it prompted me to watch Fate/Stay which was horribly disappointing. Advice: skim Fate/Stay's wiki page, avoid anime. ~9/10 rating~ <3 Rider; he was obviously the lead in this anime.
Last Exile: Ginyoku no Fam 11! So the little girl in the opening is Alvis (Are they saving Klaus's cameo for the end?). I though the title 'Last Exile' meant that there was only one Exile. Anyway, Alvis is on Turan's side. Now both sides have an Exile user. A supposedly brainwashed Liliana with the Federation visits Millia to declare an end to the war, but ends up attacking the Silvius. The animation and progression of the episode were pretty horrible. Did the regular crew take a holiday vacation?
