Magi 7! Aladdin and Morgiana meet happy-go-lucky Sinbad who is already an accomplished king with seven djinn. They also finally meet up with Alibaba who now leads a group of thieves. Storywise, the time that has past doesn't feel as long as it should...It's only 4 episodes since Aladdin has seen Alibaba. Sinbad reminds me of En-Ou from Juuni Kokki; feels like a playboy, powerful, beloved by his servants...time for the newbies to learn something.
Hunter x Hunter 2012 56! Kurapika x Phantom Troupe showdown comes closer. Gon and Killua get caught as a distraction. Good stuff.
Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun 7-8! This is actually getting better as the show progresses. So far it hasn't fallen into any shoujo genre traps; angst, excessive misunderstanding, annoying third-parties. There's really no progress in these episodes, but they are still cute.
Psycho-Pass 6! The cops try to figure out who is pulling the strings behind the recent crimes while something creepy is happening at an all-girls school.
Zetsuen no Tempest 7! A few flashbacks to Yoshino's relationship with Aika. Dramatic background music is dramatic. I don't know enough of Shakespeare to figure out which one is Hamlet, but both Yoshino and Mashiro seem equally likely to die...or wait, don't most of the characters die in Hamlet?
