Alt Title: Ya Boy Kongming!

Released: 2022

Do you ever start an anime with extremely low expectations and come out really enjoying the journey it took you on? Today I have been on that adventure. Normally I have a very set list that I use to help me figure out which anime I’m writing about, but today I was so surprised by Kongming, I watched the whole 12 episodes and had a swell time. This isn’t the kind of anime that grabs you with the first episode. It took me the first two episodes to really start getting into it, and the third episode really hooked me. Nevertheless, here is the story: 

Kongming is considered one of the greatest strategists for the Three Kingdoms period in China. After securing many victories, Kongming passes away. His final wish: be reborn in a more peaceful time. However, he wakes up on Halloween in a nightclub. His first thought: I am in hell. But after watching a captivating performance by Eiko, a young artist, Kongming is awestruck. With his passion in contemporary music secured, Kongming soon vows to help Eiko achieve her goals as her personal tactician.

Anime of the day: Binan Koukou Chikyuu Bouei-bu Love!

Alt Title: Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!

Released: 2015

Please stop here. You need this anime in your life.

Magic girls can go shove off, because we have magical boys! And it’s not like the boys turn into girls, no they wear their adorable magic with pride! A magical pink wombat gives a group of five boys magic powers and now they must defend the world from lovelessness. They fight against a green hedgehog and his cronies. And they fight some super strange enemies. If you’re looking for something serious you should do it elsewhere because this anime is nothing but a fun blast of 12 episodes. BUT WAIT there’s more. The sequel includes 12 more episodes of these defenders, defending the world with love. I really liked this show. It’s sad that I didn’t find it till after it aired. The characters would also make an adorable cosplay so like there is that. To find all the music from this anime is super easy, just look up “Earth Defence Club” on Spotify. The opening, “絶対無敵☆Fallin’ LOVE☆” is on my playlist. It’s a bop. Everything is a bop with this anime.
