Every culture has their own personal figures of interest and for some reason Japan can't seem to get enough stories about the feudal warlord Oda Nobunaga. At least this season he is male in both of his showings this season.
Nobunaga the Fool
In an alternate past the the heavens are divided between east and west. The destiny of the heavens and earth might just change when an connection between two people, Oda Nobunaga and Joan of Arc, is formed. Normally I am not the most fervent of mecha fans but I found this show to be just the right combination of gonzo world elements and a protagonist with promise. Of the shows I have seen so far this is my favorite of the season.
Nobugun
Sio is a awkward girl who is a big military nut but doesn't have any friends. One day while she is on a school trip the city is attacked by aliens and she finds that because she has genes from Oda Nobunaga and thus is able to summon a magical Gatling gun. I found Nobugan to be a fairly bog standard action show but one with some promise. It is something that I will keep up with.
Tonari no Sekai kun
Seki is a student who loves to waste time in elaborate ways. He somehow manages to escape the attention of his teachers his classmate Yokoi sometimes manages to be caught simply by commenting on Seki's antics.This is one of the short shows that are generally comedies. I found this episode fairly funny although I could easily see this show repeating the same humor. Anyways it is only eight minutes long.
