This meeting and working together with Seiko changes something in Mai, and she decides that maybe it&#8217;s not yet time to quit the police force already.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended by <a href=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.nl\/en\/author\/anvica\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Anvica<\/a>:<br \/>\n<\/strong>I recommend this show because it has a nice renewing vibe to it. Two main characters that are on the opposite side of views starting to work together is not really a new trope but, it being about a police station with two women as the main characters have a nice ring to it. It&#8217;s a comedy and slice of life series oriented towards adults which seems to give off a comfortable feeling, so it is enjoyable for everyone.<\/p>\n<h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-73750\" src=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Slow-Loop.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"320\" \/>Slow Loop (\u30b9\u30ed\u30fc\u30eb\u30fc\u30d7)<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Type:<\/strong> Anime<br \/>\n<strong>Studio:<\/strong> Connect<br \/>\n<strong>Genres:<\/strong> Slice of Life, Sports<br \/>\n<em>Based on the eponymous manga by Maiko Uchino<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Starts airing:<\/strong> January 7<sup>th<br \/>\n<\/sup><strong>Number of Episodes:<\/strong> Unknown<\/p>\n<p>Hiyori and Koharu meet by chance at sea, while fishing and cooking together Koharu discovers that Hiyori went fishing that day due to her feelings of hesitation about meeting her new family\u2026 But Koharu is also meeting her new family that same evening\u2026 is it a coincidence\u2026?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended by <a href=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.nl\/en\/author\/phx\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PHX<\/a>:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Adapted from a manga of the same name that was released in 2018, this anime seems like it will provide a good number of feel-good vibes and humour, something that I think everyone could use right now.

It started as a mobile game named <em>Girls Frontline<\/em> in China, which then grew out all over the world. In Japan, the game was released as <em>Dolls&#8217; Frontline<\/em> due to copyright. It\u2019s also a prequel to a different game and two other short anime about it were released. My interest is also sparked as I like to learn about guns and history and all the girls in the anime are personifications of the guns they are named after.<\/p>\n<h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-73762\" src=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Orient.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"318\" \/>Orient (\u30aa\u30ea\u30a8\u30f3\u30c8)<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Type:<\/strong> Anime<br \/>\n<strong>Studio:<\/strong> A.C.G.T.<br \/>\n<strong>Genres:<\/strong> Action, Fantasy<br \/>\n<em>Based on the eponymous manga by Shinobu Ohtaka<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Starts airing:<\/strong> January 6<sup>th<\/sup><br \/>\n<strong>Number of Episodes:<\/strong> Unknown<\/p>\n<p>Two friends, Musashi and Kojirou, make a promise to become samurai and take on demon-slaying missions.

With demons being suddenly worshipped, already questions come to mind about whether the demons are good or bad. Between the friendship, fighting for a dream, and actual combat, it is a very typical shonen plot that I love. The manga is also serialized in the same publication that releases the popular <em>Tokyo Revengers<\/em>, the plot is sure to be of high quality.<\/p>\n<h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-73764\" src=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Totsukuni-no-Shoujo-OVA.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"318\" \/>Totsukuni no Shoujo OVA (\u3068\u3064\u304f\u306b\u306e\u5c11\u5973)<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Type:<\/strong> OVA<br \/>\n<strong>Studio:<\/strong> Wit Studio<br \/>\n<strong>Genres:<\/strong> Supernatural<br \/>\n<em>Based on the eponymous manga by Nagabe<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Starts airing:<\/strong> March 10<sup>th<br \/>\n<\/sup><strong>Number of episodes:<\/strong> 1<\/p>\n<p>This OVA continues the 2019 OVA and is bundled with the special edition of the manga\u2019s side story.<\/p>\n<p>The story starts long ago with a god of light and a god of darkness. The god of light and his followers experience happiness and good fortune, while the god of darkness would steal people their joy and make their life miserable. The god of light decides on punishing him and turns him into a monster and the god of darkness is eventually banished to the Outside.

Something in the form of the Dark person attracted me, as well the simplicity of the art shown.
