So I was recently rewatching Princess Tutu (again), and I finally came up with five episodes I’m content to declare as favorites (which is way harder than it was with Fruits Basket due to the far more consistent quality). These aren’t necessarily the “best” (they’re not even always the ones I most enjoy, as that often fluctuates with my mood), but I certainly enjoy them a lot every time I watch them. Read more

My Favorite Fruits Basket episodes
So I haven’t been writing as much as I should be lately, so I figured I’d just write something completely for fun to get me back in the swing if things!
