I've been really enjoying Sousou no Frieren and by enjoying I mean feeling like I want to cry.

I'll need to find something more upbeat next.

Vlad Love was Mamoru Oshii first return to Anime in about a decade, and he was given almost unprecedented control over the entire production, and it absolutely rocked. If you like Invader Lum, or even if you just like Patlabor, it's really worth watching. at times, it will be one of the most bizarre shows you've ever seen. the Animation feels both super cheap, and somehow still super captivating, lots of water-color backgrounds, I heard it's completely Hand drawn (except for the live action footage. Yes, it uses live action stock footage, another reason it feels congenially cheap).

Basic synopsis is that a gremlinish lesbian with a blood donation fetish meets a starving vampire girl who refuses to drink from the unwilling, and creates a blood donation club with classmates, who implausibly also have a blood fetish, to keep her satisfied.
