Currently rewatching Burn Notice,with our 12yo daughter this time
I forgot how good it is. Strange how so many people don't seem to have heard of it. It's in Disney+ now, for those interested.
Now I'm binge watching, rather than training, as I had planned.

🧵 - 9/9: Mirai Keisatsu Urashiman
A show from the 80s that I remember vividly as a highlight of the german afternoon program during the middle of the 90s under the name Rock'n Cop.
The show follows Rico, who is transported into the future with his cat and his VW Beetle.
Rico loses his memory during the time travel (very creative!!) and joins a police special force in the future, always looking for clues about his past.
The main character Rico shares a lot of similarities in his behavior with the (infamous) City Hunter. It's something you have to consider if you watch it 
🧵 - 8/9: Flying Witch
The perfect Slice-of-Life show doesn't exist? Well, you are wrong because Flying Witch does exist!
The Series by J.C.Staff was released in 2016 and follows the apprentice witch Makoto during her time of self-study, which she's spending living with her relatives in the countryside.
The episodes all revolve around very mundane things... spiced up with some magic. 
It feels a lot like a modern take on Kiki's Delivery Service.
🧵 - 7/9: Lu Over The Wall
Lu Over The Wall is the only movie on the list. It was released in 2017 and was directed by the exceptional Masaaki Yuasa. Even with such a big director, the movie deserves to be on the list because it's often overshadowed by his other works.
The Anime is a cute experience for the whole family. A coming-of-age movie somewhere between Disney and a fever dream.
The Anime not only features Yuasas creative and unconventional animation style and flow but also an amazing soundtrack by Takatsugu Muramatsu.
🧵 - 6/9: Suisei no Gargantia
There can be no list without a Mecha show!
Suisei no Gargantia was released in 2013 by Production I.G. and has 13 episodes.
The Anime takes place in a distant future. Earth is completely flooded, and humanity went into space.
While fighting aliens in space, the main character Ledo landed on earth for the first time with his mech. He gets involved with some locals, living on a big base in the ocean.
The meeting with Amy, a girl living on the base, will change Ledos life forever. The emotionless soldier finally learns to enjoy life.
Also... the OP is a bop!
🧵 - 5/9: Grimgar, Ashes and Illusions
Should I really include this show? It was released only a few years ago (2016) by a big studio (A-1 Pictures) and is part of one of the most popular sub-genres right now (Isekai).
I know, I know!! It's still worth praising because it's by far one of the best Isekai released until today. Yes, Slime is amazing, Mushoku is a lot of fun, and other people even enjoy Re:Zero, but no other show is as heartfelt and touching as the melancholic Isekai that is Grimgar. It deserves so much more attention.
Also... the art style is top-notch!!
The plot is also excellent (It's a joke!!):
🧵 - 4/9 Honobono Log
Not only one of the sweetest, but by far my favorite short form Anime.
The Slice-of-Life show doesn't follow a big plot. Instead, we're getting a look into 10 short moments of different relationships. Every episode is only ~2 minutes long, but a lot of them managed to touch me like their 24-minute-long siblings.
There isn't much I can tell you. It's sweet! It's short! The art is super cute! Watch it!
🧵 - 3/9: Attack No.1
The reason we have sports anime today!! Well, the statement may be a bit ambitious, but I believe it's at least somewhat true! 
Attack No. 1 was the first sports anime targeted at a female audience and is based on a Manga that used the volleyball hype in Japan after winning gold in the 1964 Olympics. It has a whooping 104 episodes and was a big deal in my youth.
Attack No.1 was one of the first big Anime that aired in germany, and I bet EVERYONE that is part of my generation can still sing the whole opening from memory.
Just to showcase germanys obsession:
