The premise of these reviews is simple: watch the first episode of a series and then immediately sit down to record a review mini-podcast. The reviews are five- to ten-minutes long and entirely off the cuff. As always we only review new shows (so no sequels or continuations) and try to avoid anything that just looks outright awful.
These are the first batch from the new season and now we’ve broken them into (helpful?) categories:

The book and the drama of The Perfect Insider are still (relatively) fresh in my head, and I thought the first episode did a good job at bringing the world and its chatty characters alive. The book is not particularly long, so 11 episodes might be a bit long.
I just realized that The Perfect Insider is kinda similar to Moryo no Hako. Philosophical, chatty characters in an anime based on one single mystery novel; authors debuted around the same time (Kyogoku’s debut basically created the Mephisto Prize which Mori won with The Perfect Insider). Might be interesting to take a look at that series if you haven’t already.
I’m really looking forward to see where Perfect Insider goes- gonna pick up Mouryou no Hako, need something mysterious to keep me going whilst I wait for weekly episodes.
Regarding Perfect Insider, I really liked the dialogue and the intrigue presented in the first episode, and I’m just getting around to watching the rest now. Conway’s game of life in the ending was cool too,.
