BABEL (BABEL Rankingu Sen, Kaishi)
"BABEL Ranking Tests, Commence!"

"Worrying and Racing Ahead"
I called this the surprise of the season before. But you know what? It turns out I was wrong. Yup. Wrong. Because as it turns out, I wasn't giving the series enough praise. I'll be blunt: TARI TARI is the best new show of the season. And if you dropped it earlier, you are seriously missing out. A lot.

"The Far East Front Lines"
Now that we're past the anime original beginning, the Yui/Yuuya arc originally made just for selling figures, and the beach intermission, it's finally time for Total Eclipse to show its colors. First thing on the agenda? Dealing with the imminent return of the BETA.

"Spinning in Circles and Losing Sight"
A distinguishing feature of shows with large casts is whether not they're able to give particular characters a specific focus while ensuring the others don't get left out. TARI TARI passes this test with flying colors. Also inside: a bit of interesting trivia regarding the series' name.
