10/1 anime column and season preview

3 of 4 summer shows wrapped up here. Re:ZERO later revealed that it was doing the split-season thing, so yesterday's episode will get squeezed in at the bottom of next week's post full of fall premieres.

And here's what we've got in store for fall. It's got a lot of range, this season, and I'm cautiously optimistic about having a full slate of shows, although it'll be awkward if I do manage that and then Attack on Titan starts showing up weekly in December.

The season just kicked off tonight with my most anticipated show. Spoiler: it doesn't suck!

Speaking of columns

james_davis_nicoll starts his latest listicle for Tor thus:

I’m always looking for new works to review for Because My Tears Are Delicious To You, an ongoing series on my own website. There I revisit some of the books I loved as a teen. Recently I put out a request on social media for readers to suggest authors and works now obscure that deserve mention. To my surprise, someone suggested Arthur C. Clarke’s Tales from the White Hart.

Reader, that person was me.

I already knew my sense of what's obscure is skewed compared to most people's, but I don't think it's ever provoked an entire column before.
