Watched


Aikatsu!

Spice and Wolf
REWATCH! - Anime, English version
10E/10E
(Ah, got to love when Holo gets in a huff!)





Gunslinger Girl
REWATCH! - Anime, English verison
10E/10E
(Now I don't have to keep an eye on the subs I'm really getting into the story more and seeing how human the girls still are...) 





Winx: Season 5
REWATCH! - French version
10E/10E
(So I thought I ordered volume 1 of French version, which is why when I saw it was the entire series in a box set when it arrived on my door mat I squeed a lot. SQUEEE! I've seen the first few in French, but not the rest. Either way - I have the entire season 5 a lot sooner than expected - yay!) 





Pretty Rhythm Aurora Dream

10E/10E
(I love watching clumsy Aira finally get the dance routine right with Rhythm & Mion...) 





Pretty Rhythm Dear My Future
REWATCH! - Anime, Japanese version
10/10E
(I'm seriously liking this heaps more than I originally did - it's so much fun seeing how spontaneous Mia is - and how selfish she can be. She grows so much as a person thanks to being in Prizzmy & having her best friend Hyein with her!) 







Craft etc
Due to having ketamine treatment at the weekend I haven't gamed or done any of my puzzle this week. However, I have made more progress on my cross stitch! 



Ta-da! Nearly finished the hair. ^o^
