Weekly ranking roundup:

Anime Corner - Full Results - Weekly Winner: Wind Breaker
Anime Trending - Full Results - Weekly Winner: Konosuba
Reddit Karma - Weekly Winner: Mushoku Tensei

Credit to /u/Abysswatcherbel for making the chart for reddit karma and /u/Nooble5 for the Anime Trending chart.

Like I mentioned earlier, I haven't really gotten to watch much this week. However, I have noticed Wind Breaker consistently climbing up charts this season, culminating in topping AC this week. Seems like a show worth checking out in the future when I get a chance.

Wind Breaker is definitely good. Not quite great, like Dungeon Meshi, but very watchable.

The MC, Haruka Sakura, is a parody on the "fight to become top delinquent" type of main character. His strange appearance with bi-colored hair, and odd eye colors, set him apart as the freak that he is. He even has 2 girls names.

The local delinquent gang is loved by the local merchants, and when they're not fighting other roving gangs, they do positive social work.

The highlight so far has been the gorgeously animated fight in episode 5.
