Comments | Romantic comedy anime series where the protagonist finds himself faced, randomly, throughout the day, being faced by random multiple choice questions, with whatever action he chooses he’s bound to do (for example, having to choose to go through the school day with no shirt or no trousers) except his classmates are unaware that he is facing these choices, and if he fails to choose he is hit with crippling migranes. One of his female classmates reveals how he can be freed from this curse – through completing some somewhat herculean labors. | ||||||||

Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “I’m going with the Doctor Who: Tom Baker collection – while this season is a bit of a mixed bag (Horns of the Nimon, for example), on the other hand it’s got City of Death, which is an all-time classic.” Blaine says, “I’d also say the Doctor Who: Tom Baker collection is the best of the bunch, though I also remember Soapdish being a lot of fun.”
I’ll probably watch CSI: Vegas (I liked the original, at least when it started). I haven’t had the mental wherewithal to dive into Season 4 of The Handmaid’s Tale. I recorded Benjamin Franklin on PBS because I’m always down for more Ken Burns. Oh and Death on the Nile will also be watched as I love a good mystery and Murder on the Orient Express was very good.
