Drunk Lives Matter Irish Shirt

 Runner-Up: Bungo Stray Dogs Wan!

Gag shows and shorts are definitely two of the hardest formats to do well, and somehow Bungo Stray Dogs Wan! Manages to pull them both off. Certainly part of it is that the cast of the regular series has some very recognizable quirks for this to play with, but even that's not quite enough to make this good without some expert skewering of the characters and situations. From Dazai being the preschool teacher for the rest of the cast (reading them No Longer Human at story time is amazing) to Chuuya's fluffy puppy form to Akutagawa's jealousy of Atsushi being milked for all its worth, this just keeps hitting the right notes in every episode. It's also a plus that characters who are often sidelined in the main series, like Kenji, get much more screen time here, and that some of the bittersweetness from the original also seeps through without ruining the overall mood – episode eleven, about Dazai, Odasaku, and Ango, is a wonderful example of this. If you like Bungo Stray Dogs, you need to watch Wan!. Then maybe you can tell me how Chuuya somehow became my favorite character.

Dropped the Ball: Horimiya Drunk Lives Matter Irish Shirt

Oh, Horimiya. You started out with such promise. Then two very specific things dragged you down: inexplicably speeding through the source manga like a bat out of hell and spending too much time harping on Hori's specific kink.

It actually isn't all that often that I'm able to pinpoint what went wrong with a promising series so easily, so I suppose Horimiya has that going for it. What's more remarkable is how easy it would have been to avoid these two particular pitfalls. Given that the manga isn't quite finished (although it may be by the time of this writing), there really isn't a whole lot of sense in whipping through the story the way the show chooses to. This goes doubly when the manga starts to pale in its later volumes – really, a very good anime could have been made by just taking the first five or six volumes and adapting them more closely, especially since even with bits and pieces cut out, Horimiya is a slice-of-life romance no matter how you look at it. That's a genre that, by definition, pays attention to the minutiae of the characters' everyday lives, so cutting, for example, pieces of the story that explain what Miyamura was doing in Hokkaido really is more hindrance than help. It also makes Hori come off as far more domineering and toxic than she truly is, and I can only think someone in the staff thought it was funny to see her forcing her predilection for being fake-bullied onto her boyfriend with how much emphasis the show places on it without the quieter scenes of them being happy together.
