Lately there's a lot of short anime. That's not a bad thing. Five minutes is pretty great amount of time for adapting comic strips, which can help avoid stretching the material beyond it's breaking point as sometimes unfortunately happens. But making multiple threads for them feels a little wasteful. They're bite sized, after all. So I wanted to make a thread where they can be discussed in general. Here's a few I like:  Ninja Girl & Samurai Master AKA Nobunaga's Ninja The Devil King of the Sixth Heaven isn't just starring in Drifters in Fall 2016. This is a historical comedy featuring Oda Nobunaga's rise to power starring a ninja named Chidori, who is as skilled as she is adorable. Features a colorful cast of historical idiots, with good natured comedy that'll probably remind you of good childrens anime.   Kaiju Girls: The Ultra Kaiju Anthropomorphization Project The massive monsters of Tsuburaya's 50 year old franchise are back... and this time they're moe! Or well, more moe. In outfits that are kind of gross. Except 99% of the time they're drawn like this:  So it's not quite as horny as it might otherwise be. Despite the nakedly commercial premise (hey, it's tokusatsu baby) it's a pretty funny show about what would happen if magical girls were managed by a bureaucracy, with lots of shout outs for fans of the Ultraman universe(s).  Anyway, feel free to talk about and post your own favorite short series. Who knows, maybe if we ever get a Yotsuba&! anime, it'll be in this format instead of a 25 minute show

It's 6:45, but I think it counts since it's a short movie rather than an episode. https://vimeo.com/15103971 On Your Mark, by Hayao Miyazaki.

The new Nobunaga is supremely good at balancing silly jokes and the actual history of a period of the sengoku I'm not familiar with. They're all very quick cuts but the arrow in the forehead and body double bits got me real good.

Once Nyanbo started coming out I was reminded of the great CG opening to Moyashimon, so I recut the first couple episodes of Nyanbo to the theme. Now that there is a relevant thread, I can vomit my fancut to the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts9GQ8Tyl80

Nobunaga's Ninja is so good and cute. Wakako-zake is also really good and I wish there was way more of it. Puchim@s still best short anime.

Teekyuu is forever. This season, I'm also enjoying Miss Bernard Said, Kiitaro's Youkai Picture Diary, and (longer than 5 minutes) Nazotokine. I ragged on Nazotokine initially, but it's okay for the length. Older top class shorts: AIURA Yama no Susume (original series, second season was full length episodes and still as good) And make sure to watch Sushi Police too.

Saiki's 100th episode was really good, you should watch it, even if you didn't watch the rest.
