Synopsis

Akagami no Shirayukihime – (Shirayuki (“Snow white”) princess of the red hair)

Shirayuki is a young pharmacist from the kingdom of Tanbarun who is cheerful, spirited and dedicated to her job. She also has brilliant red hair, which is very rare. When the first prince of Tanbarun decides to claim her unique beauty for himself, Shirayuki flees to the neighbouring kingdom of Clarines to start her life over. There may be eccentric nobility here as well, but there are also friends, and at least she can do her job.

This evening’s Episode:The Red that Spins Fate

It’s a new day at the castle as everyone continues with their lives including Shirayuki as she helps clean the medical wing, while Zen continues with his royal duties while holding personal thoughts regarding his future with Shirayuki. However, everyone receives a surprise when a familiar face returns; Mihaya, the kidnapper from episode #2.

Working!!! season 3

The little restaurant of Wagnaria has a very eccentric staff that, against all odds, keep the place running and the customers coming back. Amidst the scheming assistant chef, the blasé boss, the katana wielding head waitress, the androphobe and the freeloader is Takanashi Souta, a high school student lured into working here by his obsession with anything small and cute … like waitress Taneshima Popura.

This evening’s Episode:Working Girl?

Still dressed as Kotori, Takanashi gets some surprisingly sound love advice from Kirio Yamada, who instantly sees through his disguise. Meanwhile, Takanashi and Sat? become curious about how assistant chef Souma hasn’t been snooping into people’s businesses lately. Later, Yachiyo tells Popura that she plans to quit Wagnaria to expand her horizons, assigning her as the next chief. After being told by Popura to confront his problem, S?ta asks Mahiru Inami about which form he prefers.

Amaama to Inazuma (Sweetness and Lightning)

Kohei Inuzuka is a teacher and a recent widower, raising his young daughter alone. With a full time job keeping him busy, little Tsumugi has been getting mostly pre-packaged meals.

This evening’s Episode:A Day Off and Special Doughnuts

While on a day out, Kotori encounters Tsumugi apparently being kidnapped by the suspicious looking Y?suke Yagi. Discovering that Tsumugi seems to hold herself back from eating doughnuts, Kotori decides doughnuts will be their next cooking venture. Hopefully the misunderstandings will be reduced.

When the Boomers began to run out of control, the ADPolice at first tried to stop them, but they proved to be very difficult to deal with.

And then one day, quite by accident, Takeo meets Rinko Yamato …

When his parents finally get sick of sending him money he is thrown a lifeline by Yoake Ryou, a representative of the RELife Company. RELife gives jobless deadbeats like Arata a new lease on life… By giving them a pill that makes them look like teenagers again and having them repeat high school.
