O-kaeri nasai!

Irozuka Sekai no Ashita kara (Iroduku: The World in Colours)

In Nagasaki, a descendant of mages, 17-year-old Hitomi lost her sense of colour at a young age and grew up lacking emotion. Her grandmother Kohaku, a great mage, sends Hitomi 60 years into the past, to the year 2018. There, she spends time with a 17-year-old Kohaku and friends from school club activities.

This evening’s Episode:Where You Belong

A lonely girl unable to see colour is suddenly sent back in time by her magical grandmother. Her arrival location will cause some misunderstandings, and she is otherwise hopeless in this primitive time. But can a girl who has no friends connect with a family who has never met her? And what of this boy who brings colour back into her world?

Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Die Neue These (aka Ginga Eiy? Densetsu Die Neue These Kaik?)

This evening’s Episode:In the Eternal Night

Admiral Reinhard von Lohengramm’s fleet is outnumbered and about to be out-flanked.

The jewels’ master, Kongo, assigns one of the weaker jewels, Phosphophyllite (Phos), to construct an encyclopaedia since they are unsuited for battle.
