| 3:48am | It’s that time again! Summer Season Preview. |  | | | I might be running ahead of the game but I checked out links on moonphase and I’m doing another preview post.

Tezuka had | | |
| 10:15pm | Kamichama Karin - 06 | | | | So while I was hoping that they’d do more on the school festival this week I guess this will be a 2 ep or 3 ep arc.

| 4:33pm | Tohsaka Update | | | | Here’s Rin a few weeks after bending her back into shape. There’s a little bit of warp coming back, but I expected that since the inner tube she’s carrying makes for an imbalance and I didn’t do anything to counteract that weight.
