What Is This?

The golem is the guardian of the forest. He always expected to serve in that capacity for 1,000 years before returning to the earth in the forest, but his encounter with a little human girl who calls him "Dad" upon their first encounter changes that. The girl, Somali, being human is itself very unusual, as the golem learns that nearly all humans were chased out many years earlier as a result of a war with the local beast people, and those few that remained served as pets and/or food. Hence the golem sets off on a journey with the disguised Somali in order to find other humans. The problem is that Somali, being oblivious to how much of an oddity she is, is imbued with her fair share of careless curiosity. Somali and the Forest Spirit is based on a Web manga and streams on Crunchyroll at 12:30 p.m. on Thursdays.

A young man wakes up in a strange, broken world. All he knows is that his name is Sakaido and he's the Master Detective, his goal to solve the locked-room murder of a girl named Kaeru. But that's only on the surface - in reality, Sakaido is a prisoner, sent into the "id wells" of serial killers to help the detectives on an elite squad find them and stop their rampages. This most recent foray is in search of a killer nicknamed "The Perforator," and as Sakaido leads the detectives closer to him, his actions begin to have an effect on the world Sakaido is inhabiting. Is using the cognitive particles of killers really a viable method for catching them?

In Hina's world, everyone has a number somewhere on their body. That number increases each time a person accomplishes a feat particular to them (such as walking 100 km for Hina or earning praise from a customer for a tavern owner she meets) but can also decrease for negative accomplishments. If the number hits zero, that person gets dragged into the Abyss, and the higher the number, the higher the social standing (in most cases). Such a fate befell her mother. Five years and a lot of walking later, Hina comes to a particular town in a quest to fulfill her mother's last instruction: find the legendary Ace and give him an orb marked with a 10,000, which she doesn't initially know designates the bearer as a Ballot Holder. Though tricked and taken advantage of by a soldier posing as the Ace, help comes from a surprising source: the troublesome lecher Licht, who may be the true Ace she was looking for.

Have you heard? If you go to the third stall of the third-floor girls' bathroom in the old school building and knock three times, Hanako-san will appear and grant your wish - for a price. Except when lovelorn high school first-year Nene Yashiro tries, a boy appears from the stall, Hanako-kun. He's willing to grant her wish, but he warns her that the more supernatural the solution, the more bitter the price...and that maybe her wish, for the most popular second-year boy in the school to like her, isn't really what she's looking for. Yashiro is stubbornly insistent that it is, however, she agrees to use Hanako-kun's down-to-earth solutions out of a self-help book. When none of those work, though, she seizes on a mermaid scale curse, despite Hanako's warnings, not only cursing herself, but also binding her to Hanako-kun for this life...and beyond.

Before he died at Honnouji in 1582, the great warlord Oda Nobunaga stood before a statue of Buddha and thought to himself that he'd committed so many sins that he'd very likely be reborn as a dog. He never expected that Buddha would take his words literally, however, but the next thing he's aware of, he's in the body of a Shiba Inu named Cinnamon in modern Japan! Less than thrilled at the fact that his human warlord consciousness is trapped in the instinct-bound body of an adorable house pet, Nobunaga struggles between making the best of it (he can have that ruff all the Europeans were wearing!) and being frustrated with his reality (the ruff turns out to be a bath hat and now he has to have a bath). Is it better or worse that many of his fellow warriors also seem to have been reincarnated in canine form - and that his enemy looks like he lucked out and got to be a human?
