Narwhal

Death Parade definitely finished off with a bang. Its final episode sort of cemented this deliberate thematic contradiction that actually worked in favour of the show's main ideas, oddly enough. I also thought it was pretty great from a visual standpoint. Aside from Studio Madhouse's generally strong animation, I thought the director (whom if I recall correctly is making his debut as a series director after working in the industry for several years) actually had a lot of ambition in his shot composition and character framing. It's not always perfect but when it worked it worked really well. I'd say it's my favourite new anime of 2015 so far.
