Angolmois: Record of Mongol Invasion ep 1 -- Interesting timing, considering "The Ghost of Tsushima" game Sony is making. This would probably be a good starting point for those interested in that. Tsushima is an island between Korea and Japan. It was an important location for traders and merchants but it was also a target for pirates--and, more importantly, it was always the location the Mongols attacked first so they could use it to stage their invasion of the mainland.

This anime is about a former samurai and decorated warrior who ends up exiled as a prisoner on Tsushima. The plan is to use these prisoners to help fight the Mongols.

The first episode was good. It looks like some of the other prisoners, mostly pirates and bandits, are going to become part of the resistance along with the main character. Lots of blood and fighting, obviously. The Japanese Princess who governs the island is an interesting character, plus it seems there are other players involved.

Grand Blue Dreaming -- Looks like the Isekai plan failed. All the college freshmen in the anime are now 20 years old. Japan takes underage drinking very seriously. The "shameful acts are not encouraged" disclaimer cracked me up.
