New character of the week (finally), really happy now because I have no more exams for the next two weeks, which means I can finally post again ;_;

Character of the week!

Yukari Tanizaki

Anime: Azumanga Daioh

Bio: She is not only the girls' English and homeroom teacher (class 3), but a teacher with very unconventional methods and a rather close relationship with the class. Her students are casual enough to call her by her given name (Yukari-sensei in lieu of Tanizaki-sensei, with a few, mostly Tomo, addressing her as the extremely informal Yukari-chan (Japanese); just Yukari in English). Depending on the day, time, and her mood, she can be either a horrible tyrant or one of the sweetest, most touching teachers ever. Her behavior ranges from mercilessly teasing Chiyo and hitting students with blunt objects to kind and gentle words and simple, encouraging notes on tests telling students she believes in them.

Fun Fact: Yukari's driving skills are infamous, showing no concern for the rules of the road, people, other cars, signs, or the speed limit, and the many dents on her parents' car (dubbed the "Yukarimobile" by Yomi and the others) is evidence to that.

Woo, you really did it.  Bravo.  Here, some more flavor.

God, Azumanga Daioh was brilliant.

In other news, Your Lie in April is probably my favorite anime of the season.  Shirobako is close, though, especially since it's based on real people in the anime profession and some real events.
