Always a Catch! Episode 12 – “How I Punched My Way into Marrying a Prince”
After this post goes live, I shouldn't have to write Always a Catch! on my blog for quite a while. This is either a blessing or a curse, and I'll let you decide which one it is once you're done reading this post. Anyway, like I suspected, this episode had a focus on the aftermath of the ending of the previous episode for part of its runtime, with the rest of it being dedicated to the ball! Finally! Took us long enough! While Mimi, Aida, Placadio, and Renato are waiting to go out and do […] -
Always a Catch! Episode 11 – “The One That Got Away Gets Dragged Into Romantic Trouble”
"I don't wanna talk about this episode!" I say as I sit down and proceed to write my simulcast writeup about this exact episode because it'd be more suspicious if this post was absent than if it was present. Look guys, I'm sorry, but I was not a fan of this episode overall, mainly because the plot of it kicked off of one specific man. If you've read any of my posts from prior to this one, you probably know why. Yeah, I am straight up just not a fan of Ireneo. While it appears he's less bad […] -
Always a Catch! Episode 10 – “The One Who Got Away Prepares For a Ball”
Since this is the first post that I'm making in June, I'd just like to say happy Pride month! I know this isn't really something that would apply to this title, but literally I can't determine whether or not any of my other simulcasts would be considered as more fitting, plus I think the closer to the start of the month that I make this post, the better. Anyway, time to actually get down into the details of this episode. Basically this entire episode revolves around Mimi preparing for the […] -
Always a Catch! Episode 9 – “The One Who Got Away Plays Cupid”
Text that gets pushed to the Fediverse includes spoilers that I don't feel comfortable showing openly.https://saratalksanime.com/2026/05/28/always-a-catch-episode-9-the-one-who-got-away-plays-cupid/

Always a Catch! Episode 8 – “The Secret Date of the One That Got Away”
Okay, new week, new episode of Always a Catch!, and unsurprisingly, me ranting about a translation decision in the title for the next episode that just astounds me, which I'm just going to get out of the way now. Right now, structure wise, we've had: Episodes 1-6: "How..." Episodes 1-3: "How I..." Episodes 4-6: "How the One That Got Away..." Episodes 7-8: "The [fill in the blank] of the One That Got Away" So you'd probably expect Episode 9 to play along with this, maybe bring up another […] -
Always a Catch! Episode 7 – “The Fists of the One That Got Away”
Having two simulcasts to watch each day is crazy, because what do you mean that after this week's simulcast episode of the other series that I watch on Wednesdays having such a serious ending I suddenly have to turn around and watch this series? I literally put off watching this episode for a while because I needed the ending of that other episode to sink in! Anyway, here's your regularly scheduled Always a Catch! writeup. For the recap section of the episode, instead of recapping the […]https://saratalksanime.com/2026/05/14/always-a-catch-episode-7-the-fists-of-the-one-that-got-away/

"This hair ornament of the Annovazzi, a clan famous for their unarmed fighting techniques, and which looks just like a knuckle duster, holds a secret!"

Always a Catch! Episode 6 – “How the One That Got Away Fought With Her Father”
Okay, I think I figured out why this "the one that got away" thing to refer to Mimi is bothering me so much. The first time the phrase "the one that got away" was used in this series (Episode 2), it was clearly in reference to Renato. While one could argue that Episode 4 could be referring to Renato in that instance as well, Episode 5 is when the naming scheme stopped making sense. Why is Mimi being referred to as "the one that got away"? Wouldn't it make more sense to keep calling Renato […] -
I could listen to the Annovazzi family banter at the table for hours. Very well written and acted.

Always a Catch Episode 5 – “How the One That Got Away Visited Home”
The episode naming structure for Always a Catch confuses me. Episodes 1 through 3 were named things along the lines of "How I..." which, okay, fair, we know those are talking about Mimi, since she's the main character. Starting in Episode 4 and persisting into this episode and the next one, however, the episode naming structure has gone into "How the One That Got Away..." from the very simple "How I..." we had in Episodes 1 through 3. And I'm just confused what "the One That Got Away" means […] -
Always a Catch Episode 4 – “How the One That Got Away Was Troubled”
Okay. Let's see just how far I get into this writeup before I begin letting my frustration show. After all, there's a character that we get an official introduction to in this episode that I don't really like. Okay, so we begin with more of the aftermath of the ending of the previous episode, which involved the assassination attempt on the queen, and how an investigation is starting regarding that, involving Mimi providing a dramatic recap to the knights of what happened, including her […] -
Always a Catch! è spassosissimo, se mantiene questo ritmo sarà un'altra commedia che questa stagione mi farà ribaltare dalle risate! :foxxo_laught:

Always a Catch Episode 3 – “How I Trained to Become a Lady”
Okay, woo, this was an episode! Let's see how well I can communicate what happened in this episode. I don't think it'll be that difficult, but I may end up stumbling over stuff. Many apologies if that is the case. Anyway, let's get started. Despite what the title of this episode suggests, we don't get to see extremely in-depth lady training done by Mimi. We do hear some comments made by characters about how ladies shouldn't act when compared to how Mimi acts, but not anything that gives us […]https://saratalksanime.com/2026/04/16/always-a-catch-episode-3-how-i-trained-to-become-a-lady/

Always a Catch! Episode 1 Impressions
Looks pretty good, nothing amazing though. Character's aren't all that unique in look, but personality wise I do like them.
The show is pretty humorous, but it's not always landing for me, as it feels like it is holding back. It's being goofy at times, but the joke setups keep having me expect it to be a bit more ridiculous than it turns out to be.
I'll give the series a couple more episodes to see if it finds its stride, but this could end up a binge later show.

Always a Catch Episode 2 – “How I Caught the One That Got Away”
Before I get into my post about the episode, my web viewing finally got the new player on Crunchyroll (or if I've had it for longer I literally hadn't noticed it until now), and god I hate it. I dislike the fact that the fast forward and rewind buttons are next to the play/pause button. I don't like how the time thing shows "time you're at/-time remaining" instead of having a reading format that easier to understand. Also, for whatever reason, my "auto play next" setting was set back to being […]https://saratalksanime.com/2026/04/09/always-a-catch-episode-2-how-i-caught-the-one-that-got-away/

Always a Catch! Episode 1 – “How I Searched For A Promising Catch”
Always a Catch! was one of the few shows where I decided to watch a trailer for it prior to watching the first episode. Hell, I watched two trailers before the first episode dropped. And the only reason I knew these trailers existed was because the international TMS YouTube channel (Anime! on TMS Official Channel) posted the English subtitled trailers, which made me positive that this series was going to get released in America. So glad to find out that I was right, even if I didn't find out […]https://saratalksanime.com/2026/04/02/always-a-catch-episode-1-how-i-searched-for-a-promising-catch/
