My Winter 2015 Simulcast Ranking


# Rank # Final Score # Title



# 01 # 09 # Death Parade

One thing is certain: I want the billiard table from this show! After watching Death Billiards I really wanted to see more of this concept and luckily we got this show! Overall plot was all right but could have been better. I think this show would have been better by staying only episodic. Still it is for me the best show in this weak season. OP is also the best!



# 02 # 08 # Shinmai Maou no Testament (The Testament of Sister New Devil)

The censoring while airing was really annoying and exaggerated. I think I should watch the uncensored version of this at a later date...
Beside that nice to have another harem with a MC that isn't pathetic. All right plot decorating the "plot" of the show. A bit hyped for the next season.




# 03 # 08 # Ansatsu Kyoushitsu (TV) (Assassination Classroom)

The whole crazy story with the tentacle monster aside why would anyone still stay in this class? Every person in their right mind would change schools. The whole discrimination plot from the school against this class reduced considerably my enjoyment of this fun show.
Nice show but more focus on the main objective, killing the teacher, would have been even better.




# 04 # 08 # Yoru no Yatterman (Yatterman Night)

Never watched anything from this franchise but I enjoyed this crazy adventure of this hopeless group.
Drop in quality (art and animation) at the end.




# 05 # 07 # Aldnoah.Zero 2nd Season

Why can't the dead stay dead? This would have been much better if they would... Awesome visuals, effects and soundtrack but the story takes a wrong turn in the 2nd season...
Heavy spoilers:

Such a wasted potential... OK it was entertaining, especially the fights but it could have been so much better...




# 06 # 07 # The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls

Very entertaining. Pretty funny and the producer was the perfect counterweight to this crazy combination of all kind of girls (one for each taste practically). Nice that there is going to be a second season of this.
The music was pretty nice.




# 07 # 07 # Binan Koukou Chikyuu Bouei-bu LOVE!Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!)

While watching some mahou shoujo shows I sometimes asked myself what such a show would be like with magical boys... Now I have an answer! Ridiculous but pretty funny.



# 08 # 07 # Koufuku Graffiti (Gourmet Girl Graffiti)

Sweet and relaxing slice of life show. Somehow I really want to try out some of the presented food...



# 09 # 07 # Sengoku Musou (Samurai Warriors)

Pretty interesting, especially since for once we see the story AFTER Nobunaga and not the story of Nobunaga for the 100st time.
Some nice fighting scenes.




# 10 # 07 # Tokyo Ghoul √A (Tokyo Ghoul 2nd Season)

Like in the previous season I am still no fan of the "powers" the characters have. Beside that it was all right.Some interesting moments but there are too much boring phases.



# 11 # 06 # Seiken Tsukai no World Break (World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman)

This show lacks animation quality at some places. Tight budget?
Average stuff with MC in a school for people with special powers who finds himself with his personal harem. Too bad they didn't explored the previous lives of the characters more instead of some of the standard stories they presented.
The way the magic worked was quite interesting and original.




# 12 # 06 # Isuca

Annoying tsundere lead... Nothing very exceptional. The bugs (black dots) they had flying around in every scene taking place during a night were really annoying. Every time I got fooled that something was flying in front of my TV...



# 13 # 06 # Military!

Lolis handling heavy artillery. Some funny moments but the hype from the start died down after a few episodes.



# 14 # 06 # Juuou Mujin no Fafnir (Unlimited Fafnir)

Generic harem with fights where the MC has some special power and somehow gets enrolled in a school where he is the only male... At least the characters looked really cute.



# 15 # 06 # Junketsu no Maria (Maria the Virgin Witch)

Despite the annoying attitude of the MC this was pretty nice to watch. Some funny moments especially the incubus missing "something important".



# 16 # 06 # Kantai Collection: KanColle (Fleet Girls Collection KanColle)

Cute girl doing cute things fighting a war. The whole concept is a bit weird but its somewhat entertaining.



# 17 # 05 # Absolute Duo

Generic harem show with some school teaching fighting and an MC with an unique ability. Nothing very interesting and some things like the ridiculously exaggerated enrolment "ceremony" at the start or the teacher running around in a maid outfit with bunny ears kind of ruined the moments where they tried to be serious.
Beside that the "Duo" concept kind of is problematic in a harem show...




# 18 # 05 # Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata (Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend)

The English title talks about a boring girlfriend I think more of a boring show... Nothing very interesting happens and I disliked the attitude of the male MC.



# 19 # 04 # Yuri Kuma Arashi (Yuri Bear Storm)

Really strange story/setting. On top of that you can see what happens to Anime if the budget is way too small.. Will be forgotten pretty soon.



# 20 # 03 # Rolling☆Girls (The Rolling Girls)

Liked the art style and the intro but the show... Strange stuff and a weird setting not making much sense to me. To put it simply didn't liked the and got bored with it pretty quickly.
