| So i did get some response to my Fall 2014 list of what people were watching this anime season. So with that motivation I thought why not make a second thread for the guild =). Once again I do like making direct threads so that is why i'm not going to post this in the anime discussion. Now besides Chaika season 2 and ore twintails I have watched the first episodes of all the shows i listed+ I added Grisaia no Kajitsu since it was borderline show that someone i watch on youtube named Chibireviews really enjoyed so i picked it up. Last season there was only really 3 shows that i really enjoyed and that was Akame ga Kill, Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun, and Hanayamata. On first impressions that does not seem the case with this anime season and i'm very optimistic that i will have double that amount at the end of this season. Akatsuki no Yona- Has a dynasty warriors feel to it and that really is awesome to me. Amagi Brilliant Park- I'm still hoping for a WTF comedy anime from this but the underlining sad tones that we got from the first episode was a nice touch Donten ni Warau- Three brothers in the height of western influence in Asia, it could be nice but not at my top nor bottom Grisaia no Kajitsu- So everyone in this anime is going to be sadistic killers or something? I wonder if the author of Akame ga Kill is friends with this author -.^. Gugure! Kokkuri-san- So far this has been my WTF comedy anime this season with what could be one of the best child characters in the making. Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de- So we got our useless MC of the season, surrounded by 4 girls with OP powers. Will see where this goes but it's not bad Log Horizon 2nd Season- DATABASE DATABASE regardless of the negative public opinion is on studio DEEN, they upgraded the art style of this anime significantly and no hater has any leverage now against this anime. DATABASE DATABASE Madan no Ou to Vanadis- I like the set-up of the world but that all really i can say about this anime. Trinity Seven- I can sense there will be a lot of fanservice in this show but i am not someone who goes out and just bashes fanservice like others. I'm not really a big fan of the art style of the faces but will see if the characters themselves can get me past that Ushinawareta Mirai wo Motomete- This is probably the most intriguing anime of the season. I do like club anime so that also not a negative. |
  |
| Alright, I got you. Personally I'm hoping this season will turn the tail on everything, so far this year I've only rated 1 anime that aired with a 7+ (WIXOSS - 8) and so far it looks like it. Amagi Brilliant Park This was pretty stupid, and pretty boring. Might stick with it, might drop it. I'm not expecting anything from it, but the artstyle looks really nice. For those claiming it's a good thing they include fanservice just because it's true to the manga, let me laugh at you. Wait hold on, once wasn't enough. Denki-gai no Honya-san First episode was really funny in my book, I hope they'll keep it up, otherwise this might fall flat on it's face, but if they keep it up it will be a blast. Grisaia no Kajitsu The premise sounded interesting at first, but it played out like a generic harem up until the end. If this was handled with more maturity I'd be interested though. Also, I counted 18 pantyshots. Dropped. Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji I think I saw five minutes before I gave up. Terrible premise. Dropped. Terra Formars Mars of Destruction does better character interactions than this crap. It also has better comedy, doesn't matter if it's intended or not. If you're not a fan of censoring, stay away. If you're not a fan of rushed adaptions, stay away. If you're not a fan of terrible anime, stay the fuck away. Dropped. Selector Spread WIXOSS I don't like Starpoop girl, but it was nice to see the cast again. Expecting great things from this one, because that's what the first season gave me. Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis Seems like a generic fantasy action show, but I enjoyed the episode. Cards fucking where. Sora no Method Wow. This was just pure bliss, a relaxing slice of life with a touch of drama, and a mystery element? An amazing OST to set the mood with great visuals too. For the first work of a studio I'm highly impressed. Solid AotS candidate, if not AotY candidate. Please don't let this go downhill... Ushinawareta Mirai wo Momomete I'll see where the second episode goes, since the first episode didn't give away much. Somewhat generic cast, but the twist they seem to have might salvage this into something above average. But I wouldn't bet on it. World Trigger One dimensional bully characters, untimely dialogue and mediocre action coupled with lack of signs of improvement makes me want to avoid this one. Dropped. |

| ^dude your opinion on world trigger made me LOL I downloaded it and watched literally like 3 minutes of it and was like nope this is lame... |
| ^Good the show manages to provide some entertainment then, even if not the way it intended. x) Trinity Seven Generic fanservice crap. Dropped. |

| Amagi Brilliant Park I liked the first episode, it gave me the feeling of a place full of magic and fantasy, gave me the sensation of a child dream, the animation helped a lot to get this sensation. I liked the characters and tought the show was fun and enjoyable. I doubt they are gonna continue in this path but i'll enjoy till the harem kicks in and the show starts to get bad. Btw, i was shocked to see a kiss and fanservise by KyoAni. I mean, for them holding hand is like having sex. Fate/Stay Night UBW -Ufotable delivered everything, it was as awsome as expected to be. Log Horizon -Didnt liked the changes to the animation that much. Everything else was really good. And they are gonna do what I want to see the most. Every week waiting is gonna be hard. :/ |

| Just finished Kiseijuu I expected more to be honest. Heard really good things about it and wasnt really impressed. Hopefully it gets deeper and more psychological as it goes on and not just another mindless gore show. |

| Gugure! Kokkuri-san Well, it didn't suck so I guess it exceeded my expectations for it? The comedy was weak though, and I doubt it will keep me interested for 11 more episodes, but one can always hope! |

| Nisekoi OVA Now i don't really watch many OVA's but from others I've watched this was pretty good. Surprisingly there wasn't much to any fanservice in this OVA and there was actually character development of a side character.The second season was announced last week and watching this makes me really miss the series and very hyped for the second season. Hitsugi no Chaika: Avenging Battle So instead of a re-entry into the series. We just went right back to status quo of trying to collect remains and i like that because i see this way too many times in 2nd seasons where they just backtrack for half the episode. Speculation is still up in the air on what happened with ViVi but all the events that were around the last episode was touched on in small segments this episode, which is good. As for FtFate, hot damn dude. I fear one day you might have more drops than completes on your MAL list. If so many shows don't appeal to you, maybe you should wait a few weeks to really see what you like because your barely exceeding 50% and your actual enjoyment of an episode is under 25%. |

I might've had that if I'd add drops with less than 2 eps watched, but it doesn't matter anyways. Some shows look a lot better on paper what they turn out to be, and some shows look terrible on paper but turn out better than I expected them to. So I have a try (almost) everything and drop the bad one's policy, it's how I get most value out of the time I spend with anime. Anyways~ Kaitou Joker It's a kid's show, nothing more, nothing less. It was quite enjoyable for 10 minutes, but I wouldn't want to watch it in the long run so... dropped. |

| Akatsuki no Yona What started out as being laughably stereotypical for the majority of the episode, turned around with a twist and actually became interesting by the end of it. I can’t say I’m not hyped to see what happens next, but if this goes back to being the most stereotypical romance since moshi moshi iceberg desu, I can’t say I’m interested. Donten ni Warau This was unfortunately not what I was hoping for, a mature story telling sincere tales of various prisoners, but I can’t say I’m surprised either. Feels a bit too much like Gintama, and I just can’t get myself interested to keep watching. It’s not half bad, but I got enough shows this season to warrant not watching this, unless I hear it changes it’s tone. Dropped. Daitoshokan no Hitsujukai If I had a loli for every time a show did the ’accidental boob grab’ joke, I’d be the protagonist of black bullet. Jokes aside, this show felt really generic, I only got 10 minutes in before I just didn’t want to keep watching. Dropped. Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de While this is no Kill la Kill, it was actually kind of fun. Now we just need a plot, and I’m all set. Little girl is cute and MC is a shit. This show is Rikka from Chuunibyou’s wet dream, and while I’m not that excited, I surely I hope I won’t have to pull the trigger on this one, haha… Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu Wait, is this supposed to be horror? While anime isn’t exactly a medium known for being 2spooky4me, I like me a horror that can build up a creepy atmosphere, and this sure is not doing that. With all the hype this has been getting, I’m not particularly impressed. Although hype is a fickle flame, and I got a fickle heart… was that too cheesy? Anyways, it’s decent enough to warrant a watch in my book, just not as good as I was hoping for. |

| Akatsuki no Yona While I chatted on Skype with a few friends, using my webcam, everybody was able to see how "excited" I was. That anime served every clichè you can imagine. It was horrible. But it took only one scene and a little sadistic smirk showed up on my face and the anime became enjoyable for second. Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu I have to say: I liked it. Yeah, I expected something more.... blood and fear (I was able to eat my pizza, damn it), but all in all it was a good start. And.... Am I crazy if I think that his right hand's kawaii? Ô.o World Trigger As I expected: Just an anime I will watch till it's over. It wasn't good, it wasn't bad, it was average. Nothing impressive here. Log Horizon Since I am a fan of this show I was pretty hyped. The first scenes and the last one were enough to call this one a perfect start. Can't wait for the next episode. Magic Kaito 1412 This. Voice. Is. Horrible. >.< Despite this episode was a good start, they kinda failed with the voice of Kaito. It's just annoying. But the episode was good. Action, mystery... I liked it. |

Fellener said: Log Horizon -Didnt liked the changes to the animation that much. Everything else was really good. And they are gonna do what I want to see the most. Every week waiting is gonna be hard. :/ The animation does look weird but it was changed to better resemble the LN art. I don't personally care some of the character design changes but they're not all bad. Akatsuki looks better, at least her hair looks less bland, and your face as more detail.

Speculation is still up in the air on what happened with ViVi but all the events that were around the last episode was touched on in small segments this episode, which is good. Chaika? Yes. Chaika. Glad to see someone else is watching Chaika in this family besides me. Completely agree that just picking up from where they left off with not intro into the season was a great choice. It made it a lot more enjoyable to start up the first episode. On my own notes: UBW Animation: Way better then DEEEEEEENNNNNN. They could do away with Rin's jew nose but it's not something that'll ruin the show for me. Over all though, it was alright. It bugged me how they changed Rin's personality slightly from the VN. When Shiro was teasing her at the start of school VN Rin would have told him to screw off but whatever. She still has her Princess-y air to her.. like this cute sway  Grisaia no Kajitsu MC is the most baised character ever. Only thing I have to say Gugure! Kokkuri-san Probably the most fun I have had in an episode 1 in a while. The feeling you get from Kokkuri and Kohina's conversations were awesome. Very funny Cross Ange Idk. I can't hear anything because I'm deaf in my left ear (joking. all versions only have sound in left ear). Unless someone fixes it just dropping it Amagi Brilliant Park Kyoani finds a way |
| Ore, Twintails ni Narimasu All right...that is just downright stupid. Save the world by killing aliens that want to keep all girls from wanting to wear twintails...Dropped Shirobako So i added on another show, which i guess you can consider a replacement show. We've had shows recently about manga authors but not an actual anime studio. So i'm pretty interested in the show because it feels unique. This is made from P.A. Works so hopefully they can rebound from glass-shit. |
|
| Denki-gai no Honya-san Episode 2 The hysterical comedy of Denki-gai is back! Even stronger episode than the first, in my book. It's rarely I find a comedy I enjoy this much. Top 3 candidate of the season, if nothing goes wrong. Fate/Stay Night Coming back to Fate/Stay Night felt like watching a mystery show I already knew the reveal of. While the animation of Rin jumping off the roof might be the best I've ever seen, I still can't get myself hyped for watching this again, especially with my favorite thing from the original, the OST by Kawai Kenji, being gone. It will probably be better than half the stuff I am watching, but I just can't get myself hyped for it as of now. Maybe sometime, if I ever feel like coming back to Stay/Night, but not now. Also, needs more Illya. Dropped. Garo: Honoo no Kokuin What's with all the fantasy anime airing this season? Not that I'm complaining though, this one seem to have a decent story. Sure, nothing I'm expecting a masterpiece from but it should be worth my time. Natatsu no Taizai Generic Shounen #3274. Got around 10 minutes in. Dropped. Ore, Twintails no Narimasu This is the most retarded thing I've ever seen. 10/10. Shirobako Good first episode. Looks like this will be a nice slice of life, and a solid backer to my current top 3. Drifters and Donuts for the win. |
| No validation, no applause You don't have prove you got it when you know it's yours https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSSKDIcpdSE |
| Psycho-Pass 2 Didnt liked that much. Dont see how they can do something like the season 1, it looks exactly like the beggining of the first season. Prob gonna be something just to get more moneys. |
| Remember guys, I AM NOT A PARAGON OF TASTE. I HAVE SHIT TASTE LIKE THE REST OF YOU. |
ftFate said: Ore, Twintails no Narimasu This is the most retarded thing I've ever seen. 10/10.. ohh, you troll. XD Amagi Brilliant Park So with two episodes in i'm going to drop my desire for WTF comedy as many people would think that the concept is silly, but this is two episodes in a row that were pretty touching. So what i really would love to see from this show going forward is a lot of strategy and a lot of math. I still feel there will be some fanservice, especially with those 4 elemental girls, but the show is really doing a good job of mapping out the environment and atmosphere of the show and i encourage members of this club to give it a chance. Donten ni Warau So were introduced to the police forces strongest men and most likely there will be some confrontation in the future with main character. We also learn the main reason such a powerful warrior is staying in such a small town. It was a decent episode, nothing to complain about. |
|
| Inou Battle wa Nichijou I enjoyed it. It reminds me a lot of GJ-Bu with the MC being picked on by a bunch of girls. Gonna keep watching it. Current rating 7/10 Shingeki no Bahamut It was alright. MC is funny and I like how he gets no fucks. Also, dat demon girl. So delicious looking. Definitely will keep watching if not for just these two. Don't really care how stupid the plot gets Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru.... Short animes have always been something I really enjoy watching. They're compact and always full of fun. This same concept applies to Danna. If you want a light hearted anime I'd say watch this. Over all, the development between the 2 characters is awesome. Animation is good. Can't wait for next weeks episode Akatsuki no Yona Maybe because it's an intro episode but as of right now I don't have high hopes for this series. Will judge if I'm dropping after episode 3.

Agreed. I was waiting for lulzsorandom.jpg comedy but it was actually quite a cute first 2 episodes. I'm interested in seeing where it goes from here. |
| Madan no Ou to Vanadis This show really has gotten a bad rep with the whole ecchi thing, theres about as much fan service in it than any other typical anime. Just watched the second episode and as for character development were beginning to understand the main character a little more as well as a tiny bit into supporting characters. The powers seem interesting and not much has been revealed. I'd say it's deffinetly worth watching the first two that have been released and maybe the third then decide if you want to drop it. Donten ni Warau This show I don't have much to say about. First episode...ehh it's ok just something to fill the gap on the shows I watch everyday. Second episode, was fantastic! dont want to say to much but after that i'm deffinetly gonna keep with it. Gundam in reconguista Genesis My first gundam show ive ever watched, took a little bit of convincing on my end just to sit down and give it a chance. Dont like mech stuff too much but I'm not dissapointed. Like the main character. Akatsuki no Yona Its gonna be great. Denki Gai no Honya San Very funny, I'm really enjoying these slice of life genre shows. It's great. |
| Madan no Ou to Vanadis I do feel this is pretty face paced, it's not really rushed but they went from wanting to go to battle to THE BATTLE in an instance. I do like the territorial landscape they're setting up but having a scene in the middle involving the moving party would of helped the pacing immensely. Log Horizon I was actually really surprised that we never came back to the north city for the rest of the first season so it's nice to be back. Clearly William Massachusetts feels some remorse for leaving like he did to accept his negotiations without even hearing it. In other news Tetora is adorable! Ushinawareta Mirai wo Motomete So I was pretty bored the first half of the 2nd episode, the ghost element brought me back but i'm really not feeling what the concept of the show is. I'm guessing will get some better development the next episode but this show is falling down the ranks of this season. |

gDeko said: Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji The girl was too obsessed with fitting in, and she was really stupid. Overall a really bad anime. Dropped. You should at least give it 3 episodes before dropping. I mean, the first episode was to flush out the two main characters problems and now they'll dive deeper into the relationship that's going to be belt up between the two. If you don't want to wait then after 3 episodes I'll message you back to let you know if you should pick it up again.

After seeing Williams response before even hearing the plan I'm actually worried about what he has in mind. Possible betrayal or something? I think Democracy-san(lol) will turn out to be a good guy or something. Tetora DoubleJay said: Akatsuki no Yona Its gonna be great. What did you like about it? I didn't find it well for how many people were looking forward to it. Hopefully the next few episodes can lead to somewhere besides "oh, I wish Soo-Won would recognize me" Maybe Hak will actually be less of a tsu tsu and tell Yona he likes her. It's really too obvious, imo. |
| Grisaia no Kajitsu 2/13 Wow my Sunday's are definitely going to keep it's reign as my favorite day of anime with these three shows. I'm liking all the characters and i'm really intrigued on learning all the back stories. I don't really have much more to say about the show this week though as were just planting development seeds, but so far this is in my top-5. Akame ga Kill! 15/23 So the big battle is finally upon us and i'm expecting like 3-4 deaths between both sides. There is going to be a lot of action, a lot of blood, and a lot of sadness in these coming episodes and hopefully i'll be able to get through it... Gugure! Kokkuri-san 2/12 Then finally we get to Gugure, which will most likely be my Gekkan Shoujo substitute and saving grace. I was so sad when Gekkan ended because one the show is awesome but two that when something really sad happened on Akame ga kill i could coup with it by the comedy value of Gekkan. I believe this will give me the comedy value that i need and i am giving a very early deeming of my favorite of the fall season. Log Horizon in time will most likely pass it but i got about 6-7 laughs out loud from this episode and i'm not a person that laughs at everything it takes a good amount to get some emotion out of me. It's going to be really weird with Inugami keep changing genders though. Speakss said: Tetora My question then is what is up with all the rubbing...O_O |

| Shigatsu wa Kimi no Osu If you're doing romance, don't introduce the main couple with a comedic misunderstanding. Apart from that, this was a quite solid episode. I really like the audiovisuals, except how the faces look. Characters are nice, interactions are nice. Decent so far, with potential to reach even higher. Comedy is subpar. Girlfriend (Kari) I guess this is one of the biggest surprises I've ever have, since this isn't an absolutely atrocious harem show. Instead, what we get is moe? I mean sure, I'm all for moe but I just can't shake the knowledge that this is literally Waifu the Animation. From a marketing perspective, this show is brilliant. But that's all this show is, a glorified commercial for a cellphone game. Dropped. |

I read Hibbington's post now, and neither of what he/she says would I classify as a spoiler (so I guess I was wrong about that, since I didn't read it). But if you're stating stuff like "X died", then you should definitely spoiler it, in-case someone hasn't watched up to it, and is coming to this thread. Again, better safe than sorry in my book. Also, a response to what you've said about Grisaia: I've heard the VN is a lot better from someone who reads it, and even put the anime at on-hold during the first episode because she thought it was really much worse. It's afaik really long though, like 36 hours? Haven't read it though, so don't take my word for it~ |

| Garo Episode 2 I feel like Garo's biggest strength is that it knows exactly what it's trying to do. It's a grim fantasy action story, and it's not trying to be anything different. This isn't something I think highly of critically, but I'm enjoying myself with it. As a person who writes fantasy to some extent, I'm enjoying the setting quite a bit. The story is meh, and the characters aren't particularly interesting, but I think it works well together. I'm hoping for a setting full of twists and turns and I doubt we've seen all of it yet. Although I really don't want this to turn into a back-and-forth between "WHO THE BAD GUY AND WHO THE GOOD GUY". |

| So first off, I've added another series to my overloaded anime season >.> Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai 1/12 I watch a lot of club anime so I was really bored sunday night so I thought what the hell, why not. It wasn't anything new but having this mystery element of some sort of secret entity around the school is enough for me to keep watching. Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de 2/12 With added a new show my mind was thinking what show could be on the chopping block and this was an option...until this episode. It was only maybe a 7/10 episode but it t showed that there was meaning to the MC's madness. Akatsuki no Yona 2/? So far this is a MUST WATCH in my mind, and it's not just because i'm marking out on how much it reminds me of dynasty warriors. The story seems like it's going to be rich, the drama and feelings are strong, and the music is pretty divine. Trinity Seven 2/12 So then next on the chopping block was Trinity Seven...but this delivered too. I like that they are building up different types of magical study, since this is a school and all, i just hope we continue to learn about them, not like the infamous mahou sensou. Also... So thus my only anime going on the chopping block for week three is Madan no Ou to Vanadis, as the rest of the shows i still need to watch ep. 2 99.9% won't. |

| Spread WIXOSS Episode 2 Hype. Shingeki no Bahamut Episode 2 This episode sucked. The setting is non-sensical and stupid, the characters are non-sensical and stupid, half the stuff that happens make no sense, Also, the MC is a cunt, but the anime seems to portray him as they think he's a like-able character. |

| Akatsuki no Yona Episode 2 My man, this episode was just great, exceeded beyond any expectations I had for this show. The characters and their interactions are really well handled, and the story seems hype as fuck. My big 4 of the season just became the big five, and there are no icebergs in sight. |

| Hitsugi no Chaika: Avenging Battle 2/10 So we finish up another battle with a hero. There was a good mapping out of all the future opponents that will be for the season. Red Chaika got more screen time this episode instead of just 10 seconds like the first episode. Will we pretty interesting to see what happens when the two chaika's meet again. I'm a little worried when it's only 10 episodes since we still have a good amount to cover from what is being mapped out THEORY Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai 2/12 So another member has joined the group, clearly this is another making friends club anime. Which is nothing new but it's a type of club anime that has worked for me in the past that generally i really enjoy. We actually introduced a few new characters this episode and looking at the title picture on MAL. We've pretty much met almost everyone which means we might be getting some real plot already. |

| Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru I have no idea what really hit me, but it certainly wasn't bad. I certainly don't know what this is though? Magical girl anime? Slice of Life? Action? Is this meant for kids or is this magical moe? Whatever it was, it certainly was enjoyable. Falls a bit short of stepping into my big 5 of the season though, and I might've just enjoyed 'moe helping people out' a bit more, but hey, you get what you get and anything above average I'm not disappointed in. |

| Fate! You didnt like Bahamut? I've never heard of the card game it's based off of, but I enjoyed it. At this point I'm looking at it more as just a comedy and not worring about the plot too much, I think he's funny haha |
| Since everyone is updating, gonna do it too. Psycho-Pass 2 2/11 This is a definition of a trainwreck. For start, the animation is worse, the first season had really good animation but seriously its prob the worst animation of all the shows i'm watching this season. Nothing memorable is happening, the new characters are boring, Urobuchi dont know how to write characters, this is what i didnt liked in the first season but they were gonna change writers so i tought we were gonna have some actual characters, NOPE, i dont care for anyone their exposition are so fucking bad. The first season they used tatics, in this one they they are just going all out. They got dumber. This show is all about the story, the first season all the dialogues was about a main theme ( the psycho pass system) the dialogues in this season have no meaning they are just boring and bad written. They introduced one actually good concept AND DID NOTHING WITH IT. This show is bad and makes me really angry. Akame ga kill 15/24 Still stereotipical shonen characters fighting one dimensional villains with gore, shock factor scenes and random slice of life jokes(?). Fate/Stay Night UBW 1/? Slow episode, focused on introduction of the characters. Ufotable made me dont hate Shiro that much. Nothing much to say, still raelly good. But the is kinda meh. Log Horizon 2nd season 2/25 Still really good. The animation is worst, this became even more clear this episode. They showed to us what old characters are doing and i loved. Needs more DATABASE. Kiseijuu 2/24 Starting to like this, after a weak first episode. Tolds us more about what is happening to the world and introduced new characters really well. And what i most liked: showed changes to personality of the main character and Migi. The key is lower the hype, not gonna be amazing but can easily be better than most things this season. Amagi Brilliant Park 3/13 Liking all the characters even more, the asshole protagonist is funny, Saber voice in the park mascot is funny, the jokes are funny, this is such a enjoyable anime. The visuals are so ducking pretty, its candy to my eyes. Didnt liked the kinda forced romance in the ending of the episode, but well, gonna enjoy a lot till it gets bad (please KyoAni dont make it bad, dont destroy my dreams). The show is still good, the art is still pretty, the characters are still lovable, the sky is still magical. Also wind is confirmed best girl. Girls in bikinis jumping up and down in an anime and there's no ridiculous and unrealistic boob bouncing happening? What is this witchcraft?! |

I don't find it funny so I just don't like it that way either, haha. I ended up dropping because I don't see it improving for myself either. Fellener said: Fate/Stay Night UBW 1/?

The WHAT is kind of meh? x) Denki-gai Episode 3 Weak compared to the other two eps. ED still catchy as fuck[/b] Yuuki Yuuna Episode 2 However stupid this may be, it isn't half bad and I'm enjoying myself. The soundtrack is top tier. Although I'm not caught up with everything, tier list for me so far: Masterpiece tier: Twintails Good tier: Yona, Sora no Method, WIXOSS, Denki-gai, Shirobako Decent tier: Garo, Kiseijuu, Yuuki Yuuna, Inou-Battle, Shigatsu Meh tier: Amagi, Kokkuri-san, Ushinawareta |

Speakss said: When you say animation do you mean character design or actual movement animation? Kinda both of them, some character designs i didnt liked, Nyanta and Marielle for exemple. And the actual animation felt weird sometimes, like the background of the cities and whem the characters are talking. But maybe is just me and i dont remember the first season well. |

I might be wrong, I often am, but I have heard that the current character designs are more in-line with the LN designs. That's only what I've heard though.. sadly, I have never read the LN. From what I saw the animation was alright, but I was quite tired so I probably just skipped several mistakes that you probably picked up on. I'd have to re-watch the episode to check. |
| Shirobako 2/12 Well now we see how a director can ruin a show, maybe Tokyo Ghoul's director should take note -.^. Like we see in anime we watch, being that they are getting as late as they are, things are most likely going to get rushed at the anime studio. Really good episode. Amagi Brilliant Park 3/13 So i was a bit annoyed with this episode . It was interesting that in our fanservice scene, which i know was coming eventually. They actually play up that sex doesn't actually sell like it use to, and if you see all the hate "fanservice" gets in at least on MAL. It is true. So with this anime giving us that revelation i was say that it was an average episode. Seiya is doing a lot of simple things to bring in more customers and so early in the game. You shouldn't bring out any trump cards until you can get a good return on investment. Donten ni Warau 3/12 I mean this episode was just plain out sad, as an older brother i know you can't keep ignoring your younger sibling like that he's going to find other means to reach his goal, and the path he took angers me inside. I had to pause the episode a couple times out of frustration. It definitely getting my emotions stirring so it's doing it's job... |

| Log Horizon 2nd Season 3/25 This is my 2nd favorite episode from Log Horizon, just behind episode 8 of the first season when they formed the Round Table. As a 10+ year MMO veteran I appreciate an episode like this that goes really into depth into the MMO world as we did with raiding. This is just one of the many reasons i gave the first season a 9/10 and shows how to do in depth explanations right, not like Mahouka did. Madan no Ou to Vanadis 3/13 So another anime is off my hot seat, this episode was pretty face pace as usual but at least they are consistent. . I'll go to episode 5 from here and then reevaluate my stance on if i'll finish this series. Ushinawareta Mirai wo Motomete 3/12 So my last anime on the hot seat, Will Stay on the hot seat!. Now has the series been bad, no. But i'm losing interest fast, the only thing that i find interesting is Kenny's character. As for the main concept... Theory |

| Sora no Method 3/13 The animation and sound are really good, fits really well with the summer slife of life mood they are trying to create. But the thing is, they are going for the drama, not for the relaxing slice of life, and the drama felt kinda a little forced. and i think is actually kinda predictable too, i bet they are gonna try really hard to be a tearjerker. One thing that makes me angry is that an UFO spawned in the city and no one gives 2 fucks about it, that city should've become a secret military base, at least. This anime is not bad, its actually good, the thing is i just didnt bought the idea. Gonna watch to see if they explain why no one gives a fuck about the UFO, but dont think it will happen. Maybe if they do the drama right this anime gets better for me. |
