a)
1. To LOVE-Ru Darkness 2nd
2. Gakkou Gurashi
3. Shimoneta to Iu Gainen ga Sonzai Shinai Taikutsu na Sekai
4. Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya 2wei Herz
5. Overlord

b)
Bikini Warriors. Really there is no way this anime should have turned out as entertaining as it did but yeah, there you go :>

c)
Chaos Dragon: Sekiryuu Seneki is the biggest mess I've seen in forever. Total garbage in every way
God Eater also started absolutely horribly but at least it's gotten slightly better since the beginning (though it still sucks too)

d)
Classroom☆Crisis. I'm not going to lie, the first five or so episodes of this anime sucked. Like really they were boring and uninteresting as hell. But then... something happened, and suddenly the anime has actually gotten really good thanks to some stellar plot twists, excellent story progression and great character development. Oh and don't even get me started on the cliffhangers the last 2-3 weeks :3

e)
Chaos Dragon: Sekiryuu Seneki and God Eater for the aforementioned reasons, but also The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls 2nd Season due to being an utter mess of a drama which is a huge embarrassment in comparison to the original iDOLM@STER, and Aoharu x Kikanjuu for having a plot with more holes than a swiss cheese, plus the blatant fujoshi bait of course

f)
Gangsta by far. I really don't see anything special about this anime at all and I never have. The story is uninteresting, the characters are incredibly boring and the entire show feels like it pretends to be mature, yet it still has crap like DBZ-esque action scenes with people fighting with dual-wield katanas up-side-down in mid-air, jumping up and down buildings like fucking ninjas and god knows what else. Realistic my ass

g)
Honestly, Summer seasons have a tendency to be pretty lackluster, but this season is actually very solid overall. Whether it's actually better than Spring or not is debatable, but it's certainly up there. Fall looks a lot worse in comparison ironically enough

a.] Name your current Top five Best favotite so far and state why you chose them being the first as your poll vote.

1. Joukamachi no Dandelion = Incredibly hilarious and entertaining, also has pretty good character design
2. Rokka no Yuusha
3. Non Non Biyori
4. Gakkou Gurashi
5. Gate

b.] What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?
Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya 2wei Herz. This show is hilarious and has great battle scenes but also...well...lewd as heck

c.] What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?
Dragon Ball Super. Only has few battles, and that battle animation/art is rather disappointing. Not what I've expected from the usual Dragon Ball, well, I still love it though.

d.] What show do you think was underrated?
Joukamachi no Dandelion, it's ranked around 2500-2700 th. Usually an anime within that rank is mediocre, and not very entertaining. But Dandelion is so enjoyable at every episode and incredibly funny.

e.] What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Prison School, Incredibly scary and turning-off, full of demonic-women. I thought I've seen living hell. Ugh....this show is a big no for me. Serve me right for randomly picking the anime and stepping on a land mine.

f.] What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
Shimoneta. I don't see anything interesting in this anime other than being very wacky and a bit funny

g.] Overall, What do you think of this season so far?
This season has surprising anime, like Rokka no Yuusha, Gakkougurashi, and Dandelion, I've never expected them to be unexpectedly interesting and enjoyable. Definitely a great season.

Ugh, haven't watched enough to make a top 5 or even answer all of these questions.

The most impressive first episode was Rokka no Yuusha and Aoharu x Kikanjuu.
The one I have the most high hopes for is Aoharu x Kikanjuu.
The two that have surprised me the most are Prison School and Jokumachi no Dandelion because I didn't expect to like either of this otaku pandering bullshit but turns out, they're both super creative and funny.
A show I was hyped for but hated it after it aired is Ranpo Kitan because it's just really disappointing and uninteresting.
A show I tried out but hated it at first glance is Charlotte and Ufotable-- I mean God Eater. I dropped the latter because it just looks like shit and I hate action anime as well as ufotable.
A few shows that have gotten fair ratings and are consistent are: Working!! - romance development is top notch btw, Junjou Romantica - actually better than shitty season 2, and Akagami no Shirayuki-hime which is fairly good.
A show I don't know why I continue watching is Umaru-chan. I don't know. It's kind of cute sometimes and I love her character design.
I also started Gangsta but I haven't finished the first episode. I'm not really interest at the moment.

a.]
1. Working!!!
2. NNB Repeat
3. Wakaba*Girl
4. Himouto! Umaru-Chan

(There is no 5, out of the remaining summer shows I'm watching, none of them are good enough to really be considered)

Working season 3 is the most consistent comedy, and is wrapping up the source material better than I expected.

b.] Monster Musume, I honestly quite hate the show but the hope of episodes centred around Papi or Doppel keeps me coming back only to be disappointed in 8/10 cases. The rest of the cast is garbage. The ecchi is bad. The voice acting and music mostly sucks. The comedy is mostly flat and stale, and the plot is constructed for the sake of bad ecchi.

c.]Rokka no Yuusha. Exactly the type of low-hanging fruit for slackjaws which poisons the fantasy genre; overly vibrant colour pallette, high fantasy with fetish mixed in, awful music by Elements Garden, self-important plot which is a sideshow to gimmickry. This type of show is everything wrong about anime.

d.] Wakaba*Girl is the most underrated. It's one of the best shorts I've seen, and is paying rating tax just for being a short - coupled with two weak opening episodes made this show one of the most underappreciated gems of the past decade.

e.] Monster Musume. Already mentioned why.

f.] Gangsta. Typical self-important 'alternative' anime pure-bred to pander to elitists and machismo-loving lowbrows. Tied with Charlotte, which Key uninspiredly shat out from nothing but contractual obligations. Also tied with Gakkou Gurashi - Which is to slice of life / cute girls what Highschool DxD is to ecchi. A show for insecure closet slice-of-life fans that don't want to admit to others what they like.

g.] Very poor season in quantity, very good season in quality; carried by Working!!! and NNB.

a.] Name your current Top five Best favotite so far and state why you chose them being the first as your poll vote.
1. Ushio to Tora ( it is one of the best shows this summer, and reminds me a lot of previous great shonen series. Also I love the story and seiyuus are amazing.)
2. Gangsta
3. Gate
4. Durarara
5. Overlord
b.] What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?
My guilty pleasure is Monster Musume, I don't know why I even watch it :D.
c.] What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?
Chaos Dragon, neither the animation, nor the story are what I expected, and has some horrendous CGI.
d.] What show do you think was underrated?
Rokka no Yuusha.
e.] What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Shimoneta - Really RETARDED. I had huge hopes for it, but with these dirty jokes, that don't even make sense it sucks REALLY BAD. I watched 7 episodes only because of Ana, if it wasn't for her, I probably would've dropped it at 3.
f.] What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
Gakkou Gurashi - I tried to watch it, but I don't get what people are so hyped about, some crazy girl is living in a world of her own, while in reality there are zombies. Not something that is Innovative in any way.
g.] Overall, What do you think of this season so far?
This season is great, a lot of great anime series, and time flew by really fast. I really can't complain about it. The next season will be even better.

UPDATED with threads from the previous seasons

It's my time to shine. Okay, Here's my choice of the best amongst the bestos.

a.] Name your current Top five Best favotite so far and state why you chose them being the first as your poll vote.

1. Prison School a.k.a Kangoku Gakuen - Fun.Lewd.Crotch.Vagigi.Panty-shots.DirtyJokes.CaptivatingArt.Etc. Everything in this anime is just pure genuine knowledge of how to attract boiling male rods which turned out unexpectedly fucking wholesome and great.
2. GOD EATER - Don't hate me for this but holy shit, it's awesome for my tastes. I'm not a shounen-fag but i just love how it looks, sounds and everything. It doesn't seem to have any actual back-ground plot to begin with but they're doing a great job with it. PLUS ALISA's BOOBS. Never will i ignore HD 2D+cgi boobs in front of a screen.
3. Shimoneta - It may just seem like your typical generic fanservice shit about dirty jokes that's been recycled numerous times already but stop right here right now. It's not. Give this show a chance and you might get the best worthy laughable experience ever.
4. Ushio to tora - Nothing beats the good old nostalgia feels of the 2000's. Heck, even the 1990's
5. Charlotte - Just like my #2 pick, please don't hate my absolutely typical shitty taste for this. I love key as i gave a whooping 9 or 10 for their adaptation of Little Busters. It's pretentious and gimmicky at times but it'll get to it eventually.

b.] What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?

PRISON SCHOOL, my reason above and UMARU-chan because i like cute little fucks.

c.] What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?

Ranpo Kitan, definitely didn't expect that coming from a noitaminA show. I don't know but it doesn't feel right. I know it tries to deliver what it could but i guess for me its just meh.

d.] What show do you think was underrated?
Ushio To Tora, Watch this folks, You'll never regret.

e.] What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Nothing.

f.] What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
Rokka No Yuusha and Overlord mainly because of the hype it gets (for the latter) and the replies it gets (for the former) which i can't comprehend for some reason. Well maybe for Rokka, yes it's understandable because of the very conflict that it tries to solve which turns out to be very gimmicky and pretentious.

g.] Overall, What do you think of this season so far?
Decent, On par with Spring.

  • Prison School
  • Durarara!!x2 Ten
  • Teekyuu 5
  • Monster Musume
  • Gangsta


b.] What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?

None of them.

c.] What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?

Most of them didn't.

d.] What show do you think was underrated?

None of them was.

e.] What show are you currently disliking right now and why?

Gakkou Gurashi! - Too much slice of life and too little zombies. No suspense whatsoever since almost every zombie encounter happened in flashbacks. The setting is ridiculous and the only reason this can lead to somewhere is if it forces some stupid shit.

f.] What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?

Most of them are overrated.

Gangsta - The story is a letdown.
Non Non Biyori - Too high for a plotless slice of life comedy.
Overlord - Too high for a wish fulfillment show.
Gate - Same as above.
Shimoneta - Boring characters.
Rokka no Yuusha - The mystery became boring when one of the characters started to act way too suspiciously.
Gakkou Gurashi - See e.]
Himouto! - Same as NNB.
Monster Musume - Same as above.
Fate/kaleid - Way too many episode spent on pointless slice of life with fanservice.

g.] Overall, What do you think of this season so far?

Mediocre just like the last 4 seasons.

1a. My personal top 5 are
Prison School-Love the comedy and the characters and just different in the best of ways. Best use of school setting.
Rokka No Yuusha-Expected a save the world anime and received a great mystery with good pacing and tension.
Working!!!-Great continuation from the last two seasons.
Overlord-Kinda predictable but very entertaining and the world seems pretty cool.
God Eater-My kind of show with a unique art style and good animation. Plus quality underboob.

1b. Guilty Pleasure is definitely Himouto Umaru-chan. Didn't expect much but each episode is relatable in a sense and is very cute.

1c. One of the more underperforming anime, imo, was Chaos Dragon. Couldn't get into the world or the characters, which is saddening because I was excited for this one.

1d. Classroom Crisis for sure. It started off slow and it picked up pretty decently. Nagisa is one of my more favorite characters from this season.

1e. Anime I'm currently disliking-
Jitsua-comedy isn't sticking for me and not the best character designs imo. Plus the world isn't good.
Shimoneta-a bit too ridiculous at times for me and not enough hormonal decisions from our MC.
Aoharu-Takes itself way too seriously, unless that's the comedy of it? Idk, only saving grace is Yukimura.
Dragon Ball Super-Need I say more than Battle of Gods cash grab? And that animation.

1f. I don't know exactly what was hyped up and what not but the shows that I feel are overrated are Overlord and Gangta. Now I did mention that I like Overlord but the plot is very predictable imo, I mean there's never any tension or fear and for Gangsta....well it seems that there just could have been more. Both are enjoyable but not super stand outs. God Eater gets flak only because stupid fans don't do research and expected an anime based off of a video game to be amazing with it's plot and characters.

1g. I went into this season not expecting much and came out satisfied. Most of the anime are nothing special but are really enjoyable. For all the fanservice anime this season most of them hold up well. Though I feel some of the best airing anime right now are from spring; Shokugeki, Arslan and Baby Steps. Better than Winter but on par or worse than Spring.
Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime?

There is so much good stuff this season it's really hard to choose. I was looking forward to Monster Musume and Prison School, but Shimoneta and Overlord were surprisingly good.

I guess my vote goes to Monster Musume, because I've been waiting for that adaption for forever.

Series that I liked at First:

Shimoneta started out great but got repetitive really quickly after 4 episodes

Gangsta got ruined for me by the super human powers tags

Overlord a big meh I like papa bones but the rest is meh not bad not great either.

Umaru is cancerous I got baited by the cute Umaru but she quickly turned into a bitch

a.] Name your current Top five Best favorite so far and state why you chose them being the first as your poll vote.
1. Prison School-faithful to the manga, the comedy is just pure gold added with quality art.
2. Rokka no Yuusha
3. Non Non Biyori
4. Overlord
5. Sore ga Seiyuu (yeah I'm serious)

b.] What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?
Prison School

c.] What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?
Chaos Dragon

d.] What show do you think was underrated?
Sore ga Seiyuu, it focuses more on the side of voice acting industry which gives us an eye opener of how hard it is to be a VA. And it's just disappointing that only few recognizes this series.

e.] What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Gakkou Gurashi, at first this is my primary bet as the AOTS but as time goes by, I mean just look at where this show is on my top 5, none even Sore ga seiyuu beats the shit out of this show as my favorite why:
1. They dragged the SOL too much, not on the same level as in the manga.
2. They cut too many important scenes just to come up with a filler swimming episode.
3. The mood of this show became less darker than in the manga which is kinda underwhelming because of putting too much SOL.

f.] What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
Charlotte, the 1st half is just a waste of time, added the Maeda bingo where every scene is to be expected on a Maeda show, in short nothing new.

g.] Overall, What do you think of this season so far?
Well it's fine at least.

1. Gangsta and Overlord for a tied 1st place, they are both great and has some likeables MCs.
2. Aoharu x Kikanjuu is after those two, it's quite decent and I like all 3 main characters.
3. Afterwardly it would be DB Super. I'm currently enjoying the Battle of Gods arc more than it's movie counterpart
4. Charlotte I suppose, though the only thing I like about it is Nao.


b.] What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?
Charlotte I guess, it's one helluva trainwreck lately but still somewhat enjoyable I suppose.

c.] What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?
Easily Chaos Dragon Sekiryuu.

d.] What show do you think was underrated?
Not sure bout this.

e.] What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Chaos Dragon Sekiryuu - it feels like the Akame ga Kill of 2015, characters dying left and right and most of the characters are generic and/or lack any form for depth + the characters who dies just leaves me thinking "...meh not like I got attached to him/her anyway".

f.] What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
Charlotte was quite hyped, so I guess that one?

g.] Overall, What do you think of this season so far?
Not the best, but not that bad either.

a. Name your current Top five Best favotite so far and state why you chose them being the first as your poll vote.
1. Rokka No Yuusha Is my favorite this season. I consider it to be worth a score around 7-8 depending on how it ties itself together at the end. It earns it's score by effectively merging mystery and action, though the identity of the 7th may be obvious to some, I found the solution to how they were trapped to be more intriguing and it delivered thoroughly on that. In regards to the characterization of each individual, there are some who received more spotlight than others however those who were In focus received enough. I can only hope that a second season Is coming so that these characters can become more complex In their behavior.
2. Arslan Senki
3. God Eater
4. Ushio To To
5. Gangsta

b. What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?
I guess God Eater.
c. What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?
From what I've heard, Chaos Dragon Is a mess worse than Charlotte but because I've only watched 7 series this summer, It has to be Charlotte.
d. What show do you think was underrated?
Ushio To Tora. Would've said Rokka No Yuusha some time ago but it suddenly gained popularity.
e. What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Charlotte, mostly because the first episode gave me the illusion that this could be exciting and I've watched it gradually devolve Into a trainwreck of conveniences.
f. What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
Overlord. Seeing the hype surrounding a story which provides no tension In regards to danger and where everyone but the main character can be replaced by a cardboard, and their personalities would be largely unchanged. Doesn't help that Ainz has done nothing of significance In proportion to his power.
g. Overall, What do you think of this season so far?
It's been alright, I guess.

a.)
- Non Non Biyori Repeat
- Akagami no Shirayuki-hime
- The rest

b.) Since Shokugeki doesn't count, Shimoneta would be the closest, I suppose.

c.) Charlotte. Terribly executed and far from an "improvement" over Angel Beats.

d.) Dandelion and Sore ga Seiyuu are both underrated imo. Classroom Crisis has gotten more intriguing as well, though I can't forgive it for its lack of identity during the first half.

e.) Again, Charlotte.

f.) Gangsta was a pleasure to watch initially, but when power levels were introduced, I kinda lost interest. The steadily declining animation quality doesn't help either. It has its moments but it largely feels lifeless. The Manglobe feel is present though.

g.) Although a lot of titles sounded interesting from their synopses, only one non-sequel managed to retain my attention (Akagami). The rest, as expected, started out strong but have since fizzled out or lost their novelty, with a few exceptions.

a.] Name your current Top five Best favotite so far and state why you chose them being the first as your poll vote.
1. Akagami no Shirayuki-hime
2. Rokka no Yuusha
3. Shimoneta
4. Overlord

Akagami and Rokka is honestly tied at the first place, they are just as equally good and fulfilling my fantasy adventure needs. Next two shows below were quite a surprises as I just picked them up few days ago because I wanted to marathon them instead of watch them weekly and honestly, Shimoneta and Overlord are best shows of the season. Sure, they don't have that much value but they are pure enjoyment shows which at this point is more than enough for me.

b.] What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?
Overlord and Shimoneta.

Shimoneta because it's pretty dumb, but I dunno, the more perverted and lewd the stuff is the funnier I find it, I was peeing my pants almost every episode.

Overlord because even though it has one of shittiest and "it's gonna be another otaku bullshit" premises, it surprised me greatly. I dunno, I'm trying not to be biased but seriously, Madhouse nailed this one - the way they made visuals a bit darker, the lightning effects, the slow, but very good pacing - all that makes the atmosphere really... unique, you just want to watch more.

c.] What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?
Gate, probably. It had really nice first three episodes, the third episode being the highlight of the show. I really hoped it wouldn't devolve into bland, uninteresting bleah with harem-ish LN goofs, sadly this is exactly what happened.

d.] What show do you think was underrated?
Eh, it has become a trend of sort, for 4 seasons straight my favorites were all rated kinda on the low side, I dunno. This time again, my favorites Akagami and Rokka are underrated imo.

e.] What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Charlotte. Reminds me a lot of Guilty Crown, where the author just throws any idea that seems "kewl" and doesn't think about things as logic or in general being tasteful.

f.] What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
There aren't many highly rated show this season, but the only one that is noticeably above 8 is Gangsta? The name already suggests that it's kind of a casual bait.

g.] Overall, What do you think of this season so far?
Best season of the year so far from me, I manged to pick mostly good shows and although there are quite a handful of meh or even horrible shows, they are still more or less enjoyable, which previous seasons failed to do, especially Spring, having record number of trash.

These two I look forward to every week. I don't care much about other shows.


b.] What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?
Fate Kaleid Prisma Illya, Overlord


c.] What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?
Charlotte, Overlord - both have terrible pacing and screen usage

d.] What show do you think was underrated?
Arslan Senki, Prison School

e.] What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Charlotte, Overlord, Umaru.. basically everything that isn't mentioned in a.]

f.] What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
Rokka no Yuusha , Charlotte ,Shimoneta, Gangsta.
Rokka no Yuusha is terribly dragged and really stupid with awful animation.
Charlotte became shitfest after 6th episode. Before it was average.
Shimoneta - repetitive unfunny jokes, small amount of ecchi in ecchi show, no real story, basically it's shit, only good thing about it is Anna.
Gangsta - weak story.

g.] Overall, What do you think of this season so far?
Idk, average, the only good anime is Prison School and Arslan. Autumn looks better.

a.] Name your current Top five Best favotite so far and state why you chose them being the first as your poll vote.
- Gakkou Gurashi - I never expected to like this show as much. Nor to be as well directed as it is. One of greatest shows this year so far.
- Fate/Prisma Illya 2wei Herz - My favorite fight of whole 2wei part of the manga adapted with brilliant Silverlink quality and choreography that is unmatched in terms of anime tv shows.
- Durarara!X2 Ten - What can I say. DRR is one of the most underrated franchises and the way it weaves together dozens of very unique and different characters, plot lines and plot twists is brilliant.
- Rokka no Yuusha - Came in only knowing that it is supposed to be a mystery/detective kind of show in fantasy setting. While the mystery part feels way too contrived and asspully near the end, the psychological and thriller elements are dam near perfect. The author took a fantasy setting and turned it upside down. And the anime adaptation added a damn brilliant and unique Aztec motif to the setting.

b.] What Summer 2015 TV series became your guilty-pleasure?
I dont watch shows for guilty pleasure tbh, so none.

c.] What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?
Charlotte. What a freaking otaku-baiting mess.

d.] What show do you think was underrated?
Rokka no Yuusha(because some people write it off as "generic fantasy" without looking deeper) and Prisma Illya 2wei Herz(because despite all the "omg omg spin off loli stuff" misinformation it still remains the only good fate adaptation to date with some breathtaking action sequences)

e.] What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Charlotte. The first ~10 minutes of first episode are some of the most promising things ever. Followed by next 10 minutes creating disappointment of the decade. The show encompasses everything that is wrong with anime industry. Cliche characters, "slice of life comedy" with no purpose, horrible pacing....and whats most frustrating - it ruins such a great premise the first few minutes of the first episode have set.

f.] What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
Gangsta. It is the Edgelord Show of this season and I could not go past second episode. The show tries way too much to be "dark" and "mature"(I doubt the author knows what that word means) and in overdoing that ends up feeling like a bad Grand Theft Auto fanfic meets a really bad Black Lagoon fanfic. Ughhh. Will never understand the hype this edgelordery gets.

g.] Overall, What do you think of this season so far?
Way better than the spring(which only had Kekkai Sensen as good and shitload of trainwrecks and disappointments). Some of my most awaited scenes are done perfectly in both Herz and Durarara. Might be first time in quite a while that I get to watch more than two or three shows at once too, so this year is shaping up to be great, if Fall season is even half as good as this,.

My gulity pleasure goes to Sky Wizards Academy.
c. What show do you think out of all the 24-minute contenders didn't perform well over-all?
Aoharu x Machinegun performed worse than I expected. There is far too much melodrama when it comes to the actions of the main cast which really makes me question, should I really sympathise with them even though they've gone through stupid hardship. Also Hotaru still has yet to announce she's a girl which is getting frustrating by the second.
d. What show do you think was underrated?
Joukamachi no Dandelion is a unique sibling comedy and is lighthearted with some nice drama which adds to the overall cuteness of the show.
e. What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Venus Project - the initial delays
f. What show do you think is the most overrated this season and why?
Gakkougurashi. While I do love the moe zombie scenes and backstories, the CGDGT just isn't enough to forever entertain me and so it should just progress with the goddamn story already.

A)1.Rokka no Yuusha-works pretty well as a "mystery" anime...could have been better in the art department
2.Gakkou Gurashi-Its actually very well directed.
3.Fate Kaleid-it took some time to pick up,but when it did, it literally blew everything out of the water.
4. Durarara!X2 Ten-for something very similar to Baccano which is heralded by one and all mostly,this one does manage to hold its ground.
5.Non Non Biyori Repeat-CGDCT at its finest :>



B)Prison School-I watch it mainly to see whether there is a solution for "ass vs tits".Also,Bikini Wariors because dem plots.

C)Chaos Dragon-I mean this is what you get when two non serious writers weave together a plot while playing Bayonetta.

D)Durarara!X2 Ten-Its not really appreciated very well over here it seems.

E)Overlord and Charlotte-Overlord is just plain facepalm worthy and Charlotte seems like a trainwreck.

F)Overlord,Charlotte preferably because they are talked about pretty often over here.

G)Its a mixed bag.Some lke Rokka,Durarara are good while some like Chaos Dragon are plain bad.

5. Rokka no Yuusha (but not really best favorite, it's just ok)

Ranpo Kitan: Game of Laplace. It had a potential. Even though art and sound are good, story is very bad.

Aoharu x Kikanjuu, I guess. I personally avoided it at first and haven't expected it to be so enjoyable.

e. What show are you currently disliking right now and why?
Charlotte because it's a pointless show about nobody doing nothing with nonexistent problems. There is a facade that can be mistaken for characters and story but it's actually empty.

Charlotte? It has a surprisingly high score.

My faves are Rokka then Jitsu Wa Watashi Wa then Shimoneta then Charlotte. I dropped Akagami and on holded Ore Monogatari cause they bored me. Dropped Gangsta, dropped Overlord, dropped Gakkou Gurashi, dropped Classroom Crisis.

I'm very picky if you can't tell. Of the ones I dropped, may go back to Overlord or Ore Monogatari.

Rokka is the best. No fanservice and clear mystery. Very smart show and not gimmicky either which is nice. Everything flows at a good pace and hooks you. All the characters are great. Pace is fantastic. Art is great and animation superb at its best and enjoyable enough at its worst.

a.
1. Ushio to Tora- Old school shounen comedy, the way that ushio and tora play off each other can be funny. 6/10 so far.
2.Working!!!- The interaction between characters is hilarious and has plot. 6/10
3. Akagami- strong female lead but the plot takes forever to do anything. 5/10
4. Gangsta- the plot is horrible, but decent rule of cool. 4/10.
5. Kyoukai no Rinne- the narrator is great and most of the characters are funny. The only problem is that are has not been much variety in terms of jokes and not much of a plot. it is like a worse version of Ranma 1/2 spliced with inuyasha without the hilarious transformation antics. 5/10
b. my favorite 5 shows of this season beside Working!!!
c. Chaos dragon?
d. Ushio to Tora
e. Rokka no Yuusha. I solved the Rokka No Yuusha mystery in the first few episodes because either the story is really bad at mystery or the animation director is really incompetent by dropping too many hints.
F. Charlotte- anime fans are easily pleased by shows with rapid tonal shifts, silly setting, awful pacing and focus (Plastic memories tier) and the characters are not even good enough to carry the shows awful plot. It is getting ridiculous when people are defending it because the writer was sad and depressed.
G. The worst season and probably the worst year in a decade in terms of new quality shows. One Punch Man and Perfect insider are the only two shows I can see saving this awful year.
