Did you find a satisfying number of shows?
What are some of your impressions on the new season?
I find it a weak season to start the year with, but I am pleaantly surprised with shows like: Boku dake ga Inai Machi (actually watched first episode 2 times and read manga the same day) and Dagashi Kashi.

less "wow" starting but more average shows. at least better than last winter for sure.

It looks like a weak season but compared to other winters, it's surprisingly good. Boku Dake ga Inai Machi and Sekkou Boys have definitely caught my interest and Ansatsu Kyoushitsu 2 seems to be enjoyable aswell.

Grimgar Is the first "Trapped In a vydagume" that didn't immediatly repulse me from the first episode since Log Horizon. The only thing disturbing my peace of mind Is the horrendous character design. Either this adds good characterization or it falls on it's face.

Boku dake ga Inai Machi Is an interesting little thing and seems to have the hype with it. I am unsure what to say about it currently a part from the brisk pace the first episode had not being too much of a detriment.

Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu Is the odd one out. I don't know what I think of this yet but I have nothing overly negative to say, unlike Dagashi Kashi which just seems like a bunch of one note characters attempting to amuse the viewer. Alas, I was not amused with the references it throws around.

I was also excited for Dagashi Kashi, and Boku dake ga Inai Machi took me by surprise. I also hope to enjoy the sequels to anime including Ansatsu Kyoushitsu, Durarara and Akagami no Shirayuki-hime, so I'm quite contempt with this season. Quantity-wise I am satisfied, though there may not be much else, but at least I have more time to finish other anime I haven't completed.

Yeah dagashi and boku dake are the ones I feel worth watching, so weak.
Hope boku dake doesn't screw up like last year's charlotte(if you remember 1st ep) since it has something like 50/60 chap to be adapted in 12ep

So far, there are definitely a few that have caught my interests. Boke dake ga Inai Machi, Dagashi Kashi, and Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu are my two favorites as of right now. And today's first episodes of Dimension W, Hai to Gensou no Grimgar, and Schwarzesmarken were all very promising.

Just waiting on Ao no Kanata Four Rhythm and Ajin now~

Very good start imo, except Divine Gate, who for the moment is average, I liked the rest of the series I started. Durararax2 Ketsu's first episode takes the cake, however.

Ao Kanata no Four Rhythm and ERASED I'm really excited for. Season 2 of GATE and Akagami no Shirayukihime are also high on my priority list. Nearly half of the new series coming this winter I am interested in so that should keep me busy for the next few months.

It's probably the weakest season I've ever seen. And I'm being completely honest when I say that.
I doubt someone could come up with another suggestion of an inferior anime season...

But I guess it's just fine... I have lots of other anime to watch so it's a good time to watch all the stuff that I have for months on the 'plan to watch' list.

The moment they show a half-naked underaged girl (that is like 10 min into the episode) I became dissapointed. Still going to watch it tho...

OT: I would not call it neither good or average, it's above average (probably a 7/10) for what I watched there's not a bad show they're all average or above average and some of them are good or really good depending on the show.

So far I'd say it's the best winter season in the last few years and better than Fall 2015. Only the first week but I'm enjoying it so far.

So far I've watched Shoujo-tachi wa Kouya wo Mezasu which has my interest with it's simple art and charming characters. Same for Dagashi Kashi which I thought was pretty funny. I also liked Bubuki Buranki for it's animation and character designs. The world seems interesting... but the story is a mess. Musaigen no Phantom World looks great visually and was pretty fun.

I don't like Haruchika at all, the highlight of the episode was the twins being cute and Chika has a cat. Listening to the brainac explains puzzles is so boring.

ERASED was interesting but I'm not really into it.

I still have Grimgar, Divine Gate, GATE s2, Koukaku no Pandora, and Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu to watch. I'm hyped for Ao no Kanata no Four Rhythm and especially Glass no Hana to Kowasu Sekai.

TL;DR it's decent, lots of fun things to check out

Divine Gate
Shoujo-tachi wa Kouya wo Mezasu
Bubuki Buranki

Not sure:
Prince of Stride: Alternative
Musaigen no Phantom World
Nijiiro Days
Sekkou Boys
Norn9: Norn+Nonet

Trash:
Haruchika: Haruta to Chika wa Seishun Suru
Active Raid: Kidou Kyoushuushitsu Dai Hachi Gakari

So far the winter season's been good.

I've watched:
Boku dake ga Inai Machi which is amazing.
Norn9 has some interesting characters and story.
Ansatsu Kyoushitsu 2nd season is decent but expected more.
Dagashi Kashi is funny and entertaining.
Divine Gate is alright but not the best.

That's all the series I've watched so far of the winter season and their's still more I need to watch.

I'm still waiting for Attack on Titan season 2 though......

But imagine Boku dake ga Inai Machi and Dagashi Kashi aren't in this season.
I'm pretty sure that this two shows are the saviors of this season.
