It is not only great, but it is probably one of the best seasons of all time. It has too many anime that I would rate above 7/10


THats my imrpession aswell, it will propably be one of ther very few seasons that we will see many animes around 8 or even higher

This season is not that good!!
First, most anime have a great ep1, I think winter anime was the same: Ok there were fewer promising anime but look at how they all fainted halfway. Just check anime like Mahou sensou, great ep1, each other episode was shit. You can't talk for a whole season with ep 1, it's just a bait, they know how much important first impressions are.
Second, Don't compare to winter. This spring is average, the winter was bad,that's all, or maybe average with the sequel. If you find this season fine, then you didn't watch enough season...
Third, the more you're hyped, the more you are vulnerable to deception, never put your expectation so high, believe me, it hurts.

I have expectation from kouketsu no kabaneri and joker game though.

I smell pessimism around this post. Last winter was a lot better than the one before. Likewise, the beginning of fall 2014 had a lot of promising titles and it was indeed a fantastic season. There's a chance that spring 2016 is gonna be great as well.

Last winter was better than the one before? In which dimension?

It wasnt exceptional but with animes like Death parade--Tokyo Ghoul(not as good as first season but still nice)--Kuroko no basket S3 --Jojo--Saenai heroine--- DUradara x2 was a LOT better

Those anime were really bad to me (haven't seen jojo or Durarara). The only good anime of winter 2015 was Yuri Kuma Arashi and good anime is quite generous because it was frankly disappointing for an Ikuhara anime.

DUnno what u define good, but imo except Rakugan all the rest were levels below Kuroko no basket--DUradara-Death parade-Jojo--ALdnoah zero.

Yuri KUma akashi was actually one of the worse of this season and the 7.15 rating is actually quite high for all the trash it was

and magically the majority of the spring animes have been something more than encouraging!!!Great fantasy/mystery and shounen titles/military/historical

There are at least 5-6 animes with potentional of over 8 rating this season...this is absurd after what winter season has been. I am so happy, have a great watch everyone!

I agree! Last season I even think -- "anime is not that great anymore. should I stop watching?". And this season like -- "no way I can leave anime!"
My top 5 (for now, might change later): Kotetsujou no kabaneri, re zero kara hajimaru isekai seikatsu, bungou stray dogs, joker game, netoge no yome.

How can you say this season has too many anime that you'd rate a 7/10 or above when most series haven't even gone past the 2nd episode? Are you judging based on MAL synopsis or something? It only takes 1 episode for an anime to become utter shit.

This season is okay so far, nothing really looks like it'll go beyond good other then ConRevo and Ushio + Tora. Maybe Sakamoto will save anime though. It's not bad at all, I haven't dropped any of the shows I'm watching but most of them are good at best.


DId u watch Kutetsujou no Kabaneri first epis? It was pretty hype!
You misspelled trainwreck.
From what I've seen except for jojo there's nothing above average for now, joker game might have the potential to be the other outstanding anime of this season but still early to decide.

I haven't really seen that one first episode that blew my mind, but a few shows definitely showed a lot of promise.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Strange that from everything you pick only the positive ones. Imo graphics/soundtrack were good but not outstanding. I can't see why MC would be awesome.
Graphics and soundtrack can be improved with budget and technology and become forgettable with time, story and characters when well done remain solid even years after so not everything counts the same in an anime. Graphics and soundtrack are secondary most of the time.

I wouldn't call this bad but even with all action shows being shown in the screen, my greatest reaction is "I think I like this one."


About Kabaneri, I thought it was fine. Nothing great. AOT already had us surprised with its opening episode so we can't expect the same trick done twice hitting us with the same intensity.

Now, if only that show is gonna be a faster version of AOT then color me happy.

The spring season seems good so far.
It's definitely better than fall 2015 which was littered with the generic harem series.
One punch man was the only exception and it was overhyped.

They are not secondary if they are outstanding, and the animation of this anime is top notch and so far the MC looks very good . PLus the plot is very interesting there are always gonna be generic genres like romance/mechas/mystery/ zombies or whatever. THe whole issue is how u implement this to a solid plot. And having small towns communicate each other through trains while they defend zombies with iron hearts, its bloody damn exciting. Steam guns? hell yeah

For me animation is like food dressing, if the food (story) is not good the dressing is negligible (like OPM) instead if the food is good the dressing was something secondary. Until it looks fine I don't care about the animation, ace attorney has bad animation, knk joker game bnha stray dogs look almost the same for me. I can see they have different styles and comparing their animation I think knk is the better one but overall they are the same for me. For me the only anime with outstanding animation this season is jojo.
As for knk MC I don't see why he is awesome yet. He is another generic edgelord (everything he does is for the shock value). In snk that worked thanks to the calm atmosphere in the first half, knk failed because starts already with tension. Let alone that how MC saved his life in knk is more bs than snk.

I think that this spring season is not half bad. I'm currently watching about 10 of the new anime shows. Since I'm a sucker for good mystery/action/shounen/seinen anime shows I have a rather high expectation for some of them (for example, Re:Zero, Bungou Stray Dogs, Boku no Hero Academia, Joker Game and (of course) Koutetsujou no Kabaneri). The plots of most of them are really innovative and are compelling exactly because they are offering something new (or maybe that's just how I see them). There is just one thing I don't quite get. How can people decide on what score an anime deserves after watching only one episode? I find it almost inconceivable (because I always rate an anime after I've finished watching it). That's why I think that the current ratings are most definitely misleading and do not take into account the true potential that the anime shows have. I know that there are probably people who will counter my point but I'm still willingly giving out my opinion out here. ;) Be kind ^^

So far I have enjoyed the 1st episode of Kiznaiver, the first 2 episodes of Mayoiga (really good in suspense building), the prologue and first episode of Re:zero was amazing, the first episode of Kabane of the Iron Fortress was badass, 1st episode of Joker Game is mediocre (need more impressions on it), Hero Academy's 1st episode was alright (reminded me of OPM for some reason which I don't like, but I didn't mind the same theme in this anime), and the 1st episode of Stray Dogs didn't really catch my interest, but I will stick with it, since I generally like seinen.

Right now, I find this spring season pretty average BUT who knows it might change to above average once the storys get deeper. I mean only 1-2 episodes have been released of most spring releases so far. Even if the first 1-2 made poor or positive impact on us that can quickly change as more episodes come out.
