Have any of you guys found this season a bit dull ? I'm new to following seasonal anime so I have no idea what I'm talking about. But it looks to me like this season is less interesting.
Have you guys found any good series ?

Gintama., Youjo Senki, Little Witch Academia, Kuzu no Honkai, Kono Suba, Kobayashi maid dragon, Demi-chan, and etc. This season may not be the best, but there are at least a few things you can watch and enjoy.

Yeah it is. Slow is a good word. There's isn't really anything fast, captivating, exciting this season. The good shows are all either sequels or slow stuff like ACCA.
Kuzu no Honkai seems the new most hyped show this season but it really didn't do anything for me. Well animated strings of saliva though, I'll give them that.

Like @Pullman said, it is a slow season because none of the good things are fast. In fact, I don't think there are many shows that are very fast paced/exciting this at all. It's really just Konosuba for a fast paced comedy, and even then Konosuba isn't THAT fast.

So Kuzu No Honkai and Konosuba are the main attraction of the season ?

Yep, pretty much, you could include ao no exorsist season 2, surprisingly it is not getting as many attention as I initially thought, the first season was pretty popular from my memories.

I myself dropped the second season, because it was so boring and uninteresting.

I wasn't a fan of Blue Exorcist 1st season. Mainly due to the fact after 26 episodes (was it?) , Characters haven't gotten interesting and remained dull.
Following the 2nd season now , The story doesn't give anything to look forward to , But I guess there's nothing better to follow so gonna follow it to the end.

It's mostly the sequels that are good this season with some handful New shows

Honestly, I don't know what to feel about this season anymore. On the one hand, it has Rakugo Season 2, which is the second season of one of my favorite anime. On the other hand, it had Hand Shakers, which immediately became my most hated anime ever.

The slice of life/romance fans will be the ones doing all the bitching then. Not to mention the ones that hate modern anime overall, and bitch every season about it.

Basically every anime cycle until we get to the end of the year and then they say what animes that thought were good, and the list of animes they mention are more than the good animes in the So called "Golden Age of anime" from the 90's and 2000's

Um... that's like... um... your opinion man.

We have fucking Nyanko Days, what are you on about???
Even the less watched series are pretty ok. Sure, we don't have that many action anime, but there's still lots of watchable stuff.

I also heard Cuck's WishSchool Days is good, you can watch that. (:

There's some good sequels this season. I'm really enjoying those. Plus, Youjo Senki, Kozu no Honkai, and ACCA are very good! I've narrowed down my airing list this season and I think this season could be superior to the last one.

I personally don't think this season is "slow" but then again, I'm not watching that much since I'm taking my pace with the stuff that I am watching since my internet is pretty trashy. At least it's better than Winter 2016 tbh,

This season is light on quality action intensive shows. Most main shows this season are either slower and darker like Kuzu no Honkai or 3-gatsu, or wacky like Konosuba. I really like all three of those, which is enough for one season for me.

Honestly though, this was pretty much the same as last Winter. I basically ended up watching Grimgar and nothing else the entire season. Everything else from that season (Konosuba, GATE, etc) I only watched later on. If anything, I thought Fall 2016 was really weak.

For me, as long as there is 1 really good show that resonates with me, I'm okay with only watching one show every week. I guess I must be in the minority in that regard.

Whilst there aren't that many anime that I'm keeping up with this season (only 4 actually), I'm really enjoying the ones I am watching.

Top tier-
-Gintama.
-Kuzu no Honkai

Mid tier-
-Youjo Senki
-Onihei

That's how I'd rate them anyways!

I guess it depends on what your taste is. Most of the better shows this season are slice of life/comedy, so if you are not into that stuff, then you might find this season dull.

Personally I think the previous season was better because it was much more diverse.

This season has a lot going for it: Maid Dragon, Youjo Senki, Urara, Kemono Friends, ACCA, Nyanko Days, Onihei and Konosuba S2. Maybe not the most mind blowing season, but there are many good shows overall. I'd say this season's average quality is a lot higher than usual.

So no, this is a very good season.

I thought I wouldn't get into this season with a lot of the shows being shifted towards slice of life and comedy genres and only picked up like 2 shows at first but this far into the season my 'watching' list on here just blew up with the season anime, I think my favourite would be Kuzu no Honkai especially, love the drama romance theme! (also I agree with whomever commented somewhere here, I actually find these season stronger than the last)

You should be aware that those show has a small fanbase, because it doesn't have a big audience appeal. I don't know why people keep mentioning them, like people will just start to watch and like them.

i am not mentioning this show to try to get people watching those or to recommend them but my point is that the lack of faster paced is not bothering me in the least
also 3-gatsu is not that hard to get into so i do not see how it can not appeal to a larger audience

I don't need anything else this season if I have Rakugo and 3gatsu. Having no good fast-paced shows is not a problem at all IMO.
