Working Web: Great and more of the same if you're a fan of the first iteration.

Iron Blooded Orphans: I actually kind of feel that this ended just fine in S1 and would not have been upset if that was the end of that story, but I won't complain about there being more either (unless it sucks!).

Euphonium: Of course.

March Comes In Like a Lion: One of the best manga I've ever read and it's sort of insane to think about what a studio like Shaft could do with the property. Going to be really cool almost certainly!

That link doesn't work, and I know nothing about this show: why is it so hyped? On first glance it's just high school drama with some shogi, which doesn't sound like the next best thing like sliced bread?
It has insanely good characters and drama, touching upon a lot of very heavy topics in no small part because of the host of psychological issues the MC has.

To give a little bit more perspective on March Comes In Like a Lion, if you're thinking it sounds like a typical high school/sports drama, it's serialized in Young Animal which is the same magazine Berserk is in. That's not to say it's as dark as that certainly, but just that it goes to some pretty drat serious places with its drama.

I've heard incredible things about it but I haven't hit a mood where I want to watch band slice-of-life - but it is on the list to watch eventually! I'm hoping S2 is as good as S1 or better so when I do marathon it I'll get a double-whammy of good anime.
I wouldn't call Euphonium slice-of-life, it's a moderately serious character drama with a good amount of emotional gravitas at times.

It's so great!! Honestly flabbergasted at how good a job Shaft did with it.

So what are the good action shows this season? Maybe drifters? Anything else?
Gundam IBO remains quite decent if mecha isn't a turn off.

Why couldn't KyoAni have done Ojojojo, that's by far the best COOL manga.

Euphonium and Lion might be in my top 5 for AOTY so that's been quite awesome.

I mean, GuP owns when you set aside the recap episodes - and I haven't even gotten around to the OVA yet.
The Anzio OVA is the best episode in the show, definitely get around to watching it! And the movie.

I can only guess that the format would be the usual tournament, with each round being a film or two.

Porco Rosso is definitely underappreciated IMO.
