StrixNebulosa posted:Even Chaos;Child? (Please say yes, I want to watch this when it's done.) It's decent so far. It definitely manages to keep the tone chaos;head had of being generally unsettling, and it definitely has some tense moments, but the plot is executed a little awkwardly so far.

I'm only still watching Maid Dragon of the brand new shows. Continuing KonoSuba, IBO and March Comes In. Gabriel, Demi-chan, and Kemono are still in my queue but who knows if I'll ever start them up again.

But really the additional Yuyushiki was good. Nothing groundbreaking maybe, though I liked the background trio of girls getting some additional attention. However one part that really surprised me was Yui near the end remarking to herself, how Yuzuko despite her silly behavior actually is both intelligent and diligent. It was never something I particularly noticed, but I suppose it's been true all along, and it's a nice departure from the usual character tropes. I hope someone subs it soon so I can watch it again and get more of the puns.

I watched like 50-60 episodes of Gintama some years ago and the one thing that stood out to me was how inconsistent it is Like you'll have dozens of episodes in a row where nothing funny happens or at least nothing to raise more than a smirk and then every once in a while they just knock it out of the loving park for 20 minutes at a time without a single miss

I guess we're past the halfway point, so here's my take so far. Best of the season, instant classics: - March Comes in like a Lion - Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju part 2 Good and worth watching: - Little Witch Academia - Maid Dragon I can't stop watching this silly cute thing: - Kemono Friends If I get the time, I still want to check out ACCA and Saga of Tanya the Evil.

Sure I'll do a recap: AOTS Contender: -Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid- Kyoani has by and large smashed my modest expectations for this adaptation, demonstrating an incredible mastery of tonal shifts between sweet family moments and absurdist SOL gags and dramatically improving on the original manga's artwork while still being instantly recognizable. Fun, absolutely worth a look: -Little Witch Academia - Fun, funny, very well animated, but after all the excitement I saw leading up to it, I'm a touch disappointed that I don't have more substantial compliments for it just yet. Still plenty of time, though. -Dragon Ball Super (if it counts?) - It's Dragon Ball. It's doing Dragon Ball things - which is to say it's a drat riot. A little on the ugly side and a bit slow at times, but still. Modern day dragon ball. -Gabriel Dropout - Fun, funny, pretty well animated. Not as deceptively strong as the last Dogakobo show I watched, but a highly entertaining and well executed comedy regardless. Hail Satan. Pleasant, if a little underwhelming: -BanG Dream - Sort of a K-On! does Love Live! situation. Certainly not as strong as K-On, but decidedly pleasant nonetheless. I like the writer a lot and the latest episode did a lot to make the cast more distinct to me, so I'm hopeful that this could sneak a little higher up the list. -Kemono Friends - Ugly rear end animation, but deceptively charming and quirky SOL bits and weirdly compelling, subtle worldbuilding. Dropped out of boredom: -Urara Meirochou - It's kinda cute I guess but I wasn't really getting much out of it that GabDro or Bang Dream weren't doing better. Things I'm watching and enjoying out of season: -Katanagatari (would be in AOTS contender tier if released this season) - The writing is memorable and deceptively intelligent, the art style is distinct and appealing, the soundtrack is a real gem, and the overall production does a great job of balancing intense action, weird comedy, and genuine tragedy. Outside of a few overly-talky segments, Katanagatari has made very few missteps so far. -Symphogear GX (would be in the Fun tier if released this season) - The pacing is all sorts of weird and has me pretty convinced that this won't be a favorite of mine like G was, but it's still recognizably Symphogear. The music's great, it's as well animated as any Symphogear stuff to date, the action is balls-to-the-wall, and even if I'm not totally sold on where they're taking the protagonists yet it still has a tremendously likable and charismatic set of leads.

Truga posted:The bad parts of gintama are still pretty decent, they're just not as amazing. Ya I agree and like other posters said it keeps getting better which is why its so beloved. I haven't watched since like episode 230 or something but I loved almost all of it and plan on watching it later.

even otherwise tepid episodes of gintama sometimes have one or two amazing jokes. for example, gin's centaur costume absolutely cracks me up for some reason but it first appeared in an episode riddled with otsu, who is never funny at all.

If this is the thing we're doing ~Best of the season~ Ai Mai Mi Surgical Friends - Hilarious. Interview With Monster Girls - Really sweet and cute and funny. Just super well done characters who develop and have great dialogue with each other. ~Very good of the season~ Ms. Kobayashi's Dragon Maid - pretty much the same as the other Monster Girl anime this season. Great blend of characters and humor. It still has some not great bits of the source material clinging to it, but maybe those are just exaggerated by everyone talking about how gross the manga is. Saga of Tanya the Evil - A great, unique main character, an incredibly well built world, great action, great faces. ~Good of the season~ Minami Kamakura High School Girls Cycling Club - Informative and realistic. Nobody is some bicycling genius, they just enjoy riding bikes and learning about bikes. The characters are a little stock, but they work ~OK of the season~ Yowamushi Pedal - I still like Yowapeda, but they're spending way too long on saying goodbye to third years. 8 episodes in and I think maybe they finally finished saying goodbye. If the next episode is still about how sad everyone is that they're leaving and how much the third years influenced their kohais, I'm gonna lose my poo poo. This season it also feels like they're kinda reaching to come up with new bicycling super powers.

I can't watch any anime for a few weeks so hopefully these don't fall apart but my list: Best: Tanya the Evil: phenomenal main character with great scene chewing delivery, solid world building, consistently hilarious. Wish i could marathon this Good poo poo: Konosuba 2: less surprises than first season but they're able to keep running jokes consistently funny Scum's Wish: bad choices, emotional manipulation, at least one outright sociopath. One of the few times a "romance" has been watchable for me but the show can be emotionally draining in a good way. Impressive production values Little witch academia: beautiful animation, great gags, sucy Probably check out when season over: Maid dragon: watched 2 episodes and i have no idea what people see in this but everyone loves it so I'll probably give It another chance ACCA: has potential, if people say it sticks the landing I'll watch it Gabriel dropout: might be funny idk March Comes in like a lion: watched a few, feel like i should be liking more than i did. Might give it a second chance No: kemono friends, hand shakers

Correct me if I'm wrong all, but I haven't seen demographics of Tanya, scum's wish, and Maid Dragon overlapping very much.

Tanya's surprisingly good for yet another isekai, and I'm enjoying it, but it's no Maid Dragon. ACCA's still the best of the season, though.
