Also isn't My Hero Academia supposed to be this season too?
they haven't mentioned it yet, just that it's confirmed. we're getting a jump festa special this season tho. (just 30 minutes of the class beating up on an original villain)

people said plenty, in the dedicated code geass thread. perhaps nobody is saying much in other threads because we have a dedicated thread for code geass discussion?

and also yeah, there's no air date confirmed. for all we know it could be 2018 like the new season of cardcaptor sakura.

Ao no Exorcist is pretty much standard shonen - it's got some decent fights, some great side characters, and a kind of meh protagonist. The female characters get a bit more screentime than in most shonen (probably because it's written by a woman,) but that's really the only big thing it has over any other b-level shonen.

trigger did a bad once, so they're always bad. the staff on every show from a studio is the same as every other show from that studio.

just like pa works did a good once, and is always good. now if you'll excuse me, im off to watch charlotte, which will surely be just as good as shirobako. and then after that, i think ill watch medaka box, which will be just as good as gurren lagann.

Basic bits I could grab from the article:

Takahashi is still on board as Director.
Chirico will be present, but no mention if he's the protagonist or just a character in it.
They spent like ten minutes talking about the Blood Sucker for some reason.
The staff they've brought on board are big fans of the original series, and they brought back people who worked on the original TV show where they could find people who were still working. No mention on if it'll be 2d or 3d, though.
Name is 'Battlefield Philosopher'

Natsume is in a monthly magazine, so we're probably catching up to it pretty quickly with this recent spurt. That said, the manga's still not over. so there'll probably be at least one more season after this even if it goes into the ending arc right after I make this post.

steins;gate zero is nearly as good as steins;gate

but yeah the secret to the ; series is that the writers aren't really that similar across the series. there's one guy that's in all of them but he doesn't seem to be the lead guy in any of them, and the other writers are a revolving door.

the first ep is kinda weak and has some dumb boob gags but once they introduce the kid and it just becomes a family comedy it's really soothing and sweet, and there's an episode where the main character gets a five minute speech about how xenophobia and sexism are stupid. not even coaxed in the dragon stuff. she just says 'men, women, japanese, and foreigners are all the same.'

it's not really nazi at all. the uniforms don't even match. i mean it's still european war fetishization which i can understand not digging, but people who have been calling it nazi glorification on twitter are weirdos.
