It hinges on if you like "the twist", or not. I personally don't care for it, but even if I did like it, I don't think it would really be deserving of much more praise than say Asterisk War. Now, with that said, I don't think it's a bad show, just middling.

Fair enough.

And by that I meant 'this show's specific quirk/plot point that makes it stand out among the genre'.

it's All You Need is Kill by way of Danmachi. i will probably keep up with it but it's solidly average and the exact sort of show you could find any given year.

Three new Yowamushi Pedal movies are up on Crunchyroll. Two are recaps (Re ROAD and Re RIDE) and the third is the one that came out in August (I assume it's out on BD now or very soon)

It's tough to describe, every 30 seconds some new stupid thing (Like the steam-powered bow and arrow) or action popped up to annoy me. I had been positive on the first three episodes, though.

EDIT: Speaking of stupid people doing stupid things with stupid powers, and even though it ruins my last point, I'm still really liking Big Order. Good background music, funny characters with absurd problems, and the scale is huge.

I mean, for crying out loud, they just Shot a pair of nuclear missiles at the protagonist. Where can they go from here?

I've added a new character to my dream cross over: The Shirobako staff hosting a corporate party at the Working!! restaurant where the Drinking Girls, Wakakozake and Osomatsu boys all crash the party, but now the twist is that the Tonkatsu DJ is providing the music

At home, reading all the manga/watching all the anime and then willing the crossover into reality, of course.
