Rokka was definitely a highlight this season, though it didn't really pick up until episode 4. It's dumb as gently caress that people are rushing to disown it just because they didn't like the final five minutes of the entire series' runtime.

Working!! and Snow White were really enjoyable shows. I've always been meaning to catch up on other shows like Death Parade/Shirobako and such, but I've been too busy.

Indeed, I found the epilogue fairly hilarious. (Last episode spoiler) It was pulling the underground tablets completely out of the author's rectum That being said, I enjoyed the show fairly well in general. I loved the soundtrack, the dialogue (even as translated by CR) was pretty compelling, and it was a pretty cool mystery idea. It's just a shame that the mystery wasn't resolved in a manner that was the least bit satisfying.

It was also quite bad inbetween episode 4 and the final five minutes. Not that I've seen the last two episodes.

I enjoyed Rokka but never saw it as anything more than disposable entertainment. Adlet was an inordinately good protagonist though.

Bad Seafood posted:I enjoyed Rokka but never saw it as anything more than disposable entertainment. Yeah I agree with this. I went into it with pretty low expectations and ended up enjoying it way more than I anticipated. The end was anticlimactic but it didn't retroactively ruin everything before it for me or anything. Overall it's on the same level as Aoharu x Machinegun for me; I liked both of them, they were fun shows to watch that had some flaws but weren't stand-out shows I'll ever rewatch or make a point to recommend to others.

When you make another person's argument for them, only you cleverly make it a stupid argument, it is actually you that looks stupid. Rokka had a ton of problems, if you want to grade on a curve for its premise hey whatever.

Somehow, Classroom Crisis managed to keep up its suspense once it decided to start building it (albeit after an unncessary delay of 6 or 7 episodes) and present a very satisfying ending. Did it make me think? No. Was there anything particularly original about it? Not really. Was it particularly well-scripted or well-acted? Nope. But it competently told a story, and isn't that enough sometimes?

Yeah, CC ended up being the action/drama show I was most satisfied with this season. It was just well executed, making it stand out against at least Rokka and Charlotte, two other shows for which expectations were not particularly high. Looking forward to Classroom Crisis 2: Space Startup

Yeah, I was waiting for the "by the way, one of our members owns a third of your company" shoe to drop in CC. Guess they're saving that one for the sequel.

I think it's hilarious that they ended the series with dropping even the last faintest pretext of highschool left in the show. We quit, we work for a living now!
