Just a note for the folks who posted in this thead about how there was nothing good this season, way before anything aired: in the OP right now there's ten full length shows :siren:ed, two shorts :siren:ed, and that doesn't include the cool shows continuing from last season. I know this is all a matter of opinion but come on, y'all always forget that anime is good.

The only thing I'm interested in Is ERASED still. Haven't seen it yet though

ERASED and Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu are the shows I'm really hyped for, good stuff.

i wonder if Rakugo is gonna keep having double episodes though. it was kinda funny, i was watching it late amd started to get drowsy at the same time Yota was falling asleep during the Master's performance

Given it has a weekly schedule, I'm guessing that's just a first-episode thing, like with the Ufotable Fate shows. I'd be happy to be wrong, though, if they can keep up the quality with such a punishing schedule.

TV guides show it as being a 1h special for the opener, then regular 24m episodes the rest of the series (at least 12 eps).

AnimeLab's added a few more simulcasts;

BBK/BRNK, which was kinda interesting, but needs a three-episode test because the first one seemed to be dumping a whole lot of things on the viewer at once. CGI animation was pretty good too.

Dimension W, which I really enjoyed but does indeed need a better budget. The big dimensional gateway thing at the end was pretty drat cool though.

Grimgar; Ashes and Illusions.

updated the op. thanks.

i figured it might just be a special deal like other double premieres, but with stuff like Katanagatari out there you never know.

after the first book the series was dedicated to their war on slavery and the development of guns. they just flat out refused to do any more epic adventures because some dickhole wizard told them to.

Mahou Shoujo Nante Mou Ii Desukara - its a magical girl show but her uniform is a swimsuit XD XD XD no.

Ao no Kanata no Four Rhythm - im sure the guy who really loves this vn is pleased with the adaptation. i thought it was kinda ok. shockingly little fanservice considering its a vn with the premise of girls in short skirts flying through the air besides when the mc walked into a girl changing, who oddly enough did not appear in the rest of the episode. all the harem personality types are there, cat like girl, ditzy girl, lesbian gamergirl, hot teacher, the rival character is a classic ojousama (no drills but she does the laugh). not entirely sure on who the mc actually is tho? the pink haired girl seems way more important to what happens and she has several scenes where she's the only viewpoint (plus she's the only one who does the sport), while all the dude has is a single disconnected from the show fanservice scene. it uses a lot of chibis. the ojousama made me laugh once

Nah, I don't think pleased is the right word. I'd say I was OK with it but I had some complaints that I kind of saw coming to begin with. VN adaptations are really hard to pull off in general so I'm not particularly surprised.

I wrote more poo poo in the thread if anyone cares to read it. Also, the VN translation has made some significant strides toward completion so there's that for me to be happy about!

That was actually the show I'd planned to make a thread for but ended up getting all excited for Rakugo instead so just wanted to say while I had sort of mentioned doing it somewhere at one point I'm not planning to anymore.

Nothing to be :( about, it mostly had first-episode-itis (i.e. trying to cram a bunch of setup in at once) so I feel like they could still improve from here. I just feel like the anime doesn't give the characters enough credit and kind of hams them up unnecessarily.
