I've few things I care about this season and those I'm going in with low expectations. So far that's worked for me with Akiba's Trip which I'm already enjoying. I hope it'll continue working for me with Youjo Senki.

my expectations were very low, and it didn't exactly exceed them by much. I might still drop it if it starts to creep me out more than make me laugh, which is not a possibility i'm discounting

the face of the secondary character in Youjo Senki bothers the poo poo out of me because she looks like she's drawn in a completely different style from just about every other character. Tanya also has that problem but to a much lesser extent I feel since I can more or less look past it with her.

other than that i enjoyed the first episode

Gabriel Dropout is hilarious and probably the only thing I'm going to bother keeping up with this season (besides March Comes in Like a Lion and maybe LWA if i can work up the effort to set it up for viewing with my friends every week)

just caught up on acca. easily my favorite this season. it's so relaxing all the time, even when it's getting serious.

Oh are we doing this? Unlike last season I am not watching a lot. Much less caught my eye and even fewer got my interest to keep watching. Which is fine because free time is not exactly something I have a lot of.

Best
ACCA

Really good
March Comes in Like a Lion
Little Witch Academia

Good
Gabriel Dropout



Also slowly watching the second seasons of Cute High and Conrevo, both of which I'm really enjoying.

Is ACCA actually good? It's got the most generic pitch in its description and nothing about it seems to stand out at all.


Like I don't think anyone could write a less enticing description.

Why would you say it's worth checking out?

That description is more of a background exposition than actual description of what the show is.

It's very deliberately paced. I'd say that's the biggest strength. The characters are also just likable.

Honestly just watch the first episode. Either it'll click or it won't.

I'm not fully caught up on LWA, but it seems to me they made Sucy out to be much meaner in the series than in the OVAs. Which I'm not 100% happy with.

Yeah, I was all excited to see her in the show and when I did she acted less like someone who is giving some friendly teasing and more like an rear end in a top hat just loving with people and trying to get them killed.

Not too thrilled about that change.

from what i watched, the ninja was the funniest character entirely because the show made you think he was a method actor who got really into being a lovely ninja...until his super serious backstory revealing he was actually just a lovely ninja and conned into being an actor.

that was the last episode i watched before dropping it

it's a shame because it was really funny before they decided to be serious instead

There's that series where high school boys who are the personifications of different types of rice work together to make rice more popular than bread.

Also like half a dozen big titty fantasy shows for some reason.

Go on
