I'm definitely gonna give these shows a try

Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid
Minami Kamakura High School Girls Cycling Club
Yowamushi Pedal: New Generation
Sentai Heroes SUKIYAKI FORCE


and maybe these if I hear good things

Saga of Tanya the Evil
Piacevole! My Italian Cooking


Pretty light, which is good because it'll give me a chance to catch up on stuff I didn't have time to watch last season.

I hope the anime trims the story down a lot. I tried to read the manga but it got really repetitive.
1: Oh no, Masamune messed up a chance to make the girl love him! but with the maid's help, he fixes it.
2: Oh no is Masamune actually falling for the girl?
3: A different girl is into Masamune, but Masamune turns her down because he only wants revenge
4: repeat

What is the manga actually about? Is the focus on the plot, or the main character's journey, or just violence, or her relationship with other characters?

I can see it taking on elements of MonMusu's cheerful, off-the-wall romcom style (minus a few metric tonnes of raunch) if they decide to make a romance subplot between the two teachers a thing. Which I would not object to.

Monster Musume without the raunch? I wonder what that would look like...

Coincidentally, I started stuff this season late because I wanted to finish Symphogear season 1 first. So here are some belated opinions

Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Underwhelming. I'm not sure why, but nothing in it really clicked for me. I'm probably gonna give it a pass and marathon it later if people say it improves
Minami Kamakura High School Girls Cycling Club: Promising first episode, this is shaping up to be in my top five bicycle anime of all time
Urara Meirochou: pure sugar mixed with an unexpected amount of child belly fetishism. No thank you.
Ai-Mai-Mi Surgical Friends: Funny. just as good as the last season
Symphogear: Fantastic.

i liked the first ep of the kamakura one, but i'm not going to bet against yowapeda

The first episode of yowapeda was a little weak because they had to show Makishima leaving for people who hadn't seen the movie, but they'd already covered it in the movie so they rushed through it really quick.

I think doing the first two Tanya episodes in the order they did was the right choice. The second episode is so weird, having the first episode to establish a sort of baseline for the show is a good idea. If the second episode was the first episode, I would have had no idea what to expect from the second episode.

At the second episode mark, I'm gonna say that Yowapeda has pulled ahead of Kamakura in the race to be Winter 2017's best bicycling anime.

4. The goal is to cut costs. Moldovan computer guys are cheaper than Bay Area guys. That would be the logic. Whether this works out, who knows. From the sounds of it CR is very worried about Amazon and Netflix coming in, so these moves make sense in principle in terms of ensuring they continue to be competition. Sack the replaceable tech dudes, keep the anime experts.

I bet they feel dumb for worrying about Amazon getting into the anime business, now that Amazon has actually announced their terrible anime plan.

Eh. Demi-chan keeps sticking these little harem elements in its story of a guy being a surrogate dad to three adorable monster-girl daughters, and it comes across as way more unsettling than an actual, straight-up harem romcom would. Pick a genre and stick with it, guys, because the two just don't mesh.

He's not a surrogate dad, he's a teacher.
