There's actually a lot of shows I'm willing to give at least one episode next season. Sekai Suru Kado, Clockwork Planet, Kabukibu, Warau Salesman NEW, maybe Granblue, Fukumenki Noise, Sakurada Reset, Tsuki Ga Kirei, Kenka Banchou Otome, Renai Boukun Re:Creators, and Oushitsu Kyoushi Hayne. Also I'm sure Natsume will be good (got a long ways to catch up on that), and I'll check at least an episode or two of the new Yugioh Series.

Also :lol: at the most generic description ever for Tsuki GA Kirei.

Second season. The first season was 2 cours.

Aoi Yuuki as Kino, replacing Ai Maeda. No mention of studio or director. The director of the original anime passed away in 2013, and A.C.G.T. hasn't made an anime of their own since 2013 (their two anime since, dai-shogun and girls cycling club, were collabs with J.C. Staff,) so those will have replacements as well.

LWA might be the only thing I'll watch in the Spring, a show I am only doing so reluctantly in the Winter.

I'm going to recommend giving Warau Salesman NEW a chance, based on the old series.

Tsugumono because you guys think it's aatrek incarnate, so I think I will take a peek. What could go wrong?
Comments and Criticisms are welcome.

Literally the guy above you posted:

The manga started ok and has great art but soon devolved into a borderline porno as the humor started to stick to the lowest fruits (tentacle jokes for one) possible and the endless parade of young women managed to form one of the biggest harems known to manga around the Gary Stu protagonist.

The artist even sells nudity variants at conventions. As if even more is needed! The unending battles are complete nonsense because of the godlike powers on the leads part, all the bisexual women and his rapist waify are only there to bathe each other endlessly or masturbate each other to sleep (also used as "punishment") or feed on each others breasts for pages, or... With endless scenes like that all attempts at drama or romance become a joke and the fact the half the women (even some male characters changed genders to female) are "adult loli" with barely censored vaginas or completely uncensored anuses (gotta love japanese censorship double standards) which are spread open, stimulated and at display in most chapters the manga canīt be recommenced anymore.

There is also the selfcest (?!?), the borderline rape, the "watersports" and a (shota) dick or two also show up so what did i say about the low hanging fruits again? The series is neither hateful or vile but reading porn makes way more sense after a few volumes. You will barely notice the difference and the market is flooded with doujinshi for obvious reasons.

I'd just go ahead and make a new thread. New threads get more eyes than old ones, and it's the perfect opportunity for a fresh start. I'd link the old thread on the OP foe posterity's sake, though.

last season seemed pretty weak to me, but this upcoming season looks p tight

You should watch both seasons of Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu if you enjoy really compelling character drama with incredible focus on characters mannerisms and speech, all accompanied by a story that's a lovesong for the traditional Japanese art of Rakugo.
It was my favorite show last year, and the second season has been excellent too!

what's this

The show is based on Granblue, a very popular mobage game. Djeeta is the Female Player Character, so I'm guessing they went with Gran, the Male Player Character, as the protagonist.

You can actually freely swap between being a boy and a girl on the main menu. It's good, and there's tons of gag comics based on this fact.

Watch the original '97 series to find out. Seriously, that original series was one of the best things ever put to screen. That's part of why there's so much hate for this relatively incompetent and creatively bankrupt adaptation.

The manga I actually haven't read much of, but it's got really incredible art and a fairly unique setting and tone.

You should fix that. The 97 anime honestly hasn't aged very well, and skips quite a bit of Manga content. As you've said, the Manga is a visual feast, especially as it goes on.

I knew I was going to get poo poo on for this, but no, I did not imply deconstruction as it would mean it's actively engaging what anime is. While I can appreciate anime with tropes and cliches included, Episode 0 had a refreshing lack of stereotypical anime poo poo in it and Episode 1 had a total mood whiplash. I know live action is a choice, but I can appreciate a show that considers animation just a delivery method, not a stylistic choice, especially as it can be used to deliver stories on a budget that would be extremely campy or limited otherwise.

The words you are looking for are "unconventional," "non-typical".

the show is basically another thing in the vein of Queen's Blade and like, Valkyrie Drive, basically porn but with an elaborate anime action plot

those shows never make for good posts

(sadly it also doesn't seem to have the best production value? VD had a weirdly high budget for what it was but this thing looks cheaply made, and it isn't really fun and flashy enough to make up for it yet, pretty likely to give this one up if it just ends up being boring)

VD was probably high budget because it was a multimedia project, including the Vita Videogame and a Mobage card game thing, which were all developed concurrently.
