Also I thought the Youkai Apartment one was an adaptation of the other manga by the Maidragon dude but it isn't the case

AXZ, New Game+, apocrypha, Netsuzou, Convenience Store: The Show, and Sakura Quest at the very least. Possibly Gamers! as well.

It's gonna be rough keeping up with this season. I might do the occasional bingewatch of Sakura Quest / Convenience Store, because they don't strike me as the kind of show that you just have to keep up with on a week-to-week basis. Still, definitely a lot of stuff I'm interested in.

I shouldn't have put off watching Symphogear for so long.

This is actually a surprisingly interesting season. Along with the new Fate and Monogatari, I'm looking forward to Centaur's Worries, and Princess Principal looks like it could be good. What I'm really excited about is the OVAs for A-Channel and Cardcaptor Sakura, and a new Nanoha movie! :dance:

That's for me to know and for you to grow indifferent to, Squarkster. ;)

I find Saber boring and Nasu's huge boner for gender-swapped King Arthur perplexes me. I don't know enough about the different NOT-Saber versions across all Fate/Minutiae nonsense to make statements about them, but I'm thinking that they're all as interesting as wet blankets. Also, why does Type-Moon continues to evoke the upstanding King Arthur, instead of the superior Graham Chapman-flavored one?

you think saber is boring because you never saw the entire arc where she is actually a character who gets focus and development. she's not the best character in f/sn but she's plenty good when she actually gets to have focus, she's not as relevant as a lead in ubw and fate/zero is kind of just a parade of people making GBS threads on her

i dunno anything about the rest of fate so i can't say anything about any of the other sabers

Nero is an OK character even though she has no justification for looking so similar to Arturia or even being female. Male Arthur from Prototype is a boring Mary Sue. Jeanne and Mordred are actually interesting characters, although Jeanne is fairly similar to Arturia in terms of general personality. I haven't read enough of Strange Fake to know what Richard is like. The others are basically throwaway jokes as far as I can remember.

I kind of like Jeanne though admittedly that's mostly just because I like her design (remains to be seen for me how this changes for Apocrypha and/or Grand Order) whereas original Saber's look is kind of dull.

In a Different World with a Smartphone. (Isekai wa Smartphone to Tomo ni.)
Production Reed | Yanase, Takeyuki | ... | Light Novel | Adventure, Harem, Comedy, Romance, Fantasy | July 11, 2017
Touya Mochizuki was accidentally killed, and as an apology, God allows him to be reborn in a fantasy world and will grant him any one wish he desires. And so, Touya chooses to keep his smartphone in the next world. In his second chance at life, he befriends many important figures and comes across the world's secret. He inherits the legacy of an ancient civilization and travels around nonchalantly while possessing powers that rival this world's kings.

I've actually played/read through FSN fully. Her arc is interesting and hints at a really complex + tragic person. It's just that she, as a character (and everything that entails), still feels super dull, despite said entire arc.

Counterpart: Arturia is boring and dumb, and Nero is the only good Saber

Full disclosure: everything I know about Fate beyond the two ufotable anime comes from reading parody fan comics

I'm going to watch Kakegurui, Tsuredure, Symphogear, Ballroom Blitz, and they said they'd waive my duties in the Mighty Marvel Marching Society if I checked out the new Avengers anime so I guess that too. I'm also curious to see why the hell someone decided to remake Mahoujin Guruguru in TYOL 2017. Are remakes just easier to get funding for nowadays? When's the Akazukin Chacha remake by Dogakobo????

Because Takeuchi really likes drawing her(apparently), and it's also basically become a running joke at this point.

To wit, in terms of "is actually Arturia" we currently have:
-Arturia
-Arturia (Lily)
-Arturia Alter
-Arturia Alter (Santa)
-Arturia (Archer)
-Mysterious Heroine X - Not actually drawn by Takeuchi
-Mysterious Heroine X Alter - Not actually drawn by Takeuchi
-Arturia (Lancer) - Not actually drawn by Takeuchi
-Arturia Alter (Lancer) - Not actually drawn by Takeuchi
-Mordred - Not actually drawn by Takeuchi, technically a clone
-Mordred (Rider) - Not actually drawn by Takeuchi, technically a clone

There's also the "Has basically the same face as Arturia" (all drawn by Takeuchi) category of:
-Nero
-Okita
-Jeanne
-Jeanne Alter
-Jeanne Alter (Santa Lily)


Also a number of much lesser known characters, but none of the rest have much exposure.

I'm definitely watching New Game 2, and I'm sticking with Sakura Quest and MHA. Made in Abyss and Restaurant to Another World look interesting, other than that I'll just see what gets picked up by Crunchyroll.

Definitely interested in the new Guruguru, might give Princess Principal a shot, that Cellphone anime looks boring but maybe it'll be good?

I'm still actually bothering to watch Re:Creators for whatever reason and MHA season 2 is still going strong, so I'll have those to fall back on if nothing sticks out to me this season
