actually the premise of Girls Und Panzer

That's not true. The tank battles were because tank battles are an excellent way to teach womanly virtues to girls, and the schools were on boats because children learn better when schools are on boats

A bunch of people get stuck in an MMO, but the show is about the game's developers. They need to release a new update, but they don't know what will happen to the people trapped in the game during maintenance. They want to tweak the balance but they're worried that if they nerf a popular build, people might die

Ugh. They could at least base the narrative around being able to Google everything or something.

There's an American Isekai where the fact that the main characters brought a high school chemistry text book with them becomes incredibly important

I could just tell I was going to be pissed last week. It was such a good moment and of course they just shat all over it. This ep felt like it tried as hard as possible to make the bullahit right, but nah gently caress it.

Also I'm still just as confused as I ever was why any of the stage results matter.

Stage results matter in real life too. winning a stage in a big race like the Tour de France is a big deal. Stages let people other than the overall winner get victories and be noticed. And they change the nature of the race, as they create more goals than just get to the end the fastest

Think of stages like individual games, and the whole race as a season. Imagine if nobody cared about the outcome of individual football games, the only thing that mattered was who won the Superbowl

Usually one that tries to do a lot of things.

But the anime I've heard most often described as trainwrecks are Code Geass and Symphogear

Symphogear is rad. Symphogear Season 2 was just as much (if not more so) radder. S3 was when things were not as rad (still plenty fun, though). I have high hopes for S4.

Wasn't season 3 the one with "do these look like swords to you?"

I wouldn't call Code Geass a "fun mess" I'd call it a fun good anime. It kinda stumbles a bit at the beginning of the second season, but that doesn't make it bad or a mess. I don't even think Code Geass has "defenders" I think it has fans

Yeah, it is a lot easier to make a good 2 minute trailer when the show is already complete than to make a 30 second teaser early in production. That's not really demonstrated by the trailer you posted, which was bad, but it's still true

F is a solid, sturdy letter. Many good words begin with it, such as Fruit, gently caress, Fan, Filling, and Fire. In anime terms, it has given us Fullmetal Alchemist, the fire emblem anime, Free!, Full Metal Panic, Fruits Basket, and of course, the Fate series. Based on this pedigree, I am giving FLCL 2 a solid 8.17/10

I can't really argue with that

Man, really? I was hoping to get my "Shorter Episode Length" anime fix with it and Tsurezure Children.

The main guys is just really unnecessarily cruel to the girl, and the girl's isn't destructive enough to warrant it, or funny or creative enough to carry the show.

Maybe it's like Maidragon or Umaru where the first episode is kinda weak but once the characters are all introduced and can bounce off each other it gets good, but I don't think I'm gonna find out

I think Aoyama-kun could be really fun if it's more of a sports show and less of a gimmick show and just uses the character quirks for quick jokes and not the entire substance of the show which it kinda looks like it's doing but hard to say after just 1 ep.

Yeah.

But the only thing I really care about is if that girl gets to support Aoyama

I no longer care about Aoyama, Dive is much better. Also it's very gay. Like, not in the way that all sports anime are a little gay because they're about sweaty muscular men having passionate relationship with each other, the main character of Dive is genuinely gay.
