I'm definitely on board for
Umaru
Blood Blockade Battlefront
Osake wa Fuufu ni Natte kara


I'll try
Girl's Last Tour
Kino's Journey


Beyond that, it seems like a good season to watch some older anime I never got around to watching, like
Xabungle

calling anything to do with little sisters a "modern day Pygmalion" and a girl that wants to gently caress a "faithful virgin bitch" sucks so fuckin much

In Japanese the English word "bitch" basically means slut, right?

this is lame too!!! your girlfriend isn't too much to handle, she just wants sex ya dingus

I read a bit of the manga, and in the beginning at least it's not that she wants sex. It's just that because of porn and society she thinks her boyfriend is automatically going to want all kinds of crazy sex

It seems like your opinion on the anime original stuff is dependent on whether or not you read the manga. People who only watched the anime had no problem with it, people who read the manga didn't like it.

I didn't hate the anime original stuff in the first season. but if the new season keeps to the episodic nature of the manga, I think I would like that better

The first episode of Garo was alright. I kinda feel bad for it, an urban fantasy action series airing the same time as BBB. But the characters and plot hook were really generic, so I think that's gonna be an anime I only watch more of if people start saying it's gets really good as it goes.

vanishing line: the hero is a pretty standard japanese parody of american action heroes. the problem is, i can't figure out if it is actually supposed to be a parody or if we are meant to take the giant muscle man who loves big titty blondes and rare steaks bigger than his head at face value. but hey, the rad chains from honoo no kokuin made a very brief appearance.

It opened with a monster made of titties and the ED shows that the primary adult female character yet to be introduced just wear lingerie as clothes. I think the show is what it is.

You'll probably want to check out Yurucamp for the winter season then. It's basically Yama no Susume but more restrained, more about just experiencing the outdoors.


Isn't that when the next season of Encouragement of Climb is coming out too? There's gonna be two girls' mountain climbing anime running at the same time.

Actually, come to think of it, which recent-ish shows have gone completely, hideously sideways after a not-terrible start? I know a lot of goons got mad about Kuma Miko, for one, and Virgin Soul did have the all-consuming Sexy Anime Hitler romance arc.

looks like Garo still has another week before it wraps up introducing the full cast, but eps 2 and 3 were much stronger than the first and seem to have almost entirely done away with the shakycam and significantly lessened the cg. definitely worth a shot if you're into hyperviolent OVAs from the 80's.

This most recent episode was the most standard heist episode ever made.

Do any of the previous Garo series do interesting things or is it all as generic as this?

I'd previously seen a couple episodes of Fumoffu several years ago, so I decided to watch the first episode of the actual main series.

II'd forgotten the focus on Kana being a nerd; I guess her tsundere-ness had overshadowed it in my memory, or maybe it just didn't come up in the episodes I watched.

Kurz's pervert shtick is really annoying; hopefully he'll get sidelined soon. Sosuke is funny, though.

The idea that an actual elite military guy would read Soldier of Fortune made me raise an eyebrow; I was under the impression that magazines like that were aimed at...well, at the type of fantasist the other students assumed Sosuke was. Sometimes I think the lack of actual wars in Japan gives people weird ideas about modern wars...but on the other hand, there's a lot of people with weird ideas about modern wars in the US too (that's why publications like Soldier of Fortune exist). Yes, I realize it's a throwaway line I shouldn't be over-analyzing.

Sidelining Kurtz was the best decision Fumoffu made

If this could be reciprocal, I'd like to see a popular japanese anime character transported to gotham city.

Batman gets captured in Arkham Asylum and the only people who can save him from that den of madmen are the students of Totsuki Culinary Academy. They have to prepare meals to satisfy the unique tastes of each of the villains.

If not for Land of the Lustrous every single show I chose would have been a cute girls doing cool things show, and honestly that's getting off on the slimmest of technicalities.

Apparently the idiot who likes moe is me.

In no particular order: symphogear AZX, Lustrous, Konosuba, Princess Prinicipal, LWA.

I'm not sure Symphogear really counts, didn't Chris spend the season coming to terms with the murder of her parents and also shooting that kid's leg off?
