Also, Rakugo Shinjuu finished airing. You guys better get on that if well crafted drama is your thing.

Might be in the mood for a good/great romance drama anime. My tops in this category are Your Lie in April, Toradora, and Golden Time. I can greatly enjoy these shows, but some of them can drive me crazy. There's a scene from one show that I can still remember and it just crushes my soul and makes me rage even now. Have there been any good ones lately?

Kuzu no honkai will be done airing within the week, but I think that's already on your radar.

The second season of Owarimonogatari has been announced for summer 2017.

I know the success of the monogatari series means that Shaft will always make easy profit from it and thus will adapt everything, but I can't shake the feeling of feeling good.

Do you guys think there will be any sleeper hits this season?

A sleeper hit like Re:Zero? I don't have the slightest clue; there's actually a lot of sci-fi/fantasy shows this season and I'm not inclined to watch them.

A hipster hit like Rakugo or Saiki Kusuo? I'll pin my hopes on Sakura Quest. It seems to be like Shirobako in style.

Dragon Maid is great. Buncha cute, pervy stuff with pretty-eyed waifus. You got lolis, shotas, AND gigantic tits AND AND yuri fanservice.

Yea, it's got a quite a plethora of otaku pandering stuff, but it's done pretty tastefully and also delivers sentimental values about living life, which makes the show pretty outstanding.

I'm watching Shimoneta..... it's.... fun....

Shimoneta made ankle length skirts hot, if only it gained prominence in anime.

Shaft makes shows getting second seasons seem easy; 3-gatsu no lion second season confirmed for fall 2017.

It's so strange how the names of months in Japan are just "___ month." Like December is juunigatsu (twelfth month), April is shigatsu (fourth month), etc.

Well, I'll have you know, October, November, December made sense, and July and August used to be 5th and 6th month. Then, the Romans decided to assign the 50 odd "monthless" winter days after december as two months, January and Febuary. I don't know why they were at the beginning instead of the end of the year, which screws up the normal, partial number month system.

Man that Konosuba S2 finale sure was somethin. I don't quite love the show as much as most, but I do still love it. I think I just preferred S1 to S2. It's certainly not the best of the season imo. I'd probably have to give that honor to Little Witch Academia or Youjo Senki. Part of me REALLY wants to give it to Kemono Friends, as crazy as that sounds. What a sleeper hit that one is. I'd put Gabriel DropOut way up there too but I don't think it's for quite the right reasons :3

Konosuba's S2 was more or less the same as S1.

ACCA is my favorite of this season. I find myself fascinated by how it weaves its intrigue.

It's by a fat, nearly nude hairy guy disguised ala Shimoneta, with a fake japanese accent.

Could it be one of us here, I wonder?

I found a video of a guy who seriously reviews H-manga, and the novelty of it was utterly hilarious. It's by a fat, nearly nude hairy guy disguised ala Shimoneta, with a fake japanese accent; Ignore his appearance and just listen the delivery, it's pretty amazing.

And I'm not going to get myself bannered, so I'll PM the link if anyone is interested.

My hypest thing after violet evergarden

Spring 2017



Will be watching -



Attack on Titan S2 - Uh, I'm probably only watching it because of it's popularity. I didn't enjoy it that much; I don't care for the characters, and I think the pacing is atrocious at times, but the world is interesting enough.

Sakura Quest - It's P.A. Works and it's going to be like Shirobako (workplace anime about anime), except it's about tourism and small towns? I think I'm most hyped about this actually.

Alice to Zouroku - Seinen mystery show, and JC staff usually does things well enough. Also, MC is an old man, which is a rarity in anime.

Danmachi side story - Not going to lie, I think Danmachi is pretty stupid, but it's fun enough, and that's what matters I guess.

Tsuki ga Kirei - More or less, high school character drama? It's also not a adaptation of anything, which makes me hopeful that there's originality despite such a common setting/set-up. I love character development, so hopefully this one gets me.

Sakurada Reset - It's going to be 2-cour from David Production (known for doing Jojo). More time-travel mystery stuff; hopefully the characters are interesting and it's points of intrigue are too.




And These are season 2's of shows that I'm interested in that I'll dive into once it's all out. Doing so to keep myself from getting bogged down in seasonal anime.

Boku no Hero Academia S2
Saekano S2
Eccentric Family S2
Kekkai Sensen S2



I might pick up another show or two depending on their reception after a few episodes are out.

Anyone have any recommendations for the upcoming anime season? @PimpMyRhydon knows what I like.

Currently enjoying Gabriel Dropout, Maid Dragon, Monster Girls and School-Live.

I'm on mobile, and no pc til tomorrow, but I'll make a short write-up about what I'm interested in then.

I'm prejudiced against short episode shows for no real reason, but I think I'll grab these two along with the two I found earlier(Joker Game and Mahou Shoujo Ikusei Keikaku). I'll leave Galko chan alone for now, thanks for the recs.

I don't like shorts all that much either, but Galko-chan is my favorite short.

Not sure what to watch next, think I'll just make due with tiger and bunny while I search for something else.

Saiki kusuo no psi-nan - really good comedy
Girlish Number - Writer of Oregairu made this; fun, cynical, yet sentimental
Oshiete! Galko-chan - It's a charming short who's main subject is dirty/bodily humor, but goes about it cleanly/non-perverse way?

For next season, there's a bunch of sequels of shows that I'm interested in that I haven't seen. I'm going to follow the way of the dragon504, and watch the entirety of them when they're done airing. That way, I'll have a "light" season where I don't get bogged down immediately.

Anyone have a blind manga recommendation to suit this need? I wanna be a hipster and be like, "I read the manga before it got an anime adaptation". So really, anything you like, that you think would get an anime adaptation soon/eventually.

I'd also guess that the manga still needs to be running since adaptations are usually to boost sales?

So Humanity has Declined was a lot of fun. Highly recommend. Now I'm sad that there's no more, and there's no translated source material to turn to.

http://www.shallowrewards.org/podcast/toonami-turns-20/

It's a podcast with guest Jason DeMarco, one of the co-creators of Toonami. They discuss anime, toonami, and western audiences in general. It's kinda rambly at first. I found the points in the last 20 minutes of it pretty poignant.

The last two episodes of ACCA have been dropping bombs in terms of plot, which was overall slow moving. This is one of the reasons why I'm not bothered by slow plot. Feelsgoodman.

This is a clip from humanity has declined, I wonder if anyone if anyone who hasn't seen it, finds this amusing. It says alot of about it's style.

I was looking at the MAL ratings for this season's shows; Handshakers has broken below 5.0, which is quite an accomplishment on MAL. I haven't watched it, but I kinda wish I had. I've seen clips of it and it being CGI dumpster garbage is it's only "redeemable" trait. It's animation is beautiful, but terribly ugly at the same time. It at least deserves commendation for trying to be different (but failing horribly).

I want to play through final fantasy V, but I can't stop playing dungeon crawl stone soup. I got this itch from watching a twitch streamer blind play FF6, and was pretty terrible at it to the viewer's joy.

I never beat FF 5, but I played through FF 6 too many times to count.

I finished Higurashi, I'll start the second season and the extras at a later, but soon date. I wanted to watch a 1-cour show in the meanwhile, since the second season is another 25+ episodes.


That 1-cour show being Humanity Has Declined. I was surprisingly impressed by the first episode. It seems to be grounded to science-fiction/fantasy conventions, but the presentation is comedic from it's light but serious tone. I also really like the visual aesthetic.

Booted Berseria back up today. Got past where I had my unfortunate crash. Luckily it seems I didn't lose as much progress as I thought I might've, so that's good. Seem to have not lost my 230 grade from a dire foe either, which was the main thing I was worried I'd lost. Made it to the save before the final boss, but gonna grind a little bit, so I can change up the equips I'm wearing. Really wish there was a merchant in the final dugneon.

Been watching some more Kingdom. It's getting me fired up to play something with big battles like m&b warband, total war, or dyansty warriors. Though I don't have any dynasty warriors and the only total war I have is Rome.

I wonder if you've heard of Third Age, basically LotR meets Total War, by a complete rehaul of Medieval 2 total war.

I'm like 2/3rds of the way through the first season of Higurashi. It exudes a unique aura of insanity/madness/paranoia/schizophrenic, I dig it.



I've been playing dungeon crawl stone soup, which is a traditional roguelike RPG. You should look up the meaning of stone soup, and think for yourself how it applies to game development.
