I've finished most things that have actually finished. There are a couple of shows I plan on marathoning in the next couple of days before most of the shows for summer start to air. Going over them in airing order. If it's not on the list I didn't bother to pick it up. If a show is still airing I've seen at least 11 episodes of it.

YU-NO (Dropped Episode 3)
-The premise/plot of this has a good backbone to make an interesting show. But the characters are as bland as hell. Every single female is just massively in it for the protagonist's dick, or just sees him as someone who is extremely important. It's not even a harem though, like, in reality he's just chummy with everyone for no good reason. Iirc, (because I have not watched this in like 2 months) the show is also pretty lacking in the music department as for as the Inserts go, like enough where I have a mental note about it. The animation is also, pretty lacking.

Million Arthur S2 (and S1) 5/10 and 6/10
-Let's be clear, I don't think these are good shows in terms of their technical quality and their scores are pretty much purely for their charm. Think of something like Last Period (only not as good as it doesn't have fun frienemies like Wiseman). The first season is slightly better because the second one gets kind of too serious for its own good. But each episode or two usually introduces a different enemy with some ridiculous power that's pretty funny. The cast is one dimensional, but the entertaining kind.

Fruits Basket
-I don't have much to say about this right now. It's a very good show without any real glaring flaws, but I don't think it's really done anything exceptional to set it apart from other good shows. Like it lacks real memorable moments that can make a show like this exceptional.

Hitori Bocchi's Lifestyle (8/10)
-This show was great. I really enjoyed Hitori Bocchi's adventures in trying to get over her shyness to make friends. I thought that they managed to sprinkle in a few more tense moments with some foreshadowing without making it feel out of place in a rather light-hearted show. I also really like the designs of the cast, it's very moe but it's still artistically distinct. The cast is very fun too, each of them have an eccentricity that brings out a lot of the humor in the show. I like the ninja girl.

Mix (Dropped Episode 2)
-Oh, a sports anime. Really, if a sports show doesn't catch my attention on episode 1 I'll probably drop it.

Kimetsu no Yaiba
-So, this is obviously a very good show right now. Great animation with a good mix of comedy and action elements tossed in. I don't think everything it does hits the mark perfectly, but I don't have a lot of big complaints.

Gunjou no Magmell (Dropped episode 6)
-I was somewhat fine with this being like a bunch of one-offs where there is a problem and then a lesson at the end of the episode. But most of the show feels pretty dull and it's like they want to push some sort of story forward, but choose not to to expand this anime to a whopping... 13 episodes.

Kono Oto Tomare!
-This should be a show I really like, but there is something about it that seems just very... unauthentic for a lack of a better word. I think pacing is a bit of a mess, some issues are solved in like an episode or two, while they try to have huge long build ups in other places. I could somewhat understand this if the show was not getting a second season later. As far as the characters go, I actually like them. Houzuki is by far the best one as far as her characterization goes, but they all have distinct reactions to different situations. That is except whenever they hear a good koto performance where they suddenly become the same person, and this happens A LOT. So the actual koto parts a pretty much huge time fillers.
