Natsuyuki 2 - Eh, this wasn't as good as episode 1. Or maybe I just reacted more positively to this because anime like this is kind of rare. If I read the manga, I probably wouldn't have found it as special. But yeah, the main dude is still too bland and the ghost was just kind of obnoxious this episode.
E7 AO - back to being dumb already lol
KoiChoco 2 - Didn't have anything as stupid and ridiculous as the scene in Ep 1 but otherwise, I actually liked the boring harem parts more than the boring harem parts in the first episode. Still, they're boring harem parts but for some reason, I feel compelled to continue this.

Binbougami ga! 2 - Not as funny as the first episode. The part where Sakura summoned those animals was pretty great though.
Natsuyuki Rendezvous 2 - I wasn't even a fan of the first episode, but I guess it was about the same. I think it moved through the episode better without spending half of it on self inspection or whatever.
Imouto 2 - Most of the shows still have episode 2 for me to watch, but this is already looking like it'll be the biggest improvement over episode 1.
Accel World now has had OPs and EDs by KOTOKO and Altima. show's got good taste in who they pick. this half of the season also looks to actually be... dare i say, interesting. OP seems to suggest there's a good 8 or so new characters to introduce.
of course the short fat guy will be the harem lead. can't suspend my disbelief enough for that.

Apparently a guy sing's the OP for Binbougami. I'm legitimately surprised since the singer sounds like a woman.
After looking the person up I just realized that I listened to his Vocaloid briefly once when it came up on Last.fm. Man, I seriously thought it was a woman providing a boy's voice.

Kokoro Connect 2 - Way better than episode 1. This serious part of the plot is definitely going somewhere dumb and I can't wait to see where. Got a better feel for the characters here too and there were actually jokes.
Kuroko 15 - hot

That Becky transformation was something else. The combination of CGI stiffness and... well, let's just call it like it is -- tentacle groping and staff grinding -- was downright awkward. But I'd be lying if I said I don't want to see it again. Gawking at a car crash sort of thing.
It's certainly worth rewatching. I've been hard to please recently, so this one (and Casshern Sins) are probably the two best shows I've seen in months. Contrast that with all these.
Imagine the voice actors reactions to this character profile.
"All right, this is a episodic character who obtains godly sums of money, using it to kidnap random men, in order to seduce them and chop their ***** off."
I mean, it's probably no stranger than a child molester in a pony costume, but...
"All right, this is a episodic character who obtains godly sums of money, using it to hunt down rapists the cops couldn't find, and punishing them with castration."
There's nothing particularly strange about it at all.

Well you shouldn't really feel too bad about giving up since the R+V, Negima, and Excel Saga animes are all pretty bad and butcher their respective series beyond recognition.

I mean it's not awful (I'd say like a 4/10 so far) but I dunno. It just feels so bland and has felt like a generic fantasy anime with MMO elements shoehorned in. Granted, they apparently covered an entire novel in this one episode but still. The pacing isn't really even the issue. There just doesn't seem to be anything at all to set it apart from any given shounen. It feels kinda soulless as well but that could be the adaptation.

It is the adaption.
The first episode was a decent adaption despite leaving a lot of the world-building out.
But this one cut out a lot and it really suffered for it.
It is way too high atm. I'd give it like a 7/10 (with my inflated scores) so far and I its prob my fav ln of the ones I read. It could still get better though and Im hoping it does.

good job calling it being a great LN and a bad adaptation

I see. I'm about 2 hours into it and it's pretty cool so far. I have played a bit of Ys I (a while back) and uhh. . . whichever one was for the SNES I played pretty extensively when I was younger. although since I'm not really one of those people who obsesses about having to play all the games in a series or in order it doesn't make a difference to me at all really.
