LWA is pretty but dull. Plus it was a hot potato with sub groups for whatever reason, and after the second group I was getting it from up and quit updating I decided it wasn't worth following up on.

I stopped with Scum's Wish after the first episode, as it looked like it was going to become a miserable slog if I buckled down to watch it. I can watch stuff even if it's slow, or dry, or trashy, or ugly, etc.; but depressing stuff is OUT. I can't understand how I survived Evangelion other than I didn't know any better at the time I got into it. In short: I have higher-grade crap to waste my time on.

I've got Dragon Dentist on my queue, but I've been holding it off until I have a whole evening to watch both episodes. It looks like a nice event show to kill a night with.

DB Super (ongoing) - after a strong start to season 5 it reeeeally drug for a while, but they're about to get the team together for a universe-saving tourney. I'm always down to watch fights where people with far higher powet levels than Master Roshi get beaten up by him using the powet of perversion.
"They are about to"? Boy they have been going on with this tournament for a while already.


Since I have japanese cable I ve watched a couple of eps of Rinne (Rumiko Takahashi's new Inuyasha/Ranma/etc). Why cant she make different characters? Why has she been recycling the same lead, the same love interest, the same everything for the fast few decades? Obviously they make her money so she wants to stick with it after all this time, but its boring. And I bet the two main characters will never kiss either.

Reading what you posted, I think I'd totally watch some Rumiko Takahashi-made hentai anime.  Don't expect to ever get any but it would make all of her stock characters and the recycled situations she puts them in all the more entertaining, methinks.

LWA is pretty but dull. Plus it was a hot potato with sub groups for whatever reason, and after the second group I was getting it from up and quit updating I decided it wasn't worth following up on.

It bums me out to say it but, yeah, it's pretty dull.  I'm struggling to think how they could've fixed it plot-wise.  The Chariot thing should definitely not have been dragged out like this.  The most interesting parts so far have been Akko trying to fly, Akko's encounters with Andrew, and the Samhain festival.  This was supposed to be the comfy show with the adorably cute witches, dammit.

For me, it wasn't so much that is was depressing.  It was more boring than depressing and I think I could've stuck with this one if the main character and her bummer feels had been placed in a different situation.  But combined with clueless cuck-sensei, smug whore-sensei, emo lesbo-chan, and apathetic manslut-kun, it just had too many don'ts in it.  I didn't feel like being bored AND annoyed.  Pity because I think I rather liked the art and general look of the show.

Saw most of Rakshasa Street and am just really confused.  It actually wasn't terrible and I liked some of the characters.  The budget shortcuts show with some jarring CG.  The King's Avatar also has some jarring CG but Rakshasa Street actually does some of the fighting action with the CG so it makes the movements look sloppier.  It gets an A for effort at least and the story is at least trying something.

Ok, so I was watching Rakshasa Street in the wrong order.  The uploader attempted to make it chronological but the viewer is supposed to take in each part with one piece in the present, the other in the past, and so on like that.  It makes much more sense now.

Have been watching a bunch of old anime.  Saw Anne of Green Gables, which is wonderful.  Unlike a bunch of other women my age, I am 100% unfamiliar with Anne of Green Gables outside of the name and that it has a ginger in it.  Also saw Daddy Long Legs, which is decent.  It has some personality in it, which is really good and makes the show generally lively, but the "love story" is creepy and will never not be creepy outside of doing an adaptation where "Daddy" (cringe) is a much younger man.

Ive seen Ranma hentai and Inuyasha hentai. And yes, that includes boy-Ranma doing girl-Ranma.

I would ask how that was possible, but...hentai! No logic required. It's not like we're not dealing with a hydrogenic gender-swapper with a dad transformed into a panda.

No, not with any of those characters.  "Hentai" probably wasn't the right word for me to use.  Like a fresh, new Rumiko Takahashi show where the storylines are goofy and the characters are similar to every other character she's already written but the characters have a lot of on-screen sex with one another.  Something really perverted but still funny, light-hearted, and stupid.  She could probably come up with something really entertaining but I'm sure there's no way she'd tarnish her brand like that.

Never! Come on girl, she never even let Ranma kiss Akane on the manga, not even in the anime! Same went with Inuyasha but I think enough fans complained that they got a couple of kisses in here and there (one in the movie and one at the end).  Rumiko aims to give her fans blue balls forever.

I guess that crap new Berserk picked back up again and I didn't even know about it. Suppose I'll force myself to watch some more of it.

Ugh.

Apparently some shit just went down in Little Witch Academia so despite dropping it, I checked out a stream of the most recent episode to see what happened.  Pity the shake-up comes at the very end of the damn series.

Saw two eps of Fate/Apocrypha.  I <3 Mordred.  I love the armor, the attitude, and she has a cool master, too.  And Semiramis a cute.  But everyone else so far is pretty meh and yech.

New Japanese anime called "Henkei Shoujo" or "Transforming Girls". Like Transformers but with girls....and bras and panties. Just take a look (videos included)

This will almost certainly go on to become Hayao Miyazaki's new favorite.

Is it just me, or is the summer season complete shit? I'm following Re-Creators (great show), DBS (FINALLY started the big tournament), Rage of Bahamut (haven't started watching yet), and New Game season 2 (season 1 was cute). The only new show I'm watching is Isekai Shokudou, i.e., Restaurant to Another World, and it seems to be a relaxation watch so far.

I picked the trashy Hajimete no Gal because I like trashy anime. So far, that's the only thing its got going for it, so for people with taste that's not a plus.

I also started pulling Gamers! just because. A casual games nerd is approached by the most popular girl in the school to join the gaming club she just started. Apparently she started the club and invited him primarily because she secretly likes him, but the ambivalent nerd turns down membership because the group is too competitive. This sends the girl in a tailspin, and it sets him on the road to finding like-minded gamers to be friends with. It may wind up a cliche, but again it's been funny.

Also, I'm going to try Kakegurui, which is supposedly about a high school of gamblers. Which is really weird but sounds entertaining.

This show is freaky as hell. The second episode had a 20 million yen bet, and when the main character lost her opponent let her go double or nothing, borrowed against the chick's fingernails. Because the one doing the loaning had a thing for getting the fingernails of those she defeated in gambling. Ugh. Of course, the MC won, but still...ugh. I'm still watching, but I can only assume it only gets more cringe-worthy from here.

Yeah, when you said school gambling, I was thinking lighthearted, but a quick Google makes it look pretty morbid.

The next two episodes weren't as cringey but I don't like wanton cruelty. The world has enough of that shit already. But I liked how the episodes developed, and it looks like ep 5 (which I just got done pulling down) may have a nice payoff. We'll see...I just hope it's not something for the creators to go, "psych, we're going full retard!" Because I'll drop it immediately and not look back.

Fate Apocrypha's pretty frickin' boring but I guess I shouldn't be too shocked. Hopefully the fall lineup saves me.

Yup, there was a payoff, so I guess I'm still watching the uncomfortable high school gambling addiction anime.

Kinda bummed I don't have more anime to watch.  Since Fate/Apocrypha was the only thing I was watching this season, I haven't gotten to dropping it so I'm still watching it.  The more I see of it, the more I'm bummed that it's spends so much time on the shitty characters and doesn't let us spend more time with the cool ones.  Really like Achilles.  Keep thinking he's a Lancer though and not a Rider.

Watched a movie called Blame. It was pretty run of the mill as far as anime goes.
