Currently Airing Anime

I need to cut out some shows and Kamisama Dolls and Blood-C are on the chopping block.

Dantalian 1 -
Pretty average fare. Totally creepy/awesome ED.

Mayo Chiki 2 -
I am... ashamed of myself for enjoying this. Already on to the swimsuit episode next.

Archives of Dantalion - Shitty imo

Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi 01: [Derp]'s 720p is the equivalent of a 480p stream upscale lol. So many artefacts. Sound quality is bad in some scenes, where they try to imitate acoustics in a stairwell or some stupid pomegranate like that. Bad attempts. Locked Himea scene was retarded. Recovery scenes were retarded. hurrdurr heal wounds blood on clothes disappears. Don't know what to think. Story will probably play out to be retarded. Animation quality doesn't look like it will pan out to be very good for future episodes.

R-15 01: Show is 50% light beams. i.e. pomegranate. God damn some station better broadcast uncensored, otherwise there's no meaning. Potential for great fap material in the future though.

rofl, I thought you were joking at first... then I read the description for R-15. Rofl indeed.

I won't be watching it, but I wasn't appalled by it. Wish it was original fare from Gainax.

this season is pretty disappointing so far.

I started rewatching Fooly Cooly cause there's no good new anime to watch lol

This season is high volume for me. Won't be continuing Dantalian, Blood-C, Kamisama Dolls or Sacred Seven.
But that still leaves Penguindrum, No. 6, Usagi Drop and... *sigh* Mayo Chiki. As well as Ao no Exorcist and Hanasaku Iroha continuing.

Nichijou 16 - still the best comedy in years. I haven't laughed this hard at a show since...Pani Poni? Parts of Gintama too, I guess.

Just finished the first season of Natsume Yuujinchou, really good so far. Setting myself up to get to the 3rd season maybe before it's over.

Mayo Chiki 1-2: This show is awesome, playing around with gender makes it hilarious. Definitely keeping this one.

When I saw this, I had to go and see the show for myself and....

I think I might be hooked now! xD

Mayo Chiki 1-2- I dont want to like this but I do :< LOL. The gender thing always makes for interesting situations.

Hanasaku Iroha Ep 16- Nothing too serious happened this episode. Poor Enishi, seems like he has confidence issues. Next episode preview was lulz.

I wish more people were watching Idolm@ster here ;_;

Idolm@ster 2:
A cute episodic. I appreciate how it's more than a cute girls doing cute things because of how the episode was about character and how it had a particular theme to it.

I don't expect this series to be about them attending training and doing promotions because it probably won't be a slice-of-life for too long. I'm expecting individual conflicts for the characters, more developed backstories, and a bigger storyline. If they get the viewer to feel invested enough after a slice-of-life beginning to develop attachment to the cast, they might be able to pull something really amazing off.

Ep2's ending was amazing. Rie's best song by far, in my opinion.

Oh man, have you heard her "Renai Circulation" from the Idolm@ster album with all the Bakemonogatari covers?

So moe I'm gonna die.

Black Lagoon: Roberta's Blood Trail 5: So, I'm not sure if it was the subs, me forgetting too much after watching these 5 episodes spanning over almost a whole year, or them just not explaining the story well, but I was pretty confused about what Rock was trying to accomplish and what the motivations were for all the other involved parties as well. Other than that, this ova was pretty good, especially the action scenes and the character development between Rock and Revy.

Ikoku Meiro no Croisee 3: What is snobby rich girl doing in my calming SoL show? Well, she still might turn out to be a good character for the story.

Natsume Yuujinchou San 3: So... beautiful. It's amazing how Natsume Yuujinchou can make such twisted and brief loves stories, but have them be heartfelt and touching at the same time. This will probably be my early benchmark "can another episode from this season's Natsume Yuujinchou surpass this one?" episode, like the story about the youkai girl climbing up the tree to discover a view of the ocean was for the previous season.

I liked that entire album.

Gintama 217 - Sho-chan: total badass

I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I just recently decided what I'm going to watch (with help from what y'all have been saying here, 'Perry), so here are my first impressions.

Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu Ni! - 1: Picked it up because I liked the first season. But it's been a while, so I kinda forgot who some people were. Like the green-haired girl. Anyway, good fun all around; looking forward to more.
Mawaru Penguindrum - 1: I don't like the art. At all. Feels really low-budget. As for the story... I'm interested. Lets see where it goes. Hopefully not toward incest.
Mayo Chiki! - 1: If either of those girls wanted to chain me to a bed... that'd be fine. This show really reminds me of MM!, but I think it'll end up better. Good yandere this season. (Oh Dokuro-chan, how I miss you so.)
Ro-Kyu-Bu! - 1: Wonderful loli goodness. Will certainly watch, even if it turns out awful. <3
Usagi Drop - 1: It's good to have something so down-to-earth amongst my other picks. Pretty heartwarming, and it's just the first episode. That other little girl - Reina - was a huge peach, but Rin seems nice.
Yuru Yuri - 1: Yay yuri bait! Wait... you mean it's in the title? And here I thought I was smart for figuring it out. Anyway, it's nice to see a show about 4 girls in highmiddle school without a token D-cup. Silly randomness as expected, which is fine by me.

The only one I'm worried about is Penguindrum. I really hope it doesn't end up terrible/insane.

EDIT: Wait wait. Rie is in Idolm@ster? pineapple, I might have to watch it then.

Iori has always been Rie voiced, even in the games. Pretty sure even in the arcade versions before the console versions came out.

God dammit. Rie's in Idolmaster? Now I have to try it out.

Neet: long episode was long. It's pretty good so far though. Combination of Gosick and denpa kanojo.

Mayo Chiki 3 Meh, this seems to be taking much the same path of "Kore wa Zombie desuka", a good premise and good first/second episode but then loses its magic.
