This doesn't say anything to me.
Shaft made Mekakucity actors so their presence doesn't make it perfect.
And -monogatari is so stale now with it's crappy say nothing in 2 paragraphs dialogue and it's directionless arcs that seem plucked at random only seem to be getting worse.

For you. For me, it's still good as ever.

So you can speak for the merits of the series then? Season 1 was quirky but the rest just indicates that it is satisfied with just that.

If it's not broken, don't fix it. And to be honest, I liked Monogatari Series: Second Season more than Bakemonogatari which means at least for me, the series has improved.

For now I only started One Punch Man, it was a pretty good and funny anime so far. Also the main protagonist's derpy face tho.

Planning to watch all of the new animes later, right after I got some quota to download.

Yuru Yuri San☆Hai!: No Akkari~n, No TOSHINOU KYOUKOOOOOOO! (there was a try, but not as lively as I remember), no delusional Chinatsu, no catchy moeblob OP and ED themes, just what happened to my Yuru Yuri

I'm so hyped for Noragami. For the others I'm still undecided to see them while airing, probably I'll see some in the future, but not now.

Pretty hyped for the next episode of Haiykuu! and Rakudai kishi but other than that i'm really hoping the second season of Owari No Seraph is good!

Shows i'll be watching to check them out are : Shinmai Maou no Keiyakusha Burst, Heavy Object, Sakurako-san no Ashimoto ni wa Shitai ga Umatteiru and One Punch man.

After writing this I realised the second season of World Trigger is starting this weekend HYPE

Can we just make the Kekkai Sensen finale the anime of the season? Best thing that has aired by miles.

Taimadou Gakuen 35 Shiken Shoutai: Given my care for the series, I decided it is best to just watch the raw version. All in all it didn't disappoint, a solidly done action scene, and most of the character interactions are there. I'll wait for the subs before discussing the adpatation, but I will have to say the anime is going really fast, covering about half of volume 1 in 1 ep. Also, the raws I saw were incredibly noisy. I hope those are just the raws, but if that is the case, this is sadly not very good on Silver Link's part.

Shingeki! Kyojin Chuugakkou - Are they not done with this yet? Seriously.

Kindaichi Case Files R 2 - Sillier delivery than last season. But it's a murder mystery and it's Kindaichi so that's why it's a blue I guess.. I might drop it when I get bored with it.

Yuru Yuri San☆Hai - More Yuru Yuri = more fun. I'm happy to see them again. Surprised Akari isn't invisible in this episode.

One Punch Man - Pretty fun series. Overpowered protagonist but not like the other shitty self-insert MCs.

Onsen Yousei Hakone-chan - Yet another low quality short with unfunny jokes. Geez, I wonder how many times I'll use this for this season.

Osomatsu-san - Not a short anime but still unfunny. Ugh. The start was a turn off. The rest is a turn off.

Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry - Generic light novel trash plus a protagonist with Yo-shit-sugu as VA.

Gakusen Toshi Asterisk - Hey this is the same fucking thing what the fuck. Generic boy meets tsundere girl in underwear, boy is a sword user while girl is a fire user, and of course, both are harem. TOTALLY ORIGINAL. What a shitty season.

I haven't found anything that great this season. I went and watched a bunch of shows and like 2-3 of them were alright.

So far the only thing I'm looking forward to is Utawarerumono mainly because it's my RPG fantasy show that I want to watch each season. A little bit of bias but whatever, I still feel like it's the best show this season from what I've seen.

Comet Lucifer wasn't that bad, cool fight at the end. I'll try to watch the next episode or two.

Asterisk and Rakudai, both were average, I think Rakudai was slightly better, but nothing special. Seriously I wonder how many more High school magic shows they can make before they run out of ideas.. wait.. They already did.

Lance and Lolis was pointless and really just meh.

Attack on High School Titans was just dumb. No thanks.

One Punch Man was average to me. Like really. Maybe my expectations were just too high or something, but it definitely wasn't as good as I was expecting. Sorry, I'm really not aboard this hype train.

Hackadol, Komori, Kagewani, hot springs girl, all nope.

Sakurako-san no Ashimoto ni wa Shitai ga Umatteiru and Tantei Team KZ weren't horrible. I might watch one or two more eps to see what mysteries they show. Tantei Team had nothing so I'll probably watch one more episode before deciding

Kings Yeah, I shouldn't be rating this, but the animation gave me a headache. I had to stop a few minutes in during the fight scenes, and then found out this was a sequel... so I didn't bother finishing the episode.

All in all, I'd definitely have to say from what I've seen that this is easily the worst anime season we've had for awhile. Almost all of the shows were bad or mediocre for first impressions, and only a few of them might actually be good.

Fall 2015 Worst Season in a long time. In fact, it might be the worst one of all time!
The only thing good about this season is some sequels, that's about it. I guess I can catch up on my old shows and some games.

So is there anything on this list that I missed and should try watching and isn't a sequel? Please help ;-;

I really can really only say Young Black Jack
But that is assuming the first episode is not all that representative of the whole series. While I'd like episodes like the oVA series I doubt that will happen.

That was actually a pretty good first episode. I'm not sure about the OVA series, but I'll probably watch them if this show holds out.

The first ep was good in the fact it captures the essence of what Black Jack is all about. As a fan or the series I already know this and would prefer a more interesting story.

Hidan no Aria AA: First off, this anime was executed a lot better than the original series's anime, not that it was very hard. Overall, a decent start to the spinoff with passable animation everywhere. Admittedly they changed all of the action to have as little environmental effect as possible. On story line side, welll..... they changed a lot..... Not sure if for better or worse. (In the manga, she at least took the "item" with her when she fell). Oh well, if I don't treat this as an adaptation, I can live with it.

On a side note, why didn't they let Reki just stun the driver, could have easily bounced the bullet through the window xD

Fushigi na Somera-chan: Another short with rushed jokes, bad animation, and randomness.

I think Somera-chan is supposed to be the successor to Ai Mai Mi

I don't see what you are talking about Bliss with Hidan no Aria. That opening fight was horrible.

Green Platinum wrote:

They cheaped out on the basically all the backgrounds, but they did at least show the flipping animations. I won't say it is great, but it was passable to watch. Also given what I have to choose from this season, my standards have dropped a fair bit. Just going to recheck and update after.

Edit: Guess I need to clarify more. The 1st fight on the bridge, I can agree that is lackluster. The fight on the ship, besides the ugly backgrounds, was passable (admittedly getting over the backgrounds is a different challenge)

I guess that is true.

Owarimonogatari: It finally begins <3 So excited to see Finale Season getting animated.

So it is the finale? They better not start doing anime original series'

Sakurako-san no Ashimoto ni wa Shitai ga Umatteiru: There might actually be something in this, inductive reasoning is generally a bad way (albeit dramatic) of doing mysteries though.

Taimadou Gakuen 35 Shiken Shoutai: This is going to be popular and get a season 2 isn't it.

Subete ga F ni Naru: The Perfect Insider: Could be an extreme hit or miss

Sakurako-san no Ashimoto ni wa Shitai ga Umatteiru: I can't tell yet what this series is suppose to be about. I'll give it a couple more episodes since the concept in interesting.

K: Return of Kings - "Holy Shit dat' graphic-overload in the first 8min" is my first thought about its first episode... i expect nothing less tbh because if I compared the graphics from the first season which aired 2 years ago and this, it doesn't really have any difference... But still, I can't really understand the story for now. So I'll think about if i should continue to watch or not (the first season is good tbh)

One Punch Man - Overpowered but I like him, and nice graphics... This kinda convinces me to read the manga tbh.

I'm still confused about what I should watch next this season, so i might update my list a little bit late

Nah, there won't be anything else to animate, even as original. It might look like all this Monogatari stuff took so long like an endless milking, but actually they even shortened the whole series in some way. There are 3 large books (First, Second and Finale Season) which have many arcs: in total of 23 arcs. They adapted 16 arcs so far which were very well made. They didn't rush all the seasons and took their time to earn a bunch of money.

Anyway afaik only 6 arcs left, since Kizumonogatari arc will be a movie by itself. Owarimonogatari will include 3 arcs I guess, 1 arc is already finished with the very first episode. We'll see what happens with the last 4.

Though, if the author himself wants to milk this by adding another arc to it, then yeah this series will turn into a shit-milking tour like Steins; Gate.

Sorry for the long wait, the chart in the op has been updated. I had to fix a few of the scripts, but I still want to find a better way to update the op (liveview would be nice). Luckily, it only takes like 2-3min of work to update the op, so it is a lot easier than earlier setups.

Between work, classes, career fair, company info sessions, and homework I haven't had any anime or sleep this whole week. Trying to catch up now.

Attack on Titan Junior High - Pretty decent since it has the parody factor of a hugely popular show going for it and knows which parts of the original show were funny/memey and to take advantage of them. The parodied opening was also a nice touch, wondering if anybody's speedranking it right now.

Chivalry of a Failed Knight - I'm watching this because Silver Link has never let me down, but 2 min in and it's already screaming generic magic school harem LN adaptation with literally every trick in the book. School for students with abilities to use recreational weapons. Some yearly fighting contest between all the students coming up that the anime won't reach and that the protagonist absolutely has to win for reasons yet to be disclosed. Walking in on tsundere ojou sama redhead princess changing and her reaction. You know as soon as they say the protagonist is the "worst" in the school that he has something special that lets him beat the high ranked princess. Actually I wonder if this show's even trying, huh. It's like a fusion of The Irregular at Magic High School, Blade Dance, Absolute Duo, Machine Doll, Infinite Stratos with nothing at all to stand out from them. Hah I'm probably gonna continue watching this unless I don't have time.

The Testament of Sister New Devil Burst - There's something oddly satisfying about a show you like returning for a second season after being gone for a season or year. Even if it keeps the chibi censors and H scene cutting.

Shomin Sample: This premise is new Kappa. The fact that this is based on a light novel and not a porn game is probably the most painful fact to swallow.

Gochuumon: Anyone else wish this was Ikoku Meiro no Croisée instead? People here probably haven't seen it though.

Gakusen Toshi Asterisk, Rakudai Kishi no Eiyuutan: I've seen this so many times. If I ever decide to watch this, I'll pick one of them randomly, since both looks like the same stuff.
Taimadou Gakuen 35 Shiken Shoutai: I don't have anything to say about this, I woke up when I heard Itou Kanako's voice.

Heavy Object: I don't get the concept that well and didn't get the characters so well for being the first chapter. I hope we see more than 1 on 1 super mecha battles as well as some character presentation.
Comet Lucifer: Let's see if the second episode explains us at least a bit of what is happening there. Characters got some big eyes, didn't they?

Subete ga F ni Naru: The Perfect Insider: For the average spectator, the hook of this series is somehow weak, but not like this is for the average spectator, right? Drawing looks a bit poor sometimes, but it's endurable. Personally I'm curious and I tend to watch these type of anime.
Sakurako-san no Ashimoto ni wa Shitai ga Umatteiru: I have a weakness with these type of girls.

This season is reaaaally weak, I only have 5 shows willing to watch, and other 2 dancing in the limbo.

Mfw I called this season would be bad before anything aired. At this point it isn't even a case of the good stuff hiding late in the season.

Actually, it's seven the number I'll watch for sure, but take a guess why I did forget about them, lol.

Aria the Scarlet Ammo AA - Not sure how I feel about the male lead being demoted to cameo status, but I think most fans are just glad that Aria is finally back. This one brings back the badass action and some of the characters from the original series that we know and love. The original series seemed like a typical LN adaptation that was pretty good, but this one seems to be going from a different angle although it'll take more than 1 episode to see.

AntiMagic Academy 35th Test Platoon - Surprisingly fun and interesting despite being a kind-of ripoff of last season's Kuusen Madoushi something. For a generic LN adaptation (with all the same characteristics as one), it sure didn't feel like one—I guess it's the most original premise and setting I've seen in a while. The military style uniforms and vocabulary gave off a very Strike Witches-y vibe, and I thought the character designs were pretty unique and nice (bunny girl looked exactly like Gochiusa's Sharo too). However, while each battle or mission was quite exciting to watch, I couldn't tell between them if they were flashbacks or just time skipping or what have you, or what that scene in the beginning was about.

I'm hurt. I don't see Mobile Suit Gundam Iron Blood Orphans.

You disgrace me...


Anyways, I'll do a review.

Mobile Suit Gundam Iron Blood Orphans. This is a huge change from the other gundam series. Unlike others, this focuses more on the men in battle. The Gundam Barbatos is an interesting concept of a new mobile suit. 2nd episode came out today, so i'll be watching that.

You know, if you search gundam on the list, you'll get "Kidou Senshi Gundam: Tekketsu no Orphans." I just used whatever name anicharts had on their list, but I'll think about how to better name things later.

You could have just done ctrl+f and searched Gundam.

I prefer to keep the names with their original titles for the maximum effect :U

Red means "not watching" in the poll instead of not recommended/horrible although that is true too.

Valkyrie Drive - High quality fap material

Taimadou Gakuen 35 Shiken Shoutai - I saw in the 1st episode it's kind of fantasy anime since there's magic and spell thingy, but there is also an anti-magic army with modern weapons. Well, it's pretty ok anime to watch.

Concrete Revolution: Choujin Gensou - Kinda weird, but it's pretty good. Giant robots, Aliens, Super power, and super hero ofcourse.

Comet Lucifer - The little white haired girl in the anime looks like shiro from ngnl somehow. Mechas, pretty nice.

her* and lol this season is a huge disappointment for me even though Fall is usually my favourite season of the year. I just couldn't find anything else worth my time. I am tired of action-school-comedy-supernatural thingies.

It's gonna get a lot worse before it gets any better. I am personally starting to hope all anime companies go bankrupt in the next 5 years to stop this misery.

Doubt it, considering from your forum history I'd doubt anything you'd say can be taken seriously.

Why is that lol

Ahhh the Aomi thing? lol
I asked for a collab from her and it took her a month and a half or so to actually agree. I'm not so fucking desperate and pathetic to accept that kind of bullshit.

Also if you are suggesting this season is good? Get your fucking head out of your ass. Plenty of anime companies are losing money from all the piracy, I pay for what is worthwhile when it gets localised so I do my share but I hold no sympathy as the modern era is a grave disappointment. (Although that may also be survivor bias too)

Don't have much time to watch anime lately. However, based on what I'm reading here, doesn't sound like many impress.

I'd have to agree that there's a lot of anime that have been really disappointing lately. Aldnoah Zero, Strike The Blood, Magical Warfare and Log Horizon (second season anyway) were all ones I was looking forward to, but disappointed.

That's somewhat harsh. Do you read every post they make and decide that for yourself? It's as if a lot of forum posts are opinionated or something.

I'm kinda curious how much anime companies are making these days. =/ I know it's only our little forum thread here, but I wonder if larger communities feel the same way (decline in 'good' anime series / seasons). Then, as you mentioned, piracy.

Seriously who actually cares what others watch, after all it is entertainment and everyone has different tastes. Mind you I don't think anyone expects something from a hater that's favourite anime is Kancolle and Touhou.

no drama pls pls or i cri.

Drama? this guy is hilarious. I want to know why they'd think I like Touhou or Kancolle though.

That's sort of a hint that you shouldn't take them seriously at all though !

My hate of Touhou has often been dismissed as baiting. I will respond to this person points if they actually choose to make any because I actually take this seriously rather than just dismissing offhand.

I also think they could be a multi of someone even though it is incredibly narcissistic of me (and cute for them) to think that.
