Shokugeki no Souma
Well I downloaded it on a whim when I saw the torrent. I like cooking and tasting different kind of foods but couldnt stand the disgusting service/rape sections. Do not know if it would gain some decency on the later episodes but I'll try to watch 1 or 2 more.
Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken 2 Sure-me
Didnt have any expectations and it delivered absolutely nothing. Its too average that it hurts in a way. Bright side is its only 3 mins long so enjoyment/time ratio was higher than others.
Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka
Generic game anime. Thats all..
Owari no Seraph
Said why not and actually it was a bit better than I expected. Dunno if I have the will to watch more.
Vampire Holmes Wow it felt like a crappy special they made in a couple of hours for just to make people buy the bd of an anime.

Seraph of the End: Every time I see a Funimation anime that looks promising, I end up being disappointed by the rest, after the first few episodes look good. So we'll go a few episodes and see if I like it. God knows if I'll like it once the twelfth episode airs still... Anyways, looks promising. I actually figured I'd try this because I saw Hiroyuki Sawano doing the music.

Owari no Seraph: For a show that has so many bishies, I didn't expect to use such outdated and terrible looking backgrounds. Besides that, execution of the plot was okay and surprisingly the action scene was actually fluid. I'll stay around another ep in hopes that there is more action, but that is all that is going for it imo. (I still rather have Mokushiroku Arisu be animated)

Re-kan Why does this season have to have so many animes with unfitting or ugly backgrounds? Re-kan however does take the cake with blurry real life scans that don't match the characters lighting at all. Combined with bad shadows, we get floating characters and popup book effects. Well at least I laughed at the jokes so will check out the manga later and make a descision.

Plastic Memories Finally a show with decent backgrounds, except now I'm not exactly sold on the premise. I found it sort of interesting, but without saying what happens when the time limit passes, it doesn't have a great sense of urgency. As for execution, it kept a lighthearted atmosphere with okay jokes, but nothing amazing. Will watch more to get a better feel.

Gunslinger Stratos: Passable art + decent action scenes + a somewhat interesting premise. I can't find too many faults about this except, but neither can I say anything was amazing. I just feel it was slightly above average in every category. Whether or not this will bring me to watch it, who knows.

So many shows came out... time to watch them all.

F/SN UBW 2nd - I think this doesn't need explanation
Re-Kan! - Why the fuck was it so funny LOL. Looking forward to more here!
Shokugeki no Souma - Another foodporn Animation. Well, at least this isn't totally boring and at least slightly funny.
Oregairu S2 - Its okay, the dialogues are like in the 1st season, but Yukino is still a bitch you want to slap hard :c

Nanoha Vivid - I thought of this like that fate zero spinoff, pretty cute. Not much happened in the first episode, and I pretty much forgot everyone's name since it's been years the last time I watched Nanoha. Still, one of the things I'm looking the most forward to this season. All I can say is, if you like Nanoha, then you probably won't have a problem with this show. I think.

Re-Kan - Fairly interested in how this will turn out. The characters are interesting enough for me to say the least. 3 ep guarantee here. That cat though.

Owari no Seraph - Well uh. Another show with pretty much everyone but the MC dead on ep1. It wasn't bad so I'll watch another few eps.

Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka - I've always been an RPG/Fantasy nut, and I was worried I wasn't going to have something like that this season. This one seems to be the one for me anyways. I definitely think I'll stick with this until the end, unless something terrible goes wrong. I hope the MC becomes a little more bad-ass in the future but I guess we'll see.

Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Zoku - S2.... I watched the first, so might as well watch the second. First ep was alright. Nothing stuck out.

I think that's everything..

Where's my digimon ;_;

Seraph of the End - quite a strong first episode, I hope it can keep it up for everything that comes after. Music by Hiroyuki Sawano (HYPE)

Plastic Memories - the feels were more than i expected

all of these have been quite strong so far

Fate/Stay Night UBW Season 2: Just as amazing as the first. Nothing else needs to be said

Gunslinger Stratos: I find the premise of it so far to be interesting, and that's what is keeping me interested. The animation is fairly average and the action was decent.

It's pretty weird how releases for Nagato Yuki and Nanoha Vivid have been unreliable

I personally don't like the current section of F/SN story so i wont be surprised if I don't enjoy the second half as much.

Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha ViVid: It's a bright and colorful, updated Nanoha. A decent short action scene, a crazy long transformation scene, and decent art all around (nothing amazing though). I wish they did some recap of the end of StrikerS to explain Fate's reaction, but whatever, I came for a fun and light hearted series with decent action like dog days, and I'm pretty sure I'll get just that (don't expect a deep plot)

Highschool DxD Born: DxD with updated art and all the fanservice (and comedy) the series was known for.... If you disliked the previous seasons, pls don't watch.

Here we go

Denpa Kyoushi - main character seems close to Onizuka level of teacher greatness. I had some good laugh watching it.
Owari no Seraph - looks nice, but lacks impact. 2 characters I've taken a liking to got killed ;_;
Re-kan! - Strange background aside, this is fun. I want it to be good, but something tells me it's going to get boring. And the girls have surprisingly not perfectly slender legs despite being an anime character.
Shokugeki no Souma - literally wtf. Might stay around and see if things get better. Why can't cooking shows be as good as Yakitate!! Japan ?
Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Zoku - I'm going to quote someone on twitter "So it's pretty much going as if the last episode of the first season aired last week," because that's exactly what it is, apart from the seemingly worse art quality.

Denpa Kyoushi: How many people need to screw up backgrounds this season? Well ignoring the the backgrounds, the show captures the spirit of the manga really well, so I had a good share of laughs that will hopefully continue in future eps.

I think we will only the long transformation for the first time and then it'll settle into a shortened version (or we'll get what happens in Precure Allstars) I generally like the new look but something seems off about Nanoha. Also I didn't see Siglinde Jeremiah in the OP/ED :cry:

Don't tell me what to do. The series seems to be taking its popularity for granted I hope it doesn't drop too much and rely exclusively on new characters and ecchi content.

Owari no Seraph: extremely well done, every single frame looked perfectly drawn and on point. great hook in the pilot episode as well. although a slightly generic story (oh everyone died time 4 revenge), it seems to have a lot of potential. lots and lots of hype. pretty good music too.

Arslan Senki: getting them Prince of Persia vibes. introduces conflicts in belief and shows that Arslan can learn more blah blah. i have very high expectations for this!

Shokugeki no Souma: anime has done the mango justice, can't wait for more.

Arslan Senki: The art style drew me to it, seeing as Hiromu Arakawa designed the characters from the manga. Sadly tho, she didn't do the story for it. I feel like I cannot judge it much yet off of the first episode, since the actual story starts in the second episode, but the premise set by the first episode already has me wanting to see how more of this show will play out.

Denpa Kyoushi: I had the lowest expectations for this, but it's awesome.

Dungeon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka?: Generic, but fun. Hestia is 2cute. Looks kinda rushed though.

Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works 2nd Season: Archer pls.

Gunslinger Stratos: The Animation: Interesting premise but very weak animation.

Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha ViVid: Magical Martial Arts Loli. 10/10.

Owari no Seraph: Would be green if not the high school in the preview. I mean, why? It would be much better without hs hijinks.

Plastic Memories: My heart. Thank god Isla is there or I wouldn't be able to take this.

Re-Kan!: The only red. Not very funny for a comedy. Inoue is super cute though.

Shokugeki no Souma: How do people not like it? It's fun as hell and labeled as ecchi so if you don't like ecchi don't friggin pick it up. Damn people.

Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Zoku: 8man is back with his monologues baby. I like the new artstyle.

I don't know what you have an issue with. They are machines and they break, like a hard-drive
I have high expectations for some 'Do androids dream of electric sheep' styled metaphysics.

Season 2 of Baby steps is looking better than season 1 like most sports anime since it is no longer so hung on explaining the basics of the sport and hits the ground running.

Season 3 of Uta-Pri on the other hand looks to be a waste.

Arsian Senki feels alot like Magi when it was good, but too much doubt to be certain.

Despite not liking Magi, I do like Arslan Senki as of the moment. I had heard good things about the manga in the past from some people that I know. Maybe I like it more so than Magi because I very much like the art style of Arakawa. I'll just have to see how Arslan plays out tho to see if I stay into it or not.

Wow those awful 3d segments and stupid s/m action. Dunno how did I survive this. Also this anime has a doctor claw for some reason.

Doesnt have much to offer but mc is kinda cute.

This anime has too much potential hope they dont screw it up. If it had a manga I would read it immediately.

Shokugeki no Souma - Surprisingly, the fanservice didn't tick me off. Story is good so I could probably ignore the fanservice.

Denpa Kyoushi - First half really was a turn off. Second half is average. We'll see after three episodes if I should drop it or not.

Dungeon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka? - Chaika-tier show. Same judgment as Denpa Kyoushi.

Plastic Memories - Good series. Time of Eve vibes.

Fate/Stay Night UBW 2: Makes the same mistake as season 1, meaning it tries to cover up something utterly mediocre with good animation. It doesn't work for me.

Denpa Kyoushi: Otaku GTO? No thanks.

Arslan Senki: First episode looked pretty good, though I'm wary of the CGI and Arslan's design. Still looks promising.

Kekkai Sensen: Best first episode by a landslide. Bones + Nightow deliver for sure. Looks like I'll be in for an awesome ride. Also nice that they brought the black cat from Trigun back.

Shokugeki no Souma: Not really feeling it yet.

Dungeon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka?: One of those utterly cringe-worthy LN adaptions again.

Baby Steps 2: I missed it, so it's good to have it back.

Owari no Seraph: Waste of time.

Disappearance of Yuki Nagato: While Moe Yuki can be fun to watch, that's pretty much the only thing it has going for it. Everything else is just too bland, though the original wasn't much better either.

DEnpa Kyoushi has the problem that it fills the same niche as Assassination Classroom and will need to try to not feel the same.

Owari no Seraph could either become a shitty 'macabre for kids' show like Tokyo Ghoul or standout on its own. looks like the former atm.

Unconvinced on Kekkai Sensen

Show by Rock: Wow this show was everywhere in both plot and art style. From typical semi 3d anime shading, to a realistic CG city, to a very flat 2d popup ending scene. While I thought the action scenes were pretty bad, we had the ginga bishonen singing in a band with rainbows and stars. And then, there was more singing. I'll give this show another ep before dropping.

Arslan Senki: I usually don't like adventuring series because they usually have a naive protag who is "discovering" new things while he fights with ideas like racism and other forms of bias. This show is no exception. It would be passable if the protag cut in some jokes or if this was a jrpg with some plot and user interaction, but this has neither.

Kekkai Sensen: Wow this is one of the best Bones shows I have seen in ages. Stylistic attacks in the style of older super heroes mixed with solid animation and backgrounds. I am not exactly caring much about the mc, but that can easily be overlooked when everything else is so interesting.

Hello!! Kiniro Mosaic: Yay! Exactly what I need when it comes to funny slice of life Animes. Doing a good job as season 1.
Nanoha Vivid: Pretty good so far, I really enjoyed all the Nanoha stuff so far and grew a liking to the characters. Glad to see that Vivio is getting the attention now. Promising :D
Is it wrong to pick up girls in a dungeon?: It was okay, but I'm not sure about this one yet. One scene in particular threw me off. Let's see how well it will go in the next episode(s).
Denpa Kyoushi: Okay I guess, can't say much about it, only that the animations are mediocore and that it reminds me of GTO lol

Ace of Diamond S2 looks to be alot like Kuroko's B'Ball with just repeated game after game I don't know whether this season is going to be as long as season 1 but if so 1 episode really indicates nothing.

I personally prefer Nanoha over Vivio so I guess I'm waiting for Einhart to join the group since Jeremiah won't be appearing very soon. I hope Vivid is testing the waters for a Nanoha Force adaption since I think it'd make a much better anime.

As someone who didn't at all care about Yuki Nagato did fans of her actually impose that kind of personality on her blank slate of a character from the original show? I guess I have a friend I can ask next time I catch up with them.

There's always the original Haruhi Suzumiya series if you want the original character.

The setting is based on the alternate universe depicted in The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya, in which Haruhi Suzumiya never formed the SOS Brigade. The series follows Yuki Nagato, who in this world is not a stoic alien but rather a shy and tentative girl, as she develops feelings for her fellow literature club member, Kyon.
She's supposed to be different from the original series.

I can't even remember what she was like in the movie but this version of her just seems like a odd point to promote the series on.

Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka: Nothing to say much, the story look alright, nothing extraordinary, I'll wait to see the development.
Nagato Yuki-chan no Shoushitsu: Ok... So I'm a big fan of Tabigawa Nagaru, I really loved the concept of Haruhi Suzumiya, and the developpement following the anime(if you read the light novel) is really good in my opinion, so I decided to read Nagato, since she was one of my favorite character, upon reading it I was a bit dissapoint but still eager to see what they would do with the anime, I was totally dissapointed, I watched this in my bed with my laptop two consecutives days and had to watch it thrice since I fell asleep on the two first attempts, I'll give it another two episodes, but I think this will be a downer overall :c .
High School DxD BorN: Does what it has to do, came for fan service with a decent plot, got me what I came for, The development or the first two season looked better though will need to see more.
Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Zoku: This one, I was told by a couple of person it was good, so since it was airing a second season, I decided to watch the first season yesterday then watch the first episode of the second one, overall, it is ok in my opinion, the thing I prefer is the main character, his personality is really nice and quite unique(not exactly but you get the point), but the first episode was stale in my opinion.

Overall: Really disappoint yet, because dungeon, my friend overhyped this so much that I found it ordinary, but I assume it'll developed to something good, at least, I hope, and the only thing that isn't really disappointing for me is High School DxD, because they have done what I though they would. hope the rule of three will make is way and I won't have nothing to trash this season.

I understand your opinion but oh well.

Highschool DxD BorN - Boobs boobs and boobs. What's not to like? Typical DxD with its fanservice that isn't terrible.

Nagato Yuki-chan no Shoushitsu - Enjoyed it as much as the manga. Good adaptation.

Show by Rock - Not my cup of tea. Did not like the music and the transitions. Not really appealing.

Hibike! Euphonium - I don't think something important has happened yet but it was an alright episode. I quite don't like the protagonist though. Typical KyoAni as well. We'll see.

Hibike! Euphonium: For the concept of the show, the first episode went how I expected it to. The protag doesn't seem too strong atm but whoever that black haired girl with the glasses is I'm all about her :U

Kyoukai no Rinne: I really liked the manga so I feel like I might be a bit biased for liking the first episode so much already.

Not in the mood to do more detailed descriptions why I like them.

I agree with Green Platinum. I do understand it is a spinoff, but if they're going to completely flip how Yuki Nagato is then they might as well make a different character.

Arslan Senki: Reminds me of Magi, but the first episode wasn't really appealing. Might be interesting later on though.
Highschool DxD BorN: Like the prequels it is pretty much okay, but nothing so exciting either. I'm not a fan of huge tits so this throws me off at times. Koneko saves it.
Plastic Memories: Yes please. So promising and I really enjoyed the first episode. Animations are tidy and do look good. The plot is interesting and calls for some deep feels later on. The mixed in comedy was also really good. High expectations here!
Show By Rock!!: The music was good and it has a damn speaking heart-shaped pink guitar. I found it pretty cute, although I wasn't really a fan of the 3D. I don't expected anything really good from this, but it seems enjoyable at least.

Will probably end with Koneko's fanservice happening in fights and ad breaks exclusively. Considering both happened in the first episode probably half of the seasons' Koneko fanservice has happened already.

At first I checked it out only to hear lovely voice of Inoue Marina but its actually a good anime. Every joke worked for me and overall music is great except for the ED.

Hibike! Euphonium
This was the anime I was most hyped up aside the new digimon one. OP was wayy too generic for this type of anime. ED was similar K-on ones. But I like it very much. It has the usual Kyoani lighthearted feel to it and I see this as k-on but one step above.

Sorry pretty far behind.

Hibike! Euphonium: I really hope this more k-on like rather than a romance series. Right now it sits in some inbetween state that is somewhat funny and somewhat awkward more serious character relations

Kyoukai no Rinne: I am pretty sure this show is not for me. I didn't laugh much at the jokes or the scenarios, and instead was more annoyed by the low budget action.

Takamiya Nasuno Desu!: Teekyuu Spin-off: A low budget not very funny 2 minute short.

Hello!! Kiniro Mosaic: I needed a moe show this season. Not as good as rabbit cafe, joke-wise, but it'll do

Nagato Yuki-chan no Shoushitsu: I just treated this as a unique series altogether because I never cared much about haruhi. With that said, the show was okay, some of Kyon's remarks were funny, but they got stale quick.I have some hope in it, but not too much.

Triage X: The low budget HotD. HotD like action/cast with some unfitting CG, and a random burst out of song + bad dance. Pretty much what you expect from this series. Not sure if I want to follow how ridiculous it is, but it delivered as expected.

Gunslinger Stratos: Pretty hard to rate it yet but at least it was not boring, waiting for ep2.
Hibike! Euphonium: Has potential. But somehow I can't really take a liking to the characters yet. They seem so bland. The ending song, though, really nice one.
Kekkai Sensen: No idea what exactly is going on, but it didn't have an impact on me at all. Is it just me or is the main character already really annoying? ;_;
Nagato Yuki-chan no Shoushitsu: Nein!
Seraph of the End: Ja! I didn't expect this straightforward dystopia at all. Crazy exciting first episode already.
Triage X: Ok, nope. Alone the deluxe breasts are painful to endure. The animations are pretty low-budget on top of that. Not my cup of tea. The opening and ending song are good though. Kind of a waste.

Finally posting about some stuff here. Not wholly caught up and I don't intend to be, as there's a lot of stuff I'm just going to wait on this season (too much stuff is airing).

Dungeon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka? - I get the joke, it's like an RPG world. Okay. Where's the actual hook? Why is everyone super bland? Yawn. Next.

Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Zoku - Already liking the direction this is going more than the previous season. The writing's more focused and briskly progressing (apparently they're rushing through the 7th novel here, which I don't mind since the show got way too chatty last season), and the animation's a lot better. We'll see how it goes, because I ended up lukewarm on the end product last time, but we'll see where it goes from here.

Plastic Memories - Only problem I had with this was some ill-timed jokes (especially right at the end). Otherwise, it's an intriguing premise that's doing world building right (showing us various situations of ways a retrieval can go wrong instead of going super in depth with each one to have it drag, no boring monologue of "As you know, this is how the world works...") and already tugging for the heartstrings in a genuine way. We'll see where it goes, as it's walking a thin line at this point, but I'm hopeful! This episode was great, though, and the premise (especially from the first line of the episode) has the potential for lots of introspection and social commentary. Kinda getting a Time of Eve vibe on this, but again, we'll see how it goes.

Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works 2nd Season - New cour of ufotable's F/SN UBW! And it opens up with a really chatty first half and a second half that recaptures what I love about the show: bombastic, lavishly-animated battles with its ever-shifting intrigue and loyalties present during it. Only a blue for me since I feel as though this is not the best episode to introduce the cour with, this is the way they should've ended the first cour.

Hibike! Euphonium - Whoa, I like a KyoAni moe show? That's weird. But there's a lot of filmic cinematography, great attention to detail in the ensemble (especially in the piss-poor quality of the high school band, having been in and around some pretty awful wind ensembles in my day), the moe archetypes aren't grating, and the lead character is pretty neat already. It has more momentum than your K-ON!s and whatnot, but that's not a detractor here, that's just more intrigue as to what's going to happen. It's calming while still being intriguing, and it's my low-key pick for the season.

Mikagura Gakuen Kumikyoku - Lead character's annoying, but gets some great jokes. We'll see if she gets better. Otherwise, the schtick of ~super special high school~ has been done to death at this point but they're really trying to make it engaging. Comedic timing in the show's good, so it's one of those that I'm very much on the fence about.

Mikagura Gakuen Kumikyoku: I just hope the protagonist doesn't behave that way every girl she meets across the whole series. I'm also glad I didn't read any plot summary before watching it.

Houkago no Pleiades: Glad this finally as something to build on those OVAs from a while ago. Too bad there's mahou shoujo hate.

Ore Monogatari: Protagonist is such a bro.

Triage X: Pretty much what others have said

Ghost in the shell arise: Either will bomb or be hugely overrated

Re-Kan - Unfunny and bland.

Arslan Senki - Really dependent on the following episodes. It could go either horribly bad or great enough. For now, it's kind of generic.

Mikagura Gakuen Kumikyoku: The lead character is much more annoying than she is funny, but I liked the fight scene. My following of this show will rest on how I feel about the mc and the fights later on in this series.

Nagato Yuki-chan no Shoushitsu: I did not expect this to become an anime, why did this became an anime? I'm having strong mixed feelings about this... spin-off, it just doesn't feel like what one would expect from Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu (Then again, KyoAni isn't behind this). It just feels like a romantic comedy that's played out, but that's just from first impressions. The biggest problem I'm seeing is that Nagato isn't Nagato, she even wasn't like this in the movie:
...
She was more shy and nervous in Disappearance and it feels wrong to fans of Nagato (Like myself). I know Haruhi S3 won't be bad! I'll continue to wait for it... It's never coming, isn't it?

It's a critical hit for your heart if you even slightly are a Nagato fan. I don't get what they expected from this spin-off at all. Did they think if they take one really popular character and make a show centered around her where she acts the polar opposite, people will just eat it and like it? I'm pretty sure the majority of the Haruhi fans see it the same way and have bitten their keyboard out of anger during the first episode.
And it is not even the only problem this has. The animations and character design don't look good, the original Haruhi style looked way better in my opinion despite it being a lot older.
If it were at least a bit funny, it would probably be watchable, but not even that occured to me. Not even Kyons remarks could save it at this point.
Long story short, right now this is just a desaster imo.

I'm curious to see why it's called "The Disappearance of Yuki Nagato" is it just to keep consistency with the Haruhi universe? or is Yuki going to vanish for 7 or so episodes of the plot? If they keep it as a romantic-comedy a lot more than the hearts of Yuki fans are going to be crushed since it's going to defeat the whole purpose and appeal of the Haruhi franchise.
I really wonder if this was thought through

I can't comprehend what they thought at all. Just for the sake of making something with the Haruhi characters involved? It should've been pretty obvious that this doesn't turn out well. I didn't confirm this yet but I don't think any true Haruhi fan out there is able to watch this without getting sick.

Arslan Senki: Fantasy. Hell yeah.

Gintama: BASED.

Houkago no Pleiades: These drive shafts are pretty awesome with their motor sound. I like it so far but I expected the Pleiadians to be more... human?

Mikagura Gakuen Kumikyoku: Surprisingly not what I thought it would be.

Ore Monogatari: Take is such a big good guy. SHE LIKES YOU YOU DUMBASS. My heart can't take it but from different reasons than Plastic Memories.

Triage X: Didn't even finish the first episode. Just no.

Vampire Holmes - So this is what happened to the Nobunaga + some random stuff huh. Please, enough with the weird combinations already.

Takamiya Nasuno Desu - Good job on rivaling Tatami Galaxy's narration speed. Unfortunately, it is not enough to consider your show good. Unfunny Manzai comedy shorts.

Owari no Seraph - Potentially the best of Spring anime. Surprised to see Urobutcher isn't here but rather in some uninteresting anime. A really great start for the series and Hiroyuki Sawano as an icing on the cake.

Gunslinger Stratos - Hi Urobutcher. First half of the series wasted on a silly quarrel between four characters. Uninteresting story and mediocre animation specially during the fighting scenes at the second half.

Kekkai Sensen - Baccano/Durarara atmosphere. Story was rather generic and bland although the animation and music are great. Average-tier so far.

It's either he joins the crime fighting group to get it back, or after they help him get it back. I really hope they explain why there are convenient hidden cameras in his room broadcasting live because it would annoy me otherwise.

Etotama - Unfunny jokes combined with annoying characters. Meh.

Houkago no Pleiades - The visuals were great but the characters were average. Story is alright though.

Etotama: Cute... Cute... Oh, did I say cute already? Wasn't that funny but I find it okay so far
Houkago no Pleiades: Not so much of an impact, but I'm interested in the story
Mikagura Gakuen Kumikyoku: Kind of noisy MC and I don't find it funny
Punchline: The more the episode progressed the weirder it became, but I found it really cool. Its again one of those Animes with a totally strange story where you are wondering whats going on.
Urawa no Usagi-chan: Just a 4 minute short one. After Aiura few seasons ago this is only the second short one I'm watching and I decided to because the cover looked nice xD What I got was just 4 Minute of... nothing. Nono, I really mean: Nothing ^^

Nisekoi looks stagnant as ever with sparkles for everyone.

Shokugeki no Souma: Food porn continues, shouldn't this be the point he identifies he still has much to still learn, he impressed the notorious food critic or is this series going to be him fighting prejudice rather than becoming a master chef?

DanMachi: Why is the goddess so into him? Even with my pixiv feed getting spammed with this show it still hasn't caught my interest.

Hibike! Euphonium: (content is totally biased) as an ex concert band musician, I find the intro to be quite realistic, but from what I've seen yet, this could be going into something great if they don't messed it up!
Denpa Kyoushi: I don't know what to think really, it's really unstable, some part were awesome in my opinion but some of it were really boring and stale, but if they take a great direction, I think this could be good.
Ore Monogatari: Yo, everyone wants a friend like Takeo, holy crap, he's so freaking nice and everything, I love romance anime, so probably being one of the few non-harem romance anime airing this season(with Nagato but I'm currently disappoint with that one), this one win my bet automatically, probably one of my favorite this season.
Kyoukai no Rinne: I'm finding this one quite boring at the moment, I had problem not falling asleep on it, need to see more to make a more concrete decision.
Nisekoi: Does what it has to do, but so little content in that episode, quite disappointing for an opener, considering it was one of the most awaited fan service this season I think.

That was a long catch up session.

Plastic Memories - Onion factory.
Nagato Yuki-chan no Shoushitsu - Nagato kinda ticks me off. But I'm halfway from converting to Haruiism, so I'll keep this around.
Kekkai Sensen - Promising, but lacks impact.
Nisekoi: - Get ready for the second world waifu war.
Etotama - The story is not really interesting and Nya-tan is annoying. The pretty CG is the only thing about this show. I'm leaning toward dropping this.
Kyoukai no Rinne - I miss this kind of anime. Cool stuff.
Mikagura Gakuen Kumikyoku - I was expecting D-Frag! level of chaos, and this one seems to be leaning that way.

Still waiting for Digimon Tri.

Ame-iro Cocoa: The Ginga Bishonen is everywhere I tell, everywhere (Sorry, Miyano Mamoru most momorable role to me was the Ginga Bishonen)... Besides that, a not very funny, but at least decent looking ep with a super abrupt ending. Not going to bother checking what happens next.

Etotama: Nya-tan just makes me angry, and the show is so incredibly low budget until you get to the CG fight, which was really well done. I might come and check future CG fights, but that is it.

Houkago no Pleiades: I really wanted Subaru to turn into a car during that transformation scene..... there is enough Subaru advertising. Okay moving on beyond the car jokes, it wasn't a great ep, but it wasn't terrible. There was some great animation and CG, and there was some lackluster stuff. Jokes seem pretty mellow, and storyline just seems to exist. Oh well, I'm not bored, so going to try some more.

Ore Monogatari!! - Holy hell, this is right up my alley. Silly, sugary, sparkly shoujo that's earnest and wears its heart on its sleeve. Hope it keeps it up, it's charming as heck.

Punchline - Uchikoshi isn't known for comedy, and man, here, he really isn't funny. Lavish animation for an unfunny series of jokes, and it's just all kinda lame.

Owari no Seraph - Good production values and a neat concept don't help the paint-by-numbers story execution, but it's certainly entertaining.

EDIT: Last show I'll watch this season outside of Ninja Slayer and maybe Arslan once more episodes have aired to binge:

Kekkai Sensen (Blood Blockade Battlefront) - Rie Matsumoto direction here is on point! She really understands the interesting material at hand, and plays with multiple kinds of intriguing shots that all flow together into a neatly coherent package. The setting is intriguing and we'll see where the story goes from here, but it already feels like a lively, vibrant world despite its grey colour palette (really capturing the actual feeling of NYC here), and it's animated really well. Clear standout winner for me this season, up there with Plastic Memories in terms of best first episode.

Owari no Seraph ep2: I was seriously expecting more of Van Helsing kind of feel with the protagonist set in their 30's or so. As soon as I saw the highschool scenes and opening theme my expectations really plummeted. Looks like plenty of things I've seen before.

Denpa Kyoushi ep2: I hope the drop the YD thing soon. voice acting is unimpressive. Not to mention I hate these can do anything with no effort characters.

I need to catch-up with some Winter 2015 shows that I haven't finished yet some days before today. So Late impressions:
* also probably rip English, sry

OreGairu Zoku - Yanagi Nagi is <3. The Story impressed me quite a lot. But because of a drastic graphic change, I had to get familiar with this new change. So far a good series...

Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka - Beside Hestia's (you know), I found this show is good enough to watch and I probably gonna watch this until the end of season (But still man, Kirito's Voice again?)

Owari no Seraph - Why does I feel like that I watch a combination of Tokyo Ghoul and Attack on Titan. Has Good Story and Magnificent Graphics too. So far I love It...

More to come...

Plastic Memories Yes. I got bored/depressed while watching this. I didn't find the characters appealing enough. Not my show.

Kyoukai no Rinne I still feel like this might be worth watching. Definitely not something that stands out, but let's go anyways.

Houkago no Pleiades I'm a sucker for Mahou Shoujo stuff... Though not the most interesting thing, I'll watch one or two more eps before deciding.

Ore Monogatari!! uhh. I have no idea what to say here.

Yamada-kun to Nananin no Majo This is gonna be as much of a roller coaster ride as I was expecting after reading a few chapters of the manga. This one hit me up with a few good laughs. Definitely going to finish this one since I still haven't read the manga that far.

Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works 2nd Season: Hell yes.
Gunslinger Stratos: The Animation: Okayish stuff, will keep watching because sci-fi.
Hibike! Euphonium: idk, I liked this one.
Kyoukai no Rinne: Kind of refreshing stuff, still not that interesting or good enough, just the average.
Nisekoi:: Not like I'm expecting much from this, first episode already failed me (not enough Tsugumi).
Ore Monogatari!!: Probably the first time I was attached with a shoujo in the first episode, this is so great, hoping it stays the same or better.
Plastic Memories: Cute robot girls.
[Superstar]_old
[Superstar]_old
Nisekoi:: Nope. During the episode I had a flashback of 20 episodes uninteresting and it wasn't any special either. Maybe it is because I can't seem to build up a good connection to the characters. They don't appeal to me at all, and even Chitoge, I liked her at some point during the first season, is sinking for me. In my opinion, this is only enjoyable when you have the one waifu chosen and get overly excited of her screen time.
Ore Monogatari: This is going to be lovely. Like, when I started the episode I didn't have high expectations at all. I got surprised here.
Yamada-kun and the 7 Witches: Hmh, it's alright, although I think I make the big mistake and keep comparising it to Kokoro Connect in my head even though they are different besides the body changing aspect. Isn't bad at all, but need 1 or 2 more episodes to see if it stays at a medium level or if it is actually good.

Nisekoi: Biased because based SHAFT and Nao Touyama
Fate UBW Part 2 : Animation's as great as ever. Not completely sure what just happened in this first episode, but the show's still holding up for me. Close to being a green at the moment.
Gunslinger Stratos: As much as I like the premise of the series, the animation is incredibly meh. Something I'll keep looking at for the time being to see if it improves, but the first episode left a strange taste in my mouth.
Hello! Kiniro Mosaic: Enjoyed it as much as the first series, so it's looking pretty good. And again, Nao Touyama.
Houkago no Pleiades: For some reason, the Drive Shafts having motor noises cracked me up way more than they should have. Animation is great, but for a first episode it is fairly confusing. In green territory, but hovering very close to blue.

Wow I'm a bit late.

Punchline
Dunno what to say about it actually, it has some really experienced voice actors (Watched only to hear Kotobuki Minako) but other staff are a bit inexperienced. Jokes were mostly lame and it doesnt have anything to keep me watch it.

Urawa no Usagi-chan
I like watching shorts on small breaks from games. You dont need to devote too much time and they are usually really simple. This first one was like a pv to an anime, showing the characters and giving a glimpse of what this will evolve to. It didnt have any content whatsoever but its so short that I didnt feel negative about it.

Houkago no Pleiades
At first i was like "Madoka too much?" When it went on it decreased a bit but cant help thinking about madoka while watching this. Also was 3d really necessary on the flying scenes? This season has too much unnecessary 3d :roll: .It's not particularly bad I guess. Car sounds were funny..

Grisaia no Meikyuu: Drama and then tragedy and then abuse and then incest and then rape and then suicide and then pedophilia and then child soldiers and then and then. The episodes composition was horrible and seemed more preoccupied with with getting the series an adult only rating than making the content enjoyable or interesting to watch.

Yamada-kun and the 7 Witches: I really have trouble grasping how this series could go several episodes down the line. Similar position to Superstar

Calling you out on this. The episode literally ran like an infant talking about their vacation, plenty of Then this happened, then this happened then this happened, but I guess that that is all you can really do when your protagonist has as much emotional depth as concrete. The director really seems to think you can go "look at this atrocity, now treat us like a grown-up-anime" but really it just seems childish focusing on the event exclusively and ignoring it's implications. It is really 'macabre for kids' or whatever equivalent you want to draw since these events probably wont even mean anything except fanservice to the story that will unfold except maybe the child soldiers bit. Now this "best sister" you claim is completely hilarious as she really is one of the worst anime character archetypes, the "I can do anything amazingly because I am a prodigy or just because" and history shows these characters rarely ever undergo any kind of development and really exist for some kind of power fantasy. From Grisaia no Kajitsu we even know this to be true.

The Labyrinth of Grisaia: I liked it. Was nice to get to know more about Yuuji's past and what he had to go through. Nicely portrayed, and I especially love the relationship he had with his sister. Overall really good content for the 48 minutes this special had. Looking forward to Rakuen.
