This season has Valvrave, Gargantia, and MJP. It is actually really strong, in terms the amount of mecha. ...Plus Gundam SEED Destiny Remaster, but fuck GSD.

Did episode 2 have any cool fights like the first ep, yes/no? This is the only question relevant to how good it was or not. Who cares if the protag isn't edgy enough for your hipster sensibilities. Note I have not seen episode 2 yet, so in the event there was no cool fight, I will join you people in complaining.
lol@the guy who said Gargantia was enough mecha for him. While Gargantia is good, I don't think there is any good reason for that show to be Mecha. The mecha parts of it are honestly a huge drag on the show. They shouldn't put a giant robot in the show if they are going to make said robot so dull and aesthetically uninteresting. I'm watching Valvrave for the fights and for crazy plot. And yes, ep2 had cool fights (with some added crazy). I basically agree about Gargantia, while it is my favorite out of the three mecha shows this season, it's certainly the one that has the worst mecha, and quite frankly I don't really care about that as it's not about the fights anyway. The best thing about Chamber is that he talks. Ep2 had cool fights, that means Valvrave continues to deliver.
Yeah, I think they should have just gone with something more "normal" scifi, rather than a robot in Gargantia. The Robot in Gargantia really adds nothing to the show.

Wanted to watch Aki no Hana but the score, pics and the negative comments kinda discouraged me from doing so. Probably gonna read the manga if i dont start the anime anytime soon.
This is the worst season ever.

I like Chamber because he is similar to Arbalest.

The proportions look a bit weird, but other than that I like Chamber's design.

Well, AI is hard to beat (or even in any way get in the same league as).

Photo Kano, Karneval and Date A Live dropped so far this season. Crime edge will probably go, too.
At least I've been giving the shit a chance.
Oh, and I watched the original Gundam movie trilogy, it was pretty good. Moving on to Zeta now.

It's like my mom, who says everything my dad cooks is best ever, except opposite. (though my mom just tries to trick my dad into cooking more)

well yeah, except I never read far enough to know he made it to another robot.
Regardless he got the point.

someone got an idea what I might like out of this season if I tell you stuff I liked / watched so far? Started watching around last season and I'm still having troubles filtering stuff decently myself...
Basicly I'm into comedy / weird / harem I guess?
Stuff I liked a lot from older seasons to give some examples + Show Spoiler +Kore ha zombie desu ka - no thinking, just turn your brain off and enjoy the sheer hilarit without trying to understand it because there's no point in that. That's pretty much my kind of comedy. baka test - pretty much the same as above. chuunibyou - The first half was totally my style, the second half not such but still awesome Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai - I usually don't like segmented stuff and it did feel quite segmented. Had to "force" me through the first 3 or 4 episodes but once I did that I really liked it a lot. It's actually the only anime that made me read the manga so far if you ignore the famous ones. Naruto SD - Yeah I usually want some kind of story which it was completly devoid of but I kept comming back and saw every single episode. It was the kind of funny I like, just missing some kind of main thread to be considered awesome for me I guess.
Oh and it does have to look somewhat "normal" for me. Idk I like my anime weird but weird artworks really ruin it for me. Hassy told me to try Oreshura last season and it was decent / good but the design was borderline atrocious for me. That really does ruin anime for me  I'm going to try some randomly (anything that is considered comedy without being slice of life I guess?) but if someone has a tip what I might like that would be much appreciated.
|
Wait... Oreshura design was atrocious but you like Baka to Test??
Though Baka to Test is a much better series.
Not this season but Minami ke sounds like good fit.
|
I have a hard time figuring out what you mean by "normal" designs (how are the shows you liked more "normal" design-wise than Oreshura?), but anyway, try:
Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru. Hataraku Maou-sama! Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko. Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W (this really sounds like what you are looking for, it is a second season though so you'd have to watch the first before; also it has a lot of references which will go over your head but it's no big deal) Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san. Z (again, second season; it's only 12 min per episode, the humor is not for everyone I guess but might wanna check it out regardless)

Me and you should be friends.
Hentai Ouji, Photo Kano, Haiyore! Nyaruko-san (or whatever it's called) and Oreimo this season are pretty good. Date A Live has had a mixed reception though, and I haven't seen it myself so I don't really know about that. If you didn't see Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai from last season you should definitely do that too.

I don't really know what's "normal" design for me, that's making it really hard :p I know baka test and Naruto SD aren't exactly normal design-wise as well but I was fine with that. It was different but looked good while being different which (imo) just wasn't the case for oreshura. I totally hated one Piece and never made it past 3 episodes solely because of the design of it although I was told to give it a try and being told to just ignore it because it supposedly got better (not trying to argue about the series, I know I'm not supposed to in here, just giving an example )
I watched the first episode of Photo kano and I don't think I like it at all. I'm watching date a live right now (like 7 minutes in) and it does look like something I might like. That's all I've got figured out so far but thanks a lot for those recommendations, will try those out first!
