Finished a ton of ep1s, my thoughts
High Priority
Akatsuki no Yona: So many cultural elements. Interesting and expressive characters. Downfall of princess themes. and the direction is fantastic.
Amagi Brilliant park: hah, narcissistic mc with a senjougahara-like heroine. Kanye west, 50 cent, ice cube, and latifa all in the same show(lol these names) I like the comedy and it's an interesting direction that kyoani decided to take with this. Also, the LN is made by FMP's author so i hope this goes well.
Grisaia no Kajitsu: exceeded all my expectations. Fantastic characters and direction. I hope it adapts the VN well. The story set up in ep1 is also very nice.
Gundam G Reco: too much potential, the characters are interesting and the female mc is already suffering.
Kiseijuu: excellent directing and visuals. introspective look on the mc can use some more work though. Got tons of potential
Madan no ou to vanadis : Pretty good, don't care for fanservice but i like the characters and the action is great
Psycho pass 2: well.... it's psycho pass
Selector Spread wixoss: Bato-ru! Suffering!
shigatsu wa kimi no uso: very strong start. next nodame cantabile plz
Garo: the action and cgi in this is a fantastic sight to see. Story has potential.
Gundam build fighters try: i love me some gunpla battles
F/SN UBW: wow, how do i forget this
Medium priority
Cross Ange: its a sunrise mecha that looks a lot like seed... but it doesn't hold up compared to the other sunrise shows.
Inou-battle wa nichijou..... : this kind of reminds me of NGNL.
Shirobako: fantastic direction. Working adults. could be a good comedic representation of the anime industry. really nice.
ushinawareta mirai wo motomete: the art hurts when i compare this to the VN but the story is interesting so i'm staying for that.
Log Horizon S2: ...
Shingeki no bahamut: the characters annoy me.
Sora no method: Getting anohana vibes. cant wait for this to escalate.
low priority
Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken: short 3 minute watch.... why not?
Terraformars : censored all the action.... why?
Donten ni warau : has tons of potential and it's a good show in how it utilizes storytelling but i'm not really interested in what the three characters are going through.
Still need to air:
Mushishi
Yuuki yuuna wa yuusha de aru
i'll probably drop quite a few shows here. oh and i'm exaggerating a bit. no Trinity Seven? no. It's something i would watch if there were less good shows this season but i'm looking to drop shows and it doesn't look that interesting.
I watched the first episode of Trinity Seven with the expectation that I would drop it after that episode, however it was much better than I expected. The MC actually has personality beyond generic MC personality, and the plot seems pretty interesting.
I'm going to keep watching until/if it turns ugly. So I'd say it's worth a shot.

I feel the male mc is actually quite typical by going badass-mode after losing someone he loves with op abilities. But at least op mc are better than a useless one. Other than that the story seem interesting enough for ep1

Trinity Seven and Shirobako.
Really got high hopes for these two.
Everything else is just w/e

I thought Nodame was good, but not great, but even then I feel like a lot of the things you comment on feel like exaggerations for the sake of creative liberty/entertainment and not because they necessarily made a gross error. I mean...batting averages in baseball are usually incredibly low, but in Cross Game, which seemed like they wanted to at least be a bit realistic, everyone had like...pretty ridiculously high batting averages. Like, yeah, we might say that an accompaniment, by the definition of the word I guess, is supposed to complement the performance, but given the romantic component in the anime, I think it fits quite well with everything. But anyway, I just liked Nodame because they had a lot of classical music and it's one of the few anime where they really paid a lot of attention to detail when animating how people played their instruments. :3 Actually high school baseball it's not all that rare for someone to bat .700 to .800 for a whole year. It's not like professional where the best and the worst is only marginally different, if you are really good and on a pro path, you just absolutely destroy everything. This right here. I had an .846 average for one year with no strikeouts. When you're at a level above the competition things like this happen a lot. (i was at a college level in high school). O__O :O Sugoi!!! Wow hahah that's awesome ya until i violently dislocated my shoulder 3 times in a 6 month span and now i can't swing a bat anymore That's like real life Tachibana Hideo stuff...
Wow a baseball anime i havent seen yet !!! yes!!!!!! dude this past winter ive had some serious longings to play ball again so i marathoned like all the baseball animes i could find. and actually, it made me go to the batting cages, for the first time in like 10 years, a few times over this past summer and i could still crush the ball, but my shoulder gets tired too quickly.
I would also add for the argument behind stupid high batting averages that in Japanese baseball (like the high school/middle school ones) specifically cross game, which was mentioned, they really only play like 1 tournament and like 5 games in that tournament. It's really easy to have a really high average when you only have like 19 hits in 25 at bats (which is a slightly high estimate of at bats), as compared to 170 hits in 600 at bats (which is like a decent major league average).

Does that mean you're watching Daiya? If so, I hope you've already gotten past the part I spoiled : |

See, you guys are tricking me with these comments and I'm going to spend 20 minutes on Twintails eventually to see that you're all only making fun of how bad it is.
I genuinely enjoyed it. Too funny.

Trinity Seven was pretty meh.
|
Hahahahaha.
Twintails was glorious. At first I wasn't sure whether I'll watch it. But it was SO good.
On another note, I'll stop watching Terra Formars. Too many better things this season.

Did you even try to watch it for 5 minutes? It is so much better than you would think at first. Unless you absolutely can't laugh at trashy/hilarious concepts.

Watched first ep of twintails.
...what did I just watch? What's good about it? Why do people recommend it so?
