It's a prequel, the manga owari no seraph(source material for the anime) was released first and the prequel LN (Owari no Seraph - Ichinose Guren, 16-sai no Hametsu) was released second.

Ah k if it's a prequel then Owari isn't a sequel to anything but the original source. Anyone here read the manga able to answer my original question? Is the manga just weak or is this just a really low budget adaption.

One of my favorite anime in fact. It's quite different from my other favorites but hell it's so good. I think top atm in no order is something like Katanagatari, Iroha, GitS, Monogatari, Jinrui wa Suitai ,Kenshin OVA and shit it just doesn't end. I don't know why I started listing them when I have no idea anymore :<.
Anyway you loved GitS so just believe in your senpai and watch Iroha. Omfg, all of your favourites are on my ptw already except for GitS which I have already watched. My ptw is too freaking long. -.- And you have questioned the purpose of MAL - sometimes it's pretty useful.  Miragee my son. Stop watching shit airing stuff and start that glorious train of anime. Nothing even comes close to the quality of those shows in the past seasons. lel... yeah, I probably should have just watched Mikagura and Kekkai Sensen from this season instead of wasting time on Arslan, Owari and UBW (although I really liked s1, it was a lot better imho) as well as tons of 3 episode drops. I still ended up watching a ton of shit from past seasons. I intend to list them here when I make my closure listing on spring season. However, summer season looks pretty promising. It's obviously not going to be as good as watching gems from the past 20+ years or so but there are probably more shows that I want to keep during the season than there have been in spring. Side note: My ptw list encompasses an entirety of 112 shows, including movies and specials, minus 16 "not aired yet" shows... It has been growing way faster over the past 6 month than I can empty it by watching. -.-
Just stop watching airing stuff and get into some of those shows. Seriously nothing airing is remotely as good as stuff like Katanagatari ,Humanity has declined or Iroha.

Thanks to those who rec'd Shokugei no Souma. Saw a few episodes last week and was thinking if it's worth continuing.

@Numy: I think Blind-rawr read the source. What I can tell you without knowing the source however is that it is a really low budget adaption.
And lol at your last sentence. At first I thought you wanted to say that new animes that are coming out are shit with "Humanity has declined".^^ Well, I think you have a point but I probably won't stop watching a handful of shows each season. I just like to put in my two cents and discuss things way too much. : / I also tried watching Katanagatari with a friend a few weeks ago and she fell asleep during the first episode. To be fair, she was already pretty sleepy before and such a dialouge-heavy show wasn't helping it. The only point that we agreed about afterwards was that we didn't like the character designs, lol. I guess I have to watch it alone at some point. : / I guess I will start with something from your list after finishing up Canaan. But there is so much high-priority shit on my list. Things like Texhnolyze and Tatami Galaxy are even waiting on my harddrive already.
I also forced another friend of mine to finally watch GitS:SAC because he was on holiday and had a lot of free time on his hands because of that. o/ So far, he had only watched the movies (in his youth and then again with me) before. He loved s1 a lot.

Tell your friend she's a dirty whore. Togame is a beautiful princess that requires your attention. You both don't deserve her!.
As for Owari, I ask because even if the animation was rather shit I'm wondering if how lackluster the story "peaks" felt were because of the studio of just the original story. The whole "timeskip" after the initial confrontation was so lazy it made something mediocre even worse.
I just rep Iroha any chance I get since it's so under-watched. Same with Jinrui. They are both far easier watches than Katanagatari or the other two you mentioned. Unless you like crippling depression after watching a show.

Togame is amazing. Cheerio!

A lot of the owari no seraph stuff in the anime is anime original. There was one episode that only adapted 1 chapter for instance.

lol, I won't tell her that even if it's for fun. And sorry, but I do think the character design (I'm talking about the drawings here, sorry if that wasn't clear) is pretty lazy in Katanagatari. And yes, I like crippling depression after watching a show sometimes.

I'll admit the characters of Katanagatari are looking a bit strange at first. Still, it's one of the best animes out there, so don't let that stop you from watching...

Finished Haikyuu!! Those were some intense games. + Show Spoiler +Like how the anime only allows 2-3 episodes for a match compared to 6 or so by Kuroko. Made it feel a little less disjointed which is always a good thing imo. Was glad that they made them lose to Aoba though. Would've been funny if they just went to nationals by the end but that just means that they'll likely reach and win nationals in the second and/or third season if there is one.

That's just Take's style, has nothing to do with lazy or not.

Yeah, lazy definitely isn't the word to use. It's not like it's easier or faster to draw/animate compared to the average anime. It's just an art style.
If you wanna see lazy animation watch denpa kyoushi

I like that art, Zaregoto anime with it never.

I enjoyed that UFO episode quite a lot, nice one. Kumiko fighting!

zaregoto is probably too grimderp for tv
Also densetsu series is more fun

finished DxD 3rd season. Didn't really strike me as a bad episode for someone who doesn't know the differences. Pretty much on par with the rest of the season if you go into this as a stand-alone without caring about the original imo.
All in all a 4.5/10 for me. I was considering putting it at 4/10 on MAL but it's not bad enough to be on the same level as haganai so it ends up having the benefit of being rated the same as IS and Seitokai Yakuindomo (2nd season) for me despite being a bit worse than them.

ufo + Show Spoiler +LOL Reina's face when Kumiko said she was alone with Taki-sensei, and her trolling after with ufo-kun.

Well, I should have worded it better: It looks lazy to me. Doesn't mean it's necessarily lazy.
And I wasn't talking about the animation. That seemed fine to me.

It won't stop me from watching it, don't worry. :D I'm not a graphic whore. It's just that it's the first impression you get from a show/game etc.
