Too much flashback. Surely Ushio didn't drown in the meanwhile... The sad thing is: It was so obvious that it was Tora the whole time because they said that Tora's rivalry with Hakumen has lasted for over 3000 years already, just recently...

Yen Press Licenses Konosuba, Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody Manga, Light Novels
Both series follow protagonists who visit other worlds Yen Press announced on Friday that it has licensed Natsume Akatsuki's KONOSUBA (Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku o! or KonoSuba – God’s blessing on this wonderful world!!) light novel series and Hiro Ainana's Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody (Death March Kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyōsōkyoku) light novel series, as well as their respective manga adaptations. [...] Akatsuki launched the light novel series with illustrations by Kurone Mishima (The Devil is a Part-Timer! High School! (manga) in 2013, and Kadokawa published the ninth volume in June. Masahito Watari launched the manga adaptation of the original novels in Kadokawa's Monthly Dragon Age magazine in September 2014. Kadokawa shipped the third compiled volume of the manga in March.
so there's that for people who like buying those and were into KonoSuba from last season. There's not timeline and can't really tell you what to expect of it though.

-.- why, WHY?
Same for Ushio to Tora, ppl on MAL apparently thought it was an epic episode, but I felt the same as you. What happened was too obvious and lowered my enjoyment a bit. Also was basically a slideshow.
As for Sakamoto, it's sad but I don't mind it that much. Not because I don't like the show, but because it's episodical and missing the last episode isn't worse than missing any other episode.
to outrun the big thing there was a huge deal of having to go faster.. but by the time they were able to go faster the big thing was already on the train.. so what was the point of upping the speed at the time, other than almost derailing lol
Finally watched Kabaneri 6 and yeah, music definitely the saving grace. That said, I alr found a download link (http://hikarinoakariost.info/koutetsujou-no-kabaneri-original-soundtrack/) for the OSTs, coincidentally 16 tracks, same as SnK, for anyone that wants it since it's legit good. There's also a brief 10 mins preview video of all the OSTs on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRcIp0wSr_k).
ReZero is really weird for me. It's probably my favorite this season but I don't actually think it's that great. To be more specific I always get this feeling that the show is massively benefitting from really on point production. Not saying they're throwing money at it or anything like that, just that the people somehow really know how to get the best out of what they have (storywise in particular, which strikes me as weak so far). Really a feeling like it's way better than it should be for me. Same with the music here. I don't think I like either song standalone and god why did they have to leave out the piano intro for the ED from episode 2 (or 1b or whatever it's called)... but they both sound really good in action when you're watching the episode if that somehow makes sense?
One of the shows where I'm probably never going to check out the source because I don't think I'll like that and it's just the adaptation being nicely done. Or maybe you just get the negative vibe on everything about the source from the fact that it's rushing through the LNs like crazy, idk.
^ According to some people who read the ln, they aren't really rushing re:zero from what I hear. Ep7 is only end of volume 2 apparently.

Kabeneri is probably the hugest disappointment this season because of the tone it managed to set in Episode 1.
Reero is my favourite. Joker game is decent. Funnily, with all the shows I've dropped, Terra Formars managed to go back up (because everything is trash XD)
some of the characters would die. Hell, I'm really disappointed that no one is dying anymore. This episode was a lot of blablabla without any real news. Only decent comment was from the chubby girl who realized that the monsters are from psychological trauma. Mitsumune continuing to be a retard, Masaki telling an awful story for the majority of the episode... Then suddenly the bus driver appears with the bus, which was stuck and abandoned because of that.
The ending was interesting, but isn't it like this every episode? Just to get disappointed in the beginning of the next one. :D
Also, IceHism is right, the people reading the ReZero LN say the anime adaption is amazing.

It was still stupid. Why did they need to go fast to not let the thing catch up when the plan was to let the thing catch up to hit a cannon shot from close up. lol...

And the engine driver girl. Nice fanservice of her in ep6. Will watch the show only for that from now on, huehuehue.

You need to remember that someone can have multiple grandmas (already noted). Also, this is JWWW - there may be a massive change for absolutely no reason because why not. Or maybe she's just being called Grandma Shiho. I dunno. I don't think at this point there's any real clue of where it will wind up.
Whatever this Engine girl is I think I'm going to watch it. I'm a sucker for well defined women. So often they just spaghetti arms. Give me those abs, give me those shoulder muscles, give me those thighs man.
Kiznaiver is so cheesy, edgy and plain bad. :D This episode delivered with some Trigger animation quality and a well placed usage of a voice distorter, amongst other things.
