Didn't care about the villain or the story. They could have scraped the story entirely for all I care.
Season with injured Levy sucks anyway

what a good SaeKano episode.

I just happened to have watched Empire of corpses. I genuinely thought it would be a war anime after the first minutes. I was sort of disappointed by the "crazy" story that followed.

Caught up completely to Black Clover. It's amazing and I can't wait for the anime to begin. I just hope they can do it justice. Has serious FT vibes, but people stay dead if killed. That's a plus in my book.

damn right. Back to best hair
does that character developement actually belong into a spoiler?
oh my god I love those random articles on ANN sometimes
The city council of Kadoma, Osaka criticized a municipal junior high school on Wednesday for purchasing light novels for its student library collection that "have obscene and lascivious depictions." The city council questioned the decision to purchase the novels with public funds.
After students at the school requested light novels, the female teacher in charge of the library searched online for light novels. She chose popular titles at random, got approval, and ordered the books. In total, the school purchased 17 light novel volumes worth 11,000 yen (about US$99) during the 2015-2016 school year. The titles included Renai Makegumi no Boku ni, H na Maid ga Todokimashita. (A Sexy Maid Arrived for Me, a Loser at Love.; pictured right), Eromanga Sensei, and And you thought there is never a girl online?

I had to laugh out so badly when I saw the titles of the ones that are the point of concern. Like how does that even happen in the first place. You randomly pick some light novels online, you find yourself with those 17 vols of random LNs in your shopping cart online on amazon or whatever and at SOME POINT you have got to see the title of some of those or the covers + Show Spoiler [pic] +... right?
That's seriously hilarious.

LOL Toad, that's funny.
I also agree with Saekano's recent episode(s) being good and Miragee saying Attack on Titan is not progressing a lot is also true and annoying considering the anime is over again soon.
Bahamut still was a bit slower than expected as well, maybe next week.

Damn, i actually like this season of Attack on Titan. Except for a few episodes I felt like something is actually happening, that was the main reason why I mostly stopped watching anime: So many Animes have bad pacing and way too many dialogue sequences that aren't needed and therefore extremely boring.
I felt that AoT cut those to a minimum.
I mean, holy shit theres a + Show Spoiler [S2 - 26 "Beast Titan"] +
What ? + Show Spoiler [S2 - 29 "Soldier"] +
Ì finally got to + Show Spoiler [S2 - 31 "Warrior"] + confirm my theory that Reiner is the Armored Titan.
And all that stuff that happened after got me hooked.
Even though I can understand that you guys feel the "story" isnt progressing, I still feel that a lot is happening :o
The music is still great! Unfortunately I can't find one in particular ... gonna leave a super spoilery YouTube link, if anyone knows the Name of that song i'd appreciate it.

On a sidenote: Any1 got an Anime that they recommend, I've stopped trying any. I'll watch whatever the first responder recommends, except School Days. Don't care about genre at all.

+ Show Spoiler +Well, the thing is that all those things you mentioned aren't really progressing the story. Yes a little bit sure, but mostly they are dishing out new questions. Why is Eren needed? What were Reiner and the other guy, whose name I forgot, thinking? Seriously so far their explanations make very little sense and are completely contradictory.
We also spent 6 episodes or so on Eren's capture, back and forth, back and forth. Sure, it creates tension but for what reason? The season is over today anyways... In a longer season this would have been fine but now it feels like an unnecessary plot insertion with little to no new information for the viewer.
AoT's hook is mainly based on atmosphere and mystery. Mystery doesn't work if you draw it out endlessly and make multiple year breaks. I also get the feeling that they won't be able to deliver anything satisfying to answer all the questions they have thrown at us.

Damn, didnt actually realize S2 - 37 is the last AoT episode this season... well, this time we dont need to wait 3-4 years!

If S3 is 2 cour that'd explain why S2 is only 1 cour. The ending for the second season would be very akward if it were 25 episodes and they probably wouldn't be able to do 30+ episodes back to back.
Devilman key visual is out.
Devilman is one of the most influential manga ever and it's getting a full adaptation directed by Masaaki Yuasa and yet not many people seem to care about it

They prob just sticking to shorter seasons so quality doesn't dip. There are very few studios that manage to handle long running series with consistently good quality.

According to MAL Yuasa is only doing a 20 minute ONA. I think this was the reason why I didn't put it on my ptw list when it was announced. But now that I have looked at the page more closely it seems it's going to be a series, not a short movie. That is definitely welcome, even if I have no idea what to expect from Devilman.
Unrelated: I've started Jormungand, 2 eps in. Seems pretty cringe-worthy, I'm not sure I want to finish it. I guess I'm going to give it one more episode.
I've queued up Aoi Bungaku and Now & Then, Here & There for DL. That might take a while though.

Huh, I thought it was going to be a movie, or short OVA thing like Cyborg009 vs Devilman. If its going to actually be a full series adaptation, sign me up! Uncle Go stuff is always a fun ride!

we need another season of nozaki anime, just read a new chapter and I'm still laughing

+ Show Spoiler +But I wonder... was this anime set before/during Oreimo? And if so, was it Masumune and Sagiri's work that drove that series?

Quan Zhi Gao Shou is over for now. + Show Spoiler +Awesome music in the last episode, definitely one of the best shows this season. The ending episode didn't conclude much but I'm okay with it. MC going for the comeback now and I guess he creates his own pro team later in the show.
There apparently is going to be a second season 2018 which is cool.

i heard rumors about it actually being a game in development, is that real?because the things you can do in the show version of game seem crazy, using gun fire to propel urself into the air like wtf has is that balanced at all
