Friggin' depositfiles won't let me download the new Sankarea chapter. What chapter is TWGOK up to now btw? I kinda lost interest after the loli arc. Are you serious? The stuff after her arc is arguably the best in the series because of plot, capturing god mode irl, and hints of an actual ending. Anyway, it's up to 129 now.
D:
I must catch up this weekend!

I think this show has officially taken my #1 spot for the season. I was hesitant, but now that I see the direction it's taking I'm really excited to see it all play out. Now, on to YM and IS. Don't expect much from IS, it'll only disappoint.

Well, I saved it for last. I was disappointed last week when I discovered it was going to be super into the Harem aspect so now I'm not expecting much from it beyond that. Well, that and queer male pilot outfits.

IS + Show Spoiler +if it weren't for the little fights this would be no more then an A-typical harem show in every possible sense. I have nothing to even say about the episode because there is nothing to say.

IS is admittedly a really bad show. Definitely the guilty pleasure of the season.
This post has already been reported? Beat me to the punch.
Edit: + Show Spoiler [Madoka speculation] +Sayaka's wish got granted, but I'm gonna go ahead and say that it won't magically make everything okay. Yes, Kyousuke's (I think that's his name?) hand has healed, but what about the psychological scars? That, or he's gonna become a huge dick and shun Sayaka. No happy endings allowed in Madoka.  The whole mahou shoujo vs mahou shoujo angle kinda reminds me of Nanoha, except with less friendship.

IS could have been a classic, but instead it's just stupid harem bullshit. -_-
The harem part isn't even that well executed, IMO. : /

What is a well-executed harem?
Har har, watching Kore wa when two roommates were around was a bad idea.

It needs a good, enjoyable male lead. Like Sugisaki in Seitokai no Ichizon. He actually tries to have a harem. And is funny in how he fails at it.
Ichika just has a harem because he has the only penis for a 10 km radius.

A good harem, imo, is one where the male lead doesn't suck. He can't be utterly clueless all the time because that's boring and overdone. Bonus points if he actively pursues the girls in his harem.
Makoto does not count in the above explanation.
Hope your roommates like fanservice.

I did like Ichizon and Yakuindomo (if that's a harem too) but then those aren't 'original' harem. Guess a harem is harem, predictable.
Anything else you guys would recommend?

God, I hate Ichika. There's nothing remarkable about him. Yeah, he's the only male IS pilot, but seeing as how we don't know much about the universe it doesn't seem all that remarkable. He's not cool, or good-looking, or really smart, charismatic, and for being the only male IS pilot, is a total disgrace to the male gender. -_-

Well executed Harem? Clannad.

Yakuindomo I wouldn't really consider a harem, but I would consider it hilarious.

Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou? In this case though, the protagonist was bearable because he was badass, not because he handled his harem particularly well.
Shuffle Screw that.
I wonder if Ouran counts.
Edit: Darker than Black. + Show Spoiler +Every love interest dies, with one exception.

Oh yeah I forgot I had to get that Ichiban somewhere.
Shuffle? I remember someone posting it almost got worth it at ep 8 or far into it. Was it you?
Ouran - reverse right?
