If you come in here looking for "anime recommendations" then please refer to this chart before posting: Anime Recommendations (as of may 2014). We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

For currently airing anime, please see Anichart.net

Violet Evergarden was just patently mediocre. Wasn't good. Wasn't bad. It was middle of the road cryporn that shouldn't surprise anyone.

I didn't cry. I don't understand these people who say they felt string emotions and so forth, but I enjoyed it. It was well animated and had interesting storylines, which compared to the usual mediocre memetastic, cliched pap, with tropified characters that is usually anime, makes it outstanding. It isn't perfect, the "fighting" scene and story were the poorest part, the timescale somewhat fishy, but the characters and the world around them were more human, and more real, and held attention for the entirety of the anime. You can say it is mediocre, but mediocre compared to what exactly?

I mentioned this earlier and I know at least one poster stated that it was intentional but the pacing really killed the story for me. As in, + Show Spoiler +
within 4 episodes (I think it was 4?), our MC is already good enough to be writing for a princess? what? This is the same person that just 2 episodes earlier graduated from that school etc... I'd rather they go slow and made it believable for such an anime, rather than speed it up. Yes, they meant it's months later but still, for me at least, this doesn't work as well here.

Don't think comparing Vegetable Garden to the turds that are your normal seasonals says anything really, since nobody should be watching them by default. If they do, that's on them for having poor judgment. :/

At the end of the day, you're better off reading Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou and wishing that KyoAni had the balls to use its aesthetics for something as similarly ambitious and uplifting. The obnoxious post processing effects of the first few episodes tells you where's the studio's priorities really are though.

Adding turds to your Vegetable Garden make your normal seasonals grow strong and healthy and give larger yields.

It also prevents weeds, and retains soil moisture as well as enriching soil biology.

Just finished watching Shakunetsu no Takkyuu Musume with a friend. Pretty enjoyable.
Characters designs were pretty generic but the characters were likable and the ping pong matches weren't bad. Sadly season 2 never probably.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

Eh, at the end of the day, I disagree with the concept that we only end up enjoying things by virtue of them being so much better than the shit we've had to deal with. It's precisely this idea that blinds us into believing that Vegetable Garden is anything above mediocre. -_-

Which reminds me that the new Kino no Tabi was also a heavy disappointment. At least they slaughtered Sheep. =.=

Mango is good too, but nice that it's animated pretty well.

Started watching Full Metal Panic to see if it was worth binging for the new season airing this season.
4 episodes in atm and i'm enjoying it quite a bit.

I am somewhat inclined to go re read the novels again. Fumoffu is just gags so its pretty irrelevant to continuity, but it was genuinely funny, at the time anyway.

Golden Kamuy might be AOTS. That first episode was intense and animation (minus CGI) was on point.

SAO: Alt GGO was a great watch! Was surprised by how different it felt from the usual. Worth a try for anyone who's interested! Also, lol at p-chan.

Yea I was told about Fumoffu being more about really funny gags but...I mean I'm down for funny stuff and will keep in mind I'm not supposed to expect this in the new season lol

Because the writer for the spin off isn't reki kawahara, aka original sao writer, but the guy who wrote the kino no tabi series

Sigsawa was a one hit wonder writer so it being him doesn't mean much. Kino is seriously popular among mainstream JP but none of his other works have made a splash.

To be fair, most seasonals are pretty mediocre or worse. Of course there are occasional gems but that's only logical when you realise that most gems from the past once were seasonals as well.

Yes, that's what really funny and ironic about such statements. Majority of anime that have finished airing were seasonals too at one point >.> As for most being mediocre or worse, well, it's not like every single currently airing anime will ever appeal to you etc... So long as you're able to find several decent ones to watch, I would say that's a pretty good season. I had 5+ airing anime that I thoroughly enjoyed last season.
