<incessant pining for dangan ronpa anime>

New Game looks cute too I guess.

I find it strange that Drifters says it has hobbits in it. When did those become generic fantasy races, rather than just something from Tolkein?

NEW WIXOSS TOO. that's fine. bye.

Danganronpa looks idk man. On the one hand it ties up the series or at least furthers it somehow. On the other hand the anime adaptations have not been the beeeest?

I'm just stoked for SHOKUGEKI 2 ELECTRIC BOOGALOO LET'S GO and the continuing Re zero.

So, where can I even find what's out there? LOL.

Oh nevermind missed that post. ((I thought was linking to the old version of these threads for... some reason. I'm probably jsut stupid.))

I'll probably make a post later if there's anything that looks interesting to me. Thing is, I'm not really the best at picking things to watch myself. I tend to go off recomendation of others to me lol.

I still keep wondering why D. Gray-Man Hallow will have only 13 chapters :(

Depends on the studio. For the most part, 13 episodes means that it's a test run to check out sales.

Tbf I'm surprised it wasn't set for 24 episodes instead. It was a fairly strong show, right? Judging by the previous run of the series. You'd think that would instil the confidence to give it a more substantial episode number.

That doesn't really mean anything. A lot of Anime with popular source material has only 1 cour.

I'm hyped for the 2nd season of Nanatsu no Taizai, first one was good but the manga got a lot more interesting after it and i can't wait anymore to see it as an anime

Only paying attention to the Berserk anime despite the CGI, Shokugeki No Souma 2nd Season, and Mob Psycho 1000. Everything else seems uninteresting, but I'll give most of them a watch for like 1-2 episodes.

Are any of these summer ones actual shows? The vast majority says manga. I haven't checked the fall ones yet.

It says that because those are the source material, i.e. Shokugeki started out as a manga series before getting an anime adaptation.

And in fact the original animation of DR was pretty awful. Cuz they tried to cram the full game into 13 episodes. But the creator outright said, the previous DR Anime was meant to draw in fans to the series. These new anime seasons are something to "reward" existing fans. The fact that they're being made for TV means the pacing and everything can actually be customized to suit their purpose. As such, I have faith in them.

Um, so Keijo is a thing. Like the universe trying to cancel out Free memes and jokes. lol.

or Yuri on Ice. Not gonna lie, Yuri on Ice is well animated and seems nice (if you don't mind the homo-erotic undertones).

You get inured to the fan service pretty quickly and it just becomes another sports anime with quirky training and special techniques.

Just watched the second episode of Yuri on Ice and I'm really looking forward to the music and choreography for this competition.

I was never watching it for the fanservice :3 I love the manga, it's just hilarious. Love the attack names.

Also watching Gi(a)rlish Number. Still waiting for it to turn gay.

Keijo did not enrapture me. The humour of "heh butts n ass" is lost on me when I have been up to my neck in it for two thirds of my life. The character designs are eh and I guess in terms of outrageous weirdness I've been exposed to Prison school, so this show doesn't really faze me.

The only other actual show I've picked up on is March comes in like a lion. This show looks and sounds fuckin' gorgeous and as a guy living on his own right now I empathise with the main character a fair bit.

Everything else is either sequels or I've watched like one episode of. Gi(a)rlish number is from the same person as SNAFU, Oreigairu btw so it's way more cynical than first appearances make it seem. Seriously, I can tell I'm going to love to hate everyone in that show.
