All these blush faces. It's like reading my manga.
The more I watched, the more I kept trying to not compare this to Seishun Forget!
But I liked it, it was very nice, the faces, the characters. I liked the subtleness to her condition as they were getting to know each other and I like his resolve to not give up.

School idol is my favorite high school sport.

4 if you count ping-pong, which isn't that much more than the 3 that aired in the Fall and Winter. The real surprise is that people are watching them, usually sports anime are pretty niche in this thread.

Sports and NEETs are the trend this season it seems

Yeah I noticed that too. When did sports anime become so popular? I was always under the impression a small percentage of the anime viewership watches sports anime.
Yeah. Even with the iOS Chrome on iOS devices as yet can't. It needs OS level support from what I can tell, especially if you want hardware accelerated decoding (which is what you want on phones due to the decoding workload). And Apples firmly on the h.264 side so I don't see them supporting a free alternative. Ditto Microsoft on Windows Phone.

This was pretty bad. Amateur direction all around, dull visuals and it appears to be a combination of a harem and a sport anime, so this isn't gonna get any better. Japanese high school students sure are getting too excited over classical music, who knew they still gave a damn about that. I'm not sure what sort of drama will await the main girl while she decides which guy to choose, but I don't care to continue watching this.
How long until MAL weeabooizes the title to "Isshuukan Tomodachi"?
Yeah, this is the main one I'm going to watch. I was lured into Baby Steps by the promise of romance.
Haikyuu is good, but Ping Pong is my most anticipated sport anime of this season. Hope Yuasa delivers.

I'm all in favor for OP's that aren't j-pop/idol music, but this is just the ridiculous. The images and music work just ok at first. But when the WUB WUB WUBS start kicking in the clash of music with what's going on in the screen are just off.
Not to mention the zoomed in faces for like two characters at the end. It looks like an old school AMV with zero though to making it look like an OP. It's like a kid thought "I like this song, and I like this anime, let me put clips of the show with ma sweet tunes"
Which is to say my favorite part is when the WUBs kick in because it turns hilarious. Especially the random crying MC scene as he stares intently at the camera without blinking
Yeah, this is the main one I'm going to watch. I was lured into Baby Steps by the promise of romance.
From what I hear the romance is there but doesn't kick in until later, though I may be wrong on that regard. Envelope will have to tell us since I haven't started the manga yet.
i always look forward to down to earth shows like that.
F-fluffy? Mofu mofu Caster you mean? Ohhhhhh~
Shes pretty incredible.
noooooo. She is the Queen of ZR.
I cant accept this!
Haganai is really good. I am looking forward to Haganai next. Listen to me girls is pretty decent.
Love Madoka Magica soooo much!
Youve made a wise choice!
It's pretty much the definition of :cajun.

Accel World episode 1
I was watching Accel World(in beautiful HD) and everything about it in episode 1 is waaaayyy more interesting than sword art online, idk how popular accel world was or is, but SAO seems way more generic by comparison.
Also it's probably just cause it's the first episode, but the animation and artstyle seems head and shoulders above SAO, which came out later.

All the bishie sparkles for this season.
We also get Magical Boy Transformations of the likes I have never seen. Besides that it was your basic average girl (who's good with a sword) bumping into all these pretty boys who half of them doesn't seem to give her the time of day and would rather drag another pretty boy away to do who knows what.

Can somebody just make a button for instant 'Is That Your Final Dandy' image response?

AW was written later even though the adaptation came first, which is why it isn't as much of a trainwreck. Dude grew at least a little bit as a writer between SAO and AW.
Now Jex/duckroll/etc don't even have to type, they can just voiceover all the errors in any given piece of background art!

I can already see it.
Majin Bone 1
Anyway, seems like a standard kids anime to advertise the card game Bandai is making. What little I saw of the mecha looked really jarring and bad especially after coming off from Captain Earth yesterday. This is really not for me, but the first episode was completely inoffensive for what it tried to do.
The character designs looked really odd and familiar to me and this kept bothering me throughout the entire episode. And now I just checked and turned out Yuusuke Murata did the original character designs. Makes sense I suppose.

Well, as long as it maintains the cute character reactions and stuff from this episode I'll be happy. Hopefully it won't go too much into stupid anime romance though!

Seems like romance isn't a main focus, just an added bonus. So hopefully we shouldn't see too much drama. I want to see nerd tennis though.
Projectile Motion, modafuckaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Well..looking at the latest chapter
they do date at least and are at point where that seems stable
dub versions better!
It was only natural.

Seikoku no Dragonar 1
I always laugh at bad anime attempts at lazy and bad info dump expositions. So in this episode during the first day classes, the teacher is talking on and on about all the made up words the LN created to make this shitty fantasy story look cool. And then all the sudden the teacher points at the world map and starts explaining the current political situation between the neighbouring countries. Yeah, I'm sure the students who live in this country aren't aware that there is a war going on. But obviously they had to do this now, just so to allow them to introduce the bad guys later on in the episode.
Awful stuff, completely avoid it.
This was so bad, as expected from a trashy LN adaptation.

I guess I had an advantage the first time I watched Hyouka because Umineko had already covered a bunch of that stuff.
One Week Friends 1
This is a new one. "Please, be friends with me!" lol
I don't like the character designs, but I dig the overall aesthetic. The desaturated palette and restrained art give it a nice cozy feel, much like shows such as Usagi Drop that employ a similar visual style. Mostly because of that, a bunch of otherwise anime moments and lines feel more digestible.
I liked the track on the next ep preview and the one they used for the avant, and it'd be better for the show to use scarcer music and more similar to that instead of the mostly inoffensive and forgettable pieces that they dropped throughout the rest of the episode. It fits much more with the visual side.

Me neither. Definitely liked her.
Best Naruto movie imo. Great animation, great fights and a decent story.
Naruto movie 3 was also pretty great.
The original Naruto movies are far better than Shippuuden and sadly the same can be said to the series.

Well you said pretty much everything I would have and more. Good animation can only go so far so this show is on a pretty short leash before I drop it.
I guess the only other thing I can say is I thought it was funny how many reappropriated ideas from previous BONES shows and anime in general they used. I cannot remember a single original take on anything happening in the episode. It was like someone put Star Driver, RahXephon, and Eureka 7 in a blender and this was what came out.
I can't see the problem in that.

Been watching a little FMA every night before I go to sleep and I have finally reached OP3.
I forgot how much I love that opening. Great song and animation to go with it.
I hope so!

love live s2 01
it was kind of boring and the music sucked. for something so popular you'd think basic production issues like outfit continuity wouldn't be a problem, but people wearing track suits or work out gear frequently switched back into their school uniforms for seemingly no reason.
still top tier
