Who's doing the next OT anyways? Didn't some of the more knowledgeable folks here say they were going to write it as to not face a similar issue as when GAF ganged up on us?

Komori-san Can't Decline! Episode 12
Nope. Pretty bad adaptation, you know... despite sticking to the manga quite well.
Idk, I guess I just found the Manga to be more endearing or likable, and found this to be messy and poorly executed.
Don't watch.
One Punch Man Episode 12
I liked it a lot. The fight was great, thats for sure. That said I can understand why people think the backside and the ending were weak. I would have agreed, until the post credits scene which felt like a good send off.
Personally really really enjoyed this series, and I wouldn't be against this winning AOTY.
That said, before that all happens, we really REALLY need to make a WHOLE list of anime that played this yea, because I totally forgot Yona had its second half this year, and most people seem to forget about winter 2014/2015 anime and some spring anime that happened.
Basically, I liked One Punch Man, a lot.

I've hired Marlon James, winner of this year's Booker Prize, to write us an OT.
I've kept the detail that the subject matter is anime close to my chest for now though.

I dropped School-Live like a bad habit. It was too soul-crushing, made Breaking Bad look like MLP.
Sound Euphonium 01 wasn't even sugary enough to get my mind off it. But it helped.

Revolutionary Girl Utena 26
I can't tell you how happy I am that Akio jumped on the hood of the car again.
They probably thought it was King since he wandered off halfway through the fight.
Utena, that's all you ever do. You did it twice just this episode.

The only flaw of the episode was how that wasn't animated properly. I wanted the camera to zoom out to see the blast advancing and clearing the sky in a city view, and then when the audience is saying wow, do the super zoom out and see how the wave of powers is advancing through all the planet.
No.
So that's how ii feels.

So can we all agree that 2016 is going to be godlike compared to 2015 for anime. I'm just suprised by the sheer amount of announcements. Heck having D.Gray Man, Diamond is unbreakable, Silent Voice, Kizu, FMP, Soma, Mob Psycho 100, and etc announced makes 2016 seem like a very strong year.
I mean the fact that a new anime for D.Gray Man was announced even though the original aired about 7 years ago makes 2016 a crazy year for me.

2016 looks pretty good, even just looking at Spring. Next season is pretty weak, however.
I still see her as the shows Onodera. Though shes at least more proactive, especially later on.

True, but what about that anime Hosannainexcelsis tries to promote? I forgot what it's called but it certainly looks interesting.

The webcomic has a rhythm to it that I don't think any of the adaptations have matched. It doesn't have the dead stretches.

You know, I had to Google to remember that name and sadly found out there is a subreddit dedicated to her. I mean really? Lol
Heh. Of course I'm a big hypocrit...for some reason liking Onodera but finding Megumi boring. Maybe its just hanakana.

Hype.
I feel like I hear most parts being called the best parts.
edit: unless you're just talking about the protag

Yep, still down...
Also, more Jojo! Hell yeah!
Now...after they finish that, David Production can make another season of Ben-To...

With Western fans, you are going to hear either 7 or 4 being called the best the most (correct statements)
When it comes to the best protag, there is no consensus.
Yeah you hear that a lot with JoJo. It really varies. In this case I'm talking about the protagonist, but part 4 is also my favorite.
Hell yeah.

Concrete Revolutio 12
The sloppy plotting and confusing structure of this continue to obstruct my ability to get invested in what's going on. It's overly complicated with too many needless characters and factions. There are compelling themes and character arcs somewhere in here, but they are obfuscated by all the excess. For all of this show's ambition, it's failing to bring together its disparate elements into something cohesive.

I'm not hungry for that yet.
most of the gags are structured around the webcomic formatting so its not really surprising. watch the little exchange towards the end of the saitama and garou matchup fall completely flat in both adaptations.
it's also why mob psycho should turn out better as its an actual comic with no frivolous retake on it that misses the point so brazenly

Ahh....this holiday rush is almost done. Few more days to go before I have the downtime I need. Also, going back to watching animated show which I want to get done soon before the year end.

I only recently read ONE and am only 20 or so chapters into Mob Psycho but could you elaborate on what is so different in the Murata/anime versions aside from the art and added stuff

Having not read ONE but reading plenty of webcomics I hope it's not due to comedic timing working better in a weekly updated one page comic where they add loads of details in each page vs a manga/anime that you read/watch a whole chapter/epuisode at a time (normally) so the oomph is largely lost where it's just a scene or a page from a larger group.
but that wouldn't take into account people who read webcomics later and can just speed through pages, so maybe it's something else.

You weren't kidding about the ARRGH!
I'll watch it. The genetic modification fighting is enough to get me interested. Hope it's not going to be as censored as when the first season aired. Don't recall much from the first season besides the Adolf episodes though.

Look forward to the narrator reading a Wikipedia article about a bug for 5 minutes every episode

I don't blame you for not remembering the name of Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu, as it's a mouthful for people who don't know Japanese. Doesn't even have a handy abbreviation like light novels do! Hopefully that doesn't keep people from watching it, though I assume when Crunchyroll brings it over they'll localize the title some.
It's hilarious that almost the entire trailer is people screaming. As a 1980s OVA given a bad English dub, this could have been entertaining.

That sounds pretty sweet actually. I enjoyed the trivia stuff.

From my perspective Murata is much more inclined to big beautiful spreads while ONE focuses on paneling
