Sakurasou 1
This was actually somewhat entertaining until themain girlcardboard cutout showed up and ruined everything.
I still need to watch Robotics Note and Psycho Pass, but I've watched most everything I wanted to.
K - Probably one of the most unintelligible things I've ever seen, which is saying a lot considering we're talking about anime here. The color filter didn't help. Dropped.
Girls und Panzer - Cute girls doing tank things. I got what I expected. I'll keep watching for now.
Btooom! - Whole thing was kind of meh, but I'll give it some more episodes.
Chuunibyou - I feel bad for loving this, but I do.
Jojo - Do I need to say it? Awesome as hell.
Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun - Might be my show of the season so far. I absolutely love everything about this. The chemistry between the two main characters is great.
Magi - First episode made changes I really, really did not like. Hopefully they don't keep doing that.
From the New World - Not sure what I think of it so far, but I'm interested enough to keep following it.
Sukitte Iinyao - I'm indifferent to shoujo, but honestly enjoyed this a lot. It also made me start reading the manga.
Medaka Box Abnormal - If you don't give me animated Ajimu after that troll opening, Gainax, I'm going to rage like I've never raged before.
Ebiten is set to broadcast every Wednesday at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time for its premium members, Ebiten will be available to Crunchyroll’s audience in the following territories: USA, Canada, and South Africa.

Who is Ajimu and why is he so great?
What's the deal with Medaka Box ?
I only read two volumes so far so... I don't mind being spoiled.
7th is the anime equivalent of a graphics whore confirmed.David Production's Jojo is uglier than any Toei show; no joke. David Production shows always look the cheapest of the cheap to me.
He got me into Gurren Lagann. He ain't bad. Well, wasn't.He was never there!
Maybe they'll do what you said in the manga thread (that was you, right?) where she'll just migrate over from the manga.to rest after "dying"
She.
She's great because she's a major troll and quite possibly the most broken character in all of fiction.

Chuunibyou 02:
Better technically than the first episode thanks to some especially lovely backgrounds and outstanding sakuga, but I'm still held back from being able to fully enjoy the material being presented because of Rikka. She's not cute--she's functionally insane and in desperate need of help, and it's frustrating to see that the people in her life aren't nearly forceful enough in demanding that she return to reality. Take into consideration the number of times that Rikka is smacked, bopped, or hit in the head with a blunt object in response to her behavior and the situation feels downright sad. I know that this is supposed to be a lighthearted comedy, but I can't get my mind off of how fucked up the situation would be if it were actually happening to real people.
I desperately hope that Rikka is ultimately challenged on her behavior instead of dragging Yuuta back into his shameful old ways. If the status quo is maintained, Rikka is just going to become more and more insufferable.
Whaaaaaat? Rikka is ADORABLE. The fact that she's insane only makes her even better.
You say that like it actually means something, when it really doesn't, especially in context. I can make a character and say "THIS IS GOD, HE HAS 2X THE ABILITIES OF EVERYONE ELSE COMBINED" but that really is meaningless, and that's pretty much all Ajimu is.
Excellent. I like troll characters. Is she more of a troll than Shiranui?
Nope, she's not adorable at all. It's like watching some 50 year old lady try to act all cutesy and teeney boppy, and you're just looking on in utter revulsion. Except worse.
What is it like having no joy in your life?
She's not insane (in either the adorable or the pitiable way), she's just dumb and young.Whaaaaaat? Rikka is ADORABLE. The fact that she's insane only makes her even better.
what is like being forced to pretend that everything "cutesy" is actually good?
Arriving by goat doesn't violate school policy!
I assume you got to the genre shift if you read 2 volumes. Well it's more of that, only it escalates a lot further to the point of being ridiculous.
BY ridiculous , you mean "excellent" , right ?
Not really. It is entertaining at times, but never excellent. The one time is starts to get really good, Kumagawa ruins everything.
Kumagawa is the reason the manga got good (and somewhat popular). It also dropped in quality once Kumagawa stopped being the focus.

As a bonus for joining, have this gif of material that I don't remember seeing in the source material at all that I made to further incite your wanting-ness to watch this.
Miyako with a tan?!!
I like it because it shows the issues that people face when they need to choose when to grow up. For some people it's harder than others, which is why I liked the first episode (because it showed the contrast between those people). The age range is really good for depicting that too.My opinion toward her would be less harsh if she ever exhibited any ability to drop her pretenses and act normally. As it stands, she either lacks self-awareness regarding her own behavior or just doesn't care, and neither of those says good things about her mental state.

No, that's the problem, it doesn't show those issues. If it did, it might actually be good.
I feel the same way. It's decent so far, the action is good, it has Hanazawa Kana as a recurring character (who has a cute personality and a hime cut!). I can't help but think about everyone's comments about the source and the dialogue is just becoming harder to ignore.I have this sinking feeling that I'm going to drop Zetsuen about halfway through the season. I like it so far, and I have no logical reason to think I would drop it, but the thought is there in the back of my head man.
