Hero Bank Episode 26
Excellent anime staff finally on the same page as the fans by declaring the actual true otp for the series and even animating it
.
Glad my prediction for what the conclusion would be turned out completely wrong.

I hope we keep the same ED. "my friend my friend".

New antagonist looks pretty cool there in the preview

Fun episode that had sweet scenes like the Island calling him to cheer him on.
Handa's mom looks pretty young as well

Minako was way late in the series. Far too late for my liking. Show was almost over and they were like "oh shit put Sailor V in there somewhere"
Anime is saved and has been saved for years.
They are really bad. Very forgettable designs.
I've compiled a list of shows this season which are of at least some interest to me. Split them into categories, linked trailers for each show, along with a short comment. Maybe it'll be helpful for those looking for something to watch! 
Kids
Tribe Cool Crew - Trendy dance anime with kids. Stylish designs. Might appeal to those who are looking for dance/music shows without all girl casts and idols.
Mysterious Joker - Heist gag action comedy for kids. Has 2D animated car chases. Looks fun.
Gundam Build Fighters Try - If you didn't watch the first season and aren't looking forward to this new season you're a criminal.
Ronia the Robber's Daughter - Goro Miyazaki's TV anime adaptation of the beloved classic. Ghibli is helping with design production, but the show is a full CG anime by Polygon Pictures.
2Dark2Edgy
Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works - Ufotable, huge production values, will likely have amazing animation and music, too bad it's still F/SN.
Rage of Bahamut Genesis - Huge blockbuster dark fantasy series funded by f2p mobile success, from the director of Tiger & Bunny. Looks great.
Garo -Hono no Kokuin- - Anime spin-off of the dark fantasy tokusatsu series. Features shiny CG armored hero knights fighting demons.
Psycho-Pass 2 - Tune in to find out if after another year and a half on the job, Akane still needs someone to explain everything to her.
Action
Parasyte - The Maxim - Adaptation of a well regarded horror action manga about alien parasites invading Earth. If Madhouse can do as good a job as they did with Hunter x Hunter, this should be great. It's airing on NTV late at night, so there should be no censorship concerns either.
The Seven Deadly Sins - The director of Blue Exorcist returns with another shounen action adaptation. I can already hear Cosmicblizzard's pants tearing apart.
Chaika the Coffin Princess: Avenging Battle - Chaika, good. Watch more, please. BONES, love very much!
Drama/Comedy/Romance
Amagi Brilliant Park - Kyoto Animation adaptation from the Hyouka team. Will probably not be anything like Hyouka. But it does have Bonta-kun as a mascot character. Because you know, FMP fans haven't suffered enough.
Shirobako - The director of Joshiraku and Girls und Panzer is making a show about girls working in the anime industry making anime. How could anyone not watch this?!
Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso - New noitaminA show which actually looks like a noitaminA show. Romance, coming of age, music passion. Hope it's good.
Inou Battle Within Everyday Life - Trigger will probably not save anime with this light novel adaptation about students who have special powers but form a club to hang out since they can't do anything with them.

Gundam Reconguista in G - See the OP.

I just realized that the princess is in the OP wearing what seems to be a class attire. Considering how Crusty is reaching her, will she be leaving with them?
Ruby still can't find his place in his JRPG party. Meanwhile the not-ready-for-dungeons level trainees are taking care of giant enemy crabs,got a good laugh out of that.
The natives are definitely interested in their technology. Especially since one flat out asked for a boat.

I decided to give this a second chance, since S2 is coming, and I guess it's ok-ish... like a poor man's GitS. I can't quite understand why it's not clicking with me though. It might be the forgettable characters (I still couldn't name half the cast if I was asked, or the lack of sensical explanations for the criminals' motivations, or the overly in-your-face references and the characters that exist only to deliver them. Will keep watching and see if it gets better eventually.
Tribe Cool Crew 1
This was cute! the dance scenes ruin it for me though; awful CGI. And the female MC's design is horrible when she's dancing. I like her more reserved style at the beginning of the episode better male MC is alright. The artstyle kinda reminds me of Medabots.
I'm thinking I should try Gundam Build Fighters soon to see if I'll join you guys in watching S2.

I feel satisfied with GBF, if Fellini is back maybe I watch but right now just not in the mood.
Shirobako hopefully is good for comedy of the season.
I don't care about fantasy/edgy and romance anime much these days. All the sci-fi have meh premises. I want to avoid adaptations of on going manga too, seldom ever end well. Maybe try bahamut.
Too bad there is no trigger and kyoto anime this season.

Did anime ever need saving? Was there ever an extended period of time where studios were folding because of a weak year/season?
Is this an attempt to troll me?

Ashita no Nadja 30-31 (Greece Arc)
Physician, heal thyself. Not so much an arc as two episodes that happened to take place in the same location, but there was undeniably an element of tragedy running through both of them. The situation of the Harcourt brothers doesn't have a happy ending, and Nadja is understandably confused by her starry-eyed knight being
The failure of noblesse oblige, and money in general, also ran through these episodes. Money can't always save an orphanage, and thinking back to the end of the France episodes and how Nadja wanted to get enough money to turn Applefield into Disney World certainly casts a different light on things.
A clown. A doctor. A father. A man with a sad backstory. Abel's episode was pretty well done. The kid in the wheelchair never felt like too obvious a grasp at sympathy - Stefan's a pretty well adjusted kid.
is also committing crimes, and doing so towards a noble end, so the questions are being raised. The gap between the rich and the poor. How far people are willing to go for love, and for their families.
Though even with all of this, one mustn't, and can't, forget that the show was in the 8:30 AM time slot on TV Asahi, with everything that entails. In the past few episodes, Nadja's got her umbrella (for sale), her typewriter (for sale), a kaleidoscope from Keith (for sale), her music box, her brooch, the baton, and the OP was slightly retooled, and the eyecatches entirely retooled, in order to show off the red-bedecked merchandise that Bandai was intent on selling to girls in 2003. I have no problems with this since it's normal to me at this point, but I have read that the show struggled to pull in the ratings/sales that Bandai/Toei wanted during its lifetime, which may explain the sudden rush of Nadja goods.

Abel committing a crime, stealing medicine, to save his own family and a village from an epidemic. Aside from my first response being "that's like Ziggy in PR RPM," the layers of moral complexity in this show keep piling on.

Saturdays... No Aldnoah/Captain Earth/Space Dandy (dumb fun day)
Sundays... No Haikyuu
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO WATCH
When does the fall season start? Next week?
Also, I started watching Katanagatari, as I can now catch up on my backlog of stuff. It's surprisingly witty, has a unique sense of humor/cuteness, that contrasts well against some of the dark moments the series has so far. I'm halfway through and thoroughly enjoying it so far.

I'm surprised the OP or ED haven't changed yet. I guess it won't since this is really just one long arc.
As I thought, the princess would go with them. It seems to be to find troops to help fight off the goblins. Not having Shiroe there to negotiate with the nativss seems like a misplay though.

Blade Dance 12 + Final Thoughts
NGNL was fun, Magical Warfare was a trainwreck but an interesting one, and Dragonar was the lewdest of those five that were chosen for adaptation. Blade Dance was the most middle-of-the-road. It's a fantasy action romantic comedy, I knew just what I was getting. The girls were cute, the battles were alright, and it didn't leave much of an impression, but I'd rather something like this than something like this over something that looks better but is uglier underneath. Claire was cute, and I felt like Rinslet never got to do that much in comparison to the other girls. It was completely average in every way, and that's hardly the worst thing an anime could be.

Electric Town indeed. The technology has risen a lot since we last saw it. Granted, it might be, because it looks like a festival is happening, but still. The place is so incredibily lively despite it being late night/before dawn.
The princess also notes that nobility has no meaning outside of the Natives since everyone else seems quite intelligent. Kinda surprised she got about half of Akihabara to help out. People must've been bored.

By the end, the mecha weren't necessarily the focus of the series. It was more of a horror/psychological series. A nice fit for Okada's writing style (I am looking forward to more Wixoss, unironically), but an odd choice for Junichi Sato. He excels with healing series and magical girl works, having him on something like this is a little weird. The series was definitely a slow burn, but around episode 10 or so I actually became interested in it because of what was controlling the robots and the history and effects of the Lightless Realm. Way too bleak for it to be my favorite anything, but it has some interesting ideas, even if the pacing took a while for them to come to the surface.

Honoka finds out that she can't control the weather after all.
It's an episode focused on Rin. She gets to be leader and everything. The mirroring of the situation when they made Hanayo take a step forward was a nice touch.
