Looks like I'll check out:
Natsume Yuujin Chou San (after I watch the earlier seasons)
Usagi Drop
NO.6
Ikoku Meiro no Croisee
Kamisama Dolls
Kami-sama no Memo-chou
And maybe Idolmaster just for kicks (hopefully at least there's some good music).

Eh, at that point the series is mostly over. I just wish they'd just have an OVA or something to wrap it up in anime form.zeroshiki said:
Well, no one really hooks up in Marimite either... and only one of the main characters outwardly identifies as lesbian.flawfuls said:

Astarotte​ no Omocha! 1
Gonna need to see more to make a judgement. A little funny. I like how nonchalantly the glasses succubus says "your mother sucked like a billion cocks at your age." (paraphrased)

Yep. A lot of gay anime fans don't even like standard BL, "bara" (nsfw) is more likely, but it's basically just gay hentai.

Depends on what you want to watch.Jerk said:
Hanasaku Iroha is the clear winner though.

Of what I've watched:
Steins;Gate: Interesting yet confusing. Seems to suffer from some disjointed story telling and apparently rushed through the intro of the VN. Still gonna watch more though.
Kaiji: Still fuckin awesome seeing Kaiji claw his way out of the pits of despair. As long as they don't fuck up anything else like they did with the intro, should be a contender for show of the season.
Lotte no Omocha!: It's all right, but...
Dororon Enma-kun Meeramera: Funny, hot blooded, and a little disturbing. Another contender for show of the season.
Nichijou: Boring, but some people seem to think it's funny. Typical slice of life comedy.
Sket Dance: Entertaining and a good adaptation of the funny source material. Should stay good.
Tiger & Bunny: Surprisingly good. An interesting albeit not entirely original take on the superhero genre. An incredibly likable and relatable protagonist.
Hen Zemi: Kind of funny I guess. Only 12 minutes though, so not much of a commitment.
30-sai no Hoken Taiiku: Better than Hen Zemi.
Dog Days: I like it, but not many other people will. Episode 2 has good action at least.
X-Men: Good, but not as good as Duck is making it out to be.

Trapeze 5
After a somewhat disjointed first episode, Trapeze has been getting into a good stride. The writing does a good job at making me care for the patient of the episode, and the animation does a good job at visualizing their issues. At first I wasn't sure what the point of the injections were besides random sexiness, but it seems to be just a colorful way of stripping the patient down to his true animal self. It's formulaic, but it's well-executed and presents widely varied situations so who cares?

Digimon Xros Wars: The Evil Death Generals and the Seven Kingdoms 1:
Finally. After how bland the show was early on, I never would have imagined that a month long break would have me chomping for more, but they've really managed to turn this series around unlike just about anything I can remember.
The new season manages to get a lot right. They set up the new powers in the Digital World and showcase how much things have gone to shit since Taiki's departure, and you really get a sense for that when Kiriha is despairing and tells Taiki that he's just come back to die. This episode was mostly just set up for what's to come, but it managed to be very effective at that. I'm disappointed that I have to wait until next episode for Nene-san, though.

Maria+Holic. Honestly, this show stopped being funny around episode 3 of last season but I went ahead and watched the third, pretty lame but the superior girl, Ryūken Ishima, had a bad ass entrance.
Dog Days, ok, I hate Dresden now. This show sucks. I don't even think prancing around and tapping people on the back counts as action but whatever it is there's a lot of it. But sure, the cat girl was alright although that kind of pisses me off as I was hoping they'd make dogs superior for once. Fucking bastards. I still think the dogs should have won in Asobi no Iku Yo. But it's better than Nichijou. Anyways, so what nation's going to bring the girl that actually beat our hero in that competition in the human world over as their hero? We know it's coming, think it'll be the cats or an as of yet unknown country?
Fuck yes, Chiaki Omigawa reporting in. If someone's brought over the American sitcom the Nanny to Japan I hope she got to voice Fran's character, and if not they need to re-release it with her doing the nanny's voice just because.Aigis said:This isn't a con

That recap kind of ruins season 1, or at least the finale. Don't think I'd enjoy it nearly as much if I got spoiled. It was legitimately unpredictable.
