Great...though hope the final true broadcast time is saturday. Guess all my 14 anime are on streaming platforms.
Only show I can think of that funi and crunchyroll had was fairytail...which only had five episodes up at a time on crunchyroll while funi only streams first season and now season 2
I can see that but I don't know that it had to happen that way. I can't help but feel that someone so invested in killing a single person would see it through.
Sleep in the streets? How big is Tokyo? Ok, I probably differ greatly from the average user here since I was in the Army and we had to walk 20+ miles at time so frankly I'm at the point where 10 miles is pretty lolworthy, but I mean, damn, you'd rather stay at your archenemy's place and sleep than walk home? Seriously? I'd need to be PRETTY far from home before that thought crossed my mind. Ok, looked it up, pretty big place. I'd stay at my archenemy's place if I lived on the other side of Tokyo provided it was a hot girl in my case.
But Yuyushiki was terrible!
Viz and Crunchyroll both streamed Bleach! There's been a few others too, Mysterious Girlfriend X was on Crunchyroll and Hulu(through someone else).
its pretyty good so far.

Seen the first 7 episodes, does it get better? Its extremely slow paced. I'm lately into sports anime and this is really not what I was expecting from this genre. I decided to watch this over Ippo New Challenger and I regret it at the moment.

I don't think it's case of her no longer wanting to kill them anymore but rather a case of if she does kill them, she will have no-one left. They are essentially her last remaining link to her homeland. After that she would be stuck in a world where she only knows people through acquaintance with no apparent way to return. It's not a question of distance from home but rather, even if she wanted to she can't leave.
Plus she probably feels slightly conflicted about why she should kill him in this world when by all appearances, he's a model upright citizen who hasn't hurt/killed anyone yet.
I don't know how the anime is but I recently started the manga. It's fantastic, clearly one of the best sports shounen out there.
Waaaaay better than Kuroko's Basket.

Based on the manga its only good during game time, but is great when the four are assembled.
Seraphis Cain
bad gameplay lol
Crunchyroll and Hulu both had Usagi Drop too. CR dropped it though, so now it's just on Hulu.
Aku no Hana 02
Wow this was real good, its clear Nagahama are talented director.. the story flowing well and have weight. But like Ducky said his common sense aren't clear lol. I kinda wish its a clean adaptation, or at least they have better model for Nakamura, Saeki actually look pretty.

Sentai Filmworks shows that arent anime network exclusive are usually on tan, hulu, and crunchyroll
Aniplex is also usually hulu and crunchyroll
Viz hulu and crunchyroll sometimes. (Naruto sd, bleach, shippuden)
I think this is the first for Funi/CR within the same season, while its common practice for everyone else.
Hey there Nagai, you got your Ano Natsu characters in mah Railgun.
this is a bad thing?
Majestic Prince 1-2
Good to see some mecha coming back into the fold. I just hope they can find some sort of shtick to make themselves a bit more...original. I like a bit of over-the-top action every now and then though.
And yay, Hisashi Hirai character designs!! If I weren't so invested in Gundam Seed, I'd probably wouldn't think much of his character designs but what the hell, nostalgia wins.

Technically we saw one last season (the one in pink) though I didn't know that until I looked up stuff on railgun/level 5s and stuff.
Still, this is the first time we've seen another level 5 get any spotlight.
Also I wonder if Railgun S will only cover the Sisters arc or will cover the Daihasei festival arc as well.
It showed Misaki man both in the episode and the OP....which does give a possibiltiy of a Daihaseisai arc but right now the manga hasn't finish it yet.

Is it too much to ask for a gigantic 3 to 4 - cour of madaka box for them to animate the rest now that the manga has ended ?
Yes ? / No ? I still think abnormal was great season.
Yes ? / No ? I still think abnormal was great season.
With both seasons bombed and it didn't increase the manga sales at all. Of course it's asking too much.

That dude should have got run over by a car / mecha.
Will watch when I get home. It better be good for this betrayal!
It would be fitting if he got run over by a CG car. It would be the perfect analogy of why we need more CG artists for anime, so quality doesn't have to suffer because of a lazy 2D animator.
What?! You're terrible! ;_;
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure OVA 1
Because I just can't get enough Jojo.
This has a very different tone. Lacking some of the TV series' self-awareness and cheese, this is more dark and serious. I'm not blown away just yet. But the pacing and strategy of the fights are recognizably Araki.
I like the jail cell fight a lot. Even if it felt pretty low-stakes, it was a lot better than most of the fights in the TV series. The addition of an actual animation budget means that the tactics the fighters use can speak for themselves, instead of having to narrative over barely-animated closeups and panning shots. The fights keep moving, instead of having every punch and counterblow explained. I'm looking forward to seeing that in action once things start getting serious.
Jotaro's mom kinda sucks. She doesn't act much like a Joestar.

Indeed, "quality" will most deffinitely reach new heights with lazy CG animators instead!
im inclined too agree

Starting Bleach after taking a break from One Piece wasn't a very good idea.
The thing I like best about One Piece is how the main characters aren't the good guys who beat everything all the time. When they face someone who is stronger than them, they get the shit beaten out of them and no amount of love and the power of justice is going to help them. Battles all make sense because the relative power levels of the fighters is always pretty clear.
And then there's Bleach.
"For 300 years noone has ever beaten me"
"Oh yeah? Well I trained for a week"
*monster proceeds to not stand a chance*
...
Earn your goddamn badass moments, show, I mean jeez.

So very lewd.
And surprisingly I got a little bored by the final third. I think I wanted a little character development to break up the repeated to death jokes.
I did like the finale and its messing around with conventions.

I want to hear it from DTL's mouth. Even if I disagree, I am sure the actual specifications will be intriguing!
I can't even remember when was the last time I saw a recap episode in a currently-airing anime, and now we are getting three!?
I have a feeling however, this going to be apart of a larger suite of services.

? I can only think of one arc in One Piece where that statement is true.

Is Chaos;Head as bad as what I've heard online? I loved Steins;Gate one of the best anime I've ever seen.

Yes.
Steins;Gate was superb. White Fox nailed it out of the park.
Chaos;Head was downright atrocious. MADHOUSE sucks.
