They all suck. I watch the YuruYuri♪♪ OP when it actually runs. Lagrange OP is also at least watchable too.

Of the new summer shows I'm watching, it's got to be Make My Day! by a mile. Crossing Field is also good.
Including new OPs for ongoing shows, then BravBlue (Eureka Seven AO) and Mikansei Stride (Hyouka) are up there as well.

The season has not many great openings imo. Though the Binbougami Ga!, Joshiraku and Jinrui openings are kind of catchy and the full version of the Rinne no Lagrange opening is great.
80% of the Nasuverse is made from Nasu's notes. No joke.
You'll see character in Tsukihime talking about vampires and suddenly you find yourself on a Type Moon forum reading discussion about power-levels and planets.
If you are looking for a good anime-Nasuverse product you may want to check Kara no Kyoukai.
http://myanimelist.net/anime/2593/Kara_no_Kyoukai_1:_Fukan_Fuukei/
But keep in mind it's the least discussed Nasuverse product and the one that contain less informations about it. (Mostly stuff on the MYoDP iirc)
Tsukihime is anyway a good entry if you want at least the basic knowledge about the True Ancestors and the likes, but always keep in mind it can be a little hard to get into (The novel! The manga is very good though. Even Nasu himself recognized that. ). FSN gives you a lot of insight about Counter Guardians, Servants and how magic works, but i hate FSN.
I hate Nasuverse.
Eeeehhh none really but I've started to take to the Sword Art Online OP lately.
If you're going to watch this, then I might tag along for the experience.
Utakoi, Binbougami ga, and Joshiraku all have amazing OPs that I never skip.

Based off music only, Binbougami ga!, Horizon II, Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate, Natsuyuki Rensezvous, Nobuna and Tari Tari.
Binbougami ga, muv luv, and like the first 15 seconds of Sword Art Online's OP.

Giraffe moe~

Yea I've seen KnK and gone through the VN for FSN. The people at the con were talking about geasses or some other nonsense and whether Souren's ability could override that. So I figured there's probably a good amount of info that I'm lacking in Tsukihime.

Hot moms everywhere.
Also... teary.
And some ending/transition.
Wonder what's next?

Oh.
Then yeah check Tsukime manga. (or novel if you have time) Though you pretty much got a grasp of Shiki's ability from KnK.
Not interested. Stopped watching Bleach after Soul Society and I only remember 3 good things.
-The amazing conclusion to Soifon v. Yoruichi.
-Kenpachi is awesome for being the embodiment of KISS.
-The writing and cinematography around Gin is pretty entertaining.
4, if you count the usual stuff about variety and attractiveness of the Bleach females.
My favorite OP so far is the one for Binbougami Ga.
Its not THAT awful. But then again I did marathon and fully enjoy Fate Stay night so I obviously cannot be trusted in these matters.
Don't we usually praise a show when it exceeds the source material?
As I recall, they pretty much stood around a street corner at night talking about shit the entire series.
Makoto is a ladies man.
Tsukihime 2
Hey, a good looking character but only from this angle.
I know even less about what is going on after this episode. There's like no successful building of tension in this either.
For my sanity, i shall pretend you are reading the novel.
Chris-chan? Is Sonichu related to this?
One would think that at some point seeing someone exposed to School Days would stop being hilarious but one would be completely wrong. This never gets old.
Also, Cajunator, I believe this guy is not entirely aware of the show's, er... proceedings and your post seems somewhat spoilery to me. Could you perhaps edit it a bit?
You're a glutton for punishment.
Eh? Fine I changed it but I have no idea what you mean by that because its kind of obvious up to that point how Makoto is.

I don't agree with this at all. Some people can't get into certain genres no matter how good they are.

Accel World's Burst the Gravity by Ultima is my favorite one both songwise and animation wise, so many good scenes in it, Taku and the other dude fighting it out, and Taku and Haru and the power of believing in each other
Kingdom's OP is also good. Pride - Nothing's Carved in Stone
Hagure Yuusha no Estetica has a catchy one. "Change the world show my heart!" (0:46 is the start of the best part), Faylan never does any bad anime songs.
Ah and Muv Luv on the song alone.
None of the other OP's are that good, I guess their just typical anime. Kokoro Connect is starting to grow on me.
Sailor Moon S 106
So finally, we get some backstory on Michiru and Haruka, and find out why they act the way they do.
At least there was plenty of Yuri to make up for it.
You were asking for it, Usagi

It's because they're still in their teenage emo phase. I bet they listen to Linkin Park in their free time.

School Days - 9
Oh lawd. Things are getting...complicated and the MC is
This can only end poorly, can't it? Also, I feel awful for Taisuke. Just totally out of touch, unable to navigate, and generally unlucky when it comes to women, reminds me of myself when I was younger.

buildin' dat harem!
Accel World 2-4
So far so good.
Really interested in this world setup. Kuroyukihime continues to be super hnnngh and the whole
thing is kind of kinky. This show is pretty unique and I really like it. I find it interesting how easily characters can
.
Seems like it could be highly dangerous.

More Sailor Moon S 106
The picture reveal at the end was nice. I'll give them that much.
I guess the fact that Uranus and Neptune now have proper transformations means that they'll join Usagi soon. Yay. I think I would like them more if they were the protagonists and the story was told from their point of view, as opposed to just being side characters.

Think he's already passed the switch of makoto from dude to sex god.
Oh goody.
I wouldn't say emo but a lot of the inconsistency you took issue with early on struck me as them selling a false bravado they didn't quite buy into themselves. The genuine characterization was when they were alone and often that was brief before they had to put on their game faces so to speak.
They're almost wasted as supporting cast.
If you like girls with nice legs and awesome reaction faces, go for it.
Yeah thats why I didnt really think what I said was much of a spoiler lol.
I changed it anyway from vague to...more vague.
How can you watch something that does not exist?
I'm adapting it myself as I go along.
Oh it definitely exists alright.
That song is pretty catchy.
Well,
I did say that they were pretty obviously putting up a facade for themselves to make themselves feel better about what they're doing, that doesn't mean I have to like it, though. 
And I'm beginning to like them more over the past few episodes as they've slowly been admitting (even if only to themselves) their weaknesses.

I would watch a spin off with them as the main characters.
My point was that regardless of if he already knows about Makoto's way with the ladies or not, outright going "
lol yeah, he gonna bang all them gurls!
But whatever, go ahead and do your thing. I'll drop it now.
