Barakamon and Space Dandy S2 seems to have been popular too.
From the season that's wrapping up? JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Space Dandy, Haikyuu and Shounen Hollywood are all worth watching depending on what you're looking for.
For the upcoming season, both Gundam shows (Build Fighters Try and G no Reconguista) seem like they'll be worth checking out. Parasyte looks like a potentially amazing horror show if it isn't marred by TV censorship. And there isn't much else other than that.
Are you shitting on Bayonetta? Because I will fight you.
At least in the most recent episode, the production quality matches the writing.
Nozaki-kun. Barakamon. Blue Spring Ride.
Official Chinese site for Tokyo Ghoul says S2 begins in January. ANN sauce.
Thanks. I'm probably pick it up in the next month or so.

Psycho Pass Edit Episode 11 [end]
Probably the definitive version of Psycho Pass to watch and most worthwhile as in sum all the added minor scenes really gave more life to many of the characters and actually worked well to better establish the tone and premise of characters or even their motives at times. For my 4th time through the series, this was the best version.
Kind of wish the ending had

Welp I least expected this to happen. Atleast we will get to see badass Kaneki beating ass.
Though at this point I'll see it as a standalone since it doesn't compare to the manga.
Amagi and whatever Trigger is doing.
Log Horizon Season 2 slated for 25 Episodes: File this under what to watch for the next two seasons.

2 cour?! Awwwwwww yeah!!!!!!!!!
Trying to waifu-ize an arcade stick is certainly lower on my list of priorities.
Actually, is the Hori mini-stick also PC compatible? Would it work with Steam games too?

Ah, yes. The old problem that all clubs in anime has to deal with. Luckily there's a delinquent they can kidnap and force to make a club member! All while showing off their various attack types.

I've always wondered. If I don't care about MMOsat all would I enjoy shows like log horizon?

Psycho Pass is decent but plagued with some bad animation and sometimes tries too hard to sound smart.
NHK isn't for everyone but I liked it. The anime deals with the hikikomori problem in Japan.
Haven't seen GITS so I can't comment.

Tokyo Ghoul - 12
I hope he doesnt go back to mr nice guy and chose to activate white hair power when necessary. I want Rize slowly indoctrinating him, making him turn on his friends
Last episode eh, hopefully there will be more.
3/5 Ghouls - this adaption deserved more work, atleast 24 episodes with less rush and no censoring would probably make this a 4.5/5
So since Jason was the big boss and curbstomped pretty much everyone he faced, is Kaneki one of the absolute strongest Ghouls around now? He went from Charmander directly to Charizard in this evolution

During the first half or so the anime goes really in depth explaining the mechanics of the game. Later it becomes more about political games. Basically the players need some type of order if they're going to continue living in this new world so they establish some form of government and start writing their own laws that don't necessarily conform to the game's rules. NPCs have also become self aware so the players have to find some way to coexist with them peacefully. If you enjoy that type of story you might like Log Horizon.
New PV for Cross Ange, the upcoming Sunrise show with CG mecha, dragons, and girls in really stupid pilot suits.

At least the Nana Mizuki OP sounds nice.

I'm learning how to code them right now!
Alright, the first part sounds boring to me but the second part seems intriguing. Might give it a shot.

Sudden appearance by Robocop.
A rival club appears, and it's all fun and game clubs until somebody gets arrested. Some club backstory, a challenge gets accepted and we learn how the manga the show is based on got made as well.

Fate/Zero 3-5
So I'm gonna be out of it for a while due to me getting my wisdom teeth out. In the mean time I'll just put Strike Witches 2 and War in the pocket on hold for now and attempt to get through what I've been meaning to get through for a while now. At least Season 1, if anything. (Don't worry Mikehattsu, I'll get to Steins;Gate after I finish this and War in the Pocket.)
But with that being said, not much to say for these past 3 episodes but Rider > Everyone else. Though Saber and Archer are kinda cool too.

I forgot to mention in the past episode, the ferris wheel scene was very well directed and with a good tone, though in my opinion it fails at the base, as they acted as if there was something between Twuelve and the girl. If that's the case, the previous episodes failed hard. They had a few scenes together, but nothing as for him to betray Nine.

It's the not so typical school festival episode.
There's maids though, and both classical and modern games. Spiky hair wins over boob power as well.

Really sorry you had to watch your team like that. That was terrible.

This show has successfully ruined Shinon and it can go to hell.
Uraizen seems to really love it. Apparently the controls are pretty interesting and very fast and fluid. Its also popular on Gaf as well.

Locodol - 12 (End?)
Local councils, lesbians, lewdness and locodols. That about sums it up.
I'd say it is one of the better idol shows, but stilliDOLM@STER Xenoglossia is king queen!
The final song was pretty good, but considering it was the one idolesque song in the whole show it would have been rather disappointing if they failed with this one vital aspect.
Since it focuses on the formation of an idol group and the steps they have to take to reach stardom, it's rather similar to Wake Up Girls in that regard. However, since Locodol keeps the plot simple and keeps a feel good feel throughout it is much more successful. Wake Up Girls technically has a much more interesting premise, but because it fails to keep with it after the first handful of episodes it ends up much more disappointing. You can't really be disappointed in Locodol, if you enjoyed the first episode you're likely enjoy the rest as it's pretty much the same thing throughout. Funnily enough, even the endings of the two shows are also quite similar and just as predictable. Well I say ending, despite this apparently being the final episode, there's a 13th episode mentioned in the preview. So I'm guessing BD special or someone somewhere cocked things up when they said this was a 12 episode show.
Negative marks for the whole "oh no I'm fat, but in reality not" schtick. Then again I don't suspect teenage girls are the target audience for this show so maybe they don't have to worry about encouraging negative body image stigmas. Oh and the eye catches (which is where the lewdness comes in) were rather unnecessary since the rest of the show didn't really have that tone.
Still, I know what I'm going to be suggesting to my local council tomorrow.

That's why I have the question mark. Places like MAL and Hummingbird list it as having 12 episodes so this 13th episode is a bit of a mystery.
Soukou no Strain 11-13 + Final Thoughts
Sara had a goal set out at the start of the show, and she accomplished it with a minimal amount of fuss. My exposure to mecha series is probably not as great as other genres, but this was overall average. Slightly harder sci-fi than I'm used to, and adapting classic children's literature into a space story does offer up some interesting ideas about how text is interpreted. I liked seeing a mecha series with a female protagonist (though Lagrange is still my favorite), and it gives me a good point of comparison for when Cross Ange begins.
Now, the next show on my backlog is one I've been wanting to check out for a long time.

I know it's a BD bonus episode, but I'm not sure if it's actually airing on TV or not.

That's what I assumed, but it's rather odd to give it an episode preview. Usually OVAs don't get one.
I forgot there was an OVA announced and that the awa² girls were supposed to be in it. So I'm guessing it's for the OVA

It's the fight of the century!
The game club gets a name it already had, Kenji gets kidnapped (this time by a rival gang), and then a dark secret about Roka is revealed.

Fate/Zero - 6-7
I love how since Caster and his JYB-voiced Master (yes I'm watching the dub) are essentially breaking all the rules by doing whatever the hell they want
. The overseer essentially has to get the other Servants and Masters to team up and get rid of them.
Makes for a nice unexpected turn, seeing how these people are supposed to be fighting against each-other and not working together. Although only Saber and Lancer have shown up, I expect Rider and Archer to join the fray fairly soon and kick some ass.

So I got around to looking at the new season of anime in depth. Aside from returning shows psycho pass and fate stay night, the following new comers have at least some of my attention (aka I will for sure be checking them out)
Cross Ange: Tenshi to Ryuu no Rondo
Akatsuki no Yona
Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso
Donten ni Warau
Amagi Brilliant Park
Magic Kaito 1412 (debateable if it is a new comer as it has had 12 special eps already but w/e)
Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji
Nanatsu no Taizai
Trinity Seven
Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu
Ore, Twintails ni Narimasu.
Madan no Ou to Vanadis
with from the new comers I expect
Donten ni Warau
Akatsuki no Yona
Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu
Trinity Seven
Nanatsu no Taizai
to be the five anime I enjoy the most.
There are a couple other shows such as terra formars and world trigger that I have some interest in and might check out, but with the american tv season starting up as well I might not have time.
Overall the season doesn't really seem to have much in the way of shows that scream they should be good, but there are quite a few shows that should be watchable which is good because I am losing almost all of my currently airing shows I am watching in the next two weeks ><;

No there are far more stronger opponents than Kaneki. Also the white hair is due to extreme stress that he endured through for those 10 days of torture. So it really isn't a powerup. Trust me if this adaption had been adapted faithfully it would of been a 5/5. Since the source material is excellent.

Yesterday Persona 4 was delayed like 12 hours on CR, and today INVADERS of the ROKUJYOMA is delayed. I hope delays aren't going to be a problem again. Not that long of a delay, so not a big deal though.
