True, but this is especially bad.
It might not be the production team's fault, but it seems like the show won't finish its run on tv.
That's awful.

Now I am done watching His and Her Circumstances, I am watching Blue Seed. Never heard about the show and where I am right now, I am still interested in watching this show. It have this feel like 80s anime show with gritty stuff you see at that time. Also, it have this hentai vibe for some reason as I watching it (like Urotsukidōji). Well, hope the show get interesting.

Is Umaru-chan worth finishing? I think I saw up to episode 4 but totally forgot about it afterwards.

It's a pretty comfy show. It has its funny moments too. Is it a must watch? No. But if you have already watched a few episodes and are remotely interested in finishing it, you won't leave disappointed

I would imagine an episode of South Park is much less complicated to coordinate production of than an episode of a typical anime, and so it's much easier to get stuff out on a consistent basis. You can't make an episode of anime in a week, unless perhaps it's a super low budget 2-minute thing.
It's bad, but not unprecedented. There are several examples of shows which aren't able to finish their normal TV run and have their final episodes delayed for months: Bakemonogatari, Girls und Panzer, and Blood Blockade Battlefront, for instance. Anime producers consistently squeeze the amount of time given to productions as much as they possibly can - and even if you start with a good lead time, unforeseen circumstances can lead to the production partially falling apart as it gets closer to the end (e.g., Yamato 2199).
Well did you enjoy the first four?

Yeah like I said it's a rather extreme example but it was the first to come to mind since I watched the documentary about South Park's production a week or so ago

Hotarubi no Mori e/Into the Forest of Fireflies' Light;
So I picked up and watched this short film on a whim and wad happy I did in the end since it's a bitter sweet love story in the vein of 5cm. It was short, but the story was well told and we'll worth the time watching.

Kite Collection Blu-ray.....hmm.....is anyone really care that this movie is worth the Blu-ray upgrade. Also, is this upscale version type Blu-ray as if it`s then I stick with my DVD.
Animator Expo 33 - Ragnarok
That was pretty fun. Glad the robots were 2D rather than CG since we have one more CG short coming up anyway. It wasn't really what I was expecting, but what they were going for here is pretty creative. The designs are really evocative of Pacific Rim though. I wonder if that's a result of the natural design process of making "national" themed mecha, or if Izubuchi was asked to specifically reference that style. The ending theme was sogood.

I didn't hate it but I also didn't find it that remarkable either. It was a good show to watch during breakfast before work if I woke up early enough.
Well the show is more of the same so ask yourself if you want to watch 8 more.

Animator Expo - Ragnarok
That wasn't very good, to be honest. Nice animation. Robots are very reminiscent of Pacific Rim although slightly goofier in design, the Russian one is extremely close to Cherno Alpha and the American one looks like Striker Eureka. But I'm confused as to why they chose to just have generic music throughout the entire thing as opposed to actual sound effects.

Thanks, anyways please tell me you read Tokyo Ghoul from the beginning before reading Re. Like if you came from Root A it would be really really hard to understand the plot since they pretty much skipped everything.
Also from what I found out is that Studio Pierrot/staff completely skipped 95% of the anime original draft the author gave them. Which is why the final product was crap.

Well that's fine but I wasn't feeling it.
Yeah i think it would have worked better as a news report instead with sound effects, but that's the explanation for what they were going for!

Could have been better yeah, but considering 2015's output of mecha things as of late, I'll take it.
The music was nice, but yeah, it doesn't really fit with a bunch of giant robots fighting. Some sound effects would have been nice too.
Oh well, I can always mute the thing and put a JAM-Project song over it instead. That should make it more awesome.

I did, the manga was vastly superior. The first season of the anime was actually pretty good, but after seeing how messy the second one was, I just continued reading the manga from there. I'm enjoying Re a lot, the fact that it is released weekly only makes it better. AoT was monthly and after a few chapters I gave up because I kept forgetting the plot.
Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies, episode 4
So this is essentially a very long prologue and first part of the final case. The way it ends... what could it mean?
So it is nice to control a Phoenix Wright who is much more experienced. He is a lot less willing to take crap from prosecutors and is more composed.

School Live ep 12 (final)
That was pretty good.
In conclusion, it was a cool send off for a more than decent series. Definitely one the shows worth watching this season.
That was pretty good.
A nice and happy ending after I expected the absolute worst, but still there was room for some really emotional moments.
School-Live! 12
A strong beginning and ending hampered by too much slice of life filler and fanservice in the middle. It was onto something, but it went in different directions for some reason. Still, the good stuff was really good overall. Despite the middle stuff it was probably my favorite anime of the season. Time to read the manga.
Nice speech by Yuki actually. And it's a better way of dealing with the zombies than smacking them around. Taroumaru's final death was sadder than I thought it would be. This show does know how to tug the heartstrings when it wants to. There's a real sense of relief here even though they should be dreading having to leave school. Fitting I suppose. Not very subtle with the graduation thing considering they're headed to either college or work. Welp, there's Kei. Solid ending overall.

I accidentally skipped episode 6 of Nisemonogatari and ended up watching half of 7. Woops. Never made that mistake before. It was going alright until Kaiki said that Arararagi took half of Karen's pain, then i was sure I missed something.
Anyway, how can Monogatari get away with 27 minute long episodes?

Enjoy the ride. Be sure to share your comments and observations in the Manga OT along with observations contrasting it with the anime.

Started off strong, lost itself in SoL tropey-land with fan service, and finally picked itself up and ended strong. All in all it was a bit of an inconsistent experience, the show would have been much better without the unnecessary shtick that took place in a lot of the episodes. But whatever, it was entertaining.
Not sure if the ending was made for people to go pick up the manga, or if it is an indication that it will have a second season.

Taroumaru's death was the worst. I can't deal with animals dying. Such a low blow. :'(

Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam - 7-10
I'm really liking the build up here.
The big OH SHIT moment of the show hasn't happened yet but I can feel it inching closer every time I hear about the Titans doing nasty stuff, like capturing Fa's parents. Things are proceeding slowly, but smoothly.
Also: Zeta Char > MSG Char.

Akagami - 7
Non Non Biyori Repeat - 7

Seiyu's Life - on hold
Ranpo - dropped after 1
Clasroom Crisis - dropped after 1

Ushio to Tora - dropped after 1
Aoharu x Kikanjuu - dropped after 2
Godeater - dropped after 2
Joukamachi no Dandelion - dropped after 3

And then looking at next season I think my watchlist is only 2 titles.
Gives me more time for manga and light novels I guess.

One day, the people drawing Arslan will understand how faces, particularly noses, work.
One day.
One day.
Hmm, the only show I have watched from this season is Ore Monogatari and I love it. If there are more entertaining shows than that then I am set.
Planning to watch Working and Non Non Byori since I loved previous seasons.
Forgot about Working. Didn't watch that as the prior seasons are still on my backlog. Same with Durarara.
Ore Monogatari I liked, but started to get bored in the middle. But it picked up a bit in the last third. My scoring is kind of particular though as I tend to be pretty hard in some senses, I rarely give out 8s or high (according to MAL of my 400 odd completed anime, less than 40 are about 7 and there is yet to be a 10 and only 2 9s (just Spice and Wolf and Natsume). On the other its has to be really bad to go below a 4. I really have a giant bell curve.
You should. Its just a happy show, it may not progress much (depending what you expect from it) but its just too cute and reminds me of Brakamon
in the sense of there is no bad character and every charioteer is so damn lovable
You didn't even try Overlord? I just found it strange, considering your avatar.
