So hey, I'm starting this.
It's not bad so far. Introduces our main character, shows off some problem, have the adorable mascots be adorable mascots for a bit.
I can see the humor around and it does seem nice to see the girl gain the confidence that she needs.

One Piece 2-25
I haven't had a chance to post my impressions, but it's been pretty slow so far. It's just basic introductions and back-story for the characters up to this point. I'm really liking the world, characters, and plot so far despite the fact it seems a bit childish. Things seem to be picking up though as of these last 2 episodes. Is there any guide to avoiding bad or pointless filler?
Oh, and Hawk-Eye Mihawk is seriously bad ass.

I don't really follow light novel stuff that closely, but I think it's around average for its genre, if not below average. It's nothing popular like the Monogatari series, SAO, or Mahouka.

Most harem genre series seem pretty shitty compared to the likes of monogatari, like really shitty.

Harems are like one of the worst genres anyway, so that's not really surprising.
Better off having light harem elements honestly.

They threw a wrench on my assumption in the previous post. Damn you, Takeuchi.
That's quite the mood whiplash. We go from wacky maid café hijinx to yuri unfulfillment to child kidnapping to black holes. Heavy stuff.

And this is coming from the guy who complained about random singing in anime!
Hmmm...
Actually let's do that.
Agreed.
Catgirls can just lick themselves clean though.
Notice the inverse gradient bar used for effect? Also featured in HapCha!
Possibly the funniest thing all day.
I wish I had something for you. My impressions from the time aren't particularly insightful (and the pictures broke for some weird reason), and I don't think there's too much else to chew on. If I wanted to write something good, I'd have to watch the whole thing again. Maybe Jexhius has something?
There's an OVA episode that adds a little, but I don't think it'll help you too much.

Pyscho Pass is a bad show with bad art and bad writing that tries to get by on the uniqueness of it's setting when really it's just syfy for beginners in terms of depth and quality.

Well, this turnedTL real quick.
And this show's back on the chopping block. One more episode.
Oh god I can't believe you're actually watching that show. Who convinced you to go through such a horrible thing?

Look, it's up to you. Shiki eventually gets going and when it gets going it really ramps up but the problem with the series was that it took a zillion episodes to get there. Considering you've already invested so much time you could just get to that point, all things considered. Dropping it around 4 would have been just as wise if you disliked the turgid pacing.

Gravity winning GAF's movie of the year award makes up for it not winning anime of the year. lol

I can understand after the latest episode lol
Yeah, I wish I had dropped it early on, but I kept hearing promises of how good it gets. The thing that really is turning me off are the characters, as I've not really enjoyed any of them thus far, yet the show keeps throwing lame character development my way.
As for the pacing, I'm over halfway through the series now, and there have only been a couple of good episodes. Even if the rest of the series is awesome, that's still a failing grade in most every reckoning.

I wanted to vote for Frozen. Best Disney movie ever since the introduction of Disney. And freedom.

Sandra Bullock isn't moe enough to carry an anime.
Well you're almost out of the woods so hopefully it will pay off. And when you're done can you tell me how it ends? I think I finished the show but I can't really remember what happened.

Here you go (DO NOT READ ANYTHING ELSE ON THAT SITE).
And yes, the first 40 episodes or so are pretty much character introductions, while after that they just go crazy with the world and things just escalate a ton.

Thank you!
Can't wait till the legitimate plot starts.
Plot happens, but like... the first sequence of plot is more like a saga comprised of different arcs... actually, that's probably a general statement, but it works pretty well here.

Madhouse..... sure
I personally thought Madhouse did a great job in the animation department.

Pyscho Pass is like if someone took all the worst aspects of GITS Innocence and put them in an ugly, poorly directed television show.

Also I don't remember that thing that happens at the end of this episode being in the manga 0_0. Bad memory?

Well that's a fine opinion to have but, er, a single gif doesn't really cover the average animation quality of an entire series. Even SHAFT shows have a couple of nice cuts in them, but that doesn't mean that they're well animated.
are they in space?!?!?

Yes, it happens in the manga. It sets up the next conflict and
soft reboot

Well it would help if we had sometimes harem lead that actually would take advantage of that harem. Maybe it would go down to hentai too easily though lol. Still it's kinda implausible how tense and somewhat asexual most of these leads are.

wow such animation
Well that is the problem with psycho pass ... it had great animation at the start but couldn't keep this level of animation on the second part of the show ...we even had that infamous episode were everything was at the MAGI level.
YOu might have a better memory than mine but i don't remember bad animation in the first part.
"Second part" lol. I don't think any episode of Psycho-Pass had animation on par with ep1.
Ep16 (I think that was the one with the tower fight?) was probably the closest. The rest were all mediocre to bad animation wise.
