Let the records show that Sailor Moon R is a bad season that has cured my insomnia several times these past few months.
I will however be looking forward to S and Haruka/Uranus' handsomeness enveloping me. Not sure how much I'll talk about that considering so many here are just waiting on Hulu's release.
Watching RahXphon currently, and I'm planning to watch the whole Gundam UC Timeline for the first time. Also have the whole of Code Geass to watch and a whole bunch of other stuff including random things like Windy Tales, Master Keaton, Planetes, The Tatami Galaxy, Ping Pong, the Macross Series and many more! 2015 will be the year I clear out my backlog. Nothing releasing this year seems up my alley but I look forward to a western release of When Marnie Was There. I may also watch Monster and Legend of the Galactic Heroes if I find time. 2014 was a year in which I watched a lot of stuff, but this year should be more packed! 
Already read that last month. I read a TON of stuff last month.
Got really weird when Duane Swierczynski took over too.

Bonkoi Episode 13
Made me wish to see how Food War's bento contest will be animated, though at least this anime tried.
Ryou kun part at the end, love his one eyed look at us.

Everyone else should do this too for various reasons that may or may not involve making fun of someone.

Yamato 2199 - 03
The theory of black hole travels? Sign me up. The battle sequences aren't that noteworthy as of yet, I hope they find ways to spice them up.
I do wonder though how you're able to import a part of a planet the size of Australia from another solar system to Jupiter. Is Drek from Ratchet & Clank 1 the mastermind behind the enemy alien plans?
It's kinda scary seeing the Yamato having the power to nuke off an entire continent. They're gonna have to stay on the correct path with this kind of power.
I bet it's going to be a grey area later on, as the crew may have differences on when it is a viable use. There are so many gorgeous views in this show, I can't possibly pick them all.

One difference is that in Kancolle the girls ARE the ship.
How exactly this show is gonna go is anyone's guess because the manga are all different in tone and how the girls work and the game is sorta plotless.

Also, as far as backlog goes, I started Digimon Xros Wars today so I'll be watching both it's first and second season this week, after that, I will watch all 9 Digimon movies, and then will watch the maximum number of 12 ep shows until February (when my classes start). Haven't decided which one's yet, but it's the ones that are in my MAL Plan to Watch which does not have more than one season (so for example Hidamari Sketch is out). After that, only watch random short stuff on the weekends until July.
Surprised that I didn't make the wall this time, though I was gone for a couple days due to New Years. Was too busy to post.
In any case, this season looks great! I'll definitely be watching:
Death Parade
Jojo's
Yuri Kuma
Koufuku Graffiti
Idolm@ster Cindarella Girls
I'm going to wait for impressions for:
Yoru no Yatterman
Junketsu no Maria
From previous seasons, I'm continuing:
Shirobako
Parasyte
Ronja
PriPara
Sailor Moon Crystal
It's... going to be busy. I might not be able to watch all of these at once, so I may have to place some of these on hold once I get busy.

Havent the engsubs BDs been releasing monthly in the us?
All but the last two volumes atm.
As SliceSabre said, the only similarity they had go as far as cute girls anthropomorphication. But as the girls in Arpeggio are the representation of the ships, in Kancolle the girls are the ships. Yes expected it to be dumb and plotless unlike Arpeggio that have actual plot that's going on.
If you haven't already, read Arpeggio since the anime have original ending.
Oh yeah that reminds me, I also have Baccano! to watch this year I guess
I might watch some Digimon this year too, watched it on and off as a kid, but it seems like good fun. No idea, but I just get chill vibes from it, I always think of the color blue when I think of Digimon and it makes me relaxed lol. Also Casshern Sins a 10? Nice
I need moar from that moe eating SHAFT show, the faces are dawwwww
Yeah just forget it when Fraction left lol, Uncanny X-Force by Remender also legendary.

Okay Narag you win. I'll quit bugging you on ask.fm and you can put me down to watch Hunter x Hunter. This better not suck!

Hunter X Hunter is indeed awesome, and is one of my favourite shows. It has one of the most creative superpower systems I've seen in a shounen anime, plus some really interesting characters as well.
You're in for a treat.
I been out the anime game for a minute, trying to follow some stuff this season. It shouldn't be hard because the only thing that looks interesting is durarara!! I'm not even a big fan of the first season tho.
The last series I actively follow was Madoka. I'm more of a Manga reader, but even then I stopped reading stuff about the same time.

Before I start typing this, I gotta say, should never try to marathon the show series in one day watch. Also, I am typing this after I finish the show so, they might be some stuff which I never have time to sink in a bit.
Now, where can we start this. It's a fun wacky show to watch and remind me the wackiness of another show I already watch, FLCL which is a show I like quite a bit.
The story line is basic as you can get. Boy and girl talk about life in Japan and the girl is leaving with her parent to another city. An accident happened and now both of them are suck in this weird world of make believe which they need to find an emp to get them back to they real world. Cant complain about this too much as the wackiness of the show compensate this issue quite a bit with tons of fan joke of gaming, robot show, romance show, etc which (if you're a fan) will get a chuckle from. Still, the plot of the show will slowly start to open up as you listen to the dialogue of the character in each episode (this get more important as you get closer to the end of the series).
For character development, the main character of the series is the backbone of the show who's personalities play off one another in hilarious ways. How they interact to each other in a situation is fun to watch and is maybe the strong side of the show.
What I don't like is how they try to push comedy to serious plot moments and back again. I kinda understand why they're trying to do (and you understand when you realize why they're in the weird planet) but it break the pacing and tone of the show. You will notice around third quarter of the show when you start to get more background history of the character in the show and the mysterious male character and a female character who keep chasing him.
Another thing I feel it's a bit on the bad side is the ending. Don't really hate the ending but it kinda go against the idea of the story and why the main male character is trying to stop her friend to go back to the real world. Kinda spoiler a bit but the main male character dad basically tell him he can't stop what is going to happening to his friend grandpa and he shouldn't be childish about this. The whole show you keep hearing why the main male character is been childish of his action (even if it's to not let his friend to suffer in pain of her loss) . If he was to be treat as an adult, he should be actually let the real world go through with no change, knowing that the suffering of the loss from his friend will be hard. I guess, something with that sad ending won't work with this comedy show so, they go with the happy ending of basically change the world a bit so everyone is alive which kinda go against the idea a bit.
Still, it's a good show to watch with the wackiness gags from all range of idea will keep the audience happy. Yes, the pacing is fine till they start to bring in the serious side of the story and some people might not like fan service which you see quite a bit. Even with the minor issue, I would recommend people to watch the show.
Note: Might ask the AnimeGaf of the next show to watch as I have quite a bit of anime collection I own which didn't have a chance to watch. The list is below and would ask which show to watch next after this. Those that say watch, have been watch and done.

They still should be given a chance even if they're likely to fail.

New thread eh?
In Arpeggio case, it was only in name. Their ships is actually completely fictional with all of that lazer beam and anti-gravity canon as arsenal.
Yeah, but it's ultimately more work and I extract a high price for additions. Just ask wonzo.
