Towa no Quon 4
Quon's levels of brain damage may have surpassed Shirou's.
Yes let's bring in this cyborg, yes the one that tried to kill us 5 seconds ago, the one who can be be remotely controlled and is filled to a brink with all kinds of tracking and data transfer utilities, let's bring that guy to our super secret mutant facility, which houses scores of kids and all the hitherto saved mutants. Let's do that guys ! That's clearly a very logical thing to do. Nothing bad could possibly come out of it, Let's all commit seppuku while we're at it shall we ?

In the 1000 years of being alive, Quon never took a class in basic logic

He probably posted halfway through watching the show. He's going to be disappointed isn't he lol.
Erased
I liked it but the twist at the end doesn't look all that promising. Hope it turns out alright.
sushi police
Awful artstyle and not funny, dropped.
prince or stride
Promising, it felt a lot like Haikyuu to me so i hope it will be as good as that show. Liked the soundtrack but the color pallete looked too bright, was it a Funimation screw up? Also Heath is best boy.
phantom world
Personally not a big kyoanime fan but this show was still enjoyable to me. The limbo scene was funny, well directed and had good pacing and I hope that more battles will be fought in other ways than just plain fighting. This is gonna be my guilty pleasure.
active raid
This show couldn't even hold my attention. This is probably gonna have a lot of combat and the battle in this episode was awful so im not gonna bother with this one.
Shoujo-tashi
Now this. This Japanese animation showcase was funny, characters are likeable and going in without knowing the premise i was
. The lead up to that "twist" was great. Looking forward to the next episode. Also it's great when Hanakana doesn't get typecasted like she usually is. Her voice acting is on point in this show. Based Romeo does it again.

I came in skeptical of all the praise and left regretting that I will have to wait a week to see more. Well done.

Early impressions for Erased sound good. Think I'll hold off on it though and see if it still manages to stay with everyone for now.
Erased Episode 1 Additional:
I see the powers are about as consistent as Life is Strange as well.

Anyway, can really call him a child protagonist since clearly he is still of the mind of an adult and I am willing to bet we are jumping back and forth through time in this series.

I didn't think Stride was very good. In a good sports anime, what happens outside the competition is just as important, sometimes even more important, than the actual competition.
And outside of that race, Stride just wasn't very interesting.
I did like this scene though.

This is why Ippo is one of the best. Because everything outside of the boxing is just as interesting as what happens in the boxing. You could feel the determination as he's training after his first loss to figure out how to successfully combine evasion and offense. And it probably has one of the best supporting casts in almost anything, I'll never get tired of Takamura/Aoki/Kimura hijinks.
And being completely up to date on the manga, holy shit are there some strong conversations that carry actual weight. Morikawa is really good at balancing comedy and drama.

Just read a doujin. Same thing. Less ahegaos.

How can anyone think that the main girl in Marshmallow sounds like Senjougahara-sama?
Because they only watched owari or something so they don't know/remember how she sounds.
Yeah, they're not similar at all. But she doesn't sound like Karen either, despite being the same VA. :/

Unfinshed though. EP3 should have the real OP and ED.
Less ahegaos, whut...

Uh...
Good, because it's pretty bad. Prince of Stride Alternative has had the only good OP out of the new shows so far, though Kouya's is OK.

That's terrible, but clearly unfinished.
Hey, the show can always improve in the following episodes, and if it does that will be pretty great, as it did show some promise. Although It's a 12 episode show right? They can't really take a lot of time with such a short runtime.
And now for something I liked, so it won't look like I'm just here to hate on things.
Erased 1
I really liked the overall atmosphere in the show, and the story setup seemed pretty good. I also quite liked the main character - it's nice to see some more anime with adult protagonists. It wasn't particularly mindblowing, but it seems like a well put together show and I enjoyed the first episode.

Hardly anything has aired.
...But watch Oji-san to Marshmallow. Erased had a good first episode too.
Both on crunchyroll, great. Thanks.

...Are they using clips of the show to cut together an opening?
That's terrible.
Song is okay though.

Yamishibai S2 07
Man gets his life force sucked away from him by Gachapon machine. Deep. This is why you shouldn't play shitty mobile games.
Yamishibai S2 08
Guy tells dead man he knocked up his wife. Dead man does nothing. Other guy tells dead man he killed his dog on accident. DEAD MAN IS PISSED. Priorities.
Yamishibai S2 10
Why. Why is it always the eyes.

Well that doesnt give much hope for the other OP this season if this is considered the best one of the season, cause wow that was uninteresting and the song isn't good.

I hope Erased goes the Ashton Kutcher route.

Did the Erased anime provide an Opening?
Or is it going to be in the next episode?

Oh damn I'm ready for that Opening by Asian Kung Fu Generation.
They did play the song at the end, but no visuals, just black screen + credits.

Nobody told me Erased was based off an ongoing manga. That kind of ruins it.
