Hi everybody! I hope that you have been able to sort out your winners and losers for the season so far. As we head into the next week, many shows are going to be on episode 3 at this point. This means many of them might not get a discussion post if people haven't commented on the episode 2 thread.

Please use this thread as a dumping ground for all your anime questions, thoughts, recommendations, etc.

As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).

Watched a few more 1st eps:

Date A Live V: surprisingly decent episode. Honestly, likely due to Kurumi's involvement. This anime would be dead without her. Music's still pretty strong. DAL has some good themes. Weird ED choice though, as the visuals seem to be massive spoiler.
Mysterious Disappearances: that was a fun 1st ep. Interesting premise and seemingly fun characters. I think I'm already down bad for Sumireko. I also like both the OP and ED.
Kaiju No.8: decent 1st ep. I like that the MC isn't a high schooler for a change. I'm a bit worried this'll turn into a pretty standard battle shounen though, but hopefully I'm wrong. Don't care at all for the ED. Such a generic pop song.

Potentials for dropping:

Gods' Games We Play: I think I complained about it in the last thread, but the MC is so boring. It makes a lot of the rest boring too. The anime also seems like it's stuck in 2012. I will give it 1 more ep.

Still want to pick up/try:

Konosuba
Blue Archive
Misfit Demon King
Girls Band Cry
The Fable
Highspeed Etoile

Not sure how realistic that is alongside all the other I'm watching but oh well.

Other comments:

Hibike! Euphonium is still strong. I want to see more.
Astro Note: don't know how to feel about this yet. It's a bit surreal.
Yuru Camp: for some reason, the vibe is a bit off compared to last seasons.

I'm very torn about watching Yuru Camp S3. The movie felt like a very good conclusion for the animation for a good while.

Hm, I haven't even watched that one... I probably should. But from what I gathered this season takes place before the movie? Don't quote me on that though. I could be very wrong

[–] mo_lave@reddthat.com 1 points 5 months ago

It should take place before the movie.
