That... did nothing for me haha. I'll still end up watching it just because it's the most interesting one this season.

Oh jesus here we go.

The animation doesn't look good but I maaaay still watch it.

Yeah. Honestly, I'm more looking forward to what Studio Trigger will do when they get in a position to produce some series. Gainax's future is kinda sketchy right now.

With the names attached to the series and the concept, I'm incredibly excited for this show (so much that I'll probably be let down, lol).

This is the most excited I have been for this season, but I will hold some back until I actually watch it.

Why are the guns CG? It doesn't make any sense, just makes me grimace.

Other than that...doesn't look too bad. Could be good.

Shin Sekai Yori - The Literal Weeaboo

(i hope this isn't advertising)

Anyway, yeah, hopping on the whole "blog" bandwagon. Since it doesn't make much sense to post separate impressions both here and there, I'm going to stick with there.

But that doesn't mean we can't still talk about the new season here (obviously)!

For example:

Shin Sekai Yori was the shit, you guys should watch it.

EDIT: Oh, forgot to mention, the site is linked to the image of the badass in blue :3

Okay then. Currently on my list for this season I have.

Gintama.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
Magi
Psycho Pass
Zetsuen no Tempest

Thats what I have watched so far, attempting to give Robotic;Notes a download but it keeps cutting out on me.

All I know so far is that all of the shows I have watched so far have been fantastic.

Gintama has stormed back in with its new season right on form.
JoJo's has a great style to it and I am eager to see how they handle the rest of the sagas.
Magi was a surprising hit. I really enjoyed it and it had a great sense of adventure to it and scenes that had a really good sense of adventure and tension to it that I rarely see in a first episode. Hopefully it holds up, I have heard the manga does.
Psycho Pass was a mixture, whilst I loved everything in terms of the mise-en-scene of it all and it's atmosphere oh my god was brilliant. It was just the characters that fell flat for me. I'm not too big on Amano's style, all I could see was Hitman Reborn characters over and over again and it was offputting for me somewhat. The characters were the weakest link of an otherwise owow holy crap this is awesome first episode.
Zetsuen is probably the weakest show I've seen out of the crop. First episode was great, the soundtrack was brilliant and had good production values but other than that, it was a bit nyeh. Will give it another episode but still.

Other than that, still have Hunter x Hunter and about 20 episodes of Polar Bear cafe to catch up.

it ain't Valhalla, that's for sure.
Robotics;Notes had a goog enough first episode in my opinion, while not much happened. Though whoever Aki was quoting did make things a bit confusing for a bit (heard that they were from Chaos;Head btw which I had yet to watch cuz of the negative criticism), but didn't seem that important to start with. I probably don't expect this to have as much of an impact as Steins;Gate but hopefully it holds itself together ang gets even better to make a great sci-fi anime on its own.

Been watching UTW's subs. Crunchyroll is simulcasting it as well, but I think it's about 5 days late or so.

lol Reminds me of of WSJ's manga ranking questionnaires. Deciding on putting Psycho Pass and K on-hold. As much as I like the premise I just can't keep up with so many so shows for now. I will never stall for JoJo though. :) Thinking about rewatching the first three episodes of Shin Sekai Yori before I continue on.

I am probably dropping Little Busters! though. It has been disappointing. I was not planning to watch this much, but somehow it ended up that way. Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo was a surprise.
