Gonna be honest, i'm not sure what was so bad about GC. Might be my memories as a 12 year old influencing me, but still... |

So... yeah, it's pretty bad. First show I ever gave a 1/10. |

Farewell, My Dear Cramer had really fun characters backed up with a solid potential sports story. And that's a good thing because the animation for the soccer action were just....okay. At the very least it's not a dumpster fire like Tamayomi was, but it REALLY shows the state of female sports anime in general especially in comparison to male sports anime. Yeah, there's Uma Musume which is quickly becoming another success for Cygames, but that relied on fantastical gimmicks with horse girls in for what's essentially a sprint sports show.
And really, for Farewell, My Dear Cramer being done by the same manga-ka who did the hit Your Lie in April, you'd think someone up in the production staff would gave Cramer more oomph. I will grant them though that the same staff actually do a prequel movie so there is some form of completeness and care they want out of this. And I get that everyone in the industry is stretch thin so it's a shame this got the short end of the stick. |

7 Knight Revolution was just the way I like my anime sometimes; a nicely animated, decent middle of the road fantasy piece with some transformations in it. I still love My Otome, and this had a similar sort of feel to it. I guess My otome crossed with playing Fate Grand Order.
Its nothing to write home about to be sure, but I found it quite fun. |

If Seven Knights Revolution is based on a gatcha game, I’m surprised they went with Seven in the title rather than something more like 20,000 Knights Under the Sea.

Guilty crown wasn't so much as extraordinary bad (every season there's some worse show) but most bad shows are bad because they lacked resources or talented peoples. GC had both and still managed to make a terrible show. On top of that it had a big marketing budget so plenty of people watched it compared to most bad shows. It did have a great OP song though. |

i think I've seen Guilty Crown but have no strong memories of it, so I guess it didn't stick for me.
Those Snow White Notes; Im glad I tried it, the first episode was very good. And the hip-hop/pop Shamisan track at the end credits was awesome! |

I feel like I'm going to be in the minority with this opinion but Vivy just isn't doing anything for me. While the world seems interesting and the story intriguing, the way Tappei Nagatsuki writes dialogue just isn't my cup of tea. I only started to notice it towards the end of Re:Zero's most recent season but a lot of that show's dialogue is too long, needlessly wordy and feels artificial. It all works to take me out of the moment, rather than immerse me in it.
With Vivy, in particular, it's primarily that damn bear! He's essentially the embodiment of everything I dislike about Re:Zero's writing. Run-on sentences, verbiage for days and even the voice actor speaks so rapidly that my eyes feel like they're about to combust just trying to keep up. That Red-Eyes Black Paddington made me want to stop watching the show as soon as he started talking and it only gets worse. Admittedly, everything I've just said is entirely subjective. On top of that, I think the issue is exacerbated by the fact that I have to read the dialogue, rather than simply listen to it. If that were the case, my tolerance for the bear may very well change. Unfortunately, Nagatsuki's style of writing would still be a problem for me, even then. Hopefully, if Vivy gets dubbed, how it handles the bear may alleviate things, slightly. It has enough of a hook that I want to see where it goes but I'm not sure if I can stick with it, either. |

This season has been really weak so far. I'm not impressed with any of the anime at all. Moriarty is a continuation so I don't really consider it as "new"
Among the other animes, I really enjoy the dragon one. It is light and good to pass time. It is not impressive but it is enjoyable. I watched combatants will be dispatched! and sorry but it was terrible. This humor is not of my liking at all. The guy is annoying and stupid, the blonde girl is cliche, and the rest of the characters are boring af. A huge bye to this anime. I haven't watched those snow white notes yet, but it is on my list. I hope it is good. |

I hear good things about To Your Eternity, coming soon. If you haven’t seen Mars Red, I recommend checking it out at least. While likely not for everyone, a good number of people panning the first episode have actually missed the plot entirely. |

Megalobox 2 was great. Dark as hell, but great!
