Honestly, the only spring show I've watched so far is The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan and I was already a fan of the Puyo manga so there wasn't the disappointment factor of it being "different" from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya that might have made me stop watching.

I want to watch Sound! Euphonium, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Only one I'm watching is UBW. I tried Danmachi but I couldn't even stand 1 episode of it.

Thanks ANN for doing these polls parallel to the ones originating in Japan.

This has been a very enjoyable anime season for me. These are my top 5:

1. Sound! Euphonium
2. Blood Blockade Battlefront
3. Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works
4. Heroic Legend of Arslan
5. My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU TOO!

Comedy-wise, Gintama's been in top form all season long. Fans who enjoy the occasional forays into seriousness may be disappointed, however.

Good to see Gintama, Blood Blockade Battlefront and Kyoukai no Rinne in here.
I don't see the appeal of Seraph though, it's been 5 episodes and I'm still struggling to enjoy it.

It was pretty close between Daiya no Ace -second Season-, Kekkai Sensen, Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works, Shokugeki no Sōma, Ore Monogatari!!, Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Zoku and Hibike! Euphonium. I voted for Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Zoku in the end, but even so, it had a small lead over the other shows I mentioned.

Arslan Senki, Plastic Memories and Owari no Seraph for me. I've been meaning to watch Blood Blockade Battlefront at some point too.

For me it's Kekkai Sensen, Arslan Senki, Ore Monogatari, Sidonia no Kishi 2 and Baby Steps 2. Still have to watch more shows when I have time.

Yeah, my viewing habits are VASTLY different from most anime viewers. First, I'd note that of those top 20, there are only 5 that I'm not following, and 3 of them are in the top 5.

Never got into Gintama, and until I can catch up on prior seasons, I probably won't. To me, Teen Romantic Comedy is a dull and infuriating show. I guess shows like this rely on "relating" to the characters or story, but I've never seen so much nauseating melodrama... to each their own I guess.

Hard to pick a top for me, but Arslan's pretty good, Seraph's really interesting, and Nisekoi's still one of the better of its genre around.

The anime shows I'm still watching are Blood Blockade Battlefront, Arslan Senki, Sound! Euphonium, Seraph of the End, The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan, and Punch Line.

As for shows I'm actually enjoying:
1. Blood Blockade Battlefront
2. Arslan Senki
3. Sound! Euphonium

Everything else I'm watching right now is just meh. Although I am considering dropping Seraph of the End since the show is so obscenely generic with nothing really going on to make it unique enough for me to bother continue watching it.

This season was not what I expected, at least in comparison with the winter season, which had amazing shows.

The only three I'm eager to watch every week are The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan, Ore Monogatari, and I can't understand what my husband is saying. I'm kind of romantic this season.

Hibike! Euphonium
Unlimited Blade Works
Plastic Memories
Kekkai Sensen

Haven't gotten past episode 1 on most everything else because I'm still behind on last season due to life and this season overall feels kinda lackluster with the exception of Hibike and Blade Works.

I'd like to see Ore Monogatari in a higher rank, but Yahari dominating the poll just makes my day. Not an everyday occurrence that Japanese viewers actually have good taste.
