Your name. I loved it.
Ajin takes an inconsiderate number of episodes to get going but once it does...damn.
There seemed to be no heroes in the series whatsoever.

Noticed that the video was missing a few things that I know are supposed to come out this Summer so:
Currently the ones that sound somewhat interesting to me:
- NewGame!! (New Game 2nd Season)
- Gamers
- Knight's and Magic
- Isekai Shokudou
- Made in Abyss
- Centaur No Nayami
I've been a little "meh" on the last several seasons with only one or two shows that really catch my interest. So the fact that I can list more than that gives me hope for the season.
MORE HELL GIRL
New Symphogear, HELLS YEAH
Knights & Magic, Made in the Abyss, Mahojin Guruguru, Centaur No Nayami and new Fate series are also on my watch list.
The Reflection Wave One is also something I'm interested in, curious to see what Stan Lee has come up with there
More of a Manga thing than Anime, but it'll reach the anime eventually
Big Mom is the most messed up One Piece villain ever.
Not giving spoilers but when they animate her background story....just Damn that is dark!

In a stunning display of spontaneous enlightenment, the abuse ceases. Not entirely though, as there is an outsourced case to be made for the abusiveness suddenly taking an adventurous turn towards the bizarre...Neither will the dubbed abuseivness ever cease.
The abuse will never end...
Yep, and the sooner we all can get to the real troubling issue that pops up in anime now and then... that issue being that of tentacled aberrations being horribly abused by angry short-tempered Loli schoolgirls; all of which has nothing to do with the plot whatsoever...Needless to say, such prevalent abuseivness was pervasive enough to get an english dub too. ;)
The abuseivness to tentacled aberrations makes an shocking explosive return...
A "familiar" dub returns. Is NSFW.
Putting back the dub in "Dubya"...
By single season dub, it was just the first 12 episodes that got dubbed before old local distributor, Geneon went belly-up (Sentai handles the distro of this series nowadays).
Because dubs (one of the few single-season only ones of anime) still exist.The "fanservicey" hand taketh away: The Familiar of Zero.
1. Be a human male, summoned to another world by accident.
2. Could get a Harem in that world.
3. ????
4. Profit with more seasons/sequels!Also in dubbed format.
Due to technical difficulties, let me leave you with this very special and very short dub. Also some NSFW dubbed abridgement too.
Four NSFW dubbed abridgements... for the price of none. :)
Also due to technical difficulties, I will leave you with this silly song.As an added bonus, the full safe version (so long as you aren't in any Japanese-language speaking locale, that is...) and the NSFW version (universally, unless you're in a nudist colony).
Back to sneaking into teh nudist colony with the NSFW version of a High School DxD ditty (now on Crunchyroll... the series not the ditty).
Or if you prefer, another fully safe version except if you understand the japanese language... Who am I kidding? It's High School DxD, it'll never be fully sfw! ;)
New Season brings new shows
My most interesting show so far
Restaurant to Another World - This was nice. kind of a relaxing show about a restaurant that shifts around from one reality to another. Specifically between Earth and different locations in a fantasy world. It is also technically part of a 100,000 year old Red Dragon's treasure horde. In the first episode they pick up a new Tiefling waitress as a part timer (who gets added to the dragon horde)
also raises the question; how good dose your Beef Stew have to be for a Dragon to say "Ok, you are now part of my treasure horde"
I did enjoy the first episode of that one. Two others that seem to have promise at least so far are
Knights and Magic which is the first Mecha anime I've been interested in really in a while. And they do have an interesting spin on the Sent to Another World trope.
and The Elegant Yokai Apartments was in an interesting surprise. Then again I'm a sucker for supernatural slice of life shows.
I enjoyed Fate/Apocrypha the most so far. Knights and Magic felt... a little bit rushed? But some of these "they grow up from a baby" stories can start pretty slow, so yeah.
Some people were saying they covered about 75% of the first novel with Episode 1, including skipping an entire kidnapping arc. Looks like writers wanted to get to Giant Robots vs. Monsters as quickly as possible.

"In another World with my smartphone"
So it's another Died/Reborn in fantasy world show....there are a lot of these
It wasn't bad kind of laied back feel to it.
but the main thing that popped into my head was
"Kazuma would hate this guy SOOOOOO much"
He pretty much gets everything Kazuma didn't.
full Stat boost
Able to use every form of magic
Genius beautiful twins (not to mention highly skilled and competant) as his partners
unique magic item (smartphone)
Hell within 5 minutes of arriving in the new world the kid is rich because some merchant saw him and wanted to buy all of his strange clothing, including underware.
The kid is pretty much set for an easy time of it.
All because God accidentally dropped a bunch of lightning bolts on him.
despite all that I still kind of enjoyed this

Magic Circle Guru guru
300 years ago the Demon lord was sealed with the magic of Guru guru. But the seal has weakened and now he is reborn. The King puts out a call for heroes to defeat the demon lord.
Which is just want Nike's dad has been waiting for. Dad always dreamed of being a legendary hero but there was no Demon Lord back then so his dreams went unfulfilled. Now he can finally entrust those dreams to his 12 year old son.
and so shoving his(reluctant) son out the door the quest to save the world has begun.
Meanwhile at the edge of town a 12 year old girl has been training all her life in the magic of Guru guru, while waiting for the brave hero who will take her on a grand adventure.

So I watched the first episode of "A centaurs life" today. I honestly don't know what to think about it, it felt like it should have been an episode somewhere in the middle of a series. The setting has some really interesting ideas but if one was to judge from ep1 the pacing needs serious work.

Well after 4 weeks waiting for someone to pick up Symphogear AXZ for streaming I ran out of patience and hunted it down myself.
Crazy bad ass over the top musical action
Oh Yeah....that's the stuff.
4 episodes of cutting down giant airships, dragons and Nakid guy's throwing Nukes at our heroes.
Cliffhanger, thy name is Symphogear.

Okay so this may be way premature but I think "Made in Abyss" may take the prize for the show of the season. If you haven't watched it and are a fan of Miyazaki, it has the same "feel" as a lot of his work. I am afraid though, that I may shed a tear or two by the end of this show.

Yo, guys... Stain is a beast.
That was an impressive episode
Got me digging out my Mutants & Masterminds book and wanting to write up a new Campaign
Just fantastic job of portraying the pure menace coming from Stain
Managed to see the first episode of Princess Principal today. Had to push the limits of my high school french to do it though (Take that Amazon, I can watch with French Subtitles instead HA)
Really good show, love the Victorian Steampunk setting
Great Opening theme

For all it's silliness smartphone in another world is kind of fun. It's like having all the cheat codes for a adventure game.
God "by the way, Poligamy is the standard in this world so marry all the girls you want"
and in a distant land Kazuma cries tears of blood while screaming "BullSh#@"

Yeah, pretty much. XD I look at it as what I tend to call "mac and cheese" shows. It's not especially great or noteworthy, but it's casually entertaining when you have some time to burn and don't want to work too hard to find something.
Speaking of Kazuma, though, I heard that a new anime project of Konosuba was announced... (Not sure if it's a new season, some more OVAs, or what, but...)

I gave up on that one after 3 episodes, which was three too many. I can list everything wrong with it but the shortest way to do so is to say it seems like a self-insert fairy tale I would tell myself when I was 12, only with slightly better prose. This isn't a good thing.
Not that there is anything wrong with this as such, but it fails to be entertaining or give me a reason to like any of the characters or find the situations at all interesting.

** spoiler omitted ** Personally I give it 9/10, and if I don't see another season I'll be very disappointed.
I'd give it a 10/10, I really don't know what more I would want from it.
I've been encouraging my friends to watch it the past few weeks, and it's been incredibly rewarding receiving angry text messages when people hit certain scenes in the series.

Yeah, pretty sure I know which scenes you mean. And yeah, I'm pretty sure I've gotten roughly the same text messages.

Ok UQ Holder was fun
It's a sequel to Negima, so naturally it starts with Fanservice. But after we get past Eva remembering the Good old days we move forward 80 years into the future. A sleepy little town where School teacher Yukihime exists as the Last Boss for anyone wanting to leave town and go to the capital (by order of the Village Leader). In the distance we can see the Space Needle that many a young boy dreams of reaching the top of.
Our Hero; Tota Konoe (familiar family name for Negima fans). After his parents died two years ago he has been adopted and raised by Yukihime. He has visions of a Red headed man (sometime appearing as a young boy with glasses) wearing robes and carrying a staff, telling him that He is waiting at the top of the Space Needle.
Also Magic was revealled to the world 10 years ago. There are even Apps for non-mages to use it (costing 100,000 yen for 1 slot, so not something any school kid can get)
It's a good start to the series. Things go crazy, lots of blood some cool action and a dark revelation about Tota's background come fast and furious. Now our young hero and his guardian are on their way to the Capital.
A young Boy's Adventure has begun.
