It’s ‘worst season ever’ time again! Being neither the Spring or Fall season it was never going to have an amazing lineup, but is Summer even trying this year?
Most of these initial picks can be basically described as “they don’t sound completely terrible”. Tari Tari, Binbougami ga!, Sword Art Online, Kokoro Connect, Oda Nobuma no Yabou, and Ebiten are the biggest offenders of this, and I wouldn’t be surprised if I ended up dropping them. I probably would be giving Kingdom a shot but it has already started airing and I haven’t been hearing good things, so meh.
The rest of the ones I selected caught my interest to varying degrees and for varying reasons, but nothing really excites me. Except, of course Moyashimon Returns. While Moyashimon didn’t do all that much for me when I watched it, I’m genuinely excited for this sequel! Maybe I’m just getting caught up in the hype, or maybe it’s because the rest of the season just looks so dull, or maybe it’s because I actually enjoyed it more than I gave it credit for. Either way, that’s the main series I’m looking forward to! I need my microbe theater fix goddamit.
Other than that, planning on watching all the specials and OVAs related to what I’ve already seen (Persona 4 true ending HECK YEAH) and I cannot wait for the K-On! movie.
One last thing: isn’t Dakara Boku wa H ga Dakanai exactly the same show as Highschool DxD? It certainly looks and sounds like it.
Planned Series in Amazing Text:
Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita
Tari Tari
La Storia Della Arcana Famiglia
Uta Koi.
Binbougami ga!
Moyashimon Returns
Natsuyuki Rendez-vous
Campione!
Hagure Yuusha no Estetica
Sword Art Online
Kokoro Connect
Oda Nobuma no Yabou
Ebiten
So 13 series. Wouldn’t be surprised if I ended up dropping half of them.
The first few episodes of Kingdom weren’t bad, they just used a shitload of CGI. Everywhere. They cut that out last episode with no CGI at all. I hope they keep that up.
It’s not bad and you should really give it a try if you have time left. Which I doubt seeing the amount of stuff you’re already going to watch and your free time issues last season.
Fair enough, I’ll probably give it a shot then. My free time issues last season basically boiled down to “lol coursework/exams” but now that I’m on my summer break it’s “lol job”. But at least I have my evenings free!
Jintai, Famiglia, Moyashimon, Uta Koi, Joshiraku, Estetica
I anticipate dropping at least two of these.
