The New Release Club's General discussion

Of course you do, she's a clone of that annoying bitch from Kill la Kill, but slightly less intolerable.
Yeah, I have no idea if I'm properly enjoying the show as a whole, but I guess I'm not disliking it?

 

@Supernatural-Knight In reverse

I say there's a chance u'll like Netoge but I cannot say for sure. I can say it is NOT your typical ecchi/sol/romance anime, even the romance is very different and not over done. (I know how u re with romance but I don't thin it'll bother u at all if at too much) Hopefully someone else can say whether u'll like it or not but if not, couldn't hurt to try right?

Me thinks that's a rhetorical question but either way, just knowing you and also knowing the anime I named are so few and that you most likely wouldn't watch em however that said, our interests are a bit more in common than you think. Case in point, Re Zero. That's one anime I meant to watch this season but have not done so (Guess along the way I was hoping for a dub soon). Really there's lots of anime from the last 3 seasons I have been meaning to watch, some I am waiting on their dub though. Also, I've been considering whether I should give Death Parade a chance or not. Back then it didn't interest me but after I read what u said on it to someone my interest in it peaked a bit. Do you think I'd like it?

On a side not, I think I've started to dislike Sentai. (Studio/company) Reason being is they rarely dub anime and the anime they acquire that gets subbed, they keep on lock down and don't let em ever get a dub typically. Lots of their anime I love but it's really annoying when certain anime u really want to watch dubbed are done by Sentai cus u know there's over a 90% chance it'll never see a dub. =_="

 

Sometimes their dubs are not the best ones around town, sometimes.

On a side note, here's my reaction to the latest Assassination Classroom

 

@Natsu No idea on that but dubbing is still easier than subs are cus u miss out on a lot less on screen due to not having to read.

I have not even started back watching that anime... no idea when I'll get around to it but tell me, did it get as good or better than S1 later on and if so around what number?

 

It becomes better, can't say when though, maybe before episode 10

 

True story, not only that but it's a multiverse that one, we've got Kill la Kill (Life Fibers and Guts), Little Witch Academia (Witches and Suzy), Sex & Violence with Machspeed (The Main Cast), Inferno Cop (The Main Man) and Kiznaiver (Gomorin Appearance), heck even Luluco was revealed as the mascot for Trigger, Trigger-chan

 

Man it's been a while. I've been meaning to get back in touch with this place but... well anyway.

Iron Fortress: It started out okay but Biba is by far the worst villain I have ever seen. His plan is just "make the world burn" but the series tries to pain it like it's something more.

Hero Academia: This was a fun series. MC is pretty useless but dammit he's trying and he'll likely get better as times passes.

Seisen Cerberus: The dragon transformation made me think this would have potential ... I was wrong

Hundred: meh. I only watched this because I actually kind of missed watching ecchi series. Show is pretty bland though

Sousei no Onmyouji: It's a nice shonen but also kinda dull. The hero and heroine both basically just have one move they use and they are only better than low level peons. So battles are only so so and they are mixed with father awkward romantic tension. It has potential to pick up and get good is things get serious but for now it's kidna slow

Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu: My only problem with this series is while they make the MC VERY real I don't like how he's not taking advantage of his power. There has to be a way he can kill himself without it hurting too much.

Kuromukuro: So far I've found this not that great but I'm also behind. maybe if I try to get back into it it will grow on me more

Kiznaiver: A really slow story but it was fun especially in later episodes.

Big Order: I feel this show would have been a LOT better if they had done like Mirai Nikki and waited until the manga was done and just did the whole thing. I lost interest a few episodes in when I realized it wouldn't be able to finish the story anyway and that the anime was STILL cutting things out.

Flying Witch- It's a sweet series but I keep getting bored by it. Like I know this is a quiet town type slice of life but would it kill you guys to mix a little actual drama into it?


BTW this was pretty much what I watched this season(Besides Assasin Class and Ushio and Tora) so is there anything I missed this season anyone thinks I should really check out?

 

BTW what are thoughts so far for the summer anime?

Souma is off to a great start IMO with the MC being boss as always.

Arslan is also starting off good although the fact it's only 12 episodes is heartbreaking.

ReLife I plan to check out but the fact they just dumped all the episodes at once throws off my plans a bit. I guess i'll just binge watch it at some point.

Hatsukoi Monster-I thought this sounded slightly interesting at first then I found out the "5th grader" has other equally tall friends. WTF? Okay writers listen up. When the selling point of the anime is a kid who looks like an adult dating an older girl who looks small you make then unique!!! Do it like that one short anime with the tiny sister and the adult looking brother. They took the concept and made it really fun. But this? I couldn't even finish the first episode before just quitting because the jokes weren't just bad they made me uncomfortable. I was thinking "what is this? Am I supossed to laugh at this? Okay I guess that part of a bit funny but at the same time those other ones are annoying me!"

That's all I've got so far. I'll either update this or make another post later once more stuff comes out.

 

ReLIFE marathoned in one go and read manga afterwards. Its super good (my type of anime).

Needless to say Orange is going to be one the best anime this season. As expected started off with a bang

Love Live is just something I am very biased

Souma and Arslan living up to expectations, but Berserk was a big disappointment for a sequel...

Tales of Zestiria the X prologue episode was promising, but I am worried that main story might be too underwhelming for those that didnt play the game.

Days is exactly what I thought it will be. Since I am a sports anime lover, I am sure I will enjoy watching this shitty player to become decent ^^

Yet to watch Rewrite and Fukigen na Mononokean from the newly aired stuff. Wont bother with the reverse harem and the 5th grade lovecom. Thinks thats all that aired so far?

 

For the time being, but let's see what else does the summer season have to offer

 

Orange looks like it will be good and I enjoyed the first episode.

I enjoyed the first episode Tales of Zestiria the X. I played the game and this is an alternate story from the game with some of the game's story being used I believe and the fact that Velvet is in the opening she is the main protagonist in Tales of Berseria which is the prequel to Zestiria shows that it will have some changes to the story and possibly expand on some events. So I am looking forward to see the differences and to see how Berseria is connected.

That is all I had time to watch so far of the summer anime and I plan to watch Rewrite when I get the chance.

 

so Tales of Zestiria the X is looking interesting? Well I'm still trying to actually finish the game so I'll hold off on it until later.

 

There is a few good series coming soon like 91 Days and DGM.

 

Those who going to watch Saiki Kusuo no Ψ-nan should know this:

this anime will air every day from Monday to Friday(5 episodes per week) and on the weekend a compilation of the 5 eps(25 minutes in total) will air. So it might be better to wait for a full ep.

 

man this season is weird.

ReLife released 12 episodes in 2 days, Arslan is only 8 episodes which is a strange number for a season, and Seven deadly sins is only 4!

It's like all the anime studios said "Screw the schedule lets just do this".

It's really odd.

 

I wish they would do that with more anime what they did with ReLIFE

 

Started back watching Assassination Classroom season 2. I had ut it on hold after seeing ep 6. Kinda a mistake cus the anime just got great again like itwas in S1. Bitch-sensei was the star of a part 2 ep being ep 7-8. She returned to her awesomeness and used every trick at her disposal. That said I was disappointed in how far she was willing to go but

Spoiler

glad she came around in the end and it all worked out.

The following eps have also been great. The next ep I have to see is ep 11.

Btw, interesting how this series is now getting a movie which is basically an adaptaion (or recap) of the entire anime series... u know, 47 eps condensed into even a 4 hr movie (duration is unknown) is just not enough to do this anime justice. I can already see this being a disaster. (Esp since it'll most likely be 1 hr & 30 mins or 2 hrs)


@Natsu Thanks, that helped me to get back to the above. *points up* ^

@Supernatural-Knight Well, when you do get the time, give Netoge a chance. U might just be surprised. And hey, Otaku or not is fine with me. Besides, I know the feeling, I've had times esp one particular season a year or two back where I had waaay too much on the anime watching plate. Twas fun though and no regrets.

I gladly and happily accept you blaming me if you start liking magical girl anime. hehe
Well is there another anime or three u can compare it too?

 

Netoge was meh. Not terrible but nothing good either. First few eps kinda funny but later very generic shit...
