Its very hard to get past the awful art on shin-chan...

Gunslinger girls first season was great, but second was dumbified and all cast was changed...

Strike witches is good for the fan service though...

Started Oda Nobuna, only slightly more entertaining than Campione! (in other words dropping unless I get bored and there is nothing better to do).

As of now, only Horizon II gets my "I am watching this" tag, although I still have a lot more to start.

We need more Kimi and Chiwa Saito :3

Dropping Horizon S2 now.

And the only good Chiwa Saito character right now is in Kuroko no Basket. And that says something since she doesn't have oppai that defies gravity there.

I have, but because you used one of the worst characters from the shows that are currently showing right now, I won't mention them at all.

Goes a long way to prove that its quite hard to find something (more or less) universally loved this season.

I quite like Chitanda, at least until episode 5/6 when I dropped Hyouka. I suppose you can call that last season, since that I have not watched Hyouka "this season".

Buying back my childhood, one bit at a time :)

Haven't seen much of this season besides Total Eclipse. Still keeping up with Shirokuma Cafe and Rock Lee SD.


A trip to Mixup netted me this

I have bad news for you ...

Can't think of an anime with a halfway decent story since Fate/Zero ended. Most of the rest like Accel World have ok stories, but not universally accepted as "good". Some will find them engaging but others will brush it off as another boring story.

Hyouka might not have a PLOT, but it doesnt need any to look good and be fun...
Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita is particularly interesting and doesnt fall under any known genre (does it??) it's a huge fun mess...

How about Natsuyuki Rendezvous, i wonder if there is someone that dislikes this one which seems to be building a nice story and a good romance...

This season has lots of comedy and lot of poor stories, there isnt any A+ title i think...
Hopefully fall season will be better...

Started Nobuna based on entropy's suggestion, so far its ok but I have a feeling this will not last more than episode 5 for me.

I watch anything which I consider to be good, regardless of what others think. A very good example will be Gundam Seed, I think its not too bad but a lot of people think its completely bollocks. Ano Hana received a lot of attention last year (2nd after Madoka in Spring 2011), but I find it completely unwatchable. I like Saiunkoku Monogatari, and find Eva quite shit. You cannot easily group me into stereotypes.

Dropped Hyouka because I can't be bothered to continue watching it, just like Mirai Nikki.

Will take a look at Jinrui and Natsuyuki, but its more likely than not I will drop the two than not.

I am with you on your seasonal analysis, I don't see anything good which I can recommend to everyone, unlike previous seasons which almost always have one (Fate Zero, KoreZom, Aquarion Evol, Steins;Gate, Madoka, etc)

bothered to watching it? and why you star if you dont like the plot? is nonsense like drop mirai nikki is nonsense drop it why you have in your mind your own plot .
i think you after read a plot make in your mind an idea of what is the final result and is bad to think that, is like watching a trailer for a movie or a game and make dreams about.

If you like the plot that does not automatically mean that you like how the director executes the plot. Likewise, the plot might be generic but it can be done well. A good example of the former will be Gundam AGE and the latter, Toradora. There are anime which doesn't stick to the plot, like Aquarion Evol but enjoyable nonetheless.

Don't judge the book by its cover.
