Summer 2013 — First Impressions

Seasonal Impressions,

As usual, here’s my rankings of the season’s new shows based on the first episode or so. You can click the links for details, so I’ll keep the discussion of each short. We’ll see how well this matches my ending thoughts.

Ongoing Series: Chihayafuru, Hunter X Hunter, Majestic Prince, Mushibugyo, Shingeki no Kyojin, Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S

Space Bros also exists if anyone is still watching it.

Shorts: Don’t know, don’t care.
Unwatched Sequels: Kingdom 2, Ro Kyuu Bu SS, Tamayura ~More Aggressive~

29. Futari wa Milky Holmes
A crime against humanity.

28. Brothers Conflict
I expect lots of things from an incest show, but boredom is generally not one of them.

27. KKK
As bad as it sounds. Continue reading Summer 2013 — First Impressions →

This episode was a huge improvement over the OVA, from what I recall, but that’s not saying much. Continue reading Kimi no Iru Machi — First Impressions →
