1. The Rolling Girls
Love how active this one is. Never dull.
The new shows aren’t as strong as last season (which was amazing) but there’s still six new shows that I like a fair amount. Also there are some strong sequels airing! What do you think of the new season’s shows?
I think Death Parade is going to be my favourite this season followed by Maria. I’m also liking Yatterman for reasons I can’t explain considering almost nothing it does actually appeals to me. Episode 3 of Rolling Girls was probably enough to show me that I wouldn’t like the show, but I’ll keep up with it just because. I was also liking Magical Boys, but I’m half way through episode 4 and I think the concept has been worn thin by now.
As for sequels, Tokyo Ghoul, Aldnoah.Zero and Durarara!! all do nothing for me. Though I’m still loving Jojo.
Just watched episodes 2-4 of Death Parade and 3+4 were great! Definitely one of my favorites now.
14. Kantai Collection
A 1 on a scale of 10 (Code Geass) to 0 (Aria).
False. Beyond false.
Death Parade’s 3rd episode is pretty heartwarming.
Death Parade 3 was amazing. I enjoyed 2 as well.
Garo > Death Parade > Yatterman > Parasyte > Binan Koukou
While Aldnoah is still somewhat entertaining, Tokyo Ghoul’s been a bit of a disappointment. I’m also not very fond of Kuma Arashi, as it’s more heavy handed with the symbolism than I thought it would be.
I recommend giving Death Parade another try. Especially episode 3, which shows that not all souls sent to Quindecim get horrible endings.
I gave Death Parade another try today. 3 and 4 were both amazing. If it’s like this I’m definitely up for more. It’s a shame they started on such a mean story.
Rolling Girls episode 3 had more to do with watching a freshly painted wall dry than with the first two episodes. Hopefully it picks up again, episode 2 in particular was great.
Agreed. Needs more fighting.
