Is it just me, or is this season kind of shit? Normally there's at least a few contenders for AotS, but this time, the only one that comes to mind is a s2 whose only real strength is the voice acting.

konouba was always shit, you got memed the first time.

Every season we have this same thread.
Every season someone makes a response like mine.
It never stops. This is hell.

haven't watched anything in the past 5 years or so and this season has me watching three shows

so no

Well, it's not made by me every season. Normally I make a "which anime is AotS" thread when we're about this deep into the season. Although for winter seasons, perhaps this is more normal.

good season for cute girls and yuri

bad season for literally everything else

>cute girls
What cute girls are there? I haven't found one like New Game or Stella no Mahou yet.

Are you not watching Gabriel Dropout?

Gabriel
Urara
Demi
Maid Dragon

lets add Konosuba while we are at it

>yuri

you sicken me

what are you gay?

Acca 13.
Akiba's Trip.

Demi has too much anime-only filler.

I actually liked the first episode. The part of Aqua trying to get him out of jail and the other 2 running from an explosion with masks on cracked me the fuck up

2nd eps? meh Maybe if the OVA with titty slapping wasnt out before it. Basically just a redo of that eps. Some feels though

>good season for yuri

how? the kuzu no honkai subplot and what else?

I assumed it was harem since the lead is a male name.

I'll try them. Bypassed Maid Dragon because KyoAni but maybe I should give them another shot.

I prefer REAL yuri. Everything after Yuruyuri is just "fun things are fun but with 13 yr old lesbos!"

This is the best season we've had in a long time, stop having shit taste

Normally there are no good shows, and this season has two. Huzzah

>fun things are fun but with 13 yr old lesbos!
The best kind of yuri. People who hate fun things can go to Sup Forums.

Bruh 3 eps are out

No, fuck off.

You are the reason anime was a mistake

hurrr i like purdy preteen lesbos durrr

>he doesn't like purdy preteen lesbos

no, it's still good.

Spring is going to be even worse.

every season people like to complain that it's shit and it's never gnna stop. This seasons good though so kys

>kys

opinion invalid

>killing yourself in a good season
That doesn't make any goddamn sense.

You apparently aren't watching ACCA.

Is it actually good or just pretentious? The art style leans in the latter direction.

Pretentious media are normally good, so both.

kill yourself. i'm so sick of shows that aren't about anything.
i'm really enjoying it, but I'm pretentious so I don't know.

>Is it just me
Yes.

What about Rakugo, why doesn't anyone mention it?

We aren't josei.

I didn't watch season 1, but I've been meaning too. I think we live in an age of mental retardation and over stimulation and a show with no bright colors or cute lolis isn't worth their time

Not great, not popular

>Best season in years
>HURF DURF WHY IS EVERYTHING SHIT

This is why you can't have nice things.

>3 eps

Of what? Demi? Still too much filler in each ep that isn't in the manga.

>t. fujoshi
No, fuck off, there was YoI for you and it's huge.

you know it's funny because i am a fujoshi. fuck.

>

Though I won't disagree if you're talking about board quality.

Every years thousand of user come to the soul-crushing realization that he is no longer the target demographic of anime.

Well, the ones I've seen so far are
>Youjo Senki - a fairly interesting series that is based on an ongoing series that isn't going to have an actual end
>Konsuba 2 - second season to a fantasy based comedy that is based on an ongoing series that isn't going to have an actual end
>Gabriel Dropout - a fantasy based comedy that is based on an ongoing series that isn't going to have an actual end
>Maid Dragon - a fantasy based comedy that is based on an ongoing series that isn't going to have an actual end
>Little Witch Academia - a fantasy based comedy NOT based on an ongoing series that will likely go into usual Trigger insanity soon enough

Seriously, I hate how basically none of the series this season will have satisfying endings.

Sad but true.
I myself waited until the second season started airing to watch the first one, and it's really good but it requires from the viewer to sit down and pay attention while watching. It's easier to just watch an anime with cute retarded girls, and there are plenty of those each season.

I have to admit hearing Aqua cry is delightful

The fuck are you talking about? This season is a godsend after the yaoi infested hell that was last season.

I can probably bear with Gabriel not having an ending. it looks like a comedy show without any main plot going, just them doing their everyday life.

Based on the OVAs, I think LWA is not going insane.

The yaoi last season was only a problem if you chose to watch those shows.

>The anime last season was only a problem if you chose to watch it.

Both of those endings are ongoing-manga/S1-tier.

Still this season at least we have more shows to enjoy. Last season save three or four series it was pretty much backlog for me.

Are you seriously implying that every anime that starting airing last fall pandered to fujoshi?

>LWA is not going insane.
Nigga what?
>First OVA
>Starts with a scavenger hunt
>ends with A GIANT MAGIC DRAGON GETTING NUKED
>Second OVA
>starts with parade shenanigans
>ends with a group fight against a giant

They fucking fought a giant chicken in the first episode.
This show is clearly going to go insane as it nears it's end.
Not sure if they'll get a main villain/plot anytime soon, but could see it getting to that point if only for the last few episodes.

>that counts as insane
Having a fight with a monster in a fantasy setting isn't "insane". It's fucking MLP-tier plot complexity. Have you not watched any other trigger anime, or any other anime in general?

I mean, they're clearly not "Ultimate Lifeform from Sonic Adventure 2" levels of crazy, but for OVAs, it was up there, especially the dragon as a "this could end the school" kind of threat.

I'm saying that now that they have 25 FUCKING EPISODES, there's no way they're just gonna do 25 episodes of "lesson of the week".
At some point, even if just the last 2-3 episodes, there's gonna be a much larger, crazier threat leading into the classic SASUGA TRIGGER ending.

We probably won't get any blood in this series, but they've already shown they're not afraid to hurt these cute little witches.

Why aren't you watching AOTY?

>there's no way they're just gonna do 25 episodes of "lesson of the week".
>this concept is not interesting enough to stretch this long, so they won't
You didn't watch Ninja Slayers, did you?

Considering Ninja Slayer had various arcs focusing around different characters, I don't think you did

>SoL about a dude with an inspections officer job in a socialist state
It's not pretentious but not really something guaranteed to catch interest, something that could work just as well as a live action

At least I'm pretty confident I know what the absolute worst show of the season is this time. Although I'm not going to stop watching it.

spiritpact might actually be worse

>26 12-13 minute episodes
>Literally still took 3 episodes involving the final fight

Little Witch Academia is both twice as long, an original series that doesn't have to follow any pre-existing material, and is clearly getting Trigger's all.

How the fuck do you not think they're going to have some kind of plot even for the last few episodes, and that they won't have an absolutely explosive, insane ending?

Wait really? That's amazing. Downloading now.

i am now. Dragon ball super looks cool

Kemono Friends isn't even as ugly as Hand Shakers, never mind as bad. And there's Spiritpact.

>filename
Sergals originate from a Japanese artist to begin with.

Kind of. Winter is rarely a great season since it has so few shows.

It's a pretty good season for /u/ with Doga Kobo and KyoAni on deck. Those shows both do a good job at what they do, but they won't impress anyone who isn't broken enough to enjoy CGDCT.

It's still early, but Little Witch Academia doesn't feel like it's going to be as ambitious as TRIGGER's other great works. It's still a great show, and still the lead contender for AOTS.

KonoSuba has upset some people but I think most fans are still enjoying it.

There's not a lot left to sort through. ACCA, Rakugo, and Youjo Senki are all OK.

Doga Kobo isn't making a yuri show.

>satisfying endings
Shows with satisfying endings show up maybe once or twice a year.

Are you retarded? It's almost shot for shot the same as the manga.

There's more going on this season than last.

Last season had hibike season 2 and izetta I guess. Then a bunch of other niche shit that was mostly fujo-shit.

This season we have at least two quality cute girls shows, a good comedy, a couple drama shows, and a rom com. The quality of show is way higher than last season. Nothing that'll stand out after spring or summer but way better than the shit they've been serving us.

Its pure trash
Next season there is tons of manime which I dont care much for but it will make Sup Forums more fun at least

Once a decade more like

I really should stop watching anime period, I cant remember the last time I enjoyed it.

Wait, how can anything be uglier than Kemono Friends? I might just have to check out Hand Shakers to confirm.

Isn't winter usually a weak season?

GoHands finds a way

I mean, I only picked up LWA and Youjo Senki this season and I'm enjoying them both so I can't complain.

get taste

THESE.
ACCA, Rakugo, Onihei, Yami Shibai S4, & Nyanko Days are the BEASTS.

>Is it just me, or is this season kind of shit?
It's only you. Since you're always watching Moshit from time to time such as Maid Dragon, Gabriel, & Urara.

>SoL
>two episodes in and it's already a deeply threaded spy drama
did you even watch

You listed crap that doesnt need to be anime or that has bad writing.

>You listed crap that doesnt need to be anime or that has bad writing.

>Onihei

that anime is just garbage

Dragon Maid is literally shoujo ai.

No don't worry it's just like every season there's people like you with shit taste.

I want to like ACCA, but the writing is crazy and not in a good sense of the word. Exposition is fucking everywhere and almost everything so far has "happened" through a conversation. It just doesn't have a good storytelling.

Rakugo which is literally a show about talking has unironically had more action so far.

I'm giving it a chance, though, because the concept itself is interesting.

So what you are saying that you are new?

>Rakugo which is literally a show about talking has unironically had more action so far.

You must be joking, Rakugo is a show about performances and drama the pacing is not slow at all, ACCA in the other hand is mostly just SoL.

It's a niche show about an even more niche topic.

It doesn't help that the MC is a literal cuck who is raising his wife's son after she got knocked up by a Yakuza.

Still not what being a cuckold means.

3-gatsu no lion
LWA
Konosuba 2's last episode was the best so far

Gb2/v/, you are in good company there. They get off on denouncing everything as shit 24/7.

ACCA is weird because it acts like a SoL and yet it keeps throwing in some pretty obvious hints that it isn't a SoL. Which is what annoys me about it.

Rakugo is all about bitches and whores, there is not a single decent girl in this anime.

>Onihei
no

>Konosuba
>AOTS
how to spot a literal retard

>purity fags

I actually enjoy this winter more then the last few winters, hell its probably the best since 2011.
