Fleet Collection is kind of a meh show. I believe I'll like the fights, at least given how they have interesting ways of using special attacks and I liked how they equip those, and the CG isn't really bad, but I don't really like, well, anyone so far.

Except for a someone.

"PAN-PA-KA-PAN!"

ShinMaou aka Demon Contractor: She is the belevolent Maous daughter, and her familliar, he is from some kind of hero clan, the sister part is nonexistant. It seems like trash for now, awaiting the contractual shenanigans for comedy value if nothing else.

Absolute Duo: Liking the yandere? shy stalker and reaction of her focused male, will watch for comedy.

KanColle: Remove Fubuki, focus more on the "healthier" ships, and it would be some 3 times better. It will be suffering to watch Fubuki being shitty fanservice pandering character. Plane fairies ;_;7.

Kuma Arashi: So, we get human eating bears, that transform into girls, then eat honey of each other (innuendo), then the girls are alive again. I will just remove myself from wherever it's showing.


Now for stuff that is yet to air:
Aldnoah Zero S2: Recap episode was good, mostly due to it's awesome soundtrack, while they are still keeping us in suspense about Inaho, I have a feeling they will finally show him at the end of episode 1 (13) for maximum trolling.

DRRRR S2: Opening song is growing on me, awaiting the glorious Izaya twin sisters.

Tokyo Ghoul Root: Some talks about Kaneki shifting to another route in the anime, it actually might be fun if it is so, would be fun to see more of his "sisters". Half killing implied to be interrupted in those same talks, so I am kinda wavering, it will be a comedy either way.

Dog Days S3: Doki, doki, waku, waku.

Of the rest I will have to at least check the first episode to see if it is worth for some kind of fun, luckily there are a few 2nd cours still running that are good.

Assassination Classroom is quite good, quite good. I don't think it's the same voice as the one from J-Stars Victory Vs. and there's not as much 'nururururu' as I thought there might be, but everything's good, everyone's got fun colored hair, the opening and ending are quite good, and there's a pretty good sense of dread or intensity during many episodes.

Now to see if I can get Happy Meal Graffiti to work. I'm considering it, but it just doesn't load!

There are too many Maou/Hero subvert hero fighting overlord anime now. It's not a similar theme, it's the same basic idea over and over. And Hataraku Maou didn't get a second season!

The Rolling Girls is a non-offensive KILL la KILL, but it doesn't seem to be much less crazy.

The animation is certainly reminding me of it, but less sharp on several aspects. Fights are quite visceral, what with their slowdowns and all, and every blow is felt quite well. There's also more locales in mind, so while we aren't seeing as much of an insane school and neighboring town, I'm hoping they'll at least expand well throughout the series.

Also, it has a guy with a crocodile for a head. Sideways. I can't hate a series like this.

So far I have three animes to keep track of come April. Wonder how many I'll be adding to that list, if any...

Thursdays have become a clustertruck of various stuff:
Ghoul>Clockblocking>NTRdayo>Some kind of unwanted yuri show>Gundam Reco>FafnIr>Fafner

Clockblocking seemed somewhat fun if I ignore the forgotten childhood tsundere one.
Yuri cookoff was not interesting in any way whatsoever.
Fafnir seems so generic it's downright invisible, I might just leave it for 10 min marathon when it's done.
Fafner I might check out, just to check if it's less bad then it's prequels I couldn't get around to continue watching.

ShinmaiMaou has started a bit lackluster, redhead goes from kyaa to grinding within a day and then back to kyaa, he needs to plow one of them hard for me to get interested in this, if they keep it at this for the whole season I will not suffer it.

Military started off hillarious, will watch for wacky hijinks.

Kancolle makes me cheer for Abyssals, I hope they wipe out all useless moeblob shipgirls in their sight.

DRRRRx2 started of excellent.
Aldnoah.Zero continues to be fun.

Death Parade is a very good surprise of the season, didn't check out the standalone episode before it, checked it right after the first episode and was vey pleasantly surprised with it, a very good show.

Assassination Classroom seems kinda interesting, will watch.

An Otaku's Heroine is more amusing than I expected. In a few ways, it was funnier than the last mangaka series, though I admit it's an early and somewhat lousy start that does nothing but build up a harem focus that's somewhat meaningless.

Still, a show about an otaku getting a bunch of girl otakus to work for him for a visual novel is more interesting than I expected, and at least I have some fun ideas in mind for this show that I want to see more of. But they probably won't happen, so sad.

I'll check up on Bloody Maria later. Seems like they're not updating or something...
