I'm quite pleased with the season thus far.  

Chio's School Road and Asobi Asobase are both about school girls being assholes to one another and that's awesome.  The former is more character driven and the latter is a bit more absurdist but they are both very funny.

Cells at Work is interesting and a nice change of pace.  Reminds me of Moyashimon somewhat, which was an excellent anime that doubled as a science lesson.

Both of the new sports anime have been surprisingly good.  Hanebado! has excellent supporting characters.  I've been very impressed with how well they written.  Harukana Receive ep. 2 pulled me in and made me invested in the main characters.  Blonde twins next week?  

Angels of Death is interesting and oddly fun despite being horror-ish.

Drop Kick on my Devil! feels clever and has good character designs but somehow isn't as funny as it should be.  It's still amusing, though, and I love the angel.

Angolmois: Record of Mongol Invasion should be an entertaining ride.  Hard to say after only one episode but it had a good start.

Grand Blue, like a lot of lowbrow comedies, dances all over the line between annoying and hilarious.  The manga leans on the same jokes a LOT in the first several chapters (alcohol and nudity related) but I'm guessing the anime is going to be more concise so it can fit in more stuff so that probably won't be as much of an issue.  Maybe.  Also, the hot otaku guy just kills me.

I watched another Isekai.  Master of something.  Well, I watched the first few minutes and skimmed the rest.  The first one was okay but this one was terrible.  It had that "chuunibyou" vibe to it.  

Still several I haven't watched.

Edit:  Forgot about High Score Girl!  I've been meaning to get back into the manga.  I stopped reading it when it went on hiatus thanks to that SNK lawsuit, which was pretty silly considering it gave them free publicity.  It's set in the 1990s and is about a boy who basically lives for gaming, especially Street Fighter II.  That is, until he gets his ego totally wrecked by a pretty, popular, and much admired classmate, who is better than him at pretty much every game.  It's especially interesting for anyone who likes or lived through that period in video-game history.
