Small recap so far:
Milky Holmes - The new director tries his best and almost succeeds in capturing the magic of the original seasons. Definitely worth a watch for MH fans
Absolute Duo - Absolutely forgettable and boring. There are literally thousands of better animes to waste your time with. Drop.
Yuri Kuma Arashi - Another one of the weird ones full of symbolic and with a ridiculous premise. Really fun to watch. Good chances for AOTS.
Miritari - Enjoyable short but rather garden variety than anything special
Kantai Collection - Has pretty much surpassed my expectations. Absolutely competently executed. Should be enjoyable throughout. Don't want to compare it with Strike Witches or Arpeggio. All of them are quite diffrent even though they have a similar premise.
Shinmai Maou no Testament - Generic demon harem but aptly done. Could prove more entertaining than Highschool DxD.
Tokyo Ghoul root A - Starts off strong and has a ballsy OP, which I respect. Looks like it's gonna finally get interesting.
Saekano - Surprisingly enjoyable and very self aware harem. Looks great, sounds good, enjoyable characters and a good amount of fanservice to top it off. If you only watch one harem anime this season, this is it.
Koufuku Graffiti - Feels like Shinbo has taken a back seat for this one. Barely any of his visual quirks in this one. Enjoyable slice of life with an atmosphere similar to Hidamari Sketch.
Juuou Mujin no Fafnir - See Absolute Duo.
Idolmaster Cinderella Girls - Slow start. Doesn't seem to be much like the original but could become really enjoyable once the cast gets rolling.
Ansatsu Kyoushitsu - Another case of an anime hyped by mainstream that doesn't amount to much. It lives by its premise but has no substance with mediocre direction. I'd rather watch another season of Akuma no Riddle. Will see how it fares in the next episodes but it's definitely a drop candidate.
Death Parade - Looks fun but the first ep was not much to go by of how the anime will play out. I guess it's gonna be very formulaic with a twist at the end. Either way quite enjoyable to watch.
I absolutely love its OP though. It radiates so much fun :)
