Lameb!  I dropped it around episode 15 or 16.  I simply stopped caring.  Another contrived conflict, another food-duel, another win pulled from the hind-quarters.  It's Fairy Tail with grub.  The main character was OP and annoying and the "school" made no sense at all.  Why didn't those people go somewhere that actually taught them stuff?  I can watch anime about sexy cats piloting magical mecha but this anime strained my suspension of disbelief past the breaking point.

Like it or not, Koufuku Graffiti is the superior food anime.

In other news, I have no idea if Perfect Insider is going to be good or not.  More data needed.  It might be smart or it might just be pretentious, I couldn't tell.

Also, I really liked Tantei Team KZ.  Looking forward to more.

If we're counting carry-over anime, then Repeat really might be the best of the year.  The writing and direction are absolutely stellar.  It made me more emotionally involved than all the tragedy anime combined.  On top of that, it's often hilarous and original.  It's one of the few anime  from this year that I know I'm going to rewatch multiple times.

oooh lol my bad I thought Versus meant One-Punch Man lol. 

Well then now I am sorta dissapointed, its not gonna kill me atm. But still I watch the first episode and the watch the rest closer to next year

Oh hell nah. Imma take your complaints step by step.

1. Do we ever care when a school is entirely outlandish for anything else? Why care if this is just some hardcore chef school where you do more learning from other students than directly from the teachers? I didn't dig into Food Wars because I expected it to be a realistic representation of a cooking school. I mean, it's a shounen anime, not slice of life. Even then, they explain why people stayed at the school. By graduating from the school, you were basically designated a cooking god and could go anywhere you pleased to become a successful chef in whatever capacity you chose. There was a lot of incentive to surviving that hell.

2. I'm gonna have to spoiler some stuff here, but do recall that the MC is not perfectly victorious every time. The last one should be an actual spoiler for you, although I'm not sure what above it is a spoiler. You can just scroll through them to around the last thing you remember seeing if you don't want to be spoiled for the last third of the episodes.
At the start of the show, we see him immediately lose to his father in a food battle.
Getting into the school, despite what she really thinks, Erina still fails him. This just opens the door for a different trope, but he still technically lost.
In the Shokugeki against the professional chef, him and what's her face lost.
MC barely scrapes by during the hotel buffet breakfast challenge. Still trope-y, but not an absolute godly OP victory either.
In a Shokugeki versus his father in the dorm, he lost outright.
In the curry showdown, MC scores lower than the guy he was trying to beat, winning in one sense, but losing in what he was trying to do.

It was great seeing that although the MC was good, he still had a long way to go if he wanted to be great, with major stepping stones right in front of him that he couldn't immediately and magically overcome. He spends more time in what we see learning that he needs to improve more than we do seeing him sweep other people under the rug with his glorious and victorious skill. I mean, they emphasize the fact that the MC still has room to grow. Yeah, he's OP compared to amateurs, but he is still clearly outranked among the other student chefs.

Probably something a lot of people here are already aware of, but I thought it was interesting.

Explains why we don't hear about Japanese voice actor strikes...

Just got done with the first episode of Antimagic Academy and the heroine is very repulsive even by tsundere standards ...

A modern setting where the protagonists main weapon is a sword ?! Just how far is the author willing to push my suspension of disbelief ?

I won't drop this but we'll see soon enough if this holds up to what LN readers are promising ...

Yeesh, LN writers need to layoff on doing similar introductions to get better first impressions in the future ...

To be fair, in Lance N' Masques, the MC fights with a lance in a modern setting. It definitely pushes reality a bit, although seeing people respond with disbelief to the MC himself in Lance N' Masques helped solidfy that even for that setting, wandering around with a lance wasn't natural.

I think a major problem with a lot of fantasy based light novels though is that the writer tends to only go in with a basic idea, and for reference on how to start their story, they refer to other similar light novels. It just kind of creates a cycle of similar and somewhat lacking openings, which is certainly disappointing.

Having just watched the first episode of Anti-Magic Academy, I change my opinion a bit.

Just like Lance N' Masques, people see and actually point out how ridiculous it is to be wielding a sword while everybody else has handguns and rifles. Like Lance N' Masques though, the MC is highly skilled with his weapon of choice due to magic or whatever his ability is.

If many out there on the internet think that Reki Kawahara is a low hanging fruit when it comes to writing then maybe tons of authors should take the first 20 pages out of the first volume on his works ... 

Despite what extreme protesters say about his work he does do a good job on avoiding tropes and that's heavily reflected on the anime adaptions first debut when they don't go around shoving in tsunderes, fan service, and girls with big racks in the first episode ...

Fushigi na Somera-chan is a good short. I laughed. Do recommend at only about three minutes an episode.
