Might as well just make something of a thoughts thingy :/

I'll go alphabetically to make it slightly more presentable. Be mindful that I only had time to pursue the stuff I could watch consistently due to having College apps, so I can't give accurate thoughts.

1. Comet Lucifer - So I just have the eps sitting in my drive and I've just been skimping them due to time constraints, but all I got was a forced attempt to appeal to my emotions and while it worked to some degree, it didn't stop my mind from registering it as bullshit. Visually stunning bullshit, but that's the 'sprinkles' principle for you. I couldn't get what kind of immersion they wanted. Reminded me of Plastic Memories to some degree but without the depth.

2. Digimon Adventure Tri- Now don't kill me, but I still haven't made time to binge the whole part, but a friend of mine who is a die-hard fan said it ruined his childhood and while I wouldn't go that far, from what I've seen, it does sorta feel different from all the Digi-content we've gotten over the years.

3. Dragon Ball Super - Doesn't really count, but I must say something about it. Jesus, how do you make such a shitfest? I found problems with the Movie version, but it was still a great Dragon Ball anime. The TV version of those events are abysmal and grating. I... I can't.

4. Fairy Tail - What to say; the episodes during this season run had ups and downs but I'd say the finale was pretty damn decent and if you think about it, it is the finale of a long-running shounen adaptation that counts in the end because many cases result in an ani-only ending. Other than the finale though, everything else was choppy and cringe-worthy especially if you removed the music.

5. Gakusen Toshi Asterisk - This one was a kicker I tell you. XD When it aired, people were comparing it to Rakudai Kishi no Eiyuutan and that Rakudai was an inferior copy-paste. Boy was that a stupid statement. Both were shitty in their own ways, just that one got more budget than the other because it had more HAREM-BAIT. Rakudai has its flaws, but the LN tries hard to tackle typical tropes of the sub-genre differently, unlike Asterisk which thrives on every cliche in the book, along with a complete lack of logic at the moments where logic is all they are talking about -_-'

(might as well put this here since I mentioned it above)

5.5. Rakudai Kishi no Eiyuutan - Definitely a very cheap-ass adaptation of a LN that had more substance than many of its contemporaries. People may complain about characterization in all 3 main forms of the series, but the fact that people criticize the ACTUAL character and not the stereotype, goes to show that it was done right: Not perfect, but right. If you find issues with characters due to motivations specific to the world they live in and not the pasty attitudes exhibited by similar characters, then that means characterization is working. It's not meant to have uber-fresh characterization anyway, just a different approach to character traits you've seen dozens of times before. The pacing is screwed alright and only the LN is slightly better in that regard, but that much is expected if you wish to continue a series that subtely makes fun of many other LN with identical concept.

5. Garo The Crimson Moon - Yet another which I haven't had much time for(again, don't kill me) but I have to say that the difference in setting from the first Garo make it quite interesting.

6. Haikyuu!! - I have ALL the episodes of the entire anime so far, but have yet to binge them goddammit! I have issues with following sports anime weekly and in general find it better to marathon them, but finding time for near 40+ episodes is.....

7. Heavy Object - Ah Heavy Object... what am I gonna do with you? Not only do I not feel like doing a marathon of you, but I feel really out-of-it when you do tone shifts in such a random manner. Are you trying to be serious or not? Just more Comet Lucifer vibes here. Should light some incense sticks for Eureka 7....

8. K- Return of Kings - Didn't have time, so just gonna leave it in my drive for a while. I found the first K rather surprising due to the nature of the fanbase because the anime seemed to spit on those that supported it. I suppose it's not proper to rate it normally since it is a quirky series, but when put next to series like Durarara!! well.... opinions can greatly differ. If anything, I'd prefer if only the most hardcore anime viewers went for such series because many are clearly not ready to embrace such. Just my view though because I hate pointless argument.

9. Komori-san wa Kotowarenai! - WHY THE FLIPPIN HECK ARE YOU SO SHORT?!!!! So Danna wakaranai ken gets decent length and progression and you just go all random?! I still love you though <3 Better hope your sister series is even better!!! >:D

10. Gundam Iron-blooded Orphans - Still have to finish.... From what I've skimped, I'm getting a different feel from the Gundams I have seen, and it certainly was amusing to watch reactions to an ACTUAL harem LMAO. Other than that well.... since I am not a seasoned Gundam fan, I can't say. :(

11. Noragami Aragoto - I think I've praised this one way too much already. XD

12. One-punch Man - I find it funny how the hype and fanbase was not expected :P The manga itself is one of the most anticipated things I know of and has the ability to garner fans extremely rapidly and at levels I doubt even Boku no Hero Academia can match. I hardly rate it as a masterpiece and even my die-hard friends don't give it a 10/10 because they understand the point of the series, it's a glorified parody with no shame about being a nerdy superhero geeks hobby. I just find it odd that people started sharing the 'Saitama is stronger than Goku' only now even though that was established like, couple years ago maybe. I certainly do find it troubling to see OPM in every shounen meme now, but it's expected going by the mindset of most superpower fans. I hate that people are making 'Vs.' stuff though because Saitama is built to be the 'Overpowered Man' with no equal.

13. Owarimonogatari - Nothing much to say about it. If you like the monogatari series, you like the monogatari series. If you don't like it, chances are high that you just don't want to be bothered rattling your brain and avoiding insanity.

14. Sakurako-san
