What animoos are you guys watching right now?

[stringtheory]

What anime are you watching and what do you think so far?

Log Horizon Season 2
Anime about being stuck in a database video game.

Studio Deen is really screwing this one up. I don't know why I'm surprised honestly. I loved S1 but basically nothing is happening this season. They also made Akatsuki's hair look weird in some places. I know that's incredibly pedantic, but it drives me crazy.

Also watching and for the most part enjoying.
Eh, for the most part DEEN's been a downgrade for the animation I have to agree, but the story's been following the Light Novels as closely as it was in Season 1 (same writers, just different animation studio). Volume 6 (Akatsuki's arc right now) is rather slow from our perspective, but it should pick way up next episode. Shiroe's raid should also get really interesting in an episode or two whenever we see his party again. Right now the show's just laying the ground work for the big end of volume reveals, since they've decided to do both arcs at the same time.

I fucking love Space Dandy! I'm trying to find a pompadour wig for cosplay.

 

[Arina Love]

From ongoing ?

Nanatsu no Taizai - Pretty good so far.

Ore, Twintails ni Narimasu - nice and insane, just as i like.

Log Horizon 2 - Continuing tradition season 2 is superb.

Denki-gai no Honya-san - nice comedy + romance (????) + some strange stuff mixed in, so far so good.

Gugure! Kokkuri-san - EXCELLENT AOTS

Inou Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de - decent, likable characters.

Madan no Ou to Vanadis - decent, not much to say about.

Shingeki no Bahamut - Genesis - good action and that's about it.

Yowamushi Pedal - Grande Road - PEDAL AWAY YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARDS

Amagi Brilliant Park - Boring, i'm on the verge of drop. KyoAni hasn't been good since Nichijou.

 

[JagermanXcell]

Toonami's current lineup consists of Gurren Lagann (already seen, but it's too hype to not watch in pieces again), One Piece in one if it's best arcs, and Hellsing Ultimate (all dubs are done, so yeah, looking forward to how this series ends).

Other than those three oldies, nothing of interest these last few seasons.
Waiting patiently for Jojo to end the hiatus in January.

 

[EHKOS]

Caught up on One Piece again, got the urge for more treasure hunting and watched Outlaw Star and had a ball.

Now I just watched the first episode of Gurren Lagunn...not quite sure what to think about it yet.

I love Firefly so I was surprised that I never really liked Cowboy Bebop. I still see it as a shame. Especially with Steve Blum at the helm.

Was pretty disappointed at the deus ex machina thing in OS, and with it you'd think Jean (shut up that's how I want it spelled) would have at least asked for the Outlaw Star to stop being damaged. It seems they spent a treasure just to keep the damn thing running.

Recently ran through the Z.O.E. games and am pondering watching the animu about it.

Also, does anyone else hate half of the costume changes in One Piece? I loved Brook's first look, hate the rest. Nami doesn't do anything besides manage to get a bigger bust every new arc, Franky just looks absurd after the timeskip. And Usopp...well he actually looks cool but as far as character goes, he could have died on Water 7 for all I care.

 

[Risingblade]

Watching Build fighters Try while Akame ga kill and Recongista are on hold for the moment.

 

[Spectrix]

I watch a lot of anime so let me try to break it up.
Current Shows
Yona of the Dawn - It looked interesting and a friend of mine was watching it too. It's pretty interesting so far.
Psycho-Pass 2 - Watched the first season with the above mentioned friend and loved it. I'm liking this one so far.
Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works Loved Fate/Zero and liked the original anime. I'm loving this one so far but I have the problem of always thinking of Archer as Space Dandy because they have the same VA.
Terra Formars - The name sounded cool but I had no idea what it was about until I started watching it.
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Crystal - Never really got into it when I was younger but I watched a bit of the original and liked it. This is pretty good but it took me a bit to get used to the differences between it and the original.
Sword Art Online II - I liked the first one a bit and once I heard Miyuki Sawashiro was in this one, I knew I was going to like it. I wasn't entirely wrong.

Long Runners
One Piece - Currently in the last part of the Fishman Island saga but keep stalling due to other things.
Detective Conan - My favorite anime. Praise be to the lords at Crunchyroll for picking that up.

Others:
Cardcaptor Sakura - My same friend also loves just about everything CLAMP and I just got a free 30 day trial of Crunchyroll so I decided to watch this.
Code Geass Rewatching it dubbed. Pretty good so far.
Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's [Obligatory "Card Games ... on Motorcycles! joke here.] I've been watching it on and off again because I got a desire to watch something Yu-Gi-Oh! and this was the one with the most Japanese episodes available.

Other than that, I've stalled on Ace of the Diamond and the original Sailor Moon anime because I've got so much else to watch. I was trying to get my sister into anime by doing a "I watch an episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer, she watches 2 episodes of anime with me" deal but she's been dragging her feet since we watched the third episode of Buffy and the fourth episode of Trigun.

So yeah, I tend to watch a lot. It helps that I have a lot of free time on my hands right now.

 

[Benpasko]

Now I just watched the first episode of Gurren Lagunn...not quite sure what to think about it yet.

The first episode is legitimately the worst of the whole series. And the second episode is the second worst. It's all uphill, the entire time. Do it.

 

[Saetha]

Have you tried using an ethernet cable? My dorm's wifi is ass, so I just went old-school. It gets fidgety if I move my laptop and the cord gets tangled around everything, but my connection's a lot better now. I can actually stream stuff!

[small]You have no idea how condescending that sounds to me.[/small]

Oh... sorry. There are a... startling number of computer-shy people where I live. I'm used to people who haven't got the first idea what to do when a computer acts up.

 

[Kaimax]

Akame ga Kill!
(Last season leftover)
Amagi Brilliant Park
(Obligatory KyoAni Anime, not bad but kinda slow paced)
Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon: Crystal
(Now 25years old and watching this made me wonder why I liked the old one lol...so much cheese)
Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken
(Obligatory otaku life anime)
Denki-gai no Honya-san
(Another Obligatory fanservice/Otaku life anime)
Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works (TV)
(THANK YOU UFOTABLE GODS)
Gugure! Kokkuri-san
(Eventhough intended to be funny but most of the time its either: "The Punch line is weak, mistimed or just plain unfunny. Mainly watching this for Kohina.)
Gundam Build Fighters Try
(GENKAI NANTE NAI~~~~)
Gundam: G no Reconguista
(Finally a new Gundam directed by Tomino himself, kind of weird at times, and the cheese is strong with this one)
Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de
(An "Chuunibyou" anime, where it became "real", also an anime that makes "cool" namings it's main gag)
Log Horizon 2nd Season

Madan no Ou to Vanadis
(Cool medieval fantasy anime with cute girls and a strong male protagonist)
Psycho-Pass 2
(It's a Sequel, so must watch)
Shirobako
(An anime about creating anime, PA Works redeemed itself after the mind-numbingly stupid Glass Lip. This one has an actual balance on the conflict and the cutesy parts.)
Sword Art Online II
(At least it doesn't have ALO anymore lol)
World Trigger
(Obligatory Shonen Jump title, There's also "Nanatsu no Taizai", but I can't seem to get hooked on the anime even though I'm currently reading the manga)

Yeah, I like watching plenty of new animes, usually around 15 to 20 new titles each season. and I rarely have a back log.

 

[Rahkshi500]

Currently just watching some old favorites of mine;

Zatch Bell: My gateway to anime/manga. I've forgotten how mature and dramatic this show can be while still keeping a lot of the fun, silly, and awesome elements that shonen manga often has.

Zoids-New Century Zero: Giant robot animals, f-yeah! Though I wished there was more character development and such.

Project ARMS: Definitely an underrated series. I wish there were more awesome sci-fi series like this one.

 

[Foolery]

Deathnote. Gets fucking stupid after episode 10 though, very repetitive. Still fun to watch, mostly for L and his oddities.

 

[Julius Terrell]

Still watching my long time mainstay Naruto and I recently started watching Fate/Zero.

As far as Naruto is concerned I'm truly going to be sad when this show ends. I've devoted 10+ years to show, and have cried countless times. I'm going to miss eagerly awaiting a new(canon) episode.

As far as fate/zero is concerned, this show is fucking bad ass. I want to see this current plot played to it's conclusion. The animation and soundtrack is just too good to be true. I'm really curious as to what kind of budget did this show get.

 

[Elvis Starburst]

Sword Art Online II
(At least it doesn't have ALO anymore lol)

Spoiler

......................... Oh my.

OT: Re-watching Clannad at the moment! All the feels, man... So good x.x

 

[Ikaruga33]

I just finished Samurai Flamenco, what a good goddamn show. It starts off as kick-ass for sentai, then promptly loses its goddamn mind. (Like, a JoJo level of 'loses its mind'!) When I finished, and the explanation plot-twist WASN'T 'it was all a dream', I was shocked. That's how nuts this show goes. It's on netflix, go watch it.

Mah fucking nigga. I love Samurai Flamenco so much.

Anyone else watching Shingeki no Bahamut? That show surprised me so much.
It's just based on a shitty card game, it has no right to be so good.

 

[crazygameguy4ever]

why call it animoos.. what the heck is animoos? the ANIME i'm watching right now are Naruto Shippuden, Hyakko(sucks it's not dubbed and only 13 episodes long, cause it's really funny and interesting) and Fairy Tail, which I thought was kind of dumb at first until i tried watching it again and found out it's not really that bad.. it's not Bleach or Soul Eater level of good, but it's still pretty good.. oh and I started re-watching School Rumble on DVD.. it's a great anime that I haven't watched a in a long time but still love it.

 

[CellShaded]

Just finished Steins;Gate. Gonna start with Tokyo Ghoul now. Only now getting back into Anime.

 

[Kaimax]

Sword Art Online II
(At least it doesn't have ALO anymore lol)

Spoiler

......................... Oh my.

OT: Re-watching Clannad at the moment! All the feels, man... So good x.x

Lol if you want the feels, the watch the current (and last) arc of the 2nd season. Mother Rosario, where Kirito isn't the main character.

 

[jhoroz]

I've finally took the bullet and decided to watch One Piece. Currently at ep 23 when Mihawk shows up for the first time. My impressions so far is that they weren't kidding when they said that it takes a while before the show gets going. The Usopp arc had a great set up, but the climax of that whole arc was way too dragged out there at the end. The show has begun to pick up with Zoro's backstory and Sanji's introduction, but that filler episode with that stupid guy stuck in the chest was absolute crap. Now that I'm approaching the Arlong arc, things will hopefully get more interesting since this is where people say One Piece really starts to come into its own.
