Watched the first 2 episodes of The Lost Village. Don't quite know what to make of it so far because nothing has happened yet, but I'm interested in the premise.

Intrigued to see where this goes seeing as I've seen it in many "worst of" lists as well as several "best of"!
 
Started to look into a couple other shows i had on the back-burner for the first time in ages:

Captain Earth episode 9 - Well, this show is still quite watchable, it's just a shame the show i hoped for isn't in there somewhere. Maybe it is, but just not at the 2/5ths mark. I'm hoping it gets better later. And at the same time, it feels like a show designed for marathoning than anything else. Probably because of the whole "monster of the week" feel it has to it.

Flip Flappers episode 3 - This show continues to baffle me and amaze me at the same time. This episode felt like i was missing something throughout it all, but at the same time i felt like it didn't matter because Hey Look! They are in the world of Mad Max meets Dragonball yo. Maybe it's just me, but i feel that might come back to hurt it later, having a weak story. But damn, they can design worlds well
 
Still ploughing through Ghost Stories (The Inferior Version), mainly in the background whilst doing projects (...and writing this post), all the classic jokes/lines in this version are just complete non-events in this version. Nearly finished though now.

Nyanko Days, Episode 1

ēlDLIVE, Episode 1

Interviews With Monster Girls, Episode 1

After a few seasons in the wilderness, I'm fresh and ready for Seasonal Anime once again! :)
 
Monogatari series: Second Season (Japanese audio) - Episodes 12-16

Finally sat down and watched Otorimonogatari (Episodes 12-15) and Omnibus III (Episode 16).
 
It's all about The Case of Hana & Alice for me at the moment. I can't even begin to tell you how big a fan I am of that film.

Before that, finished series 1 of Haikyu!!. Bring on series 2! :D
 
Dagashikashi ep6

This came back into my mind recently as something that I stopped watching without ever making any conscious decision to drop, but having gone back to it, I still can't decide if I want to finish it or not. It's a nice looking show and it has its moments, but I find the trainspotteringly intense discussion of sweets that I know nothing about begins to grate after a while.
 
KonoSuba-Episodes 9 and 10 (Complete)

All caught up in time for S2. Quite an enjoyable series, and I appreciate the efforts to actually have something resembling a plot, which most comedies sorely lack.

Gabriel Dropout-Episode 1

Pretty fantastic opening episode, managing to get consistent laughs from me throughout. That whole teleportation bit was golden, and actually had me laughing out loud. I'm always into series that are really high energy, and this really ticks that box, and of course the over cutesy art style is up my street. Favourite character of the cast so far is Satania, as her whole schtick really tickles me.

Blue Exorcist-Episodes 1 and 2 (Rewatch)

Since the new season has started, I thought it's high time I rewatched the first season. I'm not sure if I mentioned it before, but I remember rather disliking this show, so much so I was quite surprised that a lot of people seemed excited for a second season. Blue Exorcist caused me to go through a pretty bad slump, and it took me almost a whole month to get through it, which is unusual for me. I normally get through a single cour show in 3 or 4 days and a two cour show in about a week and a half, so for me to take so long is kind of a testament to how uninterested I was. Seeing these first couple of episodes again, I quite enjoyed it, although I remember quite enjoying the first handful of episodes the first go around too, so I'll see how it goes. For what it's worth, I'm watching with the Japanese audio this time around, to easier transition into the Kyoto arc.

Kizumonogatari Part 1

No a whole lot to say really, it's the Monogatari I love on a bigger budget, meaning it looks about 10x as pretty, which, considering how good looking Monogatari is anyway, is really saying a lot. Despite how much I loved Part 1, I can't help but feel as if Parts 2 and 3 will be better, by sheer virtue of most of the really good stuff, like Araragi fighting the vampire hunters and the scene in the shed, not happening until later in the book. Still, as I say, thoroughly enjoyed this.

March Comes In Like A Lion Episode 12 - Really like this episode, we're getting to see more of Rei and what he's really battling against. This show gets character development and imagery to help compliment it down so well, something to be expected from SHAFT in a way. What i also like too, which i know some may not, is the new opening. I feel like it helps portray what to expect from the second half of the series. You really get a look at Reis darkness at first, and now you get to see just how his mindset and his life is changing more in a positive, light manner. Well done i think honestly. Looking forward to how this continues on, still possibly my favourite series of autumn
 
A Certain Magical Index s1 ep 7-9. I'm getting the feeling this is one of those anime where no one ever dies (even the villains) no matter how serious their injuries are.
 
Blue Exorcist-Episodes 3-5 (Rewatch)

Still enjoying this so far. I can't remember exactly the point where I started to dislike it last time, but hopefully I breach that point without noticing.

ACCA 13-Episode 1

So this was pretty good? Not a whole lot happened, and I'm not exactly sure where it was going, but it managed to keep my interest. I'm assuming the whole show isn't going to be Jean going around doing audits, so I am curious as to what exactly is going to happen next. Really like the art style in this too, Madhouse continue to impress me.

Acca - Pretty good
Then Then Hand Shakers- What was this most of the ep was some woman moaning while get abused by some really bad 3D chains and she basically comes at the end and the guy powers up. The animation is trippy and looks **** and the characters were boring. So like Keijo dropped But this was a much much worse ep than Keijo ep 1
