Eps 1-12 of Valvrave the Liberator...very good. Must get 2nd half. I knew about that certain episode and wow that was a bit hard to watch especially what was going on at the same time.
 
Shirobako-Episodes 22-24 Complete

Episode 23: I didn't think Shirobako would have an action scene but it did. And it was glorious. Also, the ending almost got me to tear up. Almost.

Episode 24: Good finale episode. I especially liked that last scene. I'd definitely like a second season. One odd thing I found was that they were delivering the episode to the TV Stations on tapes. Assuming the show takes place in the year it was made, why would they still be using tapes? I would have thought it would be all digital. Obviously the people making an Anime about making Anime would know better than I do but I just found it a bit weird.

Hello!! Kiniro Mosaic-Episode 12 Complete

And now I have a large Kiniro Mosaic shaped hole in my life that nothing can fill. Season 3? Please? Pretty Please?

They still sell newspapers printed on actual paper. Cars still run on consumable fuel. Change on a massive corporate level is slow compared to change on a consumer level, especially in Japan where "middle management" is the name of the biggest game in town.

It's not just to TV stations. Western distributors also tend to receive home video materials via tape (e.g. Gurren Lagann), although as I understand it they are more likely to be sent a HDD with the source files on nowadays.
 
They deliver physical ones due to reliability - the file sizes involved mean they take too long to transfer over the Internet when deadlines are looming (and connections could go down without warning)
 
Arslan Senki - Episodes 5 - 10
Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works - Episode 24
Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken S2 - Episode 12
Nisekoi 2 - Episodes 9 & 10
Owari no Seraph - Episode 12

Having a big catch up session. I can honestly say that Arslan is quickly becoming my favorite show of the season. Sucks that the only options to view it (Officially and Unofficially) are SD Viewster streams or HD Funi streams with utterly screwed contrast and crushed blacks.
 
DanMachi e.12 - Hestia GDLK on so many levels. Coolest little thing about this episode was the motorway petrol station-esque prices with the floor 18 vendors.

Guess it's the last episode for a while next week. :-/
 
Ep 35 of World Trigger
Eps 4-12 of Shokugeki no Soma
Eps 1-12 of Knights of Sidonia
Ep 11 of Kekkai Sensen
Ep 12 of Owari no Seraph
Ep 12 of Arslan Senki
 
009-1 ep 3.

Baby Steps s2 ep 12. He almost had it, yet I'm sure he'll grow from this defeat.

I Can't Understand What My Husband Is Saying: 2nd Thread s2 ep 9-11.

The Dissapearance of Nagato Yuki-chan ep 12.

Repressing your emotions is unhealthy, let it all out I say.

Related to the above, sometimes I'm a bit over-emotional. I almost lost it when Shino said "hello" on the phone. Those one liners are dangerous (well, kind of two lines if you include the response).

I really hope they do a third season, at least the new Non Non Biyori is supposed to start on the 6th of July.

I loved that bit too. That and the name of the episode name itself got to me a bit. Also, Non Non Biyori S2 does ease the pain a bit.

Maybe too much "cute girls doing cute things" makes you more vulnerable. Totally worth it.

Have you watched "Is The Order A Rabbit?" yet? It's supposed to have a second season this year too. Sadly, no second season of Yuyushiki has been announced (yet?... maybe). I vaguely recall reading something about a possible GJ Bu (/GJ Club) sequel, although I'm not sure if that was just the special they did.

I haven't seen any of those shows actually. As much as I do love Cute Girls Doing Cute Things and Slice of Life in general I actually haven't seen too many of them. See for yourself http://myanimelist.net/animelist/IncendiaryLemon

To be fair, there are plenty I haven't seen myself. I still haven't seen K-On, for example.

I'd suggest additions to your list but you've got plenty to watch already by the look of it.
