Tsubasa S1 eps 10-16

Slowly getting through this, finding it ok so far nothing great though. Only eps that i've really liked are the ones where they gained kudan powers but the rest so far are just ok.

This show does have potential so i was wondering if Season 2 is any better and worth getting?

Episodes 17-26 (basically the final arc of the first season) are much, much better - the tone gets much darker/more melancholic and while I still think the show suffers from some very poor production values, these episodes have some real standout moments and a greatly improved tone.

I was that series and to be honest I was disappointed .......but the ovas and specials did a much much better job but if you want to know more about the story......read it's manga or novels.
 
Not technically Anime, but last night I watched the first live action adaptation for Rurouni Kenshin.

Loved the part when Sanosuke breaks up the fight so he can eat chicken and drink wine!

If you like reading manga, that really is the best way to experience Tsubasa. Partway through Season 2, the plot departs from the manga completely. The OVA's are fantastic, but they do not follow on directly from the anime.

If you decide to watch Season 2 and want to watch the OVA's later, then when the group leave the library is the moment the plot diverges and you would move onto the Tokyo Revelations OVA's. A few crucial arcs have not been animated between this and the Spring Thunder Chronicle (Shunraiki) OVA's. I would suggest perhaps reading a summary of those missing arcs, because it will most likely be confusing otherwise.

Hope this helps!
 
Caught up with about half the shows I'm watching/planned to watch now I'm home from Holiday, so far in my servery jet lagged state over the past couple days I've seen:

Log Horizon Season 2 - Episodes 14-15
Aldnoah Zero Season 2 - Episodes 1-2
Ass Class - Episodes 1-2
Tokyo Ghoul Season 2 - Episodes 1-3
The Rolling Girls - Episodes 1-2

Rolling girls is the top one thus far, loving every element of it.
 
Bakemonogatari ep3 (rewatch)

I think this is still my favourite episode. It says so much about the quality of the dialogue and the art direction that 20 minutes of little more than talking heads could be so entertaining.
