Gotta make way for two-and-a-half months of posting nothing followed by a week of furious typing.
The Rankings – Part 3
Persona 5 cannot come soon enough.
Yaoi!!! on Ice – Cancer
tl;dr: Gay boys do gay things. Namely, ice skating.
Manga/Light Novel: N/A.
Animation Production: MAPPA
Normally you can count me down for gay shit, but Ice is flaming, and not in a good way.Much like classical is the worst of all music, ice skating is the worst of all sports. Put ’em together and whaddya get? Dark_Sage having to masturbate to normal porn. Gross.
Shit, throw these faggots some rollerblades, gimme an otoko no ko, and play some electronic in the background… Basically, just give me Air Gear, but with characters whose euthanasia wouldn’t give me a hard-on.
All Out!! – Meh
tl;dr: Buff boys beat on one another’s bodies.
Manga: http://bato.to/reader#1c1fbc728362a562
Light Novel: N/A.
Animation Production: Madhouse | TMS Entertainment
This is me except I’m tall, and chicks want the D_S, and old guys only want me to work for them… Fuck, I can’t relate to this at all. ;_;
Whatever, All Outs is some legit bara shit. I can’t really jerk off to it, but for those of you with low-tier taste… I bet you can get there. Just don’t expect a solid sports series, cuz All Outs barely learned anything from its predecessors — characters are poorly defined, the central conflicts are unappealing, and the plot is about as rotten as the show’s target audience.
It took until the very end of volume two for me to even slightly relate to the characters, and that is way too fucking late. Low effort, low quality, do not want.
ClassicaLoid – Nothx
tl;dr: “We fired all our sound guys. Find some way to make all our music royalty free or this studio’s shutting down.”
Manga/Light Novel: N/A.
Animation Production: Sunrise
Show’s more cardboard than the cellular makeup of a Pizza Hut pizza.
Long Riders! – Rating
tl;dr: High school girl bicycling club slice-of-life comedy. A description as emotionless as the show will be.
Manga/Light Novel: N/A.
Animation Production: Actas
I dropped Bakuon and I’ll drop this too.
Sangatsu no Lion (March Comes in Like a Lion) – Shaft is never terrible but this’ll be their worst show
tl;dr: Some emo kid plays shogi and everyone likes him cuz he’s just so moody and introspective and cool.
Manga: http://www.gomymanga.com/manga/3_Gatsu_no_Lion/1/1
Light Novel: N/A.
Animation Production: SHAFT
It’s Shaft, so it won’t be bad, but when was the last time Shaft did anything legitimately exciting? (The answer is 2011.)
Trash characters, trash plot, trash pacing… The manga took literature back half a century. If I wanted boredom I’d go to an IRC channel. No thank you.
Udon no Kuni no Kiniro Kemari (Poco’s Udon World) – Good
tl;dr: Mass-murderer/rapist Souta Tawara returns from one of his nightly adventures only to discover a young girl on his porch. On a whim, he decides to take her in and raise her as his successor. But all she wants to do is eat Udon! Thus begins a whacky adventure with a lot of laughs, a few tears, and a whole lot of snuff~
Manga/Light Novel: N/A.
Animation Production: LIDEN FILMS
>show about a kid growing up
Out.
>show about a kid growing up but she’s totes kemonomimi mode
In.
Fune wo Amu (The Great Passage) – Boycotting this shit
tl;dr: I dunno, it’s some tryhard whatever.
Manga/Light Novel: N/A.
Animation Production: ZEXCS
I don’t need to be reminded of how old I am. Pass.
Keijo!!!!!!!! (Hip Whip Girl) – Excellent
tl;dr: !!!!!!!!
Manga: http://bato.to/reader#4c7f4ded7d22ce42
Light Novel: N/A.
Animation Production: Xebec
I am going to be straight with you, dear reader: I like girls. So a show in which nee-sans rub their booties and bosoms over one another… well, it sort of speaks to me personally, y’know?
Regardless of the budget, or its objective quality, I feel like I would lose something as a man — nay, as a human being — if I were to label this show with anything less than the Excellent rating it deserves.
You’re welcome.
Flip Flappers – Okay
tl;dr: MahouShoujo.mkv
Manga/Light Novel: N/A.
Animation Production: Studio 3Hz
I have no fucking idea. By all rights, this should be terrible. None of the trailers I saw looked good, but at the same time, I felt there was something there.
…Oh yeah, it was lesbians with fluffy tails. Will watch.
In Summary
This season is a let down.
