Super Ichigo being all badass was a plot point included to push movie sales - I mean the most bad ass point of Ichigo's history was made just to push people to see a subpar movie!

Don't get me wrong there's so many asspulls in Bleach it's nauseating and Ichigo happens to be the worst case but... Main character always gets special treatment, which is why I loved HxH. Gon didn't fight the King, fucking badass Netero did.

I have the weirdest boner for Mobile Suit Gundam Origins - mainly bc i couldnt stomach rewatching the original gundam series due to the dated animation. So seeing everything from Char's point of view is seriously AAA to me.

The manga for the 3rd arc of Re: Zero had the first five chapters released. Since the anime has caught up to the 2nd arc and will pass it on Sunday they decided to move on to the 3rd before finishing the 2nd.

Char is like Dr. Doom. The entirety of the Fantastic Four suck, we just want to see Dr. Doom fuck shit up and take over, same thing w/ Char. I mean fuck only w/ Char could they make a Mobile Suit, that is 10x awesomer than Nu Gumdam, Sazabi.

So I only really see people talking about Re:Zero and Kabaneri in here.

I caught up on Kabaneri last night and it's really good, but I just wonder why we need AoT:Zombieland when we could have just had more AoT.

Any other anime worth watching this season? Keep in mind I hate harem shows and don't really watch the slice of life type anime.

This season is pretty lackluster unless you like the slice of life or niche shows. Spring 2016 is basically the lowest number of watched series for me in years.

I'm still watching Big Order (for the trainwreck value), Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon Crystal Season III, Boku no Hero Academia, Flying Witch, Gakusen Toshi Asterisk 2nd Season (again trainwreck), Hundred. Koutetsujou no Kabaneri, Kuma Miko, Kuromukuro, Macross ?, Mayoiga, Netoge no Yome wa Onnanoko ja Nai to Omotta?, Nijiiro Days, Re:Zero kara Hajimeru and Sousei no Onmyouji,

Of those I'd only really recommend Boku no Hero Academia, Koutetsujou no Kabaneri, Netoge, Niijiro days and Re:Zero.

If you haven't watched Niijiro days, you really should. It's called Rainbow Days, it's about 4 pretty boys. Surprisingly enough, they're not gay, and spend the whole time messing with each other and chasing after girls. It's refreshing.

The rest are watchable depending on your tolerance for bullshit.

Next season hype though.

New Berserk
D.gray-man looks good
More Nanatsu no Taizai!
MORE SHOKUGEKI NO SOUMA.

Started watching Tower of Duraga or whatever (I keep saying Droga, stupid EQ!) seems interesting, the first episode was lulzy and it got me hooked, its still tropey and has the "this story could be told in 6 episodes but because characters don't communicate it will take 60" but I will see how far I make it.

edit: I know its old...sorry

My Hero Academia is really good too, though the main character starts off as a bit of a wuss (of course).

Kabaneri, lost village, and re:zero are it for me this season. You should definitely check out lost village, the premise is pretty interesting but you do got to give it a couple of episodes for the show hit its stride. Just keep your shoes away from you when lovepon does her thing cause you will want to chuck it at the screen when she does.

Lost Village sounded like an interesting premise but had horrible reviews so I hadn't watched it. Guess I'll check it out.

It's so weird and jarring to hear him just randomly speaking English words.

It seemed interesting, then it was just meh - Its not creepy or eerie at all. I liked Shiki and Higurashi but this is nothing like that. This is some watered down PG bs at best.
