Episode 1 of Berserk was amazing. Same nightmare fuel we've come to know and love from them. The style was different but I got used to it pretty quickly, can't wait for the rest of the season.
Haven't gotten around to watching this myself yet but the reddit thread is making it sound like it's complete shit.

The animation in Berserk was kinda meh, its all done in CG and it shows. Not surprising considering the recent Berserk movies have been pretty much pure CG.

I enjoyed it as well, its different but atleast we're getting it - If they stopped it again people would moan over that.

The animation felt like a mash up of the movies and show but holy shit I didn't think I would be this excited. This is going to be so fucking good.

Kissanime is free and streams better than CR -

CR can burn.

Also LOL @ Shokugeki ep 1 - the scene of the men in the fields was priceless.

I still need to catch up on the rest of food wars. About 3/4 of the ways through the first season but pooped out. The fish dishes they keep making don't look tasty at all. Real Japanese food is pretty nasty.

Yeah...I'm getting frustrated with them too. I WANT to support the artists and makers, but fucks sake, CR is making it damn hard. I may drop them soon.

Subjective - I find it hard to find good Japanese down here in Miami unless you go to some really upper tier and costly places - However when you do the shit is delicious as fuck. I love Benehana and Samuarai - Ive yet to venture to Japan myself but i imagine ill run into alot of weird shit out there trying to find something good to eat.

Just ask Chys. He's living it up in Tokyo.

Actually, Hawaii is a lot like little Tokyo also. It's at least 65-70% asian food out here. Mostly Japanese, but also some Korean and Chinese.

I'd love to dump CR but it keeps me from having to torrent a large chunk (usually at least half) of the shows every season. I very rarely stream anime from a browser, it's almost always my PS4 (CR app) or NAS running Kodi for non-CR shows.

On a better note, fuck yes Food Wars. Been so long since the last episode, glad it didn't drag it out and got right to the fun. Too bad he had to beat best girl.

SLICE OF LIFE IS THE BEST ALWAYS!

Toradora! - Pretty sure this is my favorite.
Anohana! - not sad.
Sakamichi no Apollon!
Great Teacher Onizuka!
Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun!
Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo!
Hyouka!
Kyoukai no Kanata (idk if this counts but it was on a list and it was fun.)

Edit: not shitting on you for not liking a genre. I can super see how it might not be someone's cup of tea but here are some recommendations anyway ;D
