My thoughts and review on the first episode of Grisaia no Kajitsu (shameless plug, but I don't make any money off of my blog)

Re: Grisaia, I might have to keep watching, really nice artwork and camera angling involved despite the mundane scenes is really interesting+ it looks like they are putting in effort.

This season keeps getting better for me, so much better than the last. Some who dislike fantasy type settings may feel alienated though.

Yep, it seems like they're putting in effort to do the most of what they can with the given time restraint of the anime medium.

The second episode was aired just two days ago so I'll probably get around to watching it sometime this weekend. I'll have lots of new audio toys to play around with this week, and three midterms next week though...  :'(

Perhaps too much jargon in this review but here's my stream of consciousness I did a couple weeks back. This season has been extremely entertaining and perhaps taking up more time than I would like.

Yet people still complain about what Grisaia has managed to produce so far. I think it's doing a fine job with its limited time and resources. I haven't watched the 4th episode yet but I've been writing my thoughts on each episode so far in my blog.

I agree, I dropped most of VN related anime for some time(White Album etc) but Grisaia is pretty amazing in art and the direction its going. I can't help but keep watching.

I agree. Legend of Korra has been excellent. Quality baddies every book. Going to be hard to top book 2 with the aspects of light and dark facing off, but book 3's villain was truly fear inducing.

Really missing Hunter x Hunter. Watched Sword of the Stranger last night. Very high quality animation, some of the best I've seen. Good, but predictable story.

Got the whole run of Ghost in the Shell and sequel/specials lined up to watch when I get to it. I've seen some of it before and remember it being fantastic. I don't think I've seen beyond the first season, however.

This season of Sword Art Online started out strong with Kirito challenging more online killers, but afterwards they seem to be chewing through whole arcs in 2-3 episodes and they don't seem all that connected. Odd. Still, I'll watch for sure.

Hunter X Hunter was amazing!  I didn't enjoy Legend of Korra Book 2 as much as the other Books.  I hear you about Sword Art and hope it takes a more interesting turn otherwise it will be supremely redundant.  I found the Ghost in the Shell TV series to be a tad boring in season 2.  Have you seen Attack on Titan also?

Yes. Attack on Titan first season was great. Waiting for season 2.

I liked book 2 more than the rest from an 'Avatar' point of view. Book 3 felt much less about Korra than it was about her opponents.

The whole spirits thing in Book 2 lost me at times. Yea cook I am looking forward to season 2 as well for Titan.
