Shes out of it for a while I guess. Sword art will be bad till maybe the Underworld arc(as in the light novel). I prefer Log Horizon, animation isn't as nice as SAO but the world is much more interesting or rather they expand much more.

Lately I can recommend Shirobako for those who want to learn what goes on behind the scenes in anime production, friends from the industry( I have a 2 friends who actually work in the industry) says that its pretty accurate and going by what other seiyuu are saying online,  its true.

I'll disagree on SAO. It's entering the Mothers Rosario arc which if unless you are aware of what happens, will be very interesting IMO.

Shirobako has been a fun but crazy ride through the anime process.

Moffle isn't a ripoff on Amagi. I think it's the same writer of the Full Metal Panic series so you see Moffle in both.

Log Horizon has always been fun to me.

Korra getting back to Avatar shape.. not looking good right now.

Yeah, I knew about Amagi, I wanted to pick up the book but I can barely keep up these days. Too many sides to this hobby to look at. I disliked MR or the series before Underworld largely due to the concept, it felt like a large filler period to me.

Has anyone been watching the Ufotable revamp of the Fate/stay Night: Unlimited Bladeworks series?

Story is kinda confusing with all the different versions, but I think this current version has been amazing so far.

3rd episode in and we already get amazing scenes with Saber and Berserker.

Last week's episode of Korra was painful to watch.

Well, the latest Amagi Brilliant Park is at least Changstar friendly:

Just finished watching Magi - The Labyrinth of Magic and Magi - The Kingdom of Magic. Sort of a mix between typical shounen limitless power and limited weapon based power depending on what person you are. The characters are a little stereotypical, but very deep and make surprising decisions. Also, things don't always go the hero's way. Very enjoyable. I couldn't stop clicking the next episode open for the last 10 or so. Mixed in a little sci-fi at the end. Looks to be more coming but it will take a while for the manga to have enough content for another 25 episode season. Many unanswered questions remain.

9/10

edit:

Apparently there is a short OVA about Sinbad's past. Gotta watch that soon.

Just thought I post a couple of quick thoughts of last seasons titles.

Last season we had a couple of really nice titles that ended that I really really enjoyed, namely Shirobako which I feel ridiculously involved in. One of the titles that I feel really brought me into the setting, strong recommendation. Its not a particularly strong season though, not many fantastic titles(most were continuations/leftovers from 2 seasons)

Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso is one of those cryfest anime that I like to see, music was pretty nice and watching it made me feel like wasting the rest of the day away in sadness. Really nice to see the growth in the characters and how their interconnected relationship force them all to change.

Aldnoah Zero was pretty mindfuck with all the politicking all the way to the end. Flat/Anticlimatic but worth the watch.

Providing more "shounen" or for kids/the young at heart was The Seven Deadly Sins and Gundam Build Fighters Try. Both are nice titles to watch though more for the action than actual plot. Personally regarding GBFT its a nice step away from the direction of general Gundam anime and I really love it for being nonsensical.

This season looks okay so far, will provide more thoughts later. The start seems pretty damn enjoyable though.

Recently I started watching anime again, for a bit...

Full Metal Alchemist is quite good and original. I like the universe.

Akatsuki no Yona is good. General Hak is one of the best no-nonsense protagonists I have seen in a long time.

I feel that the only two things good about A/Z are the music and the graphic. I never enjoyed any anime by Urobuchi.
Full Metal Alchemist is very good, especially the new one. Rome Park's performance is just unbelievable.
