Now that Summer anime has started let us look back in the previous season
The list will be listed in alphabetic form with the exception of the top 5
Akuma no Riddle
This anime has the potential to be one of the best this season but all of it were negated due to the awful last episode, Why because the story is about a girl who is in a class full of assassins and she is the the target except someone defected to her side and decided to protect her thus beginning the week by week assassin with the forever young assassin my favorite. Everyone has their reasons why they became like that and each story is good in their own way and some of these are masterfully done like the BFF duo or something: the badass lolicon lover swordwielding hot chick and her poison user loli died in a conclusion of a Romeo and Juliet play thus making the last episode of Nesikoi looked kind of meh due to the fact both episodes were shown the same week. BUT all of this was ruined by the ending because like these tow somehow survived and everyone is freaking alive even though someone were stabbed in the heart but was saved due to plot convenient manipulation reason and among other things and that is why this anime is not on top 5. Akame ga kill gonna show these wimp assassins how to actually assassinate your target.
Atelier Escha & Logy - Alchemists of the Dusk Sky
This show is based on a time consuming game that will waste your time but enjoy with a hint of regret that you should have done something more productive in your life like me after several weeks playing the game. The adaptation of this game into anime is something of a welcome sight because there are a lot of good games out there that needed to be shown to some people who can't or don't want to play several hours. This show however is good but nothing noteworthy that will make one's jaw drop and make you watch it every week. Still it is watchable and made me forget the awful ending of Akuma no Riddle
Black Bullet
This show is epic and every episode is well done where there is a perfect balance for both action , comedy and drama but it fell short for one aspect and that is the length of the show where all this events should have been longer like the deaths of an entire class or a suicide of someone or even the the season of the anime itself should have been 24 episodes. But it has big problems that I really want to express about the story and the aspects of the series and one of those are the government of the tokyo area I know the young woman who is the head of state is somewhat a capable leader and her abilities to lead or efforts to change their city state for the better are hindered by corrupt people and discriminating people however her plan for a new law regarding the cursed children is good and all but it still does not forbid them to fight. I know there are a very efficient fighting force but those are still children fighting a war and no matter how you slice the subject it would still be wrong and immoral. And i don't know if I missed about this when I was watching but what happened to the nukes of the world and also i want to see other areas in other countries like for example The manila area if there is one. Quick mention to the mask guy he was both cool and badass and his reasoning are not unjustified
PS if you like loli do not watch this show due to episode 10
Blade and Soul
Another anime that came from a game but I never did played that game due to reasons but the anime itself is good and the action or fights are not that great but still a good fight.The problems I had with the show is the parts of the story is not that well explained like that owner of that establishment i never knew what was in the box maybe her husband's (censored) or something and what is that butterfly's significance and many more these things that were never explained makes it hard to appreciate the show more.
The Greatest strength of this show for me is when the MC recalls and regrets every kills she made as an assassin and this is very well done and reminds the watchers of the show that every action has a consequence and someone dead stays dead with the exception of someone who gets revives due to reasons.
Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou
The hilarity of this show is one of the best this season and makes me wait for it every week and this reminds me of sakorasou but this Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou has more greener jokes and sharper animation and this would classify it to be better than sakorasou if only the ending of the show did not feel so rushed and the number of episode should have been linger that this meager 12. In other topics in those shows i really find it funny when two of the women fell into a trap by the MC when he stated that here was gathering of single handsome doctors prompting them to hurry to the said place thus achieving the MCs goal to clear the place of weirdness for a short time for his crush and her friend i find this situation funny because of the doctor factor made those two hot women rushing to a fictional place and made me think this would be some of the perks i will get if i pass and graduate as a doctor but then again this is just anime logic maybe
Date A live 2
I am really glad that this got a second season and this means there would be more Kurumi and the story would be more explained and many more. But all of that were only done at a somewhat mediocre level and the execution is not that good like it was in first season and worst of all not that may Kurumi scenes and the way they ended it where we will wait for a movie is just frustrating in a way. But the very existence of a continuation of the story is i a m glad that this existed.
The story might be your harem style with different settings and what not but there is that lingering factor that i did not like about Shido's method or the organizations idea in making him the Pillar of super powered girls in their mental and emotional state where he makes the spirits fall in love is that he makes himself the sole pillar or the solution to every problem that the girl has not making them find their way especially that diva girl(not the Blood + hehehe) where now she recognizes males but only Shido and some kissingto make her less of a bitch but what if Shido immortality just depleted or something the mental state of the girls would drop to psychopathic like tohka that released something and the world would have rampaging women all over the place. Not a very good plan organization with a very hard name to spell
Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka
This anime was recommended by someone in a FB group called Otaku Bytes and I watched this because of I need some show to get my mind a break after several hardships I was experiencing where a very slow net is one of them. This anime is something that I can consider a great and necessary one to make people to enjoy lighthearted comedies because green joke is something that are not for everyone and this anime is also safe to watch without worrying about someone is behind me factor. And somehow the opening of the anime is very hard to skip.
MGS reference
Gokukoku no Brynhildr
I am an avid reader of the manga where this anime came from thus I have a certain level of expectation to this but this anime has the same team as Elfien Lied which has a very vague ending ( I also a fan of elfien lied manga that is why I already know how it ends.) that it could mean it might end up in cliffhanger ending or original ending. But when I was watching this I was hooked and I can’t wait for the next episode even though I have the same face when I was watching Game of thrones who has not yet read the book( haha you like that character well that one is gonna die face) where I would wait in very late hours just to watch the show. Also the Main character Ryota is a very competent person and able to do something useful unlike other harembles whose only ability is a great inspirational speech delivery.
