I think you pretty much got all of the decent stuff, unless you wanna delve into what previous seasons had to offer. Been hearing good stuff about Shirobako or whatever that was called.

Yeah, you got the title right.

It's a great series if you're interested in finding out more about how the anime industry works.

Anyone know what's good this season? I've been following Jojo and Danganronpa and have downloaded some of New Game, Taboo Tattoo and Mob Psycho 100 because they all look pretty cool. (Admittedly, Taboo Tattoo may be a guilty pleasure.)
I watched the first few episodes of Re:Zero whatever the fuck and it didn't interest me.

Active Raid has been fun. Not exactly high art or anything, but fun.

I've been watching Jojo's Bizzare Adventures And Danganronpa mainly too but Aggressive Retsuko is a fun little anime, each episode is about a minute.

I've no idea why the Hello Kitty company decided to make a show about a 25 year old death metal singing office worker though.

No different from the sort of movies they once made in the 70's that had a lot to do with mortality and less about how cute these characters were (of course I'm talking about "Ringing Bell" right now).
 
Come to think of it, what are your guy's opinion of Danganronpa 3 (both future arc and despair arc) so far? The series is almost over and I liked it quite a bit, although admittedly I enjoyed future arc way more than despair arc.

Somehow this seems like something I really want to watch.

Oh it's still about cute character designs:


(I looked it up and Sanrio did an online poll which decided what kind of character they wanted and decided on "salaryman / office lady theme")

Despair Arc suffered as a result one thing, and that was the fact that it didn't focus on the class like they said it would. Instead it solely focuses on Chisa, Ryota, and Izuru. We'll most likely get a single episode where all the class is driven to despair, most likely when Izuru murders Nanami, but again there was so much room for development with some of the other characters. The only character we see get development is the Impostor, which is great but none of the other early killed characters in DR2 got the same treatment. Hell, Hajime was only in it for like 3 episodes.

Kuromukuro is a pretty good mech show. Kinda a cross between a cheery Evangelion-clone and Inuyasha, with a healthy dose of slice-of-life thrown in.

Looks interesting but I cannot stand 3D mechs.

Where can you watch all of this? Youtube has dodgy quality and I can't find anything on nyaa.

Don't expect them to be there anyway.

Sanrio has a few clips on YT as well, though I don't suppose their US outfit has any interest in bringing this one over anytime soon.

EDIT: Forgot Sanrio now owns the Mr. Men books too...

And another WTF clip...

@Michel this strikes as ungrateful y'know.

The way the lab is, it kinda reminds me of Evangelion just without the secret agendas and such. Then there was the moment when Yukina said "Instead of telling me to get in the damn robot, you could ask me to please get in the damn robot." It's just, when I see it I see a happier version of Eva due to some similarities that are no doubt the result of Eva being kinda cliche nowadays.

Well a least the main character doesn't sound like a total asshole like that, that's a start.
