Simple thread.

New anime are coming out all the time, both in America and Japan. I figure a nice mini-thread to discuss new releases might be a good idea.

When a new one comes out in Japan or in your country, post about it here. Say what you thought about the first episode and guess what the rest will end up as (if you read the manga, no cheating! Wink)

For ongoing discussion, however, make a new thread relating specifically to that anime. This thread is more for initial thoughts on new anime and their first (and maybe second) episode.

Shinsekai Yori (From the New World) - Visually great. Great music. The plot is confusing but looks to be going in a great direction. I honestly can't wait to see next week's episode.

^ It didn't do as much for me. I couldn't follow it at all. sweatdrop

Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai is the rather amusing tale of a guy who was a total dork (read "cosplay freak going too far") in 8th grade trying to start over in high school. The problem is, he meets a girl who still hasn't outgrown the 8th Grade Syndrome. She's pretending to be a girl possessed by something called the "Wicked Eye" and takes it a step too far... dragging Yuuta back into the past he'd rather forget.

Absolutely hysterical, though it makes you want to face-palm a lot, and on occasion head-desk. Total mind rot. Also, while watching it, all I could think was, "Hey, that character looks like so-and-so from something-or-another!" Seriously. One character looks like she wandered out of K-ON, another from Haruhi, and so on. Not sure if intentional or not.

I went, "Either she's telling the truth and is the oddball in the real world... or she's just delusional." I'm not which situation would've been better. XD

Kamisama Hajimemashita

I started reading the manga recently, and when I found out an anime was coming out this season, I decided to watch it too.

Basically, it's the story of a penniless girl who becomes the "God" (kamisama) of a rundown shrine and its inhabitants and their... I suppose you could say misadventures. It's cute and funny.

Ai Mai Mi

Bizarre. It's a series focusing on a group of girls in the manga club. It says "Maturity of 18 year olds required," but it's more like "maturity of 14-year-old boys." It doesn't seem all that funny to me. Neutral

Mangirl! (read like "Manga." Not about a girly man or a manly girl. Razz)

The story of a group of girls trying to start a manga magazine. This one's cute and rather silly. I'm likely to keep watching this one.

Maoyuu Maou Yuusha

Reminds me a bit of the Suikoden series in costume and number of characters that seem to be in the cast, as well as the fact that things are far more complicated than they first appear. There's also a bit of a Tears to Tiara feel to it. It's really entertaining.

Ai Mai Mi didn't seem funny to me either.

Mangirl! have yet to see.

I'm kinda surprised you liked Maoyuu Maou Yuusha. It seems like it has decent amount of ecchi. That said, it was very entertaining when
Spoiler:

OreShura
About a high-school boy way to focused on his studies to be interested in girls, and a bunch of girls. Seems so far to be a really funny slice-of-life/romantic comedy bit.

It's no worse than Tears to Tiara or Karin. And her outfit is nothing compared to Jeane's from Suikoden (the game this anime reminds me of).

I think I saw a Kokoro Connect special, but I'm not completely sure...

Also, I've started watching Mangirl! and it seems to be good (at least)

Amnesia

No, it's not related to the horror video game. That was my first thought too.

It feels a bit like a weird dating sim. And those eyes. What bizarre eyes. Multiple colors. DX

Maybe it's because she has amnesia, but the main character is really uninteresting and has no personality, not even enough of one to get mad at the reason for her memory loss. And sadly, it doesn't seem like the guys are much better.

I'll give it another episode, but it doesn't seem like anything to write home about.

Senyuu

Minisodes must be in this season.

Parody of all things video games. Even has a Cloud/Zack lookalike. Nothing too impressive, though. Not particularly funny either...

Tamako Market

Bizarre, but in a cute way. Very Happy I'd like to call it "What's happening in Chitanda's mind" (the main character looks a lot like Chitanda from Hyouka). Also, the bird talks. And gets really fat.

In general, it's really weird, but kinda cute at the same time.

Just so you know, I watched episode 2. It doesn't get any better.

Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai. S2
The first episode is very reminiscent of the first episode of season 1. I think this will be a fun season.

Karneval

Um, first, what's wrong with that kid's hair? It looks like he's trying to impersonate a Chobit. And totally an uke.

I'm not sure whether I like it or not... I'm leaning toward not caring one way or the other.

Guy with the walking stick and top hat is bad ass though. Probably the best part...

Will watch episode 2. See if it gets better.

Also, it makes 1000% more sense after I saw the OVAs.

Date A Live
Quite interesting. Dunno if its going to go more towards a harem-comedy, or an action-harem. Great references in the first 5 min.

Zettai Bouei Leviatan
Entertaining. Looks pretty funny with a bit of action and lots of cute.

Haiyore! Nyarlko W
More Nyarlko being herself...

Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru (My youth romantic comedy is wrong as I expected)
So funny. A cynic, a really smart girl and an airhead in a community service club is a recipe for some great comedy.

Shingeki no Kyoujin (Attack on Titian)
Good art. Serious show. Wins the award for "best death of parent to motivate character". Om-nom-nom...

Hataraku Maou-sama!

I wasn't so sure about it at first, but then they got to the punchline. Japan. XD It was funny. Demon king in Japan. It reminds me of a short story I wrote in high school.

So I got around to watching 2. I don't like the main character, but I like everyone else well enough, so I'll keep watching. See if Mr. Uke gets any better. The plot's interesting enough.
