Just a general thread for what we are all currently watching.
Personally this is my current list of series I'm following:
- Parasyte the maxim
- Your Lie in April
- Akatsuki no Yona
- Garo the Animation
- Gundam Reconguista in G
- Cross Ange
- World Trigger
Really hoping that someone picks up The Seven Deadly Sins for streaming. Same goes for Psycho Pass 2.
As far as stand outs go, Parasyte is ahead of the pack for me as easily the best thing this season.
So what are you guys watching and what are you thoughts on this season so far?

'Parasyte' is pretty dope, I'll give you that, BUT my favorite from this season is definitely 'Garo'. Don't ask me why though because I probably couldn't even tell ya'.
My list is as follows:
- Parasyte The Maxim
- Chaika The Coffin Princess: Avenging Battle
- Garo: The Animation
- Akame Ga Kill (Which is a straggler from last season)
It's super upsetting no one picked up 'Seven Deadly Sins' or 'Psycho Pass 2'. Something even more upsetting is that nobody picked up 'Rage Of Bahamut' which looks so damn good!

My list:
- Akame ga Kill
- Fate/stay night
- Donten ni Warau
- Gugure! Kokkuri-san
- Hitsugi no Chaika S2
- Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji
- Orenchi no Furo Jijou (short)
- Bonjour Sweet Love Patisserie (ONA short)
- Akatsuki no Yona
- Your Lie in April
- Parasyte
- Cross Ange
- Psycho Pass 2 (maybe)
Which is way too many but at least with CR getting uncensored version of Terra Formars I was able to put that on hold because that censorship was way too much.
Best shows for me so far are Fate, Your Lie in April and Parasyte.

Best shows for me so far are Fate, Your Lie in April and Parasyte. Huge list! I definitely see some good ones on there! The Terra Formars situation has been pretty bad but it is good news that the uncensored version isn't too far away. I'm still bummed about Seven Deadly Sins lack of a pick up down here but what can you do? |

The Terra Formars censorship is goddamn ridiculous. It took away what is so good in the Manga.

So glad there was no censorship in the OVA! If I'd started with the main anime series, I may not have been so drawn into it. The manga is so good! (Based upon my reading of only the first volume - although the second volume must be out now, or soon...)

See that is what was stupid about it Frankie, they made the actual beginning of the story and OVA that most people haven't seen! I watched the anime from episode 1 and was utterly confused.

The series lost so much through censorship and skipped over plot. They just took out so much.

I can imagine how confused you were Luke. Even knowing the history going into that episode I found it a bit confusing. They didn't seem to care at all about anyone knowing the history and background. I guess they just assumed everyone would have seen the OVA or read the manga? Which is a bad call. So the series is skipping a lot? The OVA was pretty spot on with the plot from the manga, it's sad the main series isn't living up to that. I had high hopes for it  |

Thankfully I have plenty of other good series to watch instead. I'm really into Your Lie in April right now, might make a thread just for discussion of that series actually. |

Your Lie in April is beautiful!
I'm also liking Akatsuki no Yona more with each episode. Seems there's no info about how many eps it's going to to be, but I assume it'll be a long one by the pacing so far - I hope, or there won't be much time left for action!

I'm hoping for 24 episodes of Akatsuki no Yona. I know this is odd to say but for some reason I get a Disney Princess kind of vibe from this story, which is of course a good thing in my eyes. I really look forward to where its going and I must say it has one of the most ballsy opening themes I've seen in quite some time. This isn't something that many anime could pull off |

It wasn't something I'd thought of, but now that you say about the Disney princess vibe I totally see it - perhaps part of the appeal and helped draw me in straight away.
Have to mention too, that for an anime with a lot of pretty men, it's very nice to have some plot and a heroine with a strong personality!
And that OP I shall never skip ^^
