Macross (yes, finally watching the original) ... ep14... why must you be a recap! gah! I place it somewhere near Gundam Zeta/ZZ in quality. It's downright laughable sometimes. Not bad for its age. I love SDF Macross. You get some beautiful animation in there around halfway. Some is less beautiful.

I'm at that point in the seasonals... the just after half slow episodes... that I feel like dropping everything.

I haven't heard anything about anything this season aside from people swooning over JJK. I checked out a fight from it and was not impressed. WTF is JJK? Jujutsu Kaisen? I dropped that garbo super early seasons ago... recognized it was just standard action/shounen and would never go anywhere but milk itself dry. 7 watching 11 dropped ... so far These have gotten boring and I might drop: Unnamed Memory (this has been consistently below-average area... but pleasant/calm to watch) Hananoi-kun to Koi no Yamai (a nice romance but needs more drama) Jellyfish Can't Swim in the Night (it started good... but has dragged to CGDCT too much) I'm not going to drop: Mushoku Tensei II: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2 (despite being consistently below-average and slow, it's otherwise solid quality) (now the above-average ones:) Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo! 3 (no explanation necessary) Highspeed Etoile (it's no Initial D... but neither was MF Ghost... this has more races at least... and has done 2 times so far MUSIC + RACING = HYPE but then they cut it short wtf /rage I really want this one to be better) Girls Band Cry (angry chick music, anime of the season probably)

JJK is Jujitsu Kaisen. Standard shounen stuff can be okay. It's nice when you just want to have a fun easy hype watch.
Is Girls Band Cry basically K-On but angrier?

I'm in the slow process of rewatching Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Girls. It's a fun show with a lot of hype action and colorful characters. It's packed with ecchi, but it's still fun. Unless I see an earlier example, I can really see it being one of the big inspirations for Kill la Kill, including an eyepatch girl with a scissor blade.
The art style stands out the most, attempting to blend modern (well, 2010) anime with classical Japanese art.
It's only 12 episodes, but it's worth a watch.

There's a season 2 ya know? ... but serious note... I think the ink-blot censored version was better.

There is a season 2, but it's mostly terrible. I watched it against someone's advice. I don't regret seeing it. It's just very unnecessary. I feel about it like Konosuba season 2- just a lot of fluff withotu doing anythign too interesting.
I never saw the censored version, but I feel like the ink blots would work really well.

I've been watching through Dragonball GT with friends. It's not as bad as people say. The first half is very strong. There's a lull in the middle, but it's still decent. The main antagonist being named "Baby" also makes for some funny line reads: "I have to go fight a baby." "It's me, Baby!" "My Baby! I can't live without you!"

The original Dragon ball is the best though, very humorous. Doctor Slump is equally funny.

The king Picolo stuff is really quality, though. I've never tried Dr. Slump, but maybe I should. I like the humor of original Dragonball.

For both Dr Slump and the original Dragon ball I think the manga is better than the anime. But such adaption decay is an almost universal phenomenon.

Dragonball is weird for me. Some of it's I've only seen the anime. Some, I've only read the manga. Then, some of it I only know via the abridged series.

That opening reminds me that 3D models are a plague on the anime industry. I like the general look, but some scenes look like they were made in Idolm@ster for the Xbox 360.
