My ISP fucked up big time, it’s only letting http requests through. In translation, I can’t acces any messenger or bittorent.
Yes, this is my excuse for not posting the second part of that earlier. I haven’t seen by far enough new season stuff to do another post because of it.
Does anyone know how to cut off an article, to not display the entire thing on the main page?
To make this post vaguely relevant, a random image I found browsing around:

Nanatsuiro Drops
This was the first thing that came out subbed bar DMC, so it must be the first on list. This season I convinced myself to give everything a try, otherwise loli-harem-hating me would have staid faaaar faaar away from this. As it is, I’m glad I watched it: it was pleasant. Beautifull animation, nice characters, cute premise - it makes me nostalgic, reminding me of the days I watched stuff like Doremi, Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne and Wedding Peach. H-game adaptation, you say? Hell, it doesn’t seem like it.
Maybe the next few episodes will change this (hope not), but this series isshoujo.
And I’m a sucker for the ’zomg I must hide my identity!’ cliche.
Umisho
Keep this away from me. Far, far away. Girls in swimming suit are about the only highlight of this. I hate its colour pallette, its character designs, its voice acting. The jokes weren’t funny, I don’t care about the characters and there’s no plot in sight. Umisho comes from Umi Shoujo, I wager - I wish she’d drown in said umi.
Sky Girls
Why did I download this again? Oh, I wanted to watch everything. God, give me those 25 minutes of life back. I could have cooked, cleaned, read assigned books in that meantime! Instead, I suffered through prepubescent girls piloting huge robots without any apparent logical reason (or maybe I was headdesking too hard and didn’t hear the good explanations?) and a horrid opening. Art and animation were plain, and I really don’t want to remember anything else.
Higurashi no naku koro ni Kai
What’s with the horned girl in the opening? Anyway, I made a point of watching Higurashi two weeks ago especially to be able to watch its sequel. It was vaguely dull - my ’suspension of disbelief’ only goes so far, and it does not include a big revelation of a series’ plot at the end to have anything to do with alien killer bugs.
The second season is shaping up well, in comparison. I like the new art better, and though I’ll miss Souichirou Hoshi as the doormat-whose-name-I-forgot-again, it focuses on my favourite loli of the bunch: Rika. Mi~
Devil May Cry
I’m not sure which season to add this to.
The speed it got licensed at is honestly disturbing, albeit not surprising - this put me in the situation of watching episode 3 raw, and me noticing just how usual the dialogue is. The art&animation is beautifull, music pretteh and it has fairly good pacing: but something about this is off-putting. Granted, it may be Huge Guns, or the Too Many Random Guts, or the Too Annoying Female Protagonist which turn any series into ’meh’, but I really expect the other elements of this keep that at a low.
I really really hope it will pick up.
Zombie-Loan
The opening was craptastic. The character art makes me wonder whether it would be easier to snap a twig or the character’s wrist. However! This is by far the best thing that came out up until now. The characters and premise are entertaining, the bishonen are attractive and I can forsee huge character growth. The magenekko might just turn out to be interesting.
