Summer Anime 2017 |OT| More streaming services than shows to watch

Finished our watchthrough of (most of) the season's anime. Notable stuff included Welcome to the Ballroom, Made in Abyss (complete surprise here, it was awesome) and Knight's and Magic. I know the manga for Ballroom is well received so it should be fairly consistent, hope the other two continue to be good (esp. Made in Abyss, high hopes for it).
I have to admit it gave me similar vibes, from the designs to the town and dungeon.

"No" being the key word.

It's worse knowing he directly created anime, can't peg that one on old Lucifer anymore.

Bad taste.
didn't know it wasn't up anywhere, whoops, no wonder there wasn't a 1080 version :\
look forward to it!

It takes a while, but by episode 7, the show hits its stride. The show's madness finally has me pulled in and somehow it has become a riveting watch. At the same time, I am having an incredibly hard time reading through some of the motivations, particularly those of Ichise, Ran, and Yoshi. This show is very fascinating, and yet incredibly maddening to watch.

I think around then the show peaked for me. Especially Yoshi turning the place upside down was interesting.
Afterward, though, my interest gradually waned.
Same, I loved the first half of the show, but the second part was just meh to me.

A friend recommended me this, and given the crappy summer-line up that CR's gotten so far, I figured I might as well finally give it a try instead of the seasonal stuff.
It looks like a fun comedy so far, and I also like how All Might gets his own overexaggerated lighting system compared to everybody else.

I'm sure they have said they will get to them. And yeah...no apps is a total deal breaker for me. Not that I want another sub.

I have enjoyed most of the shows I have watched so far this season.

I feel like every season people say that there is nothing to watch. And this is the first one where I mostly agree. Even early on in the season where I'm open to watching things before I weed out the bad stuff I am struggling to find worthwhile shows.

MHA S2 ep.17
Did they just now decide to draw Deku looking about 5 years older than previously? I mean, I know he is finally figuring stuff out, but the artwork here makes him look much older after the meeting with Gran Torino...
Every season everyone says there's nothing to watch and every season I find enough to watch ¯\_(ツ_/¯
There is so much this season I'm interested in. Some I'm going to eventually drop but this is a great season. Last one I only watched MHA and old anime.

I'm always able to find a good stable of shows to watch every season though. Maybe my standards are too low. ¯\_(ツ
_/¯Destined to be this season's Onihei as the Amazon exclusive title people don't even know exists.

Do you like seeing finger banging?
How do you feel about hentai?
My prayers to God
have been answered, Shin Godzilla is getting a limited UK release on 10th August!
(Yes this totally counts as anime since Shin Godzilla was the best anime movie last year.)

Made in Abyss - 01
Yooo, would you look at that! A really interesting setting for once! Love how everything's focused around mining that abyss, down to the peculiar seating arrangement in the orphanage's class.
Even though first episodes are a lie, the visuals should remain fairly strong. With that character design and its fairly simplistic faces they probably have some leeway. Speaking of which, it looks fine to me. I'm just glad it's nothing overly generic.
Now, it seems really questionable to me to have small children engage in evidently dangerous mining operations, without supervision to boot. Even if the society is clearly built around mining the riches of that abyss and children learning the ropes to it early seems believable, this is pushing it too far. In fact, one would imagine this sort of society to be especially aware of the dangers and hence take appropriate measures. But we'll probably get to see some reason for this further on. That orphanage's director certainly doesn't seem nice and people do evil for money all the time. But either way, whether or not the kids are allowed to dig, I'm surprised they're capable of finding stuff fairly high up. I'd imagine if kids can find relics seemingly with ease then the place should still be crawling with adult miners.
Well, I'm certainly curious to find out more about that world.
No kidding girl, that sounds messed up... Hope that's not done publicly but I'd kinda read it as such. That's a bit eyebrow-raising after reading the remarks concerning repulsive content in the manga.

From the creator of Ro-Kyu-Bu. So exactly as expected I guess?
