If done properly, the MC weekly taking out everything but the target could be a hilarious way for Argevollen to distinguish itself from Aldnoah. Let us bask in the glory of incompetency!
On the bright side, at least it's not another Shinji. (Seriously, why the hell did anyone decide to let a kid with clearly no skill…

Kill the century.
That was actually from the spring season and just was licensed by Netflix recently. The second season premieres in the autumn in Japan.
Proactive military coordinator and an in media res plotline? Alright that sounds like reason-enough to add to my regular viewing list. Thank you for the specifics and taking the time to comprehensively reply.
As long as neither become like M3: The Dark Metal, where nobody talks to anyone to stall the plot of which…
It makes complete sense by the last episode, but as the premiere episode it was relatively banal if not incomprehensible at some points. I genuinely fell asleep (it had been a long day) half-way through the first time, missing out on Makise "Christina" Kurisu and Rintarou "Hououin Kyouma" Okabe's interactions.…
As a sidenote, I believe the Kill la Kill special comes out in September too!
Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo? or from this past season No Game No Life and Chaika the Coffin Princess might appeal to you. Also Railgun is a slice of life spinoff that is quite fun (just going through it myself) that has an overarching plot as well.
Slightly more obscure is Denpa Onna to Seishen…
Tokyo Ghoul or Aldnoah.Zero might be something to look into. Zankyou no Terror's part of the Noitamina lineup which is meant to increase the wider audience of anime beyond the shounen crowd with more unique series. Past series in the lineup have included Anohana and Psycho-Pass, both well-regarded.
Richard's…
Totally agree - if it follows the manga closely then there will be some genuinely shocking and emotional moments this season. Cannot wait for Edese and the Jaegers to debut!
Just out of interest, how did it compare to Aldnoah.Zero if you watched that as well?
Aldnoah. Zero had an excellent first episode - I'm hoping that it keeps it up and that when the penny drops, it will be glorious.
Having watched about seven of the ten that I'm interested in, there are several that have the potential to be pretty interesting and every one of them had a decent or great first episode. If you have specifics, perhaps I could help? Remember even the first couple of episodes of the great Steins; Gate weren't that…
Mate, I'm afraid that every arc pretty much involves returning to a different VR game, so that's just something that you'll have to suspend disbelief for.
The secound cour/ Alfheim arc is no where near as enjoyable as the first due to a severe lack of Asuna, but it's not terrible plotwise. Asuna's character is…
Akame Ga Kiru!, Gekkan Shoujo, Ao Haru Ride, Hanayamata, Glasslip, Tokyo Ghoul, Zankyou No Terror, Aldnoah Zero, SAO II, Tokyo ESP, Sailor Moon
Most enjoyable episodes so far: Aldnoah Zero, Akame Ga Kiru!, Tokyo Ghoul, Gekkan Shoujo
Anticipating/ Excited for: SAO II, Tokyo ESP, Zankyou No Terror
Disappointed so far:…
For the man who has been designing and drawing Pokemon since the early 1990s, that is one crap Pikachu.
I think that problem can be avoided by not giving children expensive touch-screen mobile phones, which is another issue altogether; they don't need them, who on earth are they going call in such a way that requires the endless number of apps available? If children really need to call for their safety while travelling…
They have a similar, but taller 131-foot vertical free-fall slide in Durban called The Drop Zone. I was wearing speedos that day. Do not recommend.
It was hellishly fun though; I must have gone six or seven times.
While there is an argument for showing older technology which laid the foundation for the better technology, I think appreciation is independent of the actual technology; the reason your method of placing artificial restrictions on the extent of technological advancement works is because you are instilling that sense…
Yeah, I'll give him credit there. I'm pretty sure it was his downfall early on though, no? In that tournament where his old Chimchar beat him or something. To be honest, I found Diamond and Pearl so bland compared to my (nostalgia-infused) enjoyment of the original series and Advanced that I quit fairly early on and…
This is blasphemous, but I genuinely hated Tetris as a child. Then I again, I have Cerebral Palsy, which affected my motor skills and pattern recognition when I was younger, so that could have been the cause. Happily, there was Pokemon eventually.
