One Piece, Fairy Tail, and Detective Conan mostly. Though I do download Bleach and Naruto and mean to watch them when I find the time, but much like a squirrel hopped up on speed and lethal levels of caffeine, I always end up finding something to keep me from doing so. Like the new Digimon Xross series.

I guess since we're about half way into this season of shows, I'll bite. Let's see... the list is kind of long and I definitely would not recommend half these shows to anyone...


Continually Ongoing:
---I can't really rate these with a score, so I'll just make a comment.
One Piece - Um... what is there to say?
Bleach - Absolutely Terrible, I feel like shooting myself just watching it
Naruto - It's improved? Would have recommended Shippuuden until it fell into filler hell.
Fairy Tail - This one isn't so bad as the plot moves very fast in the show.

This Season:
[10/10] Arakawa Under the Bridge x Bridge
[8/10] Soredemo Machi
[8/10] Legendary Heroes -Kind of a nostalgic show in my opinion
[8/10] Shinryaku! Ika Musume
[7/10] The World God Only Knows
[7/10] Bakuman
[6/10] Oreimo
[6/10] Toaru Majutsu no Index II
[3/10] Samurai Girls -The plot is terrible, but the art is fun to watch

Special Consideration:
[10/10] Katanagatari - A 12 part OVA about an unusual pair on a quest to locate 12 cursed swords. The original light novel was written by Nisio Isin, same person who wrote Bakemonogatari (one of the best series I have ever seen). This is definitely worth checking out and the series is almost finished as well.

[5/10] Black Lagoon OVA - It's ok? Not much has really occurred and it seems lacking compared to the original series at this point.


I've seen most of the new shows this season as well, but nothing else really stuck out (...there's actually a lot of shows this season).

-Otome Youkai Zakuro - I'm a sucker for animes like this
-Psychic Detective Yakumo - I like where this story is going
-MM! - Cute comedy
-Bleach: When its not filler to see how well they animate the fights
-Naruto: the same as Bleach

I haven't been keeping up much with anything honestly.

Bleach is the only ongoing series I've been watching, but I watch that in the same way people watch most American television.

I've been off anime recently, but even before that I rarely watched ongoing series, even though I was very much aware of their airing. I find it vastly preferable to watch a completed series so that I may do so at my own pace.

Nothing at the moment, really. I've been reading the Bleach manga every week, I'll probably watch the anime again when a filler season comes up. Other than that, I haven't watched much since FMA ended.

I like One Piece, and Bleach kills time till Kekkaishi comes on.

The original One Piece was good... They bastardized it when they translated it to English and tried to make it into a kids show.

I just got done watching Ohren Host Club. It's not ongoing (just one season) but it was a lot of fun. Very, very girly in a lot of ways but it was still really funny and wacky.

Squid Girl is the only one I'm sure is ongoing(or at least current season) that I'm watching right now. Sora no Otoshimono Forte is another one I've been keeping up with as Crunchyroll gets em, but I can't say for sure it's current season.

Generally speaking, I'm not a fan of shows that go on and on like many Shonen anime do. As good as I'm sure Bleach and Naruto can be(my roommates love both of them), I have trouble committing myself to watching them. There are exceptions, of course, but generally I just can't bring myself to start a long running show, especially if its ongoing.

I'm still hoping someone buys me the Ouran Academy logo towel on my Christmas list.

Srsly Loev that show.

I don't think anyone watches that version, not to mention 4Kids no longer has rights to One Piece.


I don't particularly care if someone watches Bleach or Naruto, people can watch whatever they want. It's when people start claiming "Bleach is one of the best anime shows ever created!" that I have a problem. I will laugh at you if you watch Star Driver though.

One of the guys I play D&D with every Sunday watches Fabulous Driver, and claims there`s nothing gay about it at all.

It`s pretty funny seeing how mad he gets when we bug him about it.



The only shows me and my room mates are keeping up with this season are Ore no Imouto, Samurai Girls and Zakuro.
Well, sort of.

One room mate can't care less about Ika Musume and Zakuro, but I still look forward to those ones.

Oh, and I forgot about Amagami SS, even though I still resent the whole 4-episodes-per-arc-and-reset thing.

Finally checked out The World God Only Knows. Fairly awesome thus far(I'd give it a solid 8/10). Also started Fortune Arterial, which is also looking pretty cool so far(only a few episodes in).

After having watched more, part of me is kinda tempted to start calling Fortune Arterial "Vampire Clannad".

I tried watching Aterial, but only got to about episode 4. The series didn't really leave any kind of impression on me and just seemed very ordinary. Sure there were vampires, but they didn't really seem to do anything. Maybe show improved, but that was opinion that I formulated after watching a few episodes.

On the other hand... God Only Knows was probably my favorite show this season and looks like there will be a second season.

MM! finished on ep 12 Overall 7/10 was cute but not enough development.

Psychic Detective Yakumo is behind because the original fansubbers dropped it because they found it boring, and i guess there were a few racial slurs in it, luckily a new subber picked it up but they need to catch up.
