Hopefully SLAENT isn't ridiculous like GAF where all Anime discussion needs to be forced into an OT that moves way too fast to be useful. Can we keep this to Summer 2015 shows?
Here is a season preview from my favorite anime blog:

I'm about to watch the first eps of Charlotte, GATE and Working!!! tonight. Anything else look interesting? Gakkou Gurashi! is one I've been told to watch out for by folks who have read the manga.
PS: I saw ep 1 of GANGSTA and it was kind of meh. I'll give it 2 more eps...

Gatchaman Crowds Insight is the only show I'm anticipating going into the season. Absolutely loved season 1
But I'll probably be watching Dragon Ball Super and Symphogear GX as well
Open to other shows. But I usually let other people sample some of the more generic looking stuff lol

I feel obligated to watch Dragon Ball Super even though I've sideeyed myself after each movie so far
I am going to check out GOD Eater, Gangsta, Durarara, Overlord, Aohara, Game of Laplaces and Chaos Dragon.
I am tempted to watch Kangoku Gakuen, shit got fuckkey written all over it.

Haven't been watching much stuff and thought last season was awful. I'll check out this GATE thing though. Watched Gatchaman Crowds because a friend recommended it. Was weird, but alright. First two eps of the new season aren't doing much for me though.
Only show I'm following this season atm is Working!!! and Non Non Biyori repeat lol.

Uh GATE is silly lol. Maybe good stuff will happen since now it's this group traveling into the country. The army guys just killing medieval scrubs wasn't very interesting.
Yeah. I posted in the other thread but I guess I should move stuff here.
I really, really liked God Eater on PSP so I had nothing but the lowest of expectations for the show. As of now though, I don't have any complaints other than the abundance of stills and the fact that the GOAT PSP soundtrack can't be used for this.
Gangsta.... I like it so far. But its giving away every sign that it'll completely collapse on itself in less than 10 episodes.
Prison School is pure fuckery. Undiluted. If you've ever seen a single frame from the manga, you know what to expect.
I'm still the only person I know watching Arslan Senki at this point and while its not an amazing show by any means, its got a bit of chumminess to it that won't let me drop the show at this point. Its picking up, little by little. The animation is still crap most of the time but eh. Its okay.

I'm hoping Crowds picks up. I'm kind of ehhh on the new characters introduced so far.
and I say that with Crowds S1 being one of my favorite shows of last year. Best Tatsunoko re-imagining
Just got caught up on rokka no yuusha
ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh could be good. i doubt it turns into shingeki no bahamut or anything but i'll keep watching

"hot dogging latin beauties" #rekt

Kinda surprised by GANGSTA
I thought they'd put this kind of fight off for at least another dozen episodes of bullshit

I'm actually more surprised they fit some world building in there leading into the fight and it didn't feel forced.
By cloudy Go To PostAnyone else watching Working!!!? Satou x Todoroki finally :D
Yeah that was a cute episode.
Soma stays cooking crack and whipping up work. Got this old lady looking like she got Benjamin Button disease after that black pepper hit
edit: of course his father fucking bodies him with a veggie dish from alpha centauri wtf lol

that might be the funniest 22 minutes of anime i've ever seen. when breh caught em in the bathroom i pulled up the timecheck and the show was only half way over and my stomach was already hurting.
i cant do abs before i watch this show if it's gonna stay this funny.

By DY_nasty Go To PostCharlotte is trash. A mistake.I like the first two eps ::(
holding out hope thing will return to interesting again after these episodic shit period
oh well.. this season had more title that I enjoyed than I expected to.
Now that I have come to grip with the reality that HxH will never be finished, I need a new anime to pick up. Recs?
Sounds like GATE is the new hotness.

Ugh it's a long list, mostly incomplete:
Evangalion, Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo, Gurren Lagann, Fate/Stay Night, Bleach (gave up), Naruto (gave up), some version of Macross I think (gave up), Death Note, (gave up), Monster (didn't like it much), Attack on Titan, Full Metal Alchemist (both versions, Berserk (original), Hellsing, FLCL, Lain
There's probably stuff I'm missing. If I gave up on it, it means I didn't like something about it after a while.

Top wo Nerae 1 and 2.
Gundam Unicorn if only for the music.
I dislike TYPE-MOON LN and media but I thought Kara no Kyokai was good.
I watch Shinsekai yori after reading the novel and I liked how messed up it was.
Most recent show I watch other than Gundam was Space Dandy and I liked it.
I like Rurouni Kenshin Live Action trilogy.

Sounds like you'd enjoy the fuckery of Black Lagoon
If you missed the Kuroko train then hop on now. Sports anime hype is the more pure hype there is. If you're looking for another long run, Ippo is a MUST WATCH imo. Yu Yu Hakusho is by the same guy who did HxH, and many would say its better (I'm a 1a/1b kinda guy on this one)
Didn't know you saw Lain though. How'd you like it?

By reilo Go To PostUgh it's a long list, mostly incomplete:I think you'll like Psycho-Pass, chase that semi-realistic edginess

I'll start on Kuroko. Lain was good for the mind fuckery, super dark and depressing though. Not one to rewatch.
I've seen bits of Psycho-Pass when my former roommate watched it. Didn't find it all appealing.

Lain had me choked up hard-body at the end. I didn't even realize I liked the show until it was over. Mindgames too stronk.
If you're looking a middle ground there, Baccano is a damned good show. Kinda got overshadowed by some stuff that came out around the same time.

Looks like you have more success with shorter run and completed series than longer stuff.
What else tends to put you off shows? I find it's easier to give recommendations based on that than just what people like.(It's easy to find stuff within your realm of interests)
If you're not put off by older animation from like the 80's and 90's I have TONS of stuff I could suggest. Alot of them being 3-7 episode OVAs that take very little commitment to get through.
