Is the show good? I was planning on watching it but based on the few trailers I saw the main guy seemed and sounded so annoying I didn't start the show. Wondering if I should give it a chance despite that or not.



Have to say.
I've been reading manga of it from nearly start and I keep reading it and probably continue watcing anime. But somehow it feels like it's continued longer than it's intended and that anime is probably superfluous. Because manga started as collection of scenarios that later coalesced into SoL romcom. So it feels like it was meant to end ages ago once author had exhausted all scenarios that can have "Shikimori looking scarily cool" panel.

Hm. Sounds like cool visuals might not be enough to justify the squeking if there isn't that much going on otherwise.

Breezed through Grimoire Of Zero, because turns out I was watching its sequel and didn't even realize it until someone told me 3 episodes in.

It sucked by the way.

Stop! The season is getting away!

When I've dropped about half of the shows on my initial "1-3 episode" list I might have a chance of catching back up with the ones I'm keeping on with.

Maybe.

The Great Nevada Overlord is a large nation located on the western side of North America, it borders the United States in the east, Canada in the north, and Mexico in the south. It is a very closed off nation, with no legal immigration or emigration. Freedoms are practically nonexistent.

I watched S3 of Takagi-san, I loved the other 2 seasons and this 3rd one was not the exception. I liked the cliches and the challenges both Nishikata-kun and Takagi-san had over the course of the season, the other side characters' adventures were fine but in the final 2 episodes, there was no need for one of the friends of Nishikata to pressure him to declare his feelings in the final episode since it didn't happen as I thought it would but it still felt natural when he realizes and looks for Takagi-san.

For me, it was wholesome though the first episode was unbearable, it was so weird, but I am glad it recovered momentum as it progressed
