Damn, looks like it will be an heated battle between Mahotsukai and Fate this time around.
But who knows, this season seems to be full of interesting Anime and honestly I've never seen the Anime Series section being showered by comments like this!

HAvent posted here for a long time, bc i was only watching Boruto. Wanted to ask is Kujira no kora wa sajou ni Utau belongs to 1st or 2nd week ?

if its 1st week its definitely my #1
- Kujira no kora wa sajou ni utau 1

I want to watch this but I am not sure I should... Almost all series I follow this season air during the weekends...

 

[Spirit]

Mahoutsukai no Yome - I've read the manga and this first episode certainly didn't dissapoint.
Fate/Apocrypha - I haven't read many of the VN's but still following the anime series' are a pleasure.
Gintama -

Aaand I just realized that I missed the week.

Definitely, go & watch it, i can't predict how good will it be, maybe it wont reach my expectations, but 1st episode was really solid. You don't need to watch it on week-ends considering as sky said, 1st episode counts for the current week so you definitely can watch it whenever you want.

So for this week

1- Kujira no kora wa sajou ni utau 1 my fave anime of the season so far (hope it will keep up this quality all the season)
2- Gintama 2 hilarious episode

3- Juni 2 (like it more than 1st)

Have watched Also Sns, Boruto and Bc this week (I never watch that much anime per week, I'll likely drop BC, and maybe put sns on hold, thought i'll drop Juni but 2nd episode ended up more interesting)
I just started Mahoutsukai 1 loved it a lot but won't be able to catch next episode before the end of this week.

Kujira no Kora wa Sajou ni Utau EP 1

Spoiler

Very good first episode, I wasn't sure what to expect but I am very happy with what I watched.

Good build up to start with learning about these characters, their powers and also the mystery surrounding the girl that was found and her looking for Falena.

Looking forward to watching the next episode.

Blend S EP 2

Spoiler

Mafuyu = best girl, her interactions with Dino are brilliant.

I would die if I ate that parfait.

Those are not the females Akizuki is looking for.

Houseki no Kuni EP 2

Spoiler

Even as a gem it hurts being put in a Boston Crab.

Diamond was pretty cool, not sure what is fully going on with her and that injury.

bort is very strong and cool to watch in battle.

A giant snail that can melt them all away, quite the tough situation they are all in.

I wonder if Cinnabar will actually be the one to save Phos.

Honorable Mentions

Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou EP 2

Spoiler

The opening theme is rather catchy.

I knew that book was going in the fire one way or another.

Enjoy that fish to the fullest, it could be an extremely rare find.

Juuni Taisen EP 2

Spoiler

That was quite the eventful episode, a lot of carnage.

Looks like the boar could already be out unless she is somehow able to revitalize herself.

So much for the dog by the looks of it, I'm not really that surprised that trying to use the chicken to his advantage backfired on him.

The horse could be in a bit of trouble against the ox.

Net-juu no Susume EP 2

Shoukoku no Altair EP 14

 

[Jammin]

What a strong anime week. Three clear winners rise pretty far above the rest for me though.

- Fate/Apocrypha (Amazingly good episode, A-1 actually outdid UFOtable at animating a fight scene. I never expected to see that!)
- Mahoutsukai no Yome (Just an incredibly solid show. It's got this almost Studio Ghibli quality to it that's hard to put into words.)
- Gintama (Kagura should not be allowed to date. This is what we learned.)

 

[Nii]

Lots of good shows this season, it's hard to choose 3 favourites...

I will go for

Kujira (loved the first ep)
Mahoutsukai no Yome (Chise and that adorable creature, sugar overload XD)
Inuyashiki (really like the OP, and the premise is pretty unique. Are we going to wittness a new Saitama? )

3-gatsu no Lion:
This was a super start into the second season. Seeing Rei being so active socially made me proud! Hilarious episode with amazing visuals! Can't wait for Kyouko and the Kawamoto family.

Mahoutsukai no Yome:
One of my favorite characters entered the stage! Just to give you guys an idea how great the character at the end is: this is the voice actor of Waver (Fate), Mystogan (Fairy Tail) Oikawa (Haikyuu), Arima (Tokyo Ghoul) and Hisoka (HxH). Sugoiiiii.

Kujira no wa Sajou ni Utau:
Wow, such a wonderful atmosphere the first episode radiated. I like the art/style of this series and it has an interesting premise. Lykos’ voice is so kawaii. Fishy Elders are fishy.

Spoiler: Other series I watched

Fate/Apocrypha:
Okay episode. Don’t really care for Caster. Moreover, the interactions in F/A don’t give off this feels vibe which they are supposed to do. The last couple of minutes were awesome, but certainly not enough.

Garo Vanishing Line:
Neat monster of the week epsiode. More Sophie please.

Inuyashiki:
That was… strange? But in a positive way. Inuyashiki looks quite promising. Finally a badass ojiisan who is not a side character.

Just Because:
Chill episode was chill. Nothing more though.

Juuni Taisen:
Oh, the woman I thought to be the MC is dead? So, there are no real MCs here? Not that I care, but that was still surprising. Niwatori was fun to watch. It was clear as day that she would kill Dog. Again, nice animation and sick music.

Kekkai Sensen:
Entertainment pure! ^.^ Kiritsugu so kewl, even in Kekkai Sensen!

Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou:
This one certainly lacks something for me, but it’s still charming enough to avoid the drop button.
