Anime League Anime League - Winter 2017

[Wowzers]

I'm pretty sure that as time goes on, people will start to drop series that are less interesting. If I drop a series at episode 3, I probably won't pick it up again, and so if it gets really good from episodes 6-12, I may never know. I guess that this thread can serve to notify us if series get good again?

Or maybe not. If a series loses watchers, it also loses 'potential' future nominations... so series that are consistently good will always drown out the inconsistent ones. I think I may adjust my voting strategy to pick series that need a little love, instead of picking, strictly speaking, the best of the week.

 

[Jammin]

Some of the list also started earlier than other things on at and will probably end earlier which inflates their numbers slightly but will bring them down near the end of the season.

 

[Kadir0]

Youjo Senki ep 2
Gintama 318

 

[Sky]

Youjo Senki ep 2
Gintama 318

As the week goes from sunday (15.1.) to saturday (21.1.), Youjo Senki ep 2 would not be eligible.
I will count Gintama already if you want though.

 

[Jammin]

My second pick for the week is KonoSuba S2 E2. "Return of the frogs"

Best episode of the series to date IMO. Had me rolling practically the whole episode.

 

[Spirit]

LOL at KonoSuba S2 E2! Nominating it for this week along with
Gintama 2017 E318,

 

[Wowzers]

I'm a bit early but... My favorites for this week are:
Konosuba S2 E2
Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon E2
Youjo Senki E3

 

[Kadir0]

Youjo Senki ep 3

 

[Battou]

Gintama 318

 

[Zasz]

Konosuba Ep.2
Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon Ep.2
Kuzu no Honkai Ep.2 (DAT ending )

Guess Konosuba will always be on top for me.

 

[Jammin]

Demi-chan wa Kataritai Ep 3 is going to be the final of my 3 favorites for this week.

Due to some very entertaining scenes with a repressed succubus math teacher and really great usage of the English word "sex".

 

[Demonspeed]

KonoSuba 02
Gintama 318
Nanbaka S2 03: Another serious arc which started very well.

 

[Eternal Dragon Of ChaOZ]

KonoSuba S2 EP 2

Spoiler

Giant toads are back! Another good and funny episode, I very much enjoyed it.

Urara Meirochou EP 3

Spoiler

Never a dull moment with this anime. It felt like a short episode but I think was because I enjoyed it so much. Time flies when you are having fun.

Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon EP 2

Spoiler

Everyone loves Tohru. She really laid the smackdown on the thief. Kobayashi doesn't exactly have the ability to "play" like that. Another fun and enjoyable episode.

Spoiler: Honorable Mention

Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V EP 138
Predictable ending but I thought Jack & Gongenzaka were awesome in this episode.

The combination plays the duelist have been using in this episode and the last couple have been good to watch regardless of the outcome.

 

[Nii]

Gintama 318
Youjo Senki 3
KonoSuba S2 2

 

[Sky]

I am going for:

Gintama E2,
KonoSuba E2
Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon E2

And here are the results for week 3:

 

[Zasz]

I suppose it will be a battle between Gintama and Konosuba at this point.
Still, who knows, we might be in for some nice surprises.

Lol at Masamune's drop though. They may well still pull through, but E3 was meh. Really meh.

Yeah, same for me.
I believe it's partly Aki's character's fault...
She's not so good as a main heroine IMHO...

Those do seem like they are good bets to dominate this thread. There are enough good series out there that it's going to be week to week for me though.

KonoSuba
Masamune-kun
Demi-chan
Blue Excorsist
Gintama

I feel like those are the series I'm going to be voting for in this thead. But amoung those I could easily imagine voting for any combination. KonoSuba is the only one that feels like it's locked in on weekly basis.

 

[Erinyes]

Only Gintama for this week (won't watch anything else, likely)
