    They did create the poor man's anime original ending for Soul Eater, if nothing else.

    But that's not really a compliment, I suppose.

    Hey now! They also created the poor man's anime original ending for the first FMA! Give them SOME credit!

    So what new series are people still actively following and watching? Besides the few follow-up seasons like Seitokai Yakuindomo, Gin no Saji, Chuunibyou I don't find myself watching much of the new series, besides Mikakunin de Shinkoukei, Sekai Seifuku - Bouryaku no Zvezda, and Noragami. Just wanted to gauge other people's interest to see if there's anything worth it for me to pick up fresh, or again, since I dropped a few earlier into the series because I got bored of them (Buddy Complex, Nobunaga the Fool, Nobunagun, Hamatora (it started nice but quality of animation and my interest level waned after every new episode), and Toaru Hikuushi e no Koiuta.

    I'm still watching, of the new series:

    Buddy Complex - though I don't know how long since it just keeps getting worse.
    Chuunibyou - though I'm a few eps behind.
    Gin no Saji - I'm more than a few eps behind...
    Hamatora - like I said in another thread, it's like Darker than Black Lite, which suits me.
    Inari Konkon - this one is quite an amusing show I'm keeping up with.
    Mikakunin - the same as with Inari.
    Nobunaga the Fool - this show also suits me with the theatrics and purposeful overacting.
    Noragami - one of the more wholesome shows this season.
    Onee-chan ga Kita - similar to Boku no Imouto wa Osaka Okan a year ago. <5 mins per ep. Silly stuff.
    PuPiPo - one of the most interesting shows this season. Also <5 mins.
    Yakuindomo - I admit I'm not laughing very much anymore. But it's still passable entertainment.
    Tonari no Seki-kun - I'm starting to feel ~5 mins per ep is the new standard...
    Wizard Barristers - I don't even know why I'm watching this. Because of the porn art?

    I've dropped:
    Toaru Hikuushi - the first ep already told me it wasn't, at all, what I was expecting from it.
    Space Dandy - I'm not 12 anymore, and never will be again. Can't help it.
    No-Rin - I just lost interest. Entirely.
    D-Frag - I dropped the manga. I had to remind myself why by watching the first ep.
    ImoCho - I don't even need to explain why. Nobody should watch this.

    Still watching:
    Pupipo - Like Kraco said.
    Inari Konkon - The main cast are fun to watch, and the goddess is such a pathetic loser it is entertaining.
    Mikakunin- My favorite of the season. Possibly the new series of the season.
    Chuunibyou S2 - Yes, it is dumb, moe garbage. But it makes me laugh. I'm in for the Dekomori vs Nubitani events.
    Gin no Saji S2 - Honestly, the most underwhelming sequel I've watched in years. But whatever, good for Fridays.
    No-Rin - Surprisingly more entertaining than Gin no Saji. Only slightly less educational (that it educational at all surprised me).
    Noragami - One of the better shows this season in terms of overall balance.
    Wizard Barristers - I in fact am watching it for the hentai style art.
    Witch Craft Works - I was 6 episodes behind, got bored, continued to watch it. It's okay, and has gotten better.
    Buddy Complex - It only took 6 of the 12 eps to get to the part I was interested it.

    Dropped:
    Space Dandy - Fucking terrible.
    Nobunaga the Fool - Couldn't take more than two episodes. Just bad.
    Tonari no Seki-kun - The first two episodes annoyed the hell out of me. I did not find it funny.
    Nisekoi - Bland series that was not improved by Shaft being Shaft.

    Other:
    Toaru Hikuushi e no Koiuta - I never got around to it, but I might pick it up later.

    Ryll's post listed two more shows I dropped but had forgotten:

    Nisekoi - I'd heard the manga is bad, but I had to see it for myself. One ep was enough.
    Witch Craft Works - I couldn't stand the weakness of the main character dude.

    Any opinions on these ones? They caught my eye initially, but look quite bad once I looked a bit deeper:

    Hamatora
    Nobunagun
    Magical Warfare
    Hozuki no Reitetsu
    Pupa

    Agreed with the rest. Fucking terrible season.

    "She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court

    Damn. Did I really check out so many series and then forgot them entirely after dropping them?

    Magical Warfare - This seemed uber mediocre in every way imaginable.
    Hozuki no Reitetsu - I might have even finished this, but I just didn't feel like it this season; I'm watching enough shows as it is. Sort of seinen type dry humour show. Purely hit-and-miss, so it might get tedious.

    I'd like to cast my vote for Inari Konkon, Nou-Rin, and D-Frag. They are interesting shows that get very little attention.

    Peace.

    I've seen one ep.. that was most horrible boring and stupid experience on the 'kill me baby' level(which I've dubbed the worst 'comedy' anime ever)
    Number of works of fiction that made me shed at least one tear: 3
    Thou seeketh soul power, dost thou not?

    Still watching:

    Seitokai Yakuindomo 2
    Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai! 2
    Nisekoi
    Witch Craft Works - Makes me wonder why I dropped the manga.
    Pupipo!
    D-Frag! - Lack of funny from other shows this season is more than made up for here. Probably my favorite show on this list.
    Onee-chan ga Kita

    Dropped:

    SoniAni - Just didn't capture my interest after episode 3.
    ImoCho - Downloaded the episodes but I haven't really had time to watch them.
    Tonari no Seki-kun - I haven't even dled the first episode. Too much other stuff going on and I'm already watching too many other things.
    Maken-ki! 2 - same as above.


    I feel like I'm forgetting something...
