    Upcoming Summer Anime 2017 - Always better than the previous season!

    Almost time for the Summer season!
    I havenīt looked up whatīs coming, but Iīll post my own list for interests later. Just to get this out here: START!

    I looked a bit last night, and pretty much everything looked like crap at first quick glance. Hope I'm wrong.

    Show Iīll check out:

    - Ballroom e Youkouso (sounds like it might deliver my Yuri!-fix)
    - Isekai wa Smartphone to Tomo ni (kinda interesting setting, two hot silver-haired girl. But this could get super generic quickly, especially if the harem-aspect is too overbearing.)
    - Kakegurui (again, somewhat interesting, however, the trailer was already getting kinda annoying. Feels like this anime lacks "heart", for lack of a better word. But maybe it pans out good.)
    - Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama-kun (football and comeday. Letīs see if it works)
    - Knights and Magic (Iīll give it one episode to convince me, otherwise dropped)
    - Vatikan Kiseki Chousakan (art looks good, music is nice, too. If it has enough "heart", it might be good.)

    Leftovers:

    - Boku no Hero no Academia
    - re:Creators
    - Sagrada Reset (only if I catch up until then. No yet sure if Iīll drop it)

    EDIT:

    @Munsu: Yeah, I just made my list and was shocked how bad this looks. Only 6 candidates of interest for me, and even then a lot of them might turn out as drop-candidates.
    Well, time to work on my anime-backlog then ;D

    It certainly seems like a lackluster season. I guess I'll check out some of the show half randomly, hoping they will be worth something. A couple of the isekai shows, at least. I wish they had animated one of the isekai novels whose manga adaptation I'm reading, but I've never heard of these particular ones.

    One show I'm going to watch is Tsurezure Children. It has quite amusing characters. I hope the description isn't an indication of the show concentrating on the least amusing ones.

    Fanboying aside (and it is really good even if you aren't a Fate fan), I'll still watch the following:
    Owarimonogatari nth
    New Game!!

    The rest I'll check out and see.

    EDIT:

    You don't need to watch the others to get this one.

    I am most excited for more Symphogear, as that is my guilty pleasure.

    I believe I read somewhere that they announced the 4th and 5th seasons at the same time, sometime during season 3's airing.

    It's garbage, but it's my garbage, too.

    The last Fate OVA or whatever it was was utter crap (the one with that shield-saber), I wonder if this will get any better.

    Looks like a crap season 4 me tbh.

    I hope there are some comedy shows worth watching, like that Smartphone and Gamer one... otherwise I don't know what to do :/. I don't really have any important left overs from previous season.

    Literally the only things I saw that I care about is that Hero Academia is continuing and KonoSuba is getting another OVA pack-in.

    @Kray - Fate Grand Order was based on a smartphone game that required a bujillion servants to be summoned, so the story had to be flexible enough to handle that, thus resulting in a confusing mess, especially packed into one OAV.

    Fate Apocrypha is a light novel series with two anti-heroes as main characters and two sides where a bunch of servants fight against the other party. It's different in a good way.

    And there is a white-haired loli assassin.

    Thanks for the info! I never got around to checking out what Apocrypha is, so I foolishly feared it's something as inane as Grand Order.

    Bad summer season, more golf, good outcome

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    This season looks bad... im going full Murtaugh on anime (or they are making me go with so much crap).

    Will try Made in Abyss, Vatican and Reflection.

    It certainly looks like a bad season, but as I said before: Time to finally watch some of those "plan to watch"-series that most of us have, I assume.

    Will definitely use the time to watch "The daughter of twenty faces", RaXephon and Nichijou.

    So... any series you guys are watching from this season not being discussed here? Or lightly discussed? Looking to see if I missed something entertaining or worth watching.

    Isekai Shokudo.

    Watching fantasy people come eat Westernised Japanese food and drooling over it. It's easy to watch, but not much to discuss.

    I could go on a troll rant about how this is like every other Isekai-show where Japan shows off its superiority by amazing elves/medieval societies with its superior culture/military/food/knowledge etc where it's really just modern day stuff.

    But I'd rather just watch people eat nice food and smile.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
