    I'm definitely more about the recent stuff... despite being quite old for the fandom it attracts nowadays.

    Slamdunk is probably what I'm going to be reading next.... It comes highly recommended by almost everyone. Although, that Rugby manga looks amazing! I might have to give it a go before I start on Slamdunk. A nice short series is probably what I need.

    I like Free! too! I was a swimmer so that was the reason for starting to watch it... I stayed for the characters... and the topless guys, not gonna lie.

    I will add all of your recommendations to my ever growing list, zappyspiker (You're name makes me think of Haikyuu!)

    You should definitely read Eyeshield! Just be aware that if you watch the anime, there is a bit of a slump around episode 60... I'm still at that hump. It's just a bit repetitive. But aren't all sports/shonen anime at some point?

    I'll keep it in mine! I still have a bit to watch before I reach eyeshield though.
    And lol, I used to be a swimmer to which was half the reason I watched Free!, the other being art-wise and that it was a sports anime.

    Most recent sport anime is pretty gay, nothing wrong with that, just thought I'd point it out.

    All the gay

    I enjoy watching more bromance than actual romance haha.
    Like most fangirls will make the most of any single interaction between two characters.
    But I just love a strong bromance friendship in general.

    I just started YowaPeda and gotta say: love the bromance in it.

    Teshima/Aoyagi bromance for life!

    How long has this title for DCC been around?

    btw hi guys. I don't contribute here a lot because I barely know much anime (except the popular ones and the ones shown in Toonami back in the days). I especially don't know about the ones with the Japanese-only names.

    All goods if you don't know that many. I mean we've all past the stage one point or another. If you like Anime, that's good enough isn't it?

    lmfao I didn't think it was all that long ago XD;

    Either way, I can relate man. I was just like you some time ago. But look at me now - a guy who was initially apprehensive because he couldn't identify a single show out of the ones being talked about in this section (they used to talk seasonal shows - I didn't watch even one of those back then) is now out here actively watching MOST seasonal shows and having fun. You'll be like that soon enough too I guess. Just keep at it :p

    Decided to trim my seasonal airing down by sticking a load of stuff on hold. This will be what I'm focusing on for the foreseeable future.

    NP: The Theory of Slice of Life


    Actually, probably less. Will probably prefer to marathon the last of Parasyte and all of DURRRRRR.

    I'm barely watching anything from this season, but I can't complain since I already have too much to catch up from previous seasons that I've missed I guess.

    I'm getting old...

    This season I'm only watching Durararax2 and Yowapeda.

    Others look interesting, but it's finding the time to watch them that is the problem.

    I might try and make time for Kiseijuu, and all my kids adore Assasination Classroom, so T should probably give a gander at the very least.

    It's funny that I probably would never touch the ongoing anime seasons aside from anime adaptations of manga I've read (was an avid manga reader) 'til April 2014 at the time manga sites got blocked and I needed a new form of Japanese entertainment.

    Lo and behold, a new seasonal watcher.

    Also, for this season... huh, aside from Fall leftovers and AssClass, I didn't pick up anything. Didn't pick up DRRRx2 since I haven't even watched the first one anyway, and after all the sports anime I've watched KnB isn't that interesting anymore. I did grab a few titles but I haven't check to see if they're any good. Probably mediocre is at max, Fall 2014 and Spring 2015 produced so many interesting titles that Winter 2015 looks plain in comparison.

    But hey, it's still week 2 of Winter 2015.

    Winter 2015 is pretty plain.
    I'm just really glad I picked up Death Parade which (aside from Assassination Classroom is probably the highlight of my season). I want to see to see Binan Koukou Chikyuu Bouei-bu Love! just for lolz because it looks fun.

    But like I said, it's probably for the better since I can watch everything I missed last year and marathon it.
    That includes all the stuff I've placed "On-Hold" for so long and hopefully decreasing the large of things that are on my "Plan to Watch" that I never had the time to watch and I've got about 40 on there (With a few I haven't added).
    Counts the same for live-actions and jdramas too, since like anime, I'm behind with them as well.
