Tokyo ESP – some show about espers and powers in tokyo. fairly accurate location backgrounds, char design is whatever, first ep too much shit going on, too many chracters introduced, no context to what’s going on. maybe good later but whatever
Jinsei – dude part of school newspaper crew. they starting advice column, need to answer student questions about etc. needs help, gets cute girls from each disipline to have their say on question, science, sports, humanities, art etc. mild funny, haremish a bit, good looking character designs and premise ok but probably not interesting enough or funny to watch. ok
Gundam-san – 5 minute show teaching bitch kids all about uncle char and uncle amuro from UC days. sd mild funny related to gundam stuff. ok, not really worth
Himegoto – 5 minute show about some colorful girls doing shit and one guy that they think is a girl, but treat as a girl anyways. whatever
Nobunaga Concerto – ugly ass 3d anime show about some modern day fool who drifts though time and has to replace nobunaga and do all his shit. basically educational kinda teaching about nobunaga and etc. ovverall bad, bad animation, bad premise, horrendous char designs, the opening and ending song segment far too for what it is. bad.
Majimoji Rurumo – witch girl, summoned by fool guy. guy has bad rep for being sleazy/pervert since forever, wants to change etc. some stuff happens and girl basically becomes servant for guy, because he saved her life or something, get coupons for wishes, coupons are his life. plain ass character designs, bad boring premise, crap sound, medocide animation, whatever bad
Rokujouma no Shinryakusha – dude has work in some place, moves to some shitty aparment, super cheap but doesn’t give a shit, dedicated because so cheap rent. over the course of the episoide it turns out his room is special, portal to another world, site of former sacred shrine, high magical energy/evil, gateway to underground world. thus as expected, all cute girls show up; magical girls, ghosts, aliens, rep of ancient undergroud civ etc all want to fight for this space. etc etc. eventually coming to agreement to live together. ok show, character designs are very attractive, ok premese but nothing special. maybe watch more
Zankyou no Terror – really serious drama show about 2 guys who are on some mission or something, maybe former superhuman/powers/esper/experiment etc. not really disclosed at first ep. do terrorist stuff in tokyo blow up buildings etc.normal/ bullied girl gets involved, becomes part of the crew. either that or get killed. not bad show, targeted towards women slant. too serious, not bad but not my kinda thing
Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance – generic magical/ fantasy world harem fare. only girls in world can use magic and “summon” spirits for magic power. main dude for some reason can do this. goes to magic academy, lots of usual girl characters, tsundere, rich girl, quiet girl, clumsy girl, mature girl etc. powers lots of fanservice and some here and there, ok character designs for what it is but i’ve seen better. ok, but not great, drop
ovverall
this summer season is medicore
there are are a few ok shows but nothing really super worth noting
