[quote=Joxuu]Started watching Nourin. I'm not sure how I ended up finding it but I've watched the first episode. I didn't expect much but it seems good. I'm not sure if it's because I'm tired but I was laughing so hard at times which is something I don't do often. EDIT: lol. Starting to figure out the genre after ep 2.[/quote]

[/quote] [i]Nourin[/i] got really cringe-worthy in episode 2. I stopped after that, because I just couldn't interest myself in a pervy-MC semi-ecchi heavy on the harem tropes for all the world. It's blatantly relying on titillation rather than caring much about plot, and even that was what I wanted I could get better elsewhere. I can only suggest it if you're into bad ecchi comedies and are having trouble finding any you haven't already seen.[/quote]

[quote=Joxuu]^ That's the problem why I find it hard to continue it after discovering that. I expected solid plot based on the first episode. Never really liked ecchi animes anyways, tough I have watched few of them.[/quote]

[quote=xIchi]Better watch Love Stage!! XD[/quote]

[quote=YayaFTW]Finished watching [i]Hitsugi no Chaika[/i]. Fairly solid anime. Art / Animation / Soundtrach were fine. I personally liked the characters, they were enjoyable and the interactions between them wasn't cringeworthy. Some anti-climatic scenes were here and there, but that's not taking anything away from the anime's worth. Plot wise, this season was pretty much a prequel to what's gonna come, since no concrete events happened through the episodes that could even slightly overwhelm what happened in the final episode. I honestly love plots that intrigue you like that, yet I understand why some people would find watching this anime unsatisfying. I like how the romance was straight-forward yet entertaining, mainly because Chaika's reactions and spontaneous acts were golden. Well I recommend this to people who don't mind shonen tropes. It's a good watch thats' for sure. There's no fanservice aswell. I'm gonna be watching [i]Sidonia no Kishi[/i] next.[/quote]

[quote=Joxuu]Everyone seems to give good creds for Hitsugi no Chaika. It seems watchable but not that good. I did like the characters but something is bothering me enough to not watch it atm. I'll propably finish it someday tho. Started watching Haikyuu!! It's my first sports anime as I have been little sceptical about it. I was thinking of watching Kuroko no basket which seems to be on the hype train but maybe after Haikyuu if it's good. Also considered Iwatobi Swim Club.[/quote]

(p.s. the opening is pretty cool too) Please report back once you watch sidonia no kishi. The art/animation is killing it for me... so I need your thoughts to draw a bit of a conclusion on the series. Meanwhile, I'll go read the sidonia no kishi manga.[/quote]

[/quote] Well there was an underwear scene that didn't suggest anything and that's as far as it goes. Trust me, I watched all 4 seasons of Ikkitousen, both seasons of DxD and my favourite anime is the Monogatari Series. In other words I have a PhD in fanservice.[/quote]

[quote=YayaFTW]Watched the first episode of [i]Sidonia no Kishi[/i]. Art reminded me of one of my favourite games I used to speedrun last summer, Mirror's Edge. Pretty nice OP / ED. Overall, a strong start for a first episode. I'd have prefered the casual anime art, but I don't seem to mind the current art though. Everything so far is watchable, will probably marathon it.[/quote]
