Watching: 55

Uh. I feel like listing all the stuff I'm watching right now would be a bit excessive. Screw backlogs.

Thread moved to appropriate board.

I'm mostly watching Happiness Charge Precure right now, but I've also been watching Jojo's Bizarre Adventure and Hyperdimension Neptunia off and on too.

I will also have to say Happiness Charge Pretty Cure! :3 Also watching the rest of the series, currently watching Suite while I've finished the first six seasons. ...Speaking of which I've been putting off Suite for a few weeks... should get a move on... :V

I'm watching and reading way too much at the moment mainly due to summer and barely having a job.

The main thing I'm watching though is Legend of the Galactic Heroes, which was a really good choice I made. I'm at episode 87 and I'm enjoying the crap out of it.

All dat political and militarist suspense.

Apparently, Thomas the Tank Engine isn't one to take crap from anyone.

No Game No Life, Mekakucity Actors and Witchblade.

After that comes Nisekoi and a bunch of other things.

rECENTLY READING TOP 5
1. Ajin - http://mangafox.me/manga/ajin/  - intense, quick paced, a challenging to read, something I had no expected in recent works, deeply confounding storyline with a hated main character, who is unrealistic to me, but the bad guy for now, in the recent chapters showcases the extreme calculative, strong characterization that is few and far in between, a strong established base of challenging people to question - what will you do if you are immortal?

2. Mahouka - http://mangafox.me/manga/mahouka_koukou_no_rettousei/ now currently running anime with the coolest school uniforms ever introduced in manga, anime and light novels ever. (fact) follows the story of one Shiba who is a mysterious soldier like student who runs away from a powerful family behind all the magic and plots to destroy them from within one day, agenda not yet known. Good read, as good as the slow pacing in the show itself, but I will take on the novel for progress. Cool characters and supportive role cast of equal numbers of males (WITH MEANING, NOT TREES THAT INTERACT) that means something makes this a NOT harem (although it reeks of one, it really isn't) good read.

3. Koi Kano x Ai Kano - an intensely clearly hentai established adult oriented love story of two kinds of love - abusive oppressive obsessive love and loving caring and mutual love, it is focused on the three characters who are interacting closely on these relationships, and how they strive to overcome little blockades they themselves place in order not to move away from one another too much, or hurting the actual relationship itself. The male character is weak, and is submissive to a strong female cast, worth reading simply because it reflects on a whole lot of strong female x weak male relationships and how they actually work in a real life setting. (not a manga setting where the weak male doesn't have to do anything other than being kind and he gets all the pussy.)
(NSFW)

4. AOT - Before The Fall  - http://mangafox.me/manga/shingeki_no_kyojin_before_the_fall/ - grossly intense read on the story of the 'Son of the Titan' and how 100 years later Eren's time came to be. Now you can read the prequel to the intensely gripping series that caught the anime and manga world by storm, and that which inspired countless fanfictions and yaoi offsprouts. A serious as hell read by famed author and artist of Blade and I.S. (not the love manga, the one about underground water cities) Strong art with heavy lines remind me of GITS.

5. Cooking Master B-- I mean Shoukugeki no Soma - http://mangafox.me/manga/shokugeki_no_soma/ Another intense series from famed author of the most erotic adult manga ever now going clean and worksafe (though clearly influencing his worksafe side with peppered nudity here and there) with some of the most DELICIOUS FOOD terminologies ever inscribed in manga ever (AND THEY ARE ACTUAL TERMINOLOGIES) that work and showcase them to the reader. Never has after Cooking Master Boy bought about another character as hot blood, as strong and as characteristic of a cook to the books since then. This is a guaranteed grandstand level of involvement, if you love cooking, and you love reading about cooking. THIS is your thing. Any cooks in the house? read this. You might open a restaurant one day based on this thing you read about.

Watching:

Jojo's Bizzare Adventure

Reading:
Toriko
Ippo
Naruto
Bleach
One Peice
Assassination Classroom
Jojo's Bizzare Adventure: Jojoloin


Not technically Manga [Manwha; they are Korean]:
Tower of God
G.O.D of High School

I don't read or especially watch that much anime honestly. I give ones I hear about a lot a try but most of them very quickly wear thin. For example; Kill La Kill. I'm not really an anime/manga hipster; except maybe the Manwha I read; but even those are the more popular ones. I'm a conformist. Although I picked up Toriko and Assassination Classroom before they became popular-ish. Especially the latter. I think I got into Classroom on the 3rd issue.

dumbest anime if you don't like the characters
I can think of a lot of animes that are probobly dumber if you don't like the characters. Kill la Kill being one of them. [Although maybe that dosen't count considering the whole thing about KlK is that it is supposed to be incredibly stupid]

But the best part is ryuuko's/satsuki's design? It's all downhill once you get to their personalities and the actual show.

Yeah, I just got a glowing recommendation for this.  Going to look into this.

Finished Attack on Titan, Kill la Kill, and read All You Need is Kill, which the movie Edge of Tomorrow is supposed to be based on.
Working on Teekyuu.

The only thing I'm watching right now is Railgun, and I like the animation. I think it looks great. Maybe my standards are off though. In theory I know what you mean though. I can't watch any anime pre-mid-eighties because the animation is too distracting, and I feel bad about it. I wish I liked Macross, I just can't follow it because I'm so hung up on how crazy it looks.

I don't watch or read much, but I'm currently watching Railgun, theoretically watching Steins Gate (which I haven't touched in a year and a half) and Aria (eight plus months), and reading the official Touhou manga that I never got around to. Just got caught up on Forbidden Scrollery and Wild And Horned Hermit, trying to decide which one to go to next.
I made a PADHerder. It's probably out of date though.

Currently watching:
- Kill la Kill. It's funny and stupid but enjoyable.
- Death Note (just three episodes to finish)
- Girls und Panzer. Even if I don't like the slice of life genre, tanks are tanks.

Wanna watch:
- Akuma no Riddle
- Black Lagoon

Watched and recommend:
Fist of the North Star
Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica
WataMote
Kill La Kill
Claymore

Planning to re-watch and still recommend:
Working!
Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei
Hellsing Ultimate
DeathNote
Gurren Lagann

Planning to watch and will probably recommend:
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
Bakemonogatari
maybe Blue Exorcist
Tiger & Bunny

Don't recommend:
Hand Maid May (okay for the first couple episodes, but gets boring quick)
Yu-Gi-Oh GX/ZEXAL (just...no)
Every Pokemon anime excluding Origins (love the games, though)
Hellsing not Ultimate (half-decent animation, dull plot...just watch Ultimate instead)

I preferred Arpeggio over Neptunia.  It honestly felt like a bit of a chore when I watched Neptunia, but I probably would've been more into had I played the games, so take from that what you will.

Currently trying to watch Precure in its entirety. I'm on Max Heart at the moment, but it's a pretty tough slog, so I might give up.
Manga-wise, I'm keeping current with Claymore, and I've just finished Aku no Hana.

I can't decide between Arpeggio of Blue Steel or Neptunia, can anyone help?
I haven't seen Neptunia, but Arpeggio's great.
