Ah, the Summer 2016 Anime Season is about to start. Will it bring us unexpected
surprises or give us all stiff necks from shaking our heads in despair?

Nowadays, when I am planning which anime I will try out in a new season I go to
the “My Anime List” , aka “MAL” website, and go to their “Seasonal Anime Page”:

http://myanimelist.net/anime/season

This saves so much of the effort that I used to have to spend to dig up
synopses, PVs and other info on upcoming series. So here I go, left to right,
from top to bottom, with no filters checked, the new shows that I will try and
not try:

“Shougeki no Soma: Ni no Sara” - won't bother – didn't like the first season

“Orange” - won't bother – maudlin manga

“Nanatsu no Taizai: Seisen no Shirushi” - won't bother – didn't like the first
season

“Berserk (2016) – will try – But I'm not a fan of the original so I'm not sure I
will like this either

“D-Gray-man Hallow” - won't bother – didn't like the first season

“Danganronpa 3” - won't bother – didn't like the first season

“Mob Psycho 100” - definitely will try – based on the manga by the author of
“One Punch Man”. I've read the manga, it's not as good as OPM, but it still has
some of the best potential for this season.

“91 Days” - won't bother – uninteresting premise, uninteresting PVs

“Rewrite” - won't bother – uninteresting premise, uninteresting PVs

“Masou Gakuen HxH” - won't bother – harem crap premise, harem crap PVs

“Tales of Zestiria the X” - probably won't bother unless I see some great
reviews – game adaptation

“Handa-kun” - won't bother – I liked “Barakamon” but I'm not interested in the
story of the MC as a kid

“Arlan Senki: Fuujin Ranbu” - won't bother – didn't like the first season

“Servanp” - won't bother – uninteresting premise, uninteresting PVs

“Taboo Tatoo – will try – not the most exciting premise but the PVs look fairly
good

“Qualidea Code” - will try – ordinary premise, but it is “original” and the PVs
look reasonably good

“Nejimaki Seirei Senki: Tenkyou no Alderamin” - will try – ordinary premise, and
the PV suggests “thud and blunder”, but it might go beyond its light novel
stigma

“New Game” - will try – based on a 4-koma but it is about about “adults”, so it
might be okay (despite how the PVs look...)

“Amaama to Inazuma” - will try – probably too saccharine, but it might be
watchable

“Love Live! Sunshine!!” - won't bother – gives me the shudders just thinking of
it...

“Fate/kaleid liner Prisma – whatever” - won't bother – I'm not a “Fate/whatever”
fan

“Hatsukoi Monster” - won't bother - uninteresting premise, uninteresting PVs

“Kono Bijutsubu ni wa Mondai ga Aru!” - won't bother – high school art club...
shudder...

“Battery” - won't bother – sports anime

“Fukigen no Mononokean” - will try – interesting premise, interesting PV

“Days” - won't bother – sports anime

“Amanchu! - won't bother - uninteresting premise, uninteresting PVs

“Cheer Danshi” - won't bother – sports anime

“Ange Vierge” - won't bother – card game-based cute girls crap

“Saiki Kusuo no Psi-nan” - will try – based upon a bat-shit screwy manga

“Hitori no Shita: The Outcast” - will try – ordinary premise, okay PVs

“Binan Koukou Chikyuu Bouei-bu” - won't bother – not interested in the first
season either

“Fudanshi Koukou Seikatsu” - won't bother - uninteresting premise, uninteresting
PVs

“B-Project: Kodou Ambitious” - won't bother – idol/music crap

“Regalia : The Three Sacred Stars” - won't bother – cute girl-mecha crap with
crap PVs

“Scared Rider Xechs” - won't bother – reverse harem crap with crap PVs

“Active Raid: ect.” - won't bother, - disliked the first series – pseudo-cop
show with mechas crap

“Tsukiuta” - won't bother – idol/music crap

“Ozmafia” - will try – don't expect much, but might be surprised

“Bananya” - won't bother – 5 min short – I don't do drugs so I can't see why I
would want to try it

“Show By Rock! Short!” - won't bother – idol/music crap – shudder...

“Time Travel Shoujo” - will try – the PVs don't hold a lot of promise but many
this will be another “Marie and Gali”

“Puzzle & Dragons Cross” - won't try – looks like a TV Tokyo-style kid's toy
anime

“Onara Gorou” - probably won't try – but it is a show about farts, so maybe I
ought to check out at least one episode...

“Mahou Shoujo? Naria Girls” - probably won't try – not sure what this really
is...

“Gra-P & Rodeo 2nd Season” - won't try – didn't know there was a first season...

“Neko Konogoro” - probably won't try – don't even know what it really is
