After 3+ years of no shows which stir my interest, this season is promising :).

"Another" seems great so far. I hope it doesn't end up cutting it short like Chaos;head because of its 12 episode limit, though.
Ordinary lives of highschool boys is awesome :D

Watching Rinne No Lagrange and Ano Natsu De Matteru and kyousougiga when I has the time. Summary seems promising.

While I'm sure that they have been mentioned before in this thread, I just discovered Panty and Stocking (with Garterbelt). It's such a bizarre cross between the Powerpuff Girls and Pulp Fiction with a little Sailor Moon dropped in for fun.

It's pretty awesome.

I admit, I liked the art direction for that show

I just didn't like the show itself

So there is an 'ending" to this reign of bizarre episodes? I'm only up to Episode 8.

I do so like the sexy parts, even though they are few and far between. Listening to Japanese voice actors swear in English is almost off the chart funny.

I didn't expect anything normal from this show. It's almost like a drug induced hallucination.

Iam a massive fan of p&s w/g

Loved the final battle before the ending. I got the music album and love that song during the footsex (admit it, that's what it was)

The whole end theme is great too. Chocolate is a song I only love cause of the show. I simply adore scanty and knee socks theme when they appear ( though the song is somewhat different)

Some of the songs are appropriately weird and one consists of panty's.....moans...during her favorite endeavor. Best to avoid having the whole album on shuffle infact....

Love the shifts in art style that occur.

P&s is major brain chow for someone like me. You know...

Oh, man. I wanted to see fisticuffs.

Guess I'll have to go back to watching the show. Maybe afterwards I'll go blow up some paper maché ghosts.

High school of the dead and Queens blade,

Hhmmmmmmmm. >,>. Interesting stuff....

Though high school was fucking horrifying...BFF scene, the librarian looking lady scene, the various gym outfit and schoolgirl outfit girls ? FAN DISSERVICE. On purpose I bet to squick those with the fetishes. (except for those with the Guro versions of the fetishes)

Horrifying to someone like me. Especially with my habit of emotional and mental masochism.

Okay, the ending was pretty harsh. Does make me want to see if there will be a Season 2, though. Considering who was there at the end with Garterbelt, it is set up well.

I love the scene where Stocking's sword impaled Panty's head.
