First Impressions: Summer 2011 Anime I've tried

I'm not even sure if this deserves a whole post really...it's probably only going to be a couple paragraphs because quite honestly this season to me, was shit. There're only 2 shows I'm watching from it and it's just cuz they're sequels. One I don't even like that much so far. Everything else, yeah some of it could keep me mildly interested, but not enough to watch the entire series. And after dropping so many last season I wanted to be careful of that.

These are the only two I'm watching this season: Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu 2 and Nurarihyon no Mago- Sennen Makyou. The former is really quite a disappointment so far, the first 2 episodes were nothing but useless fanservice and all the girls throwing obnoxious PMS fits at nothing. The 3rd episode wasn't much better but at least it got back to the school and summoned beings premise...sort of. I just hope it doesn't continue this way, I wanna see the conclusion of the fight between Class A and Class F. Nurarihyon no Mago- Sennen Makyou on the other hand is really quite good so far, better than the first season since there are more fights and less of Rikuo's friends, especially Kiyotsugu thank God I don't know how much more of him I can take -.- There's also quite a lot more of Night Rikuo, smexy and bad-ass so that's always appreciated.

Now honestly for the stuff I didn't decide to watch there really isn't much to say about any of them like usual so I'll just lump it all into one paragraph and comment on what I feel needs to be commented on. The only two I couldn't even take watching the full first episode of were Dantalian no Shoka and Kamisama Dolls. The European setting and Pandora Hearts/Gosick style in the former were the main things that really put me off from it, and Dalian's annoying monotoned voice, but that's not too bug of a deal, just somethin that got to me a bit. As for Kamisama Dolls I really couldn't tell ya what annoyed me about that one, but it was boring. Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi I really wanted to like, but it was far too whiny even in the first two episodes. Sacred Seven was pretty decent, but it just didn't hold my interest enough. And last (I think, if not last one I care to mention) Kamisama no Memochou interestingly was the first anime in a while to require me to watch episode 3 before deciding and bottom line it was a let-down, I was expecting so much more mystery and intellect, but no such luck.

Anyway...yeah that's really it, told ya it'd be a short post. Coming up should be my Top 10 List: GAR Characters, then...I dunno, maybe a rant or a review of some sort. Any suggestions don't hesitate to tell me. As  per usual comments and subscriptions are always appreciated, also, please answer the poll to the top right of the blog. Thanks!
