So I figure, we'll all pretty nerdy, yeah? A good majority of you guys probably watch anime, and an even larger majority probably have shit taste.
So I'll start with a bit about what I watch and try to force my shit taste on you guys.
I've been watching anime for around 7-8 years now, excluding growing up watching Gundam and Yu Yu Hakusho. Even though I've had a power level of 7 since I was young, I've kept it hidden, but I'm a weeaboo at heart.
So on to the anime.
All time favourites
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
Mobile Suit Gundam 00
Hyouka
BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad
Hunter X Hunter
What I've watched this season

Even though it's a manga, Ichigo 100% ;_;

Yahari Ore was hilariously fun, I'll give you that. Also, looking forward to a possible season two of Hataraku Maou-Sama.
E1CAEfAEfAu
I liked it because it went completely against what I thought would happen. I was expecting a standard harem, but what I got was a really intense show with good character "development".
TheXRayFactor Based Deak
What are you looking forward now? I'm watching the new Monogatari and, obviously, Watamote, but I don't know if there are any other worthwhile ones.
E1CAEfAEfAu
I'm kind of excited for Silver Spoon, or I guess it's Gin no Saji. Blood Lad might be good. The rest I guess we have to wait and see. I'll be sticking with Hunter X Hunter though.

@TheXRayFactor:
No problem. I'd keep an eye on Kimi no Iru Machi too. I remember Suzuka being pretty good, and it's by the same person.
LaughingMan9
Know what grinds my gears? When people go full weaboo and pronounce things like 'Shingeki no Kyojin'. Dylon does it all the time. Its Attack on goddamn Titan.

@LaughingMan9:
I partially agree. There are some translations that just sounds ridiculous, such as Yahari Ore no Seishun to My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU
I mean, seriously?
E1CAEfAEfAu
@LaughingMan9:
Yeah, I understand the feeling. I've been in the habit of remembering the non-translated titles because of the torrents I get them from.

@ReservoirDog:
boku no pico, of course
nah, just kidding. ef: a tale of memories.
ReservoirDog
@TheXRayFactor: You are the definition of otaku (not that that is a bad thing) but I consider myself a devoted anime/manga fan and I don't know half the stuff you talk about. But I did watch the first episode of Watamote and I liked it very much, it's very funny.
Guest
@ReservoirDog:
Come on now, I have just watched like 20 animes in my life, that's hardly otaku-tier.
Anyways, it's really odd how it seems no one has ever heard about a tale of memories. Of course that's a huge generalization, but I've asked about 6 or 7 different people and no one had any idea.
Here's an excerpt that isn't that much spoilerish. I don't want to overhype anyone about that show, but it's literally the best scene I've ever seen in an anime. Everything is perfect, especially the music and sound effects.
ReservoirDog
@TheXRayFactor: Watched a little bit of Ef, as soon as I saw their eyes I couldn't take it seriously.

@ReservoirDog:
Heh, I know that feel.
I've been trying to find an english localization of the visual novel, but god dammit.
Neal ROLF
It may have been said, but I've really bean getting into Attack on Titan.

I think I should point out that a new Seitokai Yakuindomo OVA has been released
E1CAEfAEfAu
I said it in my OP, but seriously if anyone hasn't seen Hyouka I'd encourage them to watch it. It has some amazing animation.
SpongeyGString Akari~n!
@aWSOMN360: Hey, I watched a bit of one when LaughingMan9 told me too!
I just checked (I added it to my "watch later" list), it was Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex.
SpongeyGString Akari~n!
I am actually considering watching the Gundam ones. Does anyone know if those are any good?
