also your MAL lags my computer apologize for that
Also I'm probably going to change my list design soon.
Surprisingly I had only seen half of these this time, but it works out. Was hoping for Shouwa but at least it's not Love Live.

Re: Anime Exchange Roulette! ROUND 4 RESULTS
You suggest an anime to be added to the roulette before the entry date ends. The anime has to be deemed appropriate and fit the criteria listed in the OP. You will then be entered and when the entry period ends, given an anime.

What Sleuth said. Please come back when round 5 sign-ups start to join!
Also I finished season 1 of Love Live. My thoughts...will have to wait for after season 2. So that should give you an idea.

Re: Anime Exchange Roulette! ROUND 4 RESULTS
And so, I have finished both seasons, English dubbed, of Love Live: School Idol Project. And...goddangit, I loved it. It's not really a secret that I love cheesy, cute, slice of life stuff and Love Live was one of those. However, it was surprisingly a lot better than I actually expected, and while watching it I felt a lot of nostalgia for K-On!, which is one of my favorite anime from my favorite studio. I liked all the characters; some took some time to like (Nozomi, Nico, Eli), some were pretty simple but were fine enough (Umi, Kotori, Hanayo), and some I just straight up enjoyed consistently (Maki, Rin, shockingly Honoka) but all I found myself really liking thanks to a really strong dichotomy between the cast and a good sense that they were all truly friends. It was a strong ensemble of character interactions and personalities that bounced well off one another and created a rather genuine relationship, something a lot of club shows forget (even K-On! at times). The animation was solid and at times even impressive, though the CGI music videos took a lot of getting used to and they never did look as good as the 2D. The songs I actually liked, surprisingly, and I actually enjoyed µ's' music quite a bit, particularly Start Dash and Snow Halation. The story and dialogue were super cheesy and the show felt overall incredibly G-rated past the occasional anime-ism (hot bath scenes and Nozomi's chest-grabbing, which was probably the worst part of the show) but a lot better than I expected, as the show had a surprising amount of guts and could be pretty sadistic to its cast. "Bittersweet" is not a feeling I'd expect from a show like Love Live but it surprisingly fits. And the dub was pretty dang good, with a lot of my favorite voice actresses from Bang Zoom and even some rarities like Caitlin Glass and newbies like Faye Mata as Rin that knocked it out of the park. I don't expect it to change some people's minds on dubs and at times the dialogue uses questionable westernisms ("awesomesauce", "brb", and selfie") but it's solidly acted and mostly solidly written so I recommend it if you like dubs in general. I'm probably the only person likely to enjoy this show as much as this but man, this kind of thing is right up my alley and I was hooked on it. It's not a show that will change your mind on slice of life anime about cute determined girls in a club if you already hate that entire subgenre, but if you're willing to give them a shot, I recommend giving Love Live a shot. You never know, it may surprise you.
And yeah I watched the joke entry and it's among my favorite shows I've seen this year WOOOOOO.

Re: Anime Exchange Roulette! ROUND 4 RESULTS
YO FOUR DAYS TO WATCH YOUR SHOWS DOG
Re: Anime Exchange Roulette! ROUND 4 RESULTS
I'm halfway through mine. I have a day off coming Tuesday, so I should be able to power through the rest by then.
Re: Anime Exchange Roulette! ROUND 4 RESULTS
Just as a heads up, due to dealing with illness and migraines the last few weeks, I will not have time to finish my show as I try to catch up with homework/final projects; however, I absolutely plan to watch the rest of it in my own time. Also, due to vacation and stuff, I won't be available for the next round or two. Looking forward to round 6 or 7 at least XP

Re: Anime Exchange Roulette! ROUND 4 RESULTS
I finished my show. I may make a more detailed comment later, I'm not sure. I don't wanna be that guy but I wasn't a huge fan of Sound! Euphonium. It wasn't bad or anything, I'm just usually not a fan of SoL.

Re: Anime Exchange Roulette! ROUND 5
I already gave my thoughts on Love Live. Loved it, one of my favorite shows I've recently watched and am the only one who'd probably say that because this is the kind of stuff everyone hates but whaaaatever. Give thoughts on what you watched of yours if you want!
And now...the roulette begins anew!
You have until 11:59 P.M. PST May 28th to sign up for the next round; that should land at next Saturday if I mathed properly. I will be signing up with My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU!, aka Oregairu. Sign up now now now!

Re: Anime Exchange Roulette! ROUND 4 RESULTS
I still haven't finished Yuuki Yuuna or even started Ghost Hound. Work has been riding me hard this month, I picked up so many spring shows that it's hard to just keep up with those, and it really doesn't help that Yuuki Yuna has been spectacularly average so far, giving me little motivation to finish it. Also, another site I'm on did a one-off anime roulette that resulted in the similarly boring Shion no Ou, so I've been a smidge backlogged.
That said, I will finish both shows, so I'll keep entering.
Since Gundam Thunderbolt is probably ineligible due to some rather... realistic depictions of war, I guess I'll go with Wandering Son.
