This guy also saw the Summer anime lineup.
I’m about finished with all of the spring shows and I can’t help but feel I’m witnessing the slow death of the medium. Maybe I’m just getting to familiar with shows doing the same stuff over and over again. Then I finally got around to glancing at the shows that will be airing in the summer. I now believe there is no intrinsic value in the modern world.
I actually reached that thought calmly instead of just denouncing the entire block of shows as shit. So let me tell you how I rank the likelihood I will want to watch any of these shows in the coming months from most to least likely.

So let’s just get the first entry out of the way. I’m betting the Classiest Anime group will want to watch a classy retelling of Momotaro. I like those guys so I am looking forward to it. But when I mention that I disliked the Akame ga Kill manga, and it’s that high, we have a major issue.
Rather than going on amidst the increasing reliance on sequels, remakes, prequels and flavor of the week light novel adaptations and Urobuchi’s improbable continued employment as bad things I’m going to spend the coming season doing something entirely different. I’m actually going to go about creating a backlog of shows for me to watch instead this summer.
About a month ago, I turned to Twitter to find suggestions for shows and immediately got Psycho-Pass so that was out the window. So I will turn to the random number generator to finish off shows. If it goes as bad as last time… The shows have already been drawn and I will try not to rage over the random selection of shows I previously dropped, shows rated 10 by my MAL friends and from the top 1000 on MAL. Of course, I will be more that willing to swap stuff out for suggestions in the comments.
Most of you just come here for the silly drawn on chart for the preview anyway. So I conclude by giving you exactly what you want.
Sorry Neregate.com people. I ruined your chart again.
