== My (Twitter) reactions to the first episodes of the Winter 2016 season

[[As before Fall2015FirstEpisodes]], I've decided to collect here all
of my tweeted reactions to the first episodes I've seen (in the order
I saw them).

* Myriad Colors Phantom World episode 1: Fanservice galore, which is a
  negative, and no KyoAni spark of life. But okay otherwise in an LN way.

* ERASED episode 1: I came in knowing something about the premise and
  with that, this was a great first episode. I want to see more.

* Active Raid ep 1: A pretty good but also fairly stock start for this
  sort of thing. And wait, she's still a minor? That explains some bits.

* Pandora ep 1: That was surprisingly fun and decent in a popcorn action
  way, although I could have lived without the big fanservice joke.

* Dagashi Kashi episode 1: That was fairly good and I found it reasonably
  funny, but it's also clearly not my thing at all. So it goes.

* BBK/BRNK episode 1: That was a pretty good version of an action shonen.
  Snappy, well done, good action sequences, doesn't waste time. Solid.

* Luck & Logic episode 1: Perfectly competent and okay but bland, with
  nothing particular to distinguish it from the next action shonen show.

* As I expected, Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu is not my kind of thing
  at all. I can see the appeal but in practice it leaves me totally cold.

* Dimension W episode 1: That was plain good in a classical adult
  action show way. We have setup, characters, mysteries, everything done
  well.
  [[→ https://twitter.com/cks_anime/status/686322213536940032]]

* Grimgar ep 1: Slow and I could have lived without the fanservice bit,
  but the setup et al is intriguing enough to earn it another episode.
  [[→ https://twitter.com/cks_anime/status/686353359280975872]]

* Lupin III (2015): Well, that was an abject failure. The start of
  episode one irritates me too much to continue right now & probably at all.
  [[→ https://twitter.com/cks_anime/status/686728812629987328]]

* KonoSuba ep 1: That was okay and periodically amusing, but the
  characters aren't really alive yet and it's kind of flat and limited
  so far.

The one remaining new show is *Ajin*, but at this point I'm not at
all sure if I'll be able to watch it any time soon. I've also become
uncertain about its genre; if it's really a horror show about alienation
from humanity and the horrible things that people do, I'm probably not
interested in the first place.
