== My (Twitter) reactions to the first episodes of the Winter 2017 season

[[As before Fall2016FirstEpisodes]] I'm collecting here all of my
tweeted reactions to the first episodes I've seen (in the order that I
saw them).

* Akiba's Trip episode 1: That was decent, even sometimes good,
  which is well above what I expected. It has spark for an action genre
  show. [[→ https://twitter.com/cks_anime/status/816832878000619520]]

* Schoolgirl Strikers episode 1: That was a perfectly okay but
  uninspiring. It could fill the Brave Witches popcorn watch niche
  this season. [[→ https://twitter.com/cks_anime/status/817570651796029440]]

* Blue Exorcist Kyoto Saga ep 1: I don't think this was particularly
  good or compelling by itself, & it feels like characters got reset on me.

* Chain Chronicle episode 1: Perfectly competent with decent action,
  but I found it flat and uncompelling. Nothing made me want to keep
  going. [[→ https://twitter.com/cks_anime/status/818269074572644354]]

* Little Witch Academia ep 1: It's not the OVAs but it's solid,
  well done, and more relaxed; there's more time for development & fun here.

* ACCA episode 1 was a good stylish start & had a number of
  interesting characters, but it didn't tell us much about where the
  show is going.

* KonoSuba S2 episode 1: The best part of the episode was the little
  mini-adventure in the ED. Otherwise it was all Kazuma-focused setup.

* Dragon Maid ep 1: That was quality work; nicely understated and
  nicely done, and fun all the way through even when it wasn't being funny.
  [[→ https://twitter.com/cks_anime/status/819766304731238401]]

* Interviews with Monster Girls episode 1 was cute and nice, but I'm
  not sure it has staying power for me (it wasn't particularly funny).

This covers the first episode of everything that seems reasonably
promising for me. It's possible I'll look at *Gabriel DropOut* at
some point, but it doesn't seem like my kind of thing despite its
supernatural-tinged premise.

(From all reports, *Minami Kamakura High School Girls Cycling Club*
simply doesn't have enough biking in it to attract me [[the way *Long
Riders* did LongRidersLovesBiking]]. Apparently the most interesting
biking thing is how they're using real brands this time, instead of the
usual changed-just-enough brand names and so on.)
