Anime watched recently...

Garagntia of the Verdanious Planet 
Magi The Labrynth of Magic
Euphoium
Valvrave The Liberator

More notes in a bit, but the first three have been fun to watch.
Okay, now that I have a minute.  I liked the overall world of Gargantia, but it felt like the three girls were supposed to be main cast but then they were not.  Lots of interesting themes about transhumanism, what it meant to serve, what it meant to be a part of the community.

Magi, for all its discussion of 'Dungeon Capturers' has a distinct lack of Labrynths and Dungeons in the first series.  I like the characters and so far it is avoiding most of the shounen anime where there is yet another bad guy to beat who is just that much stronger. (I liked Air Gear, but this really abused the sorting algorithm of evil trope.)

Sound! Euphonium is too much fun to watch. It feels a lot like K-On but a lot more coherent at the beginning.  I keep watching the teacher managing to scold and criticize his students and still manage to keep a smile on his face and a upbeat tone in his voice.  Going to definately keep watching this one, just to see how the Concert Band turns out.

Now it's time to take a second look at Majestic Prince.
