Orb: On the movements of the Earth: For some reason this anime felt the need to do a fictional recounting of the Copernican revolution, because apparently the real version of events wasn't entertaining enough. I'd watch this show if it were the real history because it seems like a useful thing to know, but I don't need to fill my head with lies. Fail.
Puniru is a cute Slime: The art style sucks and the male lead sucks and basically the show sucks. Fail.
Tsuma, Shogakusei ni Naru: Marrying a loli is every man's dream, but not like this. The loli only visits occasionally after school and offers bentos. Other than that she chokes you or nags you. Then she goes back to her house with her parents. That's not good enough. A real loli marriage can be found in a different show this season, Tensei Kizoku. The protagonist of Tensei Kizoku is a reincarnated adult salaryman into the body of a child nobleman in a fantasy world, Ars. He then marries another child, Licia, the same age as 'Ars,' but not the same age as Ars' total mental lifespan. Through this loophole an adult Japanese man gets to marry a blonde duchess child and she actually does live with him and flirt with him and society doesn't get in their way. That's the loli marriage people are looking for. Everyone should stop watching this series and switch over to Tensei Kizoku. Fail.
Haigakura: The show was too boring to watch so I can't even critique it. Fail.
Raise wa Tanin: A despicable boy tries to pimp out his fiancee so she responds by selling her kidney. Because that makes sense. Fail.
Nina the Starry Bride: A rags to riches story where a pauper is told to impersonate a princess for the sake of smooth diplomacy with a foreign state that's expecting a princess bride. The pauper princess is cute and the story is harmless fun wish fulfilment. No objections here. Pass.
Yarinaoshi Reijou: A washed-up broad gets to rewind her life back to a blonde loli with purple eyes and propose marriage to a better man. The man is a man of culture, and thus instantly accepts and proclaims her loli-hood to be ideal, though it would have been better if she were a little younger, but beggars can't be choosers. What a great anime. If only all girls rewound to loli-hood and started proposing to boys out of the blue! Pass.
All that's left is Ao no Miburo and Touhai: Ura rate. Touhai doesn't seem to have anyone interested in translating it and Ao no Miburo comes out in 11 days, so the first impressions will have to stop here. Overall the picture looks like this:
Here's the good anime that's currently airing this season and is worth at least a try, in the order of how exciting each episode is week to week (not in the order of how good the series is overall, which would favor older/longer series too much):
