The Fall Season seems to have a bit more mature dramas and less comedy and moe shows compared to the average ratio. There's a lot of sequel anime coming out. Not much isekai and not many web novels/light novels that I've read.

The King's Game got an anime? I read the manga for that a long time ago. If it's based off the same manga I read, it had people raging about how it ended. Perhaps the anime will have people raging too.

I'm planning on giving 12 Taisen a shot.

So far I've only been watching:

My Catastrophic Girlfriend (Chinese anime), Just Because, Net-juu no Susume, Full Time Magister S2 (Chinese anime), Imouto sae Ireba, Kujira no Kora, Boku no Kanojo ga and Houseki no Kuni. I've been skimming through some others, but I haven't fully watched any other episodes.

The second season of Full Time Magister turned into a monster anime and I'm not finding it as interesting as the first season. I didn't get into the first episode of the ecchi girlfriend four panel anime so I guess I'll have to pass on that one.

Houseki no Kuni got me interested in the manga so I read it. I found it pretty interesting. It was hauntingly surreal and intriguing. The main character changed so much, That was quite a journey for Phos. I look forward to seeing the rest of the anime.

I'm enjoying Garo: Vanishing Line. It's got old skool sensibilities, classic characters, and over the top designs.

Recovery of an MMO Junkie (Net-juu no Susume) is also pretty good for a Rom-Com. I would say that Morioka Moriko is my favorite female lead of the season.

Zodiac War (12 Taisen) is OK. I wish the Boar had survived for a bit longer, and the fight between the Tiger and the Sheep seemed like a rehash of the Chicken and the Dog. I have not read the novel, but I'm guessing the Rat will last the longest.

Edit: The Garo clip was replaced.

I've been wondering this for years but...

Why does the artwork in the anime Noein look so fuzzy? Even the Blu-ray version of the anime looks so fuzzy. They must have done that on purpose so that the character drawings wouldn't stand out from the other art, but it's a shame because the backgrounds look so unfocused and indistinct.

I never watched Noein.

Inuyashiki is pretty good. Its opening animation is great.

So far, it's a misanthropic anime, but that is to be expected from Hiroya Oka (the guy who gave us Gantz). Society beats the empathy out of people, and creates self-centered, apathetic, sociopaths waiting to demean others based on the next half-truth sound bite. I did find it a bit funny that in the show the Gantz fan has a normal sense of right and wrong, and the One Piece fan is a serial murderer.
