RnY isn't all that generic, I mean yeah you got action but at this point in the show you have people pitted against one another when they're supposed to be teammates. Plus I like the art-style.
Buyuden was pretty good, though it didn't really get a proper ending if I recall correctly. (Boxing. similar to HSDK). It felt fresh though. Also funny cause the main girl [spoiler:becomes a fatass later]
Also 'The Breaker', a Korean manwha. Nothing like the crappy korean web comics; looks and feels like a manga, no shitty colors and wasted space everywhere. The Breaker continues as 'The Breaker: New Waves' which finished a while back. It's set up to continue in yet another manga, which will however be put aside for now because the manwhaka (?) wanted to write something else for a while. (Martial arts. similar to HSDK)
Other than that I always hear Hajime no Ipo is really good, though I can't personally confirm it. (Boxing)
Edit: Oh, another one: Tenjou Tenge. It's really confusing though... Written by Oh!Great who also made Air Gear. His stories typically become a clusterfuck as the series goes on D: It's a trip though. Especially since his artwork gets pretty godlike towards the end.
Pretty much read/seen all that. Except for Buyuden.
The Breaker- It was good but new waves is just okay. I doubt the author will continue it.
Hajime no Ipo - Big fan of it, seen all anime series of it (but I kinda feel discourage reading it manga cuz of 1000+ chapters, it takes forever to catch-up)
Tenjo Tenge - It was great, perfect mix of matial arts and ecchi.
Air Gear - hmmm. I think I've seen all anime series bout'it but I'm not sure if I did continue reading it in manga. I can't even recall the plot/story, probably means it sucked.
I have been following a lot of series in anime/manga, But I just can't pin point all manga/anime that I've seen in the past. Sometimes I even read/watch it again before I realized that I already saw/read it in the past which probably means it sucked hard since I forgot about it.
I heard Berserk if on monthly release now, I guess I have reread to refresh every detail of it.
Hmm... I was expecting something more among the lines of having to 'save' Tomori's bro all over, because now that concert thing never occurs, but this is even better I guess D:
Spoiler!

Oooh snap. Nanatsu no Taizai ch.142. That just happened. Man, Ban's stories are so fucking good Q__Q. Every time Focus shifts to Ban I'm reminded why I love the manga so much. ... and when I look at the background art in just about every frame lol.

I agree. These upcoming chapters are going to be killer deadly
I just finished watching the first episode of Comet Lucifer.
It's looking really interesting. It just breathes a lot of personality. I'm getting a vibe similar to Eureka 7 from it. A blend of Eureka 7 and Code Geass or something like that.
I'd recommend giving it a try, anime originals tend to be good
edit: I can't believe I just gave Gakkou Gurashi a 9/10 rating D: If you haven't seen it already and have some interest do yourself a favor and don't look up any information about it. Just go in blind and enjoy the trip.

Looks cool and Netflix is involved, I have high hopes.

So... Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry has the best fights in anime I've seen in years D: The plot and characters are pretty bad, but holy hell the fights are intense sick.
If you're feeling like some mindless action I recommend very highly...

Active Raid - Apparantly made by Code Geass guys Ajin - I've heard the manga was interesting, I reckon it'll have a feel similar to Parasyte? Boku Dake ga Inai Machi - Mystery/timetravel story? Dagashi Kashi - I tend to come across lots of images of this online, so I've built up some interest in it. Dimension W - No idea, could be generic, could be good Durarara X2-3 - Self explanatory Gate S2 - Motherfuckin' AWWW YEAH Kono subarashi sekai no shukufu wo - Light Novel show, dunno. Maybe interesting, but probably generic Koukaku no Pandora - Nekomimi robots, sure... Luck & Logic - Sounds interesting Musaigen no Phantom - Sounds decent enough. Nurse Witch Kumogi-chan R - A show which previously had OVA style releases. It's one of those magical girl Parody shows that are basically always fun. The OVA's had some really nice voice acting, hope that has stayed the same Reikenzan - Hishikuzutachi no Utage - Chinese inspired? Could be quite interesting. Charlotte special - Some extra unaired EP/OVA Sekkou Boys - Only in japan. Short show about an male idol group consisting of 4 Greek statues D:
If you are not watching Boku Dake Inai Machi yet, holy shit, WATCH IT!
This show is phenomenal! Every episode so far has been fucking perfect. It's set to be a straight 10/10 right now.
Also a neat little easter eggs/coincidence about Episode 1: [SPOILER!!!]
Spoiler!
When Satoru realizes where he is at the end, the scene almost completely mirrors the scene in Back to the Future when marty looks up at the clock tower of 1955 . The fact that they're both time travel stories, share the same camera angle for functionally the same scene and use clock towers to cement the setting/date is a lot of coincidences aligning. I want to believe they paid a little homage to Back to the Future
So... aside from Boku Dake Inai machi being the current top show, Konosuba is unexpectedly my number 2. This show is Farking hilarious. Has me laughing as hard as gintama though the humor is just too different to compare. The MC is such wonderful asshole xD

So... I just binge-read this manga called Keijo!!!!!!!!. It's seriously hilarious D: Kinda like Yakitate Japan. It just turns the most trivial shit into so much bullshit it's amazing.
The Gates of Hell Openeth! SPECIAL SUMMON: SHIN-CHAN BARRAGE
Spoiler!
P-P-PENTA-POST!!!

Haven't read too much of it yet since I'm preoccupied with Inu Yashiki, but he's always been one of favorite authors, so it's probably pretty good. The setting is kinda similar to Parasyte, but it's more of a standard shounen. I hope it pulls through in the long run. The mangaka is seriously cursed, every one of his works gets cancelled prematurely, even though they're all really interesting. They're just not suited for Jump I think
Also Bleach is apparently ending this August. I don't think anyone was expecting its end quite that soon... I'm even kinda wondering if Jump didn't seriously get sick of his shit and axe the series. He announced the end was coming quite a while back, but he was dragging it out so long... The current arc doesn't really feel like it's even gotten anywhere yet...
Edit: Read them both, they're new~ish so still fairly few chapters. Both are very interesting
