Upcoming Fall Anime
Heyo all!
Sorry about the inactivity. Some personal stuff going on at the moment. Unfortunately there is no member of the month for August, but it will resume in September. Randomization from previous nominations will be considered for the September choice.
Here are some interesting anime to look forward this fall. Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance to watch all the (new and old) anime that I had planned, but I'd like to hear if you got around to that! If so, what anime(s) did you watch this summer (or still are planning to?). Post in the comments!

However, Takeru cannot use guns at all and can only fight with a sword. As a result, he is relegated to the 35th Test Platoon, the motley "small fry platoon" for poor students. One day, Ōka Ōtori, the ultra-elite pistol master who already has her qualifications for witch-hunts, joins the platoon.
That's it for now. There are actually a few more interesting anime coming out, but I randomly chose 5. I will make a post about manga (& video games) as well!
