This season:

Ginpachi-sensei - The first episode wasn't as funny as I hoped it would be, and I started to worry the spin-off might not be my thing, but the second one was hilarious. That's my beloved Gintama, hell yeah. The OP is nice, I like it.
Tojima Wants to Be a Kamen Rider - The teacher episode was ridiculously entertaining.
Plus-sized Misadventures in Love! - I love Yumeko's positivity and her pure enjoyment of being her cute self. However, I can't put my finger on why it reads like mockery at times. Maybe due to it being an absurd comedy instead of drama (and Maebashi Witches setting the bar quite high this year). Well, the spirit is there.
With You, Our Love Will Make It Through - The last premiere I wanted to check out. It's... surprisingly entertaining. I'm treating it as comedy, I simply can't take it seriously. I've seen people praising the animation, but it's obvious that it's quite limited; the staff is doing a good job at smoothing it out though.
