Finally sorted out what I will and will not be watching this season.

Dropped:

I'm the Evil Lord of a Galactic Empire: Unappealing protag who decides he deserves revenge on everyone in existence because of two people.
Shin Samurai-den Yaiba: Although I found the Detective-Conan-mangaka-draws-Dragonball artwork style amusing, the story really didn't grab me.
Dinner-Table Detective: One of the characters really rubbed me the wrong way. .

Barely made it:

Yami Healer: The first episode was really awful with its 10+ minutes of continuous harem fluff (made worse because I had no reason to care about the characters), and if people hadn't posted here that the second was much better, this would have ended up in the "dropped" bin.
Your Forma: Dropping the first story arc from the source material, which would presumably have explained more of the background, really wasn't the best choice here, but we'll see where it goes.
