What are we watching?

Anime; the one thing that gets us closer to each other and brings us together.
All spoilers must be tagged!
I've recently completed several shows that were in a limbo in my currently watching list.
Fate/Apocrypha - It was a nice action show, especially liked the use of extremely distorted sound effects to portray power. Did not feel connected to any of the characters at all though, there were way too much and the show ended up not giving enough attention to any of them, except maybe Sieg.
Birdie Wing S1- I'm not a golfer, but it was fun, very "anime" show with all the imaginary power-ups and whatnot. Was expecting it to stay on the gambling side of golf for longer than it did, but not complaining. Might watch the second season at some point in time.
Jahy-sama wa Kujikenai! - CGDCT/SoL is not really my jam anymore but this one was enjoyable enough, although slightly boring at times and it took me a long time to finish. Didn't have too many running gags, which is good IMO because those get old fast.
Then I've also been watching the new season of Mushoku Tensei. It's really weird. The pacing has felt super off, and every episode somehow relates to Rudeus' dick not functioning. Which, if you ask me, is not a super interesting plot point to base your adventure story around. Will stick to it though, because I trust the story will eventually get back to the quality it was in the first season.
Jahy-sama has fire OP.
Mushoku tensei has some cut corners plot wise. Rudeus dick is important to the owner and not the viewer. I like it a lot because we still don't get fanservice. In this arc in (WN) I felt like the subplots were more important than main plot.
Cool, some things I haven't seen! I haven't looked into any of the Fate shows yet. Jahy-sama I hadn't heard of, but looks funny. I've been bummed out a bit lately, so some cute and happy are in order. Thanks!
It's certainly a can of worms waiting to be opened. For anime onlies, there is unfortunately no perfect watch order as Fate/Stay Night does not have a perfect anime adaptation, and it is essentially the base for all other titles in the franchise.
If you want to get into the Fate anime series (but don't necessarily want to read the original visual novel), your best bet is to start with either the 2014 Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works series, or 2006 Fate/Stay Night. Neither is a perfect introduction, for reasons that you can search up since this topic is discussed a lot.
After that you can continue with Fate/Zero, and pretty much any of the Fate titles.
