I am looking forward to weekly episodes of Ushio and Tora as well as Dragon Ball.

It is 1993, gently caress what the calendars say.

It's not just those two, Ranma's back in spirit, there's a Sailor Moon episode popping out every once in a while (even if it's really weird looking), there was just two years of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure... Good anime is back.

I'm not even sure what a gritty deconstruction of an old fashioned demon battling shonen manga would be like. First of all, it probably couldn't be gritty, because that poo poo's already gritty.

Maybe a a not-gritty deconstruction, where the youkai are all happy go lucky Youkai Watch looking goobers, and the protagonist is the crazed lunatic who terrorizes them for some reason

So something like Azazel-san
The later parts of the Chimara Ant arc of Hunter x Hunter where getting close to deconstruction when the ants started to regain old personalities, maybe?
The Devil is a Part Timer? That one seemed more like a comedic inversion instead of deconstruction though.

How would you deconstruct something that boils down to one character punching/shooting another character with [magic power]?

It's always fun when a villain goes Okay, plan A is boring, I guess it's time for plan KILL EVERYONE

And then they actually follow through.
