I'm hopeful for Mission: Yozakura Family. I have been enjoying the manga of it, basically a normal high school student ends up as part of a family of anime spies, and hijinks ensue. Mostly standard shonen, but I think the family aspect and spy stuff work well with it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4ld49lXSRY

There's some chapters of this scanalated and it is very chill and good. Mysterious Disappearances (Kaii to Otome to Kamikakushi) hasn't been mentioned, but that's on my list as the manga does a pretty good balance between paranormal mysteries and humor, usually at the main character's expense.

So fall 2022 was the first time I actively followed seasonal anime and before that I just watched shows that had already finished. After a year of seasons I've gotten used to the seasonal production cycle. While there are certainly shows I've enjoyed that only ran 12 episodes, I feel that on the whole I don't really enjoy the current format for anime production and releases. Manga adaptations especially feel hamstrung by the format. It's amazing that we're only getting back to Konosuba and One Punch Man this year when their first seasons were eight and nine years ago, respectively. I wish there was a way to fix it, but I'm not in the industry so thems the breaks until something does break. At least if it's a season where not a lot appeals to me that means I can go back and watch older, hopefully finished, shows. Arc Hammer fucked around with this message at 07:31 on Mar 16, 2024 |

There is actually a pretty solid number of shows I'm pretty interested in this Spring Season Konosuba S3 (duh) Spice and Wolf (duh x2) Yuru Camp S3 (duh x3) Demon Slayer (Yeah, I know it sucks, but it is still extremely pretty to look at and that can be enough) Kaijuu 8-gou (It eventually goes to poo poo, like every battle shonen, but the part that anime will cover is actually pretty cool) Ranger Rejects (I won't call it Go! Go! Loser Rangers! I have no particular interest in Super Sentai shows, but I couldn't put the manga down once I began reading. If the adaptation holds, this could be very good) Fable (I was preparing to get hyped, then I remembered how Under Ninja anime ended up.) I will probably watch them all eventually, but I won't be surprised if the only shows I will end up following weekly turn out to be Spice and Wolf and Konosuba.

Aside from Takahashi directing there hasn't been much to justify hype for it despite the manga being great. Fwiw I can see Lt Lizard's point as well, Tezuka Productions has a couple recent adaptations in the same space (Under Ninja, My Home Hero) that were whelming.

I actually dropped Ranger Rejects after reading the first however many chapters and just didn't feel invested in the main character or the villains. Forgot Euphonium S3 is coming up too (there's a total of five series this Spring that are all S3s of their respective series) Nemo2342 posted:The only things I remember liking about that series was that it was originally being scanlated by a group called "We Hate Isekai" and they would do an end page for each chapter dunking on the story. The scanalations are slowly getting to the point where the main character is now just shifting to being a CK player and coloring in maps while gaming the system to find the best advisors, generals, etc.

The only power rangers anime I'm looking forward to is whenever Red Ranger Isekai gets adapted

I've got four more Frieren eps to go before I'm caught up. I liked the breather episode after the first test where everyone is going about their days and Stark keeps picking up randos like a wandering zen master or getting recruited for a monster hunt by Wirbel. Serie sounds like a kid putting on a deep voice to try and sound like an adult.

I would love to see a good adaptation of it, the random explosions and speeches about the power of bonds would be great. That and Yakuza Reincarnation are my mildly obscure manga I want to see an anime for.

the ancient egypt themed kamen rider is rad as heck.

Red Ranger isekai is easily in the top 5 isekai I read. It's very silly, but plays with that silliness in the right ways. The designs are also genuinely great, the rangers having bandage themes to them is ridiculous in the best way. And yeah, the Egyptian ranger style rules. I also really like the villain who was just (re)introduced, he's a jerk But Maybe Has A Heart Of Gold????

It's kinda bonkers that the closest Egyptian themed rider is just one form and its upgrade of the Srcondary in Ghost. The theme of the Rider pastiche is so good and it's probably too dripping with theme to ever be real. Edit: It'd probably work if they made a season themed around world mythologies I guess.

Kingdom is my favorite show this season. I don't know if there's a thread for it because it's such a generic name to search for. The latest episode basically addresses the thing that everyone was expecting to come to a head eventually: Kanki's army is a bunch of pillagers and they put a bunch of juicy defenseless settlements all over the place.

nothing much happened in lv99 villainess recently. story seems to hit a dull point whenever the heroine shows up, should just focus on Yumi and the guy with her just the whole time. do like that unlike other ones, the nobles don't keep trying to pick on her when she's so obviously OP. some other stories, they keep trying to get in the MC's way and its like why are you even bothering when you keep getting blasted away

spent a bit catching up on anime, just caught up on dungeon meshi and a sign of affection dungeon meshi is an exceptionally well-made show - looks great, great characters with interesting personalities, an incredibly well-realized world, and the cooking hook is fun. i've got literally no objective complaints about it, but ultimately, i feel like i like it less than i should because i'm not really into this kind of fantasy story with adventurer/dungeon trappings conceptually. the fact that i like it all is an indicator of how good it is. i still love a sign of affection and a lot of what i said about it earlier still holds - the hook is great and they manage to avoid being cloying about it, it has a wonderful style, and it's really energetic and fun. currently my favorite show this season.

Watched the first few episodes of eminence in shadow. It has like one more joke than the standard isekai power fantasy, but idk. Not really feeling it. Come to think of it "this one is different" has not been true once

the animation studio didn't seem to realize that eminence is supposed to be a comedy until after the first arc. so, they changed a bunch of stuff in that arc to make it less funny (??????????). the anime gets better from there.

While not one of my top favorites last year Shadow was fun cause Shadow is a big dork despite all the stuff going around him and it also avoids the trap a lot of power fantasy Isekai have by having other members of the cast do cool things and be their own characters despite Shadow being the main motivation.
