    I'm definitrly expecting Case Files to be my AOTS. Dr. Stone, Arifureta, and Vinland Saga sound interesting.

    Assure follows

    Lord El Melloi II case files: I've been following the novel since my jump into fate series and I've pretty much fallen in love with the characters. The novels being adapted not being translated yet as well as the fact that the first half is anime original gives me a lot to look forward to. That said, I find the Mage craft info dumps extremely boring and have never been able to make it through them, though the animated format should make them more bearable.

    Araburu Kisetsu no Otome-domo yo: I've been following the manga of this for a while. It's honestly really weird and kind of overdramatic, but I can relate to doing stupid shit due to your self perceived "sexual awakening", the story is actually kind of funny plus the production values look great.

    Toaru Kagaku no Accelerator: the manga has it's issues, but I'm weak for Accelerator and Last order interactions

    Watching out of curiosity

    Dr. Stone: I have started this manga three times. I drop it on the exact same page everytime, the page where the girl is introduced. The art is good but the artist's doll style for the girls is extremely off putting to me. The Character visuals seems to make it more bearable though so I'll try it out and see why it's so hyped up.

    Enen no Shouboutai: if I were to describe this show, I'd compare it to a dish that you assume will be super spicy thanks to it's colouring, smell and all the pepper chunks but it tastes like tomato sauce. No matter how far I go the pacing always makes me feel unsatisfied by the end. I want to see if the anime will fix it.

    To the abandoned sacred beasts: after war story looks rather interesting, though the execution may not be as nice as the synopsis but we'll see.

    Vinland Saga: things been hyped to hell and production values looks amazing so I'm curious.

    BEM: Ever since Dororo I've decided to give all reboots of old franchises at least one episode.

    Naka no Hito Genome [Jikkyouchuu]: it just looks kind of cool.

    Interest is dependant on one thing

    Ensemble stars: I Know idol games don't care about their female MC's that much so depending on her relevance (or even existence )to the story I might follow it.

    Everything else is a hard pass though. Especially the Isekais, I find myself bored of most Isekais recently but these ones certainly take the cake

    I'll certainly be watching the Latina Show, Case Files, and Assholefureta, and I'll try out all the other isekais too - even though I expect them to be garbage. I might give Machikado Mazoku a try, too, since I'm a sucker for any variant on the mahou shoujo genre.
    But in terms of good shows for next season, I don't expect much.

    Kanata no Astra: it's not typical shonen jump work with typical shonen comedy style.

    pretty interesting so far.

    Sacred Beasts: Wow, That escalated quickly. The show basically starts with the end of Berserk's Golden Age, complete with Griffith wrecking Caska and monsters running loose on the world.

    Glad to see Kanata no Astra looking good. Nobu being Eugeo Charce makes me laugh though.

    Firefighter was awesome, david pro delivers with Trigger vibe.

    Granbelm: I just appreciate SD (and not CG) robot anime, it has better animation than any recent robot anime.

    I've watched Uchi no Musume twice now (the channel appears to have looped it at least four times total by now) and while Latina is cute, the overall production values seem pretty low...

    Just checked out the first ep of Dr. Stone. I really like it so far. The shots of the world after humanity turned to stone were gorgeous (it helps I'm a sucker for those kinds of "civilization returned to nature" setups) and both the main characters and their interactions were really likeable and entertaining. I love how Senku is a science-minded MC who doesn't fit the usual clichés of being cold-hearted or apathetic.

    One thing that bugged me though is the plot-point of the MCs still being conscious throughout their entire time in stone. Realistically, even the absolute strongest-willed people would go crazy after literal thousands of years of total isolation, much less a pair of highschool kids. It wasn't really necessary either aside from a few details like Senku knowing how much time had passed since they were petrified, which could've been cut out without really affecting the plot. It did make for a badass scene when Senku said he was sure Taiju wouldn't give up on confessing to Yuzuriha after a thousand years though.

    Case Files seems interesting, gonna have to wait for subs to actually tell most of what went on but visually and from a direction perspective it looks to be solid. Symphogear was, as always, FUCKING HYPE, and although the first episode might not rival that of GX or AXZ in terms of fights, the plot is certainly moving forward rapidly. Plus several great songs in quick succession, this season's OST is going to be amazing.

    Watched the first ep of that dumbbell anime on a whim.

    SoL isn't usually my thing, but I found myself liking this a surprising amount. Hibiki is a really endearing down-to-earth heroine, and Akemi's muscle-fetish and over-the-top facial expressions are hilarious. I cringed when Hibiki's "friend" was chewing her out for snacking though. The way she was basically ridiculing her to her face for being "fat" (even though she looks just barely chubby and her listed weight is perfectly normal) was just gross and clashed with the show's overall good-natured atmosphere. Like, I get there had to be some setup for why Hibiki needed to go to the gym, but it's this kind of thing that can literally drive people to anorexia.

    Also, fun fact of the day. Apparently this series is set in the same universe as Kengan Ashura, a manga by the same author. When Akemi mentions she had a sister who got her into bodybuilding, she's referencing a character from that series (even has the same muscle-fetish, though not nearly as over-the-top given Kengan's more serious tone). Pretty hilarious that the light-hearted ecchi comedy and the intense ultraviolent fighting series are set in the same world.
