Could use a light topic from all the bs, with it nearly being Christmas so why not look at the one medium not actively calling white people devils.
I'd say it was a good season personally, feel free to put down what you liked or want to recommend. Here's my picks:
Standouts/ must watch: Bleach TYBW, Chainsaw Man, Mob psycho 100 III and Spy x Family cour 2
Suprises: The Eminence in Shadow: I went in blind to this one and the tone shift from ep 1 after credits was massive. A very good show with the perfect mix of cringe and badass scenes.
Akiba Maid war: Yakusa gang wars but in maid cosplay, seriously
Personal likes:
Reincarnated as a sword: could easily be dismissed as isekai trash but has cute then brutal moments mixed in (Fran's hands all I'll say)
Mobile suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury: despite early attempts by leftists to call it yuri, no it's just a good introduction to Gundam for new viewers, excellent art and has the political intrigue you expect from Gundam.
Ituma-kun season 3: it's my lighthearted weekly watch.
Would like to highlight Isekai Ojisan is back after both Netflix and production hell which is also worth a watch.
I'm glad it's getting a season 2, that seems to be the trend now of getting second seasons.....unless you're called No game, no life...
Actual PAIN! I miss that one, had amazing animation, cool main characters and the setting is not the usual thing. Sad, really.
No word on that getting a season 2, but you know what is?
In another world with my smartphone
Fate, why do you mock us so....
That one is probably worse than the slime one. I still do not get why people enjoy this one so much, mc is op and focuses on the mc, nothing really happens etc. I gave it a fair shot(3/4ths of season one) and then I hear friend say "it gets good after x" why is it not good now?
As an Isekai connoisseur, I will say Slime is a good series and can just bring up one way it's better than smartphone to show how bad it is
The slime characters HAVE character, the each had personality that they could make a lighthearted spinoff and the story payoff in season two worked. Smartphone's characters are REALLY bland and 1 dimensional.
Edit: I will say the WORST isekai I ever watched was 'Isekai cheat magician', I dropped that after 3 episodes, GOD it was bad, it didn't deserve the Myth and Roid op it got!
