Coming Soon: Delico’s Nursery
35. A Journey Through Another World: Raising Kids While Adventuring
Please kill me.
34. Tsuketsu -Fate of the Majority-
I hated this. These killing game shows are usually nasty, but the better ones can at least be entertaining (Mirai Nikki) or do something interesting (Danganronpa 3). This offered nothing.
33. My Wife Has No Emotion
The ideal Japanese wife is actually a robot.
32. A Nobody’s Way Up to an Exploration Hero
Man gets a pet loli. This was insufferably boring.
31. Plus-Sized Elf
At least it’s a different fetish? But no I do not want to watch this. I think this one is too much even for Classy.
30. Nerenare Cheer For You!
Congratulations, they managed to find a sport I have almost as little respect for as golf and baseball. Seemed fine if you’re into this kind of thing though.
29. The Strongest Magician in the Demon Lord’s Army was a Human
Boring first episode.
28. The Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant Used to be Archenemies
Also fairly boring. Cute at times but it could not even keep my interest for the half length episode.
27. I Parry Everything
Super boring until the last twenty seconds.
26. 2.5 Dimensional Seduction
Horny loser helps his clubmate cosplay his favorite character. Trash. Maybe we’ll watch this with Classy?
25. Twilight Out of Focus
Seemed fine if you like BL. Not my thing sadly.
24. Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin
Cool art style but felt slow and not especially interesting. I started the video game (got bored and didn’t play very long) but pretty sure this part of the story was somehow way faster as a video game tutorial.
23. Failure Frame: I Became the Strongest and Annihilated Everything with Low-Level Spells
Isekai revenge fantasy. Decent first episode but these things tend to have the same pattern: initial emotional impact followed by unimaginable boredom.
22. The Ossan Newbie Adventurer, Trained to Death by the Most Powerful Party, Became Invincible
Seemed fine if kind of dull and felt like we’ve seen close enough premises a million times before at this point.
21. VTuber Legend: How I Went Viral after Forgetting to Turn Off My Stream
Surprisingly trashy? Will watch another episode or two at least.
20. Why Does Nobody Remember Me in This World?
Somehow not the usual isekai formula? Reminded me of the mid tier sci fi shows we could get ten years ago. It’s not exactly good but they’re at least kind of trying with the plot.
19. Days with my Stepsister
Honestly I liked this more than I wanted to.
18. No Longer Allowed in Another World
I wouldn’t say it’s good necessarily but it’s at least a bit different from all the other isekai this season! Sure feels like a ridiculous amount…
17. My Deer Friend Nokotan
Fun at times, but these random humor shows have never really been my thing…
16. Bye Bye, Earth
I do like the setting, which is fantasy but different from all the other isekai, and it tried to start with an emotional bang on the first episode. I’m still a bit skeptical but hoping it can win me over.
15. Senpai is an Otokonoko
Cute first episode. Not sure if it can carry it to the end.
14. Red Cat Ramen
Cute first episode. I doubt I will watch it since it’s not really my thing but seemed quite good for its genre.
13. Atri: My Dear Moments
It has an interesting setting although I’m not convinced I’m going to like it. Interested enough to check out the second episode at least.
12. Dahlia in Bloom: Crafting a Fresh Start with Magical Tools
Good first episode, even if a little bit slow. Skeptical it will keep my interest purely based on how many other shows there are…
11. Dungeon People
Cool art style, interesting concept. Enjoyed the first episode quite a bit.
10. Mayonaka Punch
Girl gets canceled for punching people and befriends a vampire. No idea where this is going but was a very exciting first episode.
9. Pseudo Harem
This manga was great and the show seems to be off to a great start. A bit skeptical how it’s going to keep going for an entire season but the first episode was promising.
8. Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian
This sounds like such a stupid gimmick show but I loved the first episode??? Socks
7. Shoshimin: How to Become Ordinary
Reminds me of Hyouka. Some glimpses of very interesting characterizations. Liked how it jumped right into things and left many aspects not explicitly explained for you to pick up on.
6. Wistoria: Wand and Sword
Whoa. This was super well made. The story is in many ways typical (i.e., the premise is basically Mashle except it takes it more seriously) but the show is so well put together, the characterizations are very strong, and I can’t wait for the rest.
5. Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines!
Crap turning them into losers is tricking me into actually liking childhood friends. A diabolical plot. Great first episode, love the premise.
4. Love is Indivisble by Twins
I assumed this was going to be trash from the title and all the past twins romance anime I’ve watched but what in the world??? This looks set to legitimately be the best romance anime we’ve gotten in years. Easily.
3. Suicide Squad Isekai
I knew absolutely nothing about suicide squad before going into this but it’s a lot of fun. The characters always make the most destructive choice at any given moment and seem like they’re having a ton of fun doing so.
2. Quality Assurance in Another World
Damn this ruled. No idea where it is even going but great first episode. Looked fantastic, love the dragons and character designs. And that episode sure went in multiple directions I was not expecting.
1. The Elusive Samurai
Hooooly shit this ruled. I am absolutely pumped for the rest of this. Amazing animation, and overall just fun direction. Great characters so far, especially the priest and his daughter as well as the main kid. Reminds me of Hyouge Mono.
