A new season is about to start (or has started in the case of the Love Live spinoff), and for those of us who watch seasonals, I’ve been wondering what you all are planning to try out.
You can check what’s going to air here (Anilist) or here (MAL).
I’ll post my own list in the comments.
I’m usually watching a ton of shows each season, though I also end up dropping a lot of them as the season goes on.
This time I’ll give a try to:
- Zom 100
- Megane
- Liar Liar
- Vending Machine Isekai
- Seven Spellblades
- Hero Classroom
- Saikyou Deshita
- Dark Gathering
- Saint Cecilia
- Helck
- Yumemiru Danshi
- Yohane
- Murder Farce
- Unique Skill
- Last Boss
- Temple
- Dekiru Neko
- Ai no Idenshi
- Ayaka
- Synduality
And watch the continuations of:
On the hype train for reincarnated as a vending machine
Unironically, same here. Reincarnated as a Sword was good, I’m hoping the Vending Machine is just as solid.
This is going to be a light season for me:
I only intend to watch:
Jujutsu Kaisen s2
Last Boss Queen
Nier Automata ep10-12Will try out:
Undead Murder Farce
Saint Cecilia and Pastor LawrenceIs on thin ice for previous season I disliked:
The Devil Is a Part-Timer! (2023)/Hataraku Maou-sama!! (2023)Man Part-Timer’s ending was spoiled for me and now I have like no motivation to watch. I watched last season but I forgot how much fan service the show had and I don’t know if I can bring myself to bother with it this season. It was pretty boring and bland last season.
I’ll give it a try, but I don’t expect to continue past the first episode unless it’s somehow really good as unlikely as that sounds.
Ohh so less incentive to continue if the ending sucks too.
Watch:
- Helck
- Zom 100
- Mononogatari 2nd Season
- Atelier Ryza
Will checkout:
- Saint Cecilia and Pastor Lawrence
- Ayaka
- Hyakushou Kizoku (as an FMA manga reader, I love Hiromu Arakawa tales about her time on her family’s farm in Hokkaido)
Might watch:
- Jujutsu Kaisen 2 - still have to watch the movie first
- other things but spontaneously
I don’t really watch stuff as it airs, but the shows I’m excited for this season are:
- Mushoku Tensei 2
- Seven Spellblades
- Classroom of Heroes
- Liar Liar
There’s some other fantasy/isekai and romance that looks interesting, but I’ll wait and see what the community thinks of it before I decide to watch.
Gonna be watching these, but aside from Horimiya I’m not sure I’ll complete them.
I haven’t watched the original series for most of the sequels this season, so my watchlist is as follows:
Plan to watch to Completion:
-
Ryza no Atelier: Tokoyami no Joou to Himitsu no Kakurega
-
Uchi no Kaisha no Chiisai Senpai no Hanashi
Plan to give 3 episodes:
-
Shiro Seijo to Kuro Bokushi
-
Level 1 dakedo Unique Skill de Saikyou desu
-
Liar Liar
Plan to give 1 episode:
- Umarekawatta Ore wa Meikyuu wo Samayou
I’d like to give Mob Psycho 100 a try this season too. Also the Yuru Camp Movie, which I started but never completed as I got distracted. I’ve also had Log Horizon on my “Watching” section for a while now without actually watching it, so hopefully that as well.
Oh man if you haven’t seen Mob Psycho 100 you’re in for a great ride. It’s got some top tier fight scenes and some of the best characters.

Wow, even Masamune-kun’s Revenge is getting a second season. Never thought I would see it getting one.
On that there are so many sequel these days. Feels bad about they days back when even good anime usually only get one season with no closure because the manga is still publishing while nowadays even mediocre manga are getting second and third seasons.
Being honest, I feel like other than the sequels to beloved franchises, there is not much good this coming season.
That said, some friends and I have been getting together every Sunday to watch through some of the stuff that is airing and will probably continue with that in the Summer. To that end, the crappy isekai is great to riff on even if it is not that good.
Shows that I am actually looking forward to:
- The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses
- My Happy Marriage
- Liar Liar
- Reign of the Seven Spellblades
- Saint Cecilia & Pastor Lawrence
- My Tiny Senpai
- The Dreaming Boy is a Realist
- The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen: From Villainess to Savior
- Helck
- Zom 100
- Atelier Ryza
- Mushoku Tensei S2
- Masamune-kun Revenge R
- Horimiya -Piece-
- Rurouni Kenshin
- Sugar Apple Fairy Tale Part 2
Shows that might be fun to riff on:
- Hero Classroom
- Reborn as a Vending Machine, Now I Wander the Dungeon
- My Unique Skill Makes Me OP Even at Level 1
- The Great Cleric
- Am I Actually the Strongest?
- Sweet Reincarnation
- Level 1 Demon Lord and One Room Hero
May seem like a lot, but I’m the type to try anything that seems to be remotely interesting. Then, after a few episodes, I will decide on whether or not to continue watching. Case in point, I had 30+ shows on my list this season. Even including the seven crappy isekai I’ve listed, there are only 23 shows on my initial docket.
I’ll probably watch Jujutsu Kaisen S2 and Nier Automata once the rest of its episodes release. Otherwise I’ll sit tight and see if anything else piques my interest
I always pick one show for each day of the week. Some variety without overloading myself.
This season is Jujutsu Kaisen, Helck, Vending Machine, Liar Liar, Rent-a-Girlfriend, Horimiya and Zom 100.
I’m… Truthfully not expecting the most it this season, but I’ll be happy to be proven wrong.
Just started the Gene of AI. Good science fiction about a AI future.
I think we’ll start on The Ancient Magus’ Bride S2. Really liked the first one and didn’t really expect a second season, so excited to see what S2 has in store.
