I don't blame you for dropping Ryza. I am going to give it one more episode before dropping since I have heard good things about the source from a friend that is excited about it, but so far I have found it very dull.

My current watch list:

  • Mushoku Tensei
  • Jujutsu Kaisen
  • Horimiya

  • Loving Yamada at Level 999
  • Skip & Loafer
[-] Localnative13@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

So is this season of horimoya counted as s2? Or a completely diff spinoff?

[-] SnowGator@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

From what I understand, it’s filling in parts of the story that were skipped in S1. So not really a S2, and not really a spin-off. I’m not sure exactly, but I think the first couple episodes of Pieces were set roughly 1/3 of the way through S1?

I’m enjoying seeing the characters again, and there have been some nice moments.

[-] youslashuser@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It's be closer to season 2 than spin-off.

[-] jmp242@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

I found the vending machine one to be strangely interesting in a stereotypical kind of way. Kenshin I'll probably drop, seemed like a direct copy or close enough of the original and live action movies. I liked My Happy Marrige a lot more than I expected and really need to see the next episode to make a determination. I really didn't like The girl I like forgot her glasses. The production is... something, and not in a good way. And the story isn't catching me.

[-] Aeryl@lemmy.fmhy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Watching all the releases and I'm waiting for three episodes before I start dropping shows but following are the ones I enjoyed: Liar liar, Zom100, Mushoku tensei, Helck, Vending machine, and Thighza.

The rest had to be on 1.5 or 2x speed or else I would've dropped it before the 10minute mark of episode 1.

[-] nadeshiko@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Definitely going be watching the new seasons of Mushoku Tensei, Jujutsu Kaisen, Link Click, & Horimiya

For new shows, I’ll watch: - Vending machine isekai - Am I Actually the Strongest? (I’m a crackhead for op mc isekai) - Liar, Liar

I’m also going to try out rent a girlfriend but not sure I want to suffer for another season.

  • Tiny Senpai

Want to start:

  • Jujutsu Kaisen S2
  • My Happy Marriage
  • Atelier Ryza
[-] erabus07@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I was hoping this season was the season I would have the chance to rewatch some favorites of mine but my list is getting longer than anticipated.

  • Fate Strange Fake
  • Helck
  • Shiro Seiko
  • Ryza

3 episodes:

  • Zom
  • Dark Gathering
  • Rurouni Kenshin
  • Chiisai Senpai

Shows I might not actually watch because I read the manga (exceptions include Helck and played Ryza):

  • Suki na Ko ga Megane... (Damn GoHands is walking a very fine line with this one)
  • Temple
  • Masamune-kun
  • Horimiya

How do I watch so much? I don't. Some of these will be dropped halfway through or altogether when the new season starts.

[-] Sabakodgo@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I am not watch anime seasonally usually but: Vending Machine and Jujutsu Kaisen S2, also started One Piece finally, on episode 12 so far.

[-] Jawzper@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Struggling to find anything to watch this season. Seems like most shows this season are either continuing series that I don't care about, or fall pretty firmly into my "don't bother" list: uninspired isekai schlock, drawn out will they/won't they romcoms, and contrived harems in which everyone inexplicably likes the self-insert main character just because he's the only "nice" male in a 50 mile radius.

Ryza is okay but the characters are absurdly dumb (let me closely inspect these blue flowers to check if they are white or not). Zom 100 seems all right and is well animated but the first episode of [40 minutes of generic Japanese salaryman backstory that I don't care about] was really tedious to get through. I gave the vending machine a chance for at least trying to be unique but was not at all impressed - it's just the same isekai crap beneath the surface (just buy the exact skill I need to solve each problem that appears). Will probably try to watch the first 3 eps of Helck in one sitting because people have been enthusiastic about it, hopefully it's decent.

If anyone has any recommendations for a good comedy or fantasy series I'll check it out, otherwise it's probably gonna be a backlog season for me.

[-] madnerds@midwest.social 1 points 1 year ago

Try undead murder farce of you haven't already

[-] Jawzper@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks, I'll check it out.

[-] Pencilsharp333@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Pretty slow season for me, I'm only watching 4 seasonals.

BanG Dream myGO!!!!! had an excellent premiere, dropping 3 episodes at once with #3 being a very memorable one. It focuses on a brand new set of characters too so you don't need previous knowledge of bandori to try it.

Both Undead Girl Murder Farce and My Happy Marriage are quite good in their genres, the audiovisual production is the standout for me.

Synduality Noir was shaky, some promising moments but I'm not sure if I'll be watching it by the end of the season.

Hirogaru Sky! Precure continues to be very strong! We're in mid-season finale time and it delivered, along with a cool new ED.

Giving a 3 episode trial:

My Happy Marriage Undead Murder Farce Synduality Noir

[-] 02blood@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I generally only watch one or two shows as they air each season and then binge them at the end because I can’t stand the wait, so my pick this season is the vending machine!

[-] Cyreld@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm more or less trying out everything this season (been doing so for a few now).

The big names are all awesome as expected but I'm really enjoying a lot of the smaller ones as well.

The romcoms have been a lot less enjoyable for me this season so far (last season was STACKED), but I'm still seeing some flashes of brilliance here and there.

[-] Sekemoto@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Watching:

  1. Jujutsu Kaisen S2
  2. Mushoku Tensei S2
  3. Zom 100

Finishing from last season:

  1. Dr Stone S3
  2. Heavenly Delusion

Hoping to finish the ones from last season soon, so I can start more from this season. I try not to watch too many anime per season as it just gets too hard to keep up.

Want to watch:

  1. Reign of Seven Spellblades
  2. My Happy Marriage
[-] harry_nola@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

My happy marriage is beautiful (so far). I never thought i'd be into period drama anime, but hey here we are. I'm hooked!

[-] WadamT@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Watching 10+ more shows. Currently enjoying My Happy Marriage, Zom:100, Mushoku Tensei s2, Helck the most.

[-] wjs018@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Not sure if I should dive into My Happy Marriage or not. From the synopsis, it almost sounds like a courtly love kind of thing, but I have seen some good reviews, so I might give it a shot if it keeps being well received. It could fill the Raeliana-sized hole left after last season.
