It's a pain to write them or copy them here so just check my list.
The Fable has been a quite funny series. I enjoy it.
Also Boukyaku Battery is surprisingly good. Wasn't planning on even watching it and started 4 episodes late.
Otherwise, Mushoku Tensei, KonoSuba and like 10 more.
Today, I may be a weak little bug that gets tossed in the wind,
washed away by the currents, and drowns, but tomorrow,
I may become the butterfly that spreads its colossal wings and flies the open skies!

I'm enjoying them a lot, but I'm enjoying the most Kuroshitsuji, because it's been 8 years since I watched the first season and Spice and wolf, because I'm watching it with my fiancee <3

I'm watching a lot of anime this season. Some of it is sequel season content from series I've been watching for a while.

The new shows this season that I'm watching have been very enjoyable though. My favorites right now are Yoru no Kurage wa Oyogenai and Girls Band Cry.

No crazy expectations from me this season. I expected Hibike! S3 to be amazing and it has been really good so far. Having a new season of Mahouka to watch has been a treat too. Feels like forever since the previous season of that show aired.

Τoo bored to write them down, so feel free to check my list.

As for my expectations, I'm actually quite surprised. It's not the strongest season I've experienced, but I've been enjoying it more than I was expecting at the beginning, when I was creating my Spring 2024 list

Watching each week & will finish it:
Mushoku Tensei II: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2 (can we drop with all the drama & start adventuring? -_-')
Kaijuu 8-gou (1 of my favorites this season)
Lv2 kara Cheat datta Motoyuusha Kouho no Mattari Isekai Life (Fenrys carries this show)
The New Gate (I was reading the manga, before I started reading manhwa)
The Fable (the other favorite of this season)

Watched something of it & might drop anytime:
Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo! 3 (1 ep - it was a cold shower tbh)
Maou no Ore ga Dorei Elf wo Yome ni Shitanda ga, Dou Medereba Ii? (2ep - I dunno if I'm not in the mood for romance or this one is just not good enough as a romance)
Unnamed Memory (2ep - same explanation as ^)

Still have to start watching:
Kimetsu no Yaiba: Hashira Geiko-hen
Sentai Daishikkaku
Bartender: Kami no Glass
Kenka Dokugaku
Highspeed Etoile (the score is so low, it might be a 1ep drop)
I don't know who quotes me and then deletes the comment, but know that you make my day.

I'm only counting series new to spring of 2024 and not continuing series which are airing presently week to week but which started in an earlier season, of which I'm watching two (Dungeon Meshi which started in the winter of 2024 and Tousouchuu: Great Mission which started in the spring of 2023). I'm also not watching any returning seasons of pre-spring 2024 series, of which a few currently airing are from series that I've watched and followed, but am not at the moment due to reasons.

All others are fair game.

I'll rank them from best to worst (or from my personal top favorite to least favorite, if one prefers to look at it that way) and provide the tentative/speculative ratings. A lot of my numerical ratings will be the same as there are only so many available digits for ratings and it takes a whole lot to move that needle, but that's why the numbered rankings exist to provide more of a distinction. Only one series, the first series listed, because it's an ONA which released in its entirety in one batch at the same time/on the same day, has an actual final rating applied to it. Because all of it already concluded airing it's one of only two I was able to complete and the only one I actually did finish thus far. And I don't actually formally rate anything in practice until total completion so all other ratings are just theoretical mental speculation for the time being and subject to change:

Anyway:

1.) T.P. BON - 7/10
2.) Tonari no Youkai-san - 7/10
3.) Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku? - 7/10
4.) Astro Note - 7/10
5.) Yoru no Kurage wa Oyogenai - 7/10
6.) Kaii to Otome to Kamikakushi - 6/10
7.) Girls Band Cry - 7/10
8.) Blue Archive the Animation - 6/10
9.) Karasu wa Aruji wo Erabanai - 6/10
10.) Sentai Daishikkaku - 6/10
11.) An Archdemon's Dilemma: How to Love Your Elf Bride - 6/10
12.) Henjin no Salad Bowl - 6/10
13.) Ooi! Tonbo - 6/10
14.) I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince So I Can Take My Time Perfecting My Magical Ability - 5/10

Plus:

- Grimm Kumikyoku - N/A for rating yet (just started and still too far behind)

May still watch:

- Highspeed Etoile

That is all.

Kaiju n°8


This is one that, without knowing anything about beyond its overview archival page on MAL which I look at for all anime, I started watching, but for whatever reason very shortly into the first episode was overcome with an instinctive sense that I would strongly dislike, so instead of watching straight through, clicked around to a few different scenes, it then looked like something I'd really dislike, so then ended up dropping after a few minutes from the first episode watched, never having even added to my list.

That isn't that an uncommon of an experience for me. I usually do that with at least a few series per season. I just found it funny when I learned after the fact that this was apparently one of the most hyped and popular or successful ones.

I'm just chillin with KonoSuba, Yuru Camp and Hibike! Euphonium, and watched Kurayukaba and Kuramerukagari and I don't understand why the former is preferred over the latter.

Those Train to the End of the World and Loser Ranger sound tempting, also Jellyfish.

@WatchTillTandava At first Kaiju n°8 made me think it was going to be about cleaning up the city from monster remains but no, it's a battle shounen. You can't have original things, you just have to suddenly become overpowered and fight fight fight.

"So your judgement is clouded because it's not what you were expecting!" No, even without that premise I'd still strongly dislike the appalling comedy, the MC that is basically an adult reskin of you average whiny teenager shounen MC ("you don't understand, it's supposed to be a shit MC so it's ok!") and the lazy power system based on who has the bigger number.

Yeah, from the description I actually thought it was going to be something closer to Bullbuster - a kind of workplace mecha Sci-Fi series from the autumn of 2023 season last year which was nothing exceptional but I liked and had some interesting aspects and its own charm. Instead from what little I saw I just witnessed a bunch of the annoying type of yelling cheesy comedy and generic tropey battle shounen stuff I don't care for.

Even though my favorite series of all time and a large part of what got me into anime is Inuyasha, which is technically a battle shounen, ironically I seldom watch other battle shounen, so stuff like this which instantly marks something for me as a standard battle shounen is usually a quick turn-off. Initially in my tentative mental assessment I had a higher opinion of and rated higher a series like Sentai Daishikkaku from this season, which has a potentially great and exciting premise, but with the past two episodes I'm starting to become a bit annoyed by it and see it starting to tumble down on my list even below other (in my view) 6/10-tier series for the same reasons.
