Spring season is rapidly approaching! It’s time to start looking ahead to the next season and thinking about what is worth watching vs. what isn’t. This is also the official thread where I will watch for shows that you mention and will enable threads for those shows to be made by our resident bot, @rikka@ani.social.

    Alright, here is the list of things I have my eye on for next season:

    Definitely Watching

    • Witch Hat Atelier - basically all the source readers are saying this is a must-watch.
    • Kirio Fanclub - I love this manga and I cannot wait to see these delightful weirdos on screen

    Watch Curious

    • Akane-banashi - I have heard good things about the manga, so I want to check this out time depending
    • Needy Girl Overdose - I have a friend that was really into the game this was based on. I will be interested to see how this gets adapted.
    • Marika’s Love Meter Malfunction - This is a short anime, but the manga it is based on is absolutely nonsensically silly (in the best way). Might try to keep going with this since it will be quick.

    Might Watch

    • Daemons of the Shadow Realm - Same author as Fullmetal Alchemist…it deserves a shot
    • Goddess: “What Do You Want to Turn Into When You’re Reincarnated in Another World?” Me: “Into a Hero’s Rib” - I mean…this sounds just crazy enough to work…

      Marika’s Love Meter Malfunction

      This one didn’t even catch my attention the first time through the list, but in the course of browsing for other thread responses, I finally really focused on it, and yeah - it looks like it could well have potential.

      I was looking at “Yuusha No Rokkotsu”/Hero’s Rib and forgot to add it to my list.

      It looks crazy enough with its mix of animation, live action, and crazy art styles to actually be entertaining.
