This includes anime that has been announced, as well as manga series that have yet to have an announcement, but definitely will have one sooner or later. Personally, the top three right now are Apothecary Diaries (predicted to release around Oct 2023. highly, highly recommend), Sakamoto Days and Dandadan

    Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End and Delicious in Dungeon for me. Both manga are outstanding fantasy that aren’t isekai and I think will translate really well to being animated.

    In no specific order:

    • Tate no Yuusha season 3
    • Mushoku Tensei II
    • Spy x Family season 2
    • OPM 3
    • Youjo Senki II
    • Tsuki ga season 2

    The fact that five of them are isekai series and only one is shōnen is a coincidence, I warrant you. I’m totally not hooked in isekai. Not at al…

    …holy fuck new season of Saihate no Paradin! Make it 6/7 instead of 5/6!

    The next season of Mushoku Tensei / Jobless Reincarnation.

    I’ve watched the series three times. The world-building and storytelling are exceptional.

    This year I haven’t felt the interest / captivating anymore, but I’m hoping the interest will return once the third season finishes airing, or when I start rewatching it for it.

    On rewatches I’m skipping the longer flashback scene. I find it very unfitting.

      It’s weird how much of a hit-or-miss MT is. I love it too; people call it “the grandfather of isekai” (that’s only partially true), but it’s from a more civilised time, when protags didn’t have a [INSERT YOURSELF HERE] sign on their necks.

      Fair but spoilerless warning, if you don’t follow the manga, LN or WN: it’ll likely start with an event that a lot of people feel rather meh with. But it’s mostly a plot device.

      Kobayashi has a pretty good story and the whole atmosphere is really nice, but that character design is not really that good honestly.

      I really loved the first season, but never got around to watching the second season. I feel like the manga was loosing steam too, but maybe that was just me losing interest. I hope you get it, though.

    Waiting for the new season of Mushoku Tensei. After watching the first season I decided to read the novels which was an amazing experience. The story shifts its focus, but it is still as interesting as it was in the beggining.

    Rurouni Kenshin. Loved the first anime adaptation. Hope this new one will be better with great fighting scenes and badassery!

    Next season looks pretty great, at least better than the current one IMO. I am most looking forward to the vending machine isekai.

      I’ve honestly been thinking this season is way too stacked to the point I’m constantly behind (Demon, Slayer, Oshi no Ko, Dr. Stone, Tengoku Daimakyo, Tonikaku Kawaii, Insomniacs after School, Dead Mount Death Play just to name a few I find noteworthy).

        Oshi no Ko just isn’t my cup of tea, though I did love Kaguya-sama, they are just very different things. I am not up to date on Dr. Stone, ToniKawa, Smartphone or Kuma, so those are just going in the “later” pile for now until I can catch up on them. I am watching and really liking Insomniacs. Konosuba Explosion has been about what I expected (fine, but just not as good as the main story). Also Yuri Job has been alright. It just feels like last few seasons had at least one thing every day that was interesting to me, less so right now.

        Overall I am basically watching 3 shows this season (of maybe 5 or 6 I am interested in including S2s and such) vs 16 in Winter 2023, 12 in Fall 2022, 16 in Summer 2022… It just seems that this season overall has less that interests me. I am all about SoL and RomComs… and I have been pretty spoiled for the past couple years, haha.

    I cant wait for Dandadan. Really curious who would want to pick it up. Some of the fight scenes would be pretty tough to animate.

    I wonder if Ufotable has any new shounens on their plate after Demon Slayer. They should pick it up. MAPPA already has too much tbh.

      Absolutely agree with this. I just started reading it out of boredom and it sounded ok based on the synopsis I read… well it was nothing like what I pictured and I was hooked immediately. Been binging ever since.
