I need to have a better look at the upcoming season, but I’m definitely watching Doctor Stone and Dead Mount Death Play. Not sure about Frieren. Love the manga, but I usually struggle with adaptations even if they’re good
Frieren is going to be a cult classic alongside Mushishi, Kino no Tabi, Haibane Renme, YKK and a few other similar melancholic works. I just don’t see how they are planning to get mass audience.
I agree though. It isn’t going to be on the level of popularity as something like chainsaw man. It’s more of a quiet, contemplative story with a few exciting action scenes.
Waiting for SxF, Dr.Stone, Eminence in Shadow, … comeback. Heard a lot of great things about Frieren and Apothecary Diaries, definitely watching those. New Boss anime sounds funny to me.
And Pluto is not included in this list (maybe because it is listed as ONA?). It is coming on Oct 26.
Not really. Arknights is suprisingly good for free to play player though it can be a bit slow to get the ball rolling for newer players. I admittedly spent a money when I started out but have been f2p for a majority of my time with it and have no issues getting the premium currency for free from weeklies/dailies rather than buying it.
Faraway Paladin 2nd Season? I’m hyped. Not much else that I’m overly looking forward to in terms of sequels, though (I’ve sworn off AoT for now until it’s genuinely over).
Which new shows do you folks foresee making the top ranks this season? Most of these titles are totally new to me, though I’ve heard that the 100 Girlfriends manga is kind of notorious. Maybe that’ll be this season’s so-bad-it’s-good show?
100GF is an actually great manga. Fully self aware of how absurd it is and plays it up really well to hilarious effect. What I am not sure about is how well it can be adapted to anime. I frankly think the humor won’t come across as well, but am definitely going to be checking it out.
Frieren has all the markings of a great show based on the staff and the source material is truly excellent, so that is one to watch.
The last one I am going to keep an eye on is Tearmoon Empire. I haven’t read it, but the LN series is very beloved.
They are similar in that they are very silly, comedy first romcoms. The main difference I think is that there is very little to no drama around the fact that the MC is dating multiple people. Everybody just accepts that fact and moves on. It becomes a running joke in the manga when the MC introduces a new girlfriend. 100GF mainly uses the cast of girlfriends to drive the comedy rather than actual relationship stuff.
Aside from Frieren, which was already mentioned, the Apothecary Diaries has a shot at it if it’s well done. As far as I know, both the light novels and the manga are fairly popular.
