• Miru Tights

I didn’t have a thing for tights and stockings untill I saw Miru Tights. This anime made me appreciate stocking, tights and feet related stuffs after watching.

Best to start is series that are finished with one season (24 max). My recommendations

• Charlotte
• Odd Taxi
• Gurren Lagann
• A Place Further than the Universe
• Cyberpunk Edgerunners
• Ping pong the Animation
• Lycoris Recoil
• Tatami Galaxy

Yes. It doesn’t look like normal mecha anime but I don’t see it as a parody anime. I believe it can be a good anime for starter since Gurren Lagann shows how crazy and stupid anime can be sometime.

Ya Boy Koming

Carole & Tuesday

I haven’t seen this one yet. Judging from the MAL genre tag, this will has more drama elements than the shows you mentioned.

Wow. I didn’t expect that.

Mushi-shi and Violet Evergarden have been recommended by others and I also highly recommend them.

Agree. Better keep those in PTW list for now and watch those later after getting familiar with anime troops.

Watched quite a few show this season. The two that stood out for me is, not surprisingly, Frieren and Apothecary Diaries.

I am not Frieren source reader, so I didn’t know what to expect, but everyone was hyping about it. That made me watch it and it didn’t disappoint. I have never gave a show 10 in MAL but after last episode of Frieren, I gave my first 10/10 score. Also I heard about really good things about Apothecary Diaries and went in blind. The thing I like about Apothecary Diaries is, the lead female character. The story is not that unique if you have seen a handful of historical Korean or Chinese Drama but still it is interesting to see how MC solve the disputes. Love the chibi character moments in this.

Another anime I want to talk is Solo Leveling. I read the manhwa and it has really good art and it works really good for vertical scroll reading. I didn’t think it would translate well for animation. But Studio A1 did their best in animation and the music by Swano made me hype for the MC fights. Also really love the anime added development for side characters.

Ishura is an anime that is best watched after finish airing. The first four or five episodes are new characters introduction but after that the wait really paid off. Jumped on Ninja Kamui hype train mid season, decent revenge story with good fights. Really had high hopes for Metallic Rouge, but didn’t meet my expectations.

Banished from Hero Party s2 more focuses on new hero but the main MC couple also has their moments too. I don’t know why I like this series, maybe because its chilly story and MC couple moments.

Yes, OST is good. I still had some hope for this even after midway. For me, it just got worse. It feels like the story doesn’t know where to go so they just glue random events together. It is definitely let-down anime for Studio Bones 25th Anniversary.

Season 1 just ended this Friday.

I am not a sport anime fan, but Yuri on Ice made me interested in skating anime. Also this manga is well received so I am looking out for this one.

The brief shot we got of one in this PV wasn’t bad

The fact that Studio ENGI is responsible for “Detective is Already Dead” and the director has only a few shows in MAL listing make me nervous about the show quality but hoping and praying for the best. Really would love to see more “Yuri on Ice” quality skating anime again.

S1 is good for me as a source material reader. My minor gripe is the anime tried to rush some things and changed narrative to fit the 13 episode run. OST is awesome as it was done by Kelvin Penkin.

Thanks for the comment. I was going to pass on this one judging from visual. Now I have watched the PV and this one is definitely going to my PTW list.

The striped aliens look like Dada aliens from Ultraman

Since there are lot of parody characters in the series, maybe this one is also.
