Mari Okada sure is busy with a billion shows a season.

Not that I am complaining, I love her works.

<3 Toradora

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

I'm 100% in for My Hero Academia. I also want to watch Flying Witch. I swear I watched an anime with literally the same plot as Netoge no Yome wa Onnanoko ja Nai to Omotta? Original much?

 

[Kthulhu]

I can't wait to finally see Part 4 animated. So many great fights.

 

[Cornbread78]

I always prioritize anime original series and Mayoiga sounds promising.

Yeah, Mayoiga's description caught my eye and I'm really looking forward to see how they play it out.

 

[striferser]

Thanks Cornbread.

Spring looks awesome
Jojo, Sakamoto, Flying witch, Kumamiko
All over my body

Edit: oops, Mob Psycho not a spring show.

 

[Yonafunu]

Thanks Cornbread.

Mob Psycho isn't Spring tho

 

[Cornbread78]

OP(s) updated to put "Swagmoto" near the top and added a couple shows

 

[striferser]

Mob Psycho isn't Spring tho

oops, brain fart.
Thought it was spring <_<

 

[kewlmyc]

I'm in for Jojo and Ace Attorney.

Will give My Hero Academia and Not-Attack on Titan a shot as well.

Probably Ushio and Tora S2, but I need to catch up on S1.

Also, I swore Tales of Zestiria the Animaton was airing in Spring but I guess it got delayed.

 

[RangerBAD]

Cornbread doesn't care about Valkyries. ; ;

 

[Cornbread78]

No Macross Delta?

Ok, OK, I forgot, my Bad...


It's been added now.

 

[nintendoman58]

There's no sense in arguing this. Studio Deen has its reputation for a reason. One modern show that isn't trash won't erase that. We'll see how they move forward from here but to claim that they are better than Ufotable is laughable.

Sure it can. It's called retribution.

Whether they'll keep it up remains to be seen, but that's no reason to dismiss a show just because it has the Studio Deen name on it.

It's not out there for a show made by one studio to be better than the last few shows another studio with better production values made.

 

[RangerBAD]

Ok, OK, I forgot, my Bad...


It's been added now.

All is forgiven.

 

[Cornbread78]

All is forgiven.

I feel much better now.

 

[Dennis]

lol gotta watch Attack on Train for sure.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Forgot Ushio to Tora was coming back.

This Spring is packed. I will easily have a half a dozen shows I am watching.

I'll bite, what is Swagamoto?

OP(s) updated to put "Swagmoto" near the top and added a couple shows

 

[DominoKid]

definitely gonna watch
- My Hero Academia
- Swagamoto (fucking finally. i hope they dont fuck this up.)
- Joker Game
- Bungou Stray Dogs
- JoJo Diamond Is Unbreakable
- Ushio & Tora (still on S1 though)

maybe
- Kiznaiver
- Kabaneri

 

[Dennis]

Why no Prison School and Attack on Titan seasons 2?!

What is taking so long?!

Asking for an upset friend.

 

[Defuser]

Swagmoto was on other's /last minute recommendation initially? Cornbread you dun goof. Go and read more manga or hang out at mangagaf.

 

[SalvaPot]

ok Sakamoto has my attention, should I read the manga or just wait for the anime?

 

[Hellsing321]

Oh shit Sakamoto is getting an anime?! Fuck yes! The studio has me worried though

 

[Rebel Leader]

ok Sakamoto has my attention, should I read the manga or just wait for the anime?

I would wait to see what we swag-readers think about the anime

 

[Moaradin]

I mean.. he's right. The only good thing to come out of the Fate franchise is Fate/Zero, and that's because it was a completely different thing.

Anyone who calls Shirou a bad character never saw Gilgamesh get wrecked.

Lol, don't hate, I've never read manga before. Reading has never been a thing for me past school..

Is it...your penis?

 

[King Gilga]

Season is too stacked, hope there's not too many surprised because I just won't have the time.

Wrong. Studio matters. Studio Deen is the soup kitchen and Ufotable is the world class restaurant. Put world class chefs to work in a soup kitchen and no matter how hard they try, they're still working in a soup kitchen with cheap ingredients.

It's not a dated meme. Log Horizon season 2 wasn't that long ago.

Deen had two shows this season incomparably better to UFO ubw so...

Wrong:

Anyone who calls Shirou a bad character never saw Gilgamesh get wrecked.

Only because "I'm too brain dead to wear my anti everything armor so I'll just wear this shitty stupid lookin g half shirt even though I had this awesome fur jacket in the other route." Gilgamesh lost half his brain cells that season.

What garbage writing to let the mc win.

 

[Cornbread78]

If anyone has a good weite-up that answers "why" someone should watch Swagamoto, I'll add it to the OP

 

[Maximilian Kolbe]

Hey OP can you add Hai-furi, after read recent info about this show, i believe it could surprise us.

 

[King Gilga]

You can't reduce Sakamoto into words.

 

[Cornbread78]

Done.

 

[Yawnier]

I always prioritize anime original series and Mayoiga sounds promising.

Yeah same here. I've never heard of the studio that is making it tho. Hopefully it is at least decent.

 

[Sparkedglory]

Every season it seems a studio sends a pebble down a mountain made of things I hate about anime.

Netoge no Yome wa Onnanoko ja Nai to Omotta? appears to be this season's snowball.

I'm looking forward to it. I like silly tropey shows every once in awhile

 

[Cwarrior]

Finally Diamond is Unbreakable the jojo I've been waiting for.


Knowing bones there going to fuck up MHA but redeem themselfs in the reboot X amount of years later.

 

[Cornbread78]

I'm looking forward to it. I like silly tropey shows every once in awhile

I'm always down for some good sophomoric humor. I'm interested to see how this one turns out.

 

[WickedLaharl]

Super Lovers

Genres: Comedy, Drama, Romance, Shounen Ai
Manga/ Studio: Dean

Super Lovers is a wholesome manga focusing on the heart. Striking at the core of what makes a human a human it brilliantly highlights the touching relationship between a young orphaned Canadian boy taken in by a prominent writer's family. After a fateful encounter over the summer, the manga switches gears and becomes a dazzling coming of age story of the adopted boy and his relationship with the Kaidou family in Japan.

This innovative series goes against the grain for the romantic drama. Featuring people pursing their dreams of starting their own business while working at a host club, a boy as he grows through the years out of his natural Canadian environment and in the dazzling cities of Japan, and the myriad friendships and family relationships that develop in Japan, it has something to appeal to everyone. It will have one of the purest and most pleasing brotherly love moments anyone could ask for animated. Its a must watch.
-Yes, this is BL

wtf is this. I'm not getting a wholesome vibe here.

I'm always down for some good sophomoric humor. I'm interested to see how this one turns out.

Much like Shomin Sample, it's pretty obviously ecchi and stupid humor but the execution is good enough that it's withstandable and oftentimes funny. An adaptation can make or break it though because Shomin Sample's was really hit or miss and instead of focusing more on the jokes and situations they focused on the tits and thighs. Netoge isn't nearly as good of a series, the Shomin Sample manga is much better, but it still has it's good points (the three main girls are pretty great, especially once the main girl gets development into...well, you'll see). That said at least the art will be a lot better. Netoge's manga art is pretty rough. Looks good on first glance, but no matter which direction the character faces their boobs are like full forward and it's super distracting. Dude contorts bodies into weird pretzel shapes.

 

[WickedLaharl]

DTL.

That means absolutely nothing to me. I came into the thread looking for what's on the horizon. Are these not accurate descriptions?

 

[OniBarubary]

Just don't watch Super Lovers.

 

[Cornbread78]

That means absolutely nothing to me. I came into the thread looking for what's on the horizon. Are these not accurate descriptions?

The descriptions are better when read as "Why" someone would want to watch it, especially when the show is based off existing source material from manga/LN. We got user descriptions as a better way to connect to the show in some cases. Below is the standard synopsis found on MAL or multiple other sites.

While spending summer with his mother, Haru meets Ren, a boy newly adopted by his mother. Getting along with Ren isn't easy as Haru's goal is to "civilize" him by the time summer ends. Their relationship slowly improves as Haru spends more time with Ren and in return Ren steadily warms up to him. Can they really become a "family" at the end of summer!?

(I'll add to the OP)


Also, here is a description of the genre this falls under:

DTL is a super yaoi fan with idiosyncratic tastes that few others will agree with. Why Cornbread took descriptions from him for this thread is beyond me.

 

[OniBarubary]

Almost positive it was a long con to get people to watch a yaoi show.

 

[Cornbread78]

DTL is a super yaoi fan with idiosyncratic tastes that few others will agree with. Why Cornbread took descriptions from him for this thread is beyond me.

Is his opinion any less valid than anyone else that provided feedback from the manga/anime threads? Everyone in any of the threads is "idealistic" in what they think is "good," as well as, what their interpretation of what the show is and why other would like it. There are quite a few others here that are Yaoi fans that may not be as open and opinionated as DTL, however, that doesn't mean I discount what his user feedback/description is. It could very well be a fair assessment of the manga/anime; I have no idea personally. It is tagged as Shounen-Ai clearly under Genre and I noted again below that it was BL.

 

[WickedLaharl]

Oh okay.

Based on the OP i'm only really interested in Kiznaiver, Kabaneri, My Hero Academia, and maybe Bungou Stray Dogs.

Okay, as awesome as those gifs look, that doesn't exactly serve as an argument as to why he's a good character.

How about explaining his character development, flaws, how he's different other anime protagonists, etc?

He starts out being a generic 'I want to protect everyone!' hero, but eventually learns what the cost of that really is, and how it's not a realistic perspective. It also continues on from Kiritsugi's outlook in Fate/Zero.
