Man, this season is lit.

CONTINUING SERIES

Dr. Stone - Continues to get better and better with each episode.

Vinland Saga - Not AS good as early hypers made it out to be, but it continues to improve.

Fire Force - Damn fantastic!

RETURNING SERIES

My Hero Academia S4 - ... it's MHA. Fuck yes.

Radiant S2 - I really enjoy Radiant. It will never be one of the "big three" for Shonen or anything, but it's enjoyable like Fairy Tale.

7 Deadly Sins S...4? - I put it on the same level as DBZ. It's not the best in terms of narrative or character development, but those fucking fights are awesome.

NEW ANIME THIS SEASON

Babylon - Excellent intro to the series, intriguing premise. Definitely could be a sleeper hit akin to Banana Fish last year

Houkago Saikoro Club - Cute girls playing board games. Gives me Yuru Camp vibes. Yay!

Hataage! Kemono Michi - Animal lover wrestler who suplexes the princess when he was Isekai'd away and asked to kill monsters? I hope some of the weird furry vibes calm down into the future episodes...

Hoshiai No Sora - The guy who did Escaflowne is doing an anime about... teens playing soft tennis? Sure!

Kabuki-Chou Sherlock - New age Sherlock Holmes in an anime all about competitive detectives trying to solve the same cases? Oh, also, instead of his "mind palace" he does Rokugo to talk out his deductions? Fuck. Yes.

Beastars - Take one part Zootopia, one part theatre drama, and mix in a lot of social commentary and you get an impressive, if not odd looking, anime.

DROPPED ALREADY

Africa No Salaryman - I really hated the animation in it, and the Toucan is gratingly annoying. The Lion is awesome though.

Mugen No Juunin - I actually got a headache while watching with all the flashing bright white they use as contrasting shots. Too many anime to watch one that gives me a headache. (Oddly I have the same issue with Hotline Miami, as that also gives me a headache)

Keishichou Tokumu Bu - That first episode was just not impressive at all. You have this weird juxtaposition between what feels like they wanna do a gritty police procedural, mixed with characters that are superhuman, in a world where humans live with beings like Elves, Dwarves, and Giants? It just didn't work for me at all. Also it annoys me when they in one shot try to make it gritty and realistic, and then later in the episode you have a character who can, AFTER A MACHINE GUN IS SHOT, can jump in the way of the bullets and slice them all in half with a sword. I mean, if you want that kind of world sure, but then make the world reflect that kind of ability. It is like a 12 year old being like, "Ohhh man, and then THIS would happen because it would look cool!"
