thorfinn steppin out at the end of ep 24

Horimiya second season will be dropping as well

What a legendary career she had. RIP

Man i just cant dig kenshin's new voice, hate to be the nostalgic one but his 90s voice was more fitting

I know I say this literally any time there is a season with more than two shows I give 7/10 but this actually was one of the best seasons in years.

Skip to Loafer - 8/10
Heavenly Delusion - 8/10 + best animation + best background art
KamiNaki - 8/10
Uma Musume Road to the Top - 8/10 + best storyboarding

BokuYaba - 7/10
Birdie Wing S2 - 7/10

Oshi no Ko - 6/10
Idolmaster U149 - 6/10 + best compositing

KonoSuba Megumin Version - 5/10
Witch from Mercury S2 - 5/10
One Turn Kill Nee-san - 5/10 + best ED

Magical Girl Destroyers - 3/10 + best OP

What did you not like about Mercury this season?

Magical Girl Destroyers was such a big disappointment to me after episode 1 man.

I thought it was going to be a new cult classic

The political side of Mercury is half-baked, and that's me being generous. The political side of Mercury was a half-assed effort that was only tacked onto the show because it's supposed to be Gundam's shtick. It would be fine if the shows was 50 episodes so it would have time to actually explore that side of things, but the 24 episodes it has just isn't enough to split time between the interpersonal relationships of the characters, their own personal growth, and the political side of things. It should have just committed to being an Utena clone that happened to have mechs as a setting the same way Star Driver did.

I agree with you there. As a Gundam fan, the political mindgames is something I usually look forward to in every Gundam but Mercury is not that strong in that aspect. I feel like the team actually did think these things through but maybe because of the limited amount of episodes it feels forced sometimes.

Season’s over so it’s time to rank

1. Vinland Saga - Everything about it made it anime of the year 10/10

2. Demon Slayer - Amazing animation, two one-hour specials which were both fire, loved the demon that split off into others that was great, and of course the ending was one of the best 8.8/10

3. Hell’s Paradise - Surprising, mysterious, exciting. Couldn’t have asked for more. First ep was kinda trash but quickly recovered every ep after that. 8.5/10 (I think this might have one more ep)

3.5 Dr. Stone (forgot) - Exhilirating like always, but something is missing. Still great tho 8/10

4. Mashle - Fun 7.8/10

5. Heavenly Delusion - Animation was good, story is meh. This had the chance to top the list but fell short 7.5/10

Now let’s get ready for JJK & RENT A GF SUMMER

I'm three shows into my PV watch for summer and I already want to give up.

best ed this szn

I'll miss skip to loafer, didnt want it to end tbh

Tbh, i agree with this. You can see it the clearest in the latest 3/4 episodes, pacing has skyrocketed in a way. Show needed to be longer to flesh it out more, cause the actual political conflicts are interesting, just rushed

Still have to watch that final demon slayer ep but i need to prepare myself for 1 straight hour of mediocrity

I'm postponing that for the longest. that s*** is so boring I'm on my phone the whole time

At least season 2 was entertaining, this one is so boring

I'm behind on Hell's paradise and Dr. Stone too.

I also want to watch Oshi no ko will probably catch up to it after the season ends.

I opened it up then closed it immediately when I realised it was an hour long
