Didn't Oshii also make a series that conspicuously had the words"ghost," "in," "the," and "shell" in the title in an order that would not get them sued?

Shiro (GitS author) has another series called Pandora in the Crimson Shell. I don't think Oshii has anything to do with it tho.

I'll check out Fire Force and Dr. Stone but I'm not expecting to keep an interest in either of those. What I'm really looking forward to is Vinland Saga, and then of course whatever smaller scope shows seem to catch on in this thread. Those usually end up being pretty good.

I read the Fire Force manga, and own all the volumes so far, about 14 right now. I think it's really good, interesting characters, good world building, and interesting mysteries and good fights. I hope it will be popular.

Is this all the anime that's going to be announced? I had my hopes up for So I'm a Spider coming out this season, but I'm not seeing an announcement for it anywhere.

The anime was announced in July last year, and there still hasn't been a release date announced for it yet. I think all that we know is that it's being produced by Jōtarō Ishigami.

Not true. We also know that it has some really awful looking CG for the main story.

Perhaps the producers saw Slime Isekai and declared "Nope. No way Spider can compete with this. Let's just pretend it doesn't exist."

You must've been reading the web novel spoilers. I'd suggest talking to Doomrider about them.

The pacing just died right when I was hoping we were really about to take off. I remember hearing that there was some sort of publisher mandate to catch up with the manga or the novels or something, which is unfortunate.

I'm definitely going to check out Vinland Saga and El-Melloi Case Files. Really hoping the latter fills the Fate/Zero-sized hole in my heart that UBW didn't live up to, since wizards being terrible people is my favorite part of the Nasu-verse.

I'll also watch O Maidens In Your Savage Season, since girls being perverts is my One Weakness™, and we've been sorely deficient in that area since B Gata H Kei aired (oh god) almost a decade ago. That dumbbell show might be interesting, so I'll take a look. Both of these shows I might end up dropping once the novelty wears off, but they have my attention.

Possibly will follow Granbelm, Dr. Stone, and Joshikausei. Granbelm's 10-minute preview didn't really do much for me, but I'm getting some interesting vibes so I'll let other people do the legwork and let me know if its worth watching. Also heard good things about Dr. Stone, so we'll see if that can overcome my inherent aversion to all things Shonen. Joshikausei's fate will be determined by how well it lives up to the gender-flipped version of Nichibros I've crafted in my head.

Did you watch Seitokai Yakuindomo? That was pretty much the entire point of that show.

:same:

...since we knew both season 4 and 5 were coming before season 4 aired, I feel like Crunchyroll intentionally held off on licensing s4 until now-perhaps they thought they could license both seasons for cheaper/ AXZ would get more attention/views with XV being there right after?

Ao-Chan Can't Study isn't as lewd but it does get funny.
Please Tell Me, Galko-Chan isn't horny on main but it's a funny kind of schoolyard sex myths chatter that's played for laughs.
