The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady may be the weakest of 2023 Yuri anime I'm looking forward to but I still love the LN and hope the anime gets to volume 3 where things really start to pop off

I'm hoping this is one of those seasons where I go in expecting to watch nothing and end up watching 8 because not much is leaping out at me rn. I'll probably check out some of the fantasy shows anyway: The Magical Revolution, Revenger and Kaina of the Great Snow Sea. I misread the handyman isekai as highwayman isekai and got very interested for like 5 seconds. Nephthys fucked around with this message at 01:21 on Jan 2, 2023 |

handyman is a good manga that will need a great deal of editing to work as an anime at all.

endo and kobayashi commentary should be good goofy fun ice guy is a gentle romcom I expect will be overshowed by angel next door and kubo-san, but it also seems to be the only OL-focused series this season will keep an eye on the girls judo club series

What grim prospects this season. But then, winter is not known for bountiful harvests. I'll be checking out the second season of Bofuri--the first was nice and relaxing. I like the Magical Revolution manga, so I'll see if the anime is any good. Vinland Saga season 2 is an automatic watch. I'll wait and see what people think about the new Trigun.

Jokes on you I asked for a forums ban from D&D. Anyways a lot of these shows sound kinda lame so I'll wait for the herd to thin out before I pick anything to watch.

I'll probably watch the new PA Works anime because Akiba Maid War turned out to be a hit, along with Bofuri s2, Inspecter s2 and Vinland Saga s2. Maybe Tsurune s2 and Nier but will see my schedule. A lotta S2s, looks like.

Watching: Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san 2nd Attack (Don't Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro 2nd Attack) Itai no wa Iya nano de Bougyoryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu. 2 (BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense. Season 2) Kubo-san wa Mob wo Yurusanai (Kubo Won't Let Me Be Invisible) Tsundere Akuyaku Reijou Liselotte to Jikkyou no Endou-kun to Kaisetsu no Kobayashi-san (Endo and Kobayashi Live! The Latest on Tsundere Villainess Lieselotte) Tensei Oujo to Tensai Reijou no Mahou Kakumei (The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady) Optimistically giving a try: Benriya Saitou-san, Isekai ni Iku (Handyman Saitou in Another World) If I somehow have time for more anime there's a couple more fantasyish series I recognize that might be fun to give a whirl, but unless something bombs I think I have more than enough to watch.

It's hardly a new practice, lots of shows have done similar things in the past like zoku owarimonogatari and yamato 2199

Isekai Ojisan should also be added to the 'leftovers' list for the second season running, the final episode was supposed to air Dec 29 but has been delayed https://twitter.com/isekai_ojisan/status/1607330557134000130
