I'm hoping more than one series will be at least as good as Youjo Senkai (Tanya).

We've already gone through this list in the Winter thread, but there's a TON of potential in this season.

Boku no Hero Academia 2
Berserk 2
DanMachii 2 (Aiz version)
AstroBoy origin
Shingeki no Bahamut 2
Re: Creators (whatever that is, all shows with Re: tend to be good)

Yeah, that should sum up some of the good ones.

My Hero Academia / AoT start today, both should be great.

Started reading the Blame! manga the other day, and I think the movie will be quite good.

What is AoT?

My Hero Academia was primarily a recap episode. They tell you generally what happened last season, and set up some of the story for this coming season. The "big event" is a Sport's thing that the school hosts, and every pro hero in the world attends it to scout new assistants who will go pro on their own later.

It nice to see the characters again, but it wasn't a strong episode. This was kind of a spoiler, but only because the episode was mostly recap.

The manga ofr My Hero Academia is way past Season 2, and it just keeps getting better (imo), I have faith that the animation studio can do the series justice.

lol wait, so there's "Nanatsu no Taizai" which is the Seven Deadly Sins manga/anime that's been around for years, but there's a new anime this season called "Sin Nanatsu no Taizai", also "The Seven Deadly Sins" which isn't related nor has anything to do with the original Seven Deadly Sins series?

Are there no copyright infringement laws whatsoever over there? lolol

Well, I doubt that the Church copyrighted the idea. It's not like it's new you know. And it has been used in anime multiple times.

Watched the first episode of Alive & Zoroku, it was pretty good, kinda interesting that an old man is a main character.

Yeah. Saw it pop earlier, watched a PV on youtube and decided to watch it. I was NOT expecting that from the PV haha. Anyway, the setting is interesting, will watch this season.

I was a bit disappointed with it, they went with a theme of a young son who resents the lack of attention from his father and becomes rebellious. Would have been nice to see Naruto -be- a father and have a good relationship with his son...something he himself never had with his own father while a child. Maybe every Japanese boy wishes he could rebel against his dad? ;p

I think those things will unfold as the series progresses and before Naruto dies. Or Boruto will at least come to an understanding of why the Hokage can't be a stay-at-home dad. Probably while he trains with Sasuke.
