Shield Hero began today. Season 4. Decent episode.
On top of that, I enjoyed the 2nd episode of Vending Machine. Suddenly he can kinda talk, I guess. I don't really care, but my guess is the writer was having trouble progressing the story via the vending machine dude's earth knowledge before being isekai'd.
if there's no vending machine logic for that, the show will have failed us. His autistic devotion to vending machines is what made the show good.

Clevatess is so goddamn good. It could be the show of the season, which is saying something with how strong its competition is.

Yea, Clevatess went dark/brutal with this episode, I am hoping all the bandits get a very brutal death for their treatment of Nell. The two that Clev kill already got off easy, imo.

I honestly don't know what to expect. Obviously killing all the bandits would be satisfying, but would go entirely against the whole trying to blend in thing, not that Nell is helping too much in that regard... I don't think we can rule out the troll or the water black beasts getting to be the star of the carnage that seems likely next episode.

Cleavetess is going to be something special

There's too much going on this season i can't watch it all.

Betrothed to My Sister's Ex had very strong first episodes for romance/slice of life lovers.​

Dandadan remains goated. Holy fuck that was a dark and awesome episode.

Between Clevatess, Gachiakuta and Dandadan we're fucking eating good this season boys.

What else am I missing?

That's kinda weird. The first season is top tier anime.

Unfortunately the second season badly feels like a filler arc despite being canon to the manga. I only made it about halfway through the third season, the writing for a certain villain was too retarded to tolerate any farther, although I might give it another try at some point.

I'm really enjoying Water Magician. I found that the story began with light novels. The first 3 are available on Amazon, or that website I listed before in the reading thread. I added them to my future reading list, after I finish the 11 books of The Beginning After The End. The book is WAY better than the anime was.

Lord of Mysteries seems ok. I found it hard to follow in the first episode, probably because i wasn't paying attention as much as i should be. The pacing is super fast and the first episode tries to cram a lot in, had to go back to the beginning. But I think it'll be worth it. I'm really digging the color pallets and themes.

Didn't realize Gachiakuta being made by bones. Should be a banger.
I thought the first episode was great, until the end with what appeared to be a cgi monster. Such a let down to see that given the really nice animation and aesthetic of the show.
