Summer is upon us, anime fans, and with the changing of literal seasons comes also the changing of anime seasons.
I think most of you know the drill by now, but just in case you don’t, here’s how this works. You go to this survey, you check all the boxes for shows you’d be interested in me doing one of my weekly Let’s Watch columns on (there’s no limit. Hell, you could check all of them if you wanted to, as pointless as that would be), and that’s basically it.
I’ve changed the way the list is organized, somewhat. This time around, it simply uses Anichart.net’s order, and I’ve put in every eligible series under both its English-market title and the Romaji title. (In some cases, these are one in the same, those would be the shows with only one title listed.) I don’t use unofficial synonyms. So, for example; Call of the Night is in there both under that title and under the Romaji version of its JP market title, Yofukashi no Uta, but it’s not there under the little-used manga scanlation title Night Owl Song.
As with last season, you’ll note there are a few notable omissions. This is for one of several reasons:
- It’s a sequel to something I haven’t seen, or I otherwise don’t have necessary pre-existing narrative context.
- It’s in “streaming jail”, making covering it weekly impractical or impossible.
- Or I’m planning to cover it anyway. (Although that doesn’t describe anything
I’m not sure how many, exactly, Let’s Watch columns I’ll be picking up this season. There have been some recent structural changes on MPA (I’m sure you’ve noticed, say, the One Piece Every Day project), but I will certainly pick up at least one community pick. This past season I ended up covering the tied-for-third-place Healer Girl as well as the outright winner Spy x Family, so don’t be afraid to punch in votes for obscure stuff even if you don’t think it’ll win. You never know.
I look forward to seeing your responses, anime fans!
