2025 - witch watch, boy girl friendship, kowloon, to master swordsman. I personally enjoy Summer pockets as well, but I don't think it's a good react material.
2025- "can a boy-girl friendship survive" Its on crunchyroll (I can feel the toxicity in this one lol)
2025 - what happened to Moonrise? I remember there was some talk about it
Its kind of dumb fun but two of the anime that I am enjoying are; Uchuujin MuuMuu which is about alien cats that destroyed all the smart people in their world so they came to earth to learn about our tech but all they have are the idiots now. It's turn off your brain fun and i think Adorkable would really enjoy it with you guys!🤭 The other is Ballpark de Tsukamaete! which is a slice of life about a girl that sells beer at a ball park and the corporate slave that she has as a regular customer. It also has moments with the other people that work there and the people who watch the game. It's like a nice cup of tea/coffee after working all day!😌
rock girl anime (jabami and mary the musical)
Witch watch and Sword of the demon hunter from me.
The Too Perfect Saint From Old Country Bumpkin To Master Swordsman
YES!
Evil Lord Shiunji Family should be interesting for new anime still airing
Boy girl friendship
2025 rock is a lady's modesty
(2025) My current top 3 of animes that you arent already watching are: - Witch Watch (Good comedy and a really fun watch) - I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire (Crazy release schedule, but still, the first 3 episodes were good and I just really like the MC, simply put, he is not a wimpy coward like most isekai/fantasy male MCs. ) - The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows (Also a strong minded MC, and the quality so far has been great for a junk food fantasy anime.)
2025 - Witch Watch, Yaiba, From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman
2025 "Summer Pockets" from the current season
Kowloon and Boy Girl Friendship are the 2 you aren’t covering right now that I look forward to watching weekly currently. You can get a mystery bunny from style romance and a classic toxic love triangle Loser Ranger S2 as well but I’m a manga reader so I know how good these next couple arcs are…but I get the hype fall off the Exam arc felt too long in the manga too Also Moonrise but that has been discussed here and discord about Netflix completely screwing it up release wise but it was a dope series
Can a boy girl friendship hold up - definitely has potential. Havent read the manga so gonna watch it weekly to see where it goes. Maybe blue hair girl wins for once???
Kowloon and Witch Watch are the two best shows I'm watching that you're not covering.
2025 the ones im most excited to watch every week are: The Too-Perfect Saint: Tossed Aside by My Fiancé and Sold to Another Kingdom The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows From Old Bumpkin to Master Swordsman
Thank you
idk about anime, but this season I want to recommend a hit new audiobook with an amazing story. They also have a couple of lovely art frames each ep, to follow along as you listen to the podcast. It's got goated voice actors too!; Black Clover Asta, Frieren Fern, CSM Pochita. It's only got 3x audiobook eps out already, and I found it amazing listening to them. It's a little underrated, but I hope you'll enjoy it as a solo reaction. It's called "The Beginning After the End" on Audible.
Sword of the Demon Hunter
2025- Witch Watch Can a Boy-Girl friendship survive Kowloon Generic Romance
Thank you
Most interested in seeing reactions to: Kowloon Generic Romance Rock Is a Lady's Modesty Witch Watch Can a Boy and Girl Friendship Hold Up?
“2025” Can a boy girl friendship survive!
"2025" "Kowloon Generic Romance" - I really like the opening song by Wednesday Campanella. "From Old Bumpkin to Master Swordsman"
Thank you
Can a boy girl fruendship survive, witch watch, Kowloon
I started The Beginning After the End. My God is the animation terrible. The story is cool tho lol
I'm watching Rock is a ladies modesty. My favorite band did the OP and a couple of them did motion capture for certian segments
Witch Watch
2025 If you're asking about what current anime I'm watching, I got a list of 30 anime I could give you... But, since the "Collective's" taste in anime sometimes runs counter to what I like, how about these... It seems like you guys like "To be Hero X", you may want to check out "#Compass2.0: Animation Project", or better yet check out "The Super Cube"... I see that a lot of people are recommending "Witch Watch", which I like, buuttt, I'll recommend "Once Upon a Witch's Death"... And since you're already reacting to "Lazarus", "Devil May Cry", and "My Hero Academia: Vigilantes", I'll recommend "I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!", "Fire Force Season 3", and "A Ninja and an Assassin Under One Roof"... The "Collective" may deem these anime acceptable, "The Too-Perfect Saint: Tossed Aside by My Fiancé and Sold to Another Kingdom", "The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows", and "Rock Is a Lady's Modesty"... But if you looking for an anime to just chill out to, I'll recommend "Zatsu Tabi: That's Journey", and/or "Mono"...
You probably missed a fire force but we’ve started that
Witch Watch is a must!
2025- Witch Watch. Kowloon. Can a Boy-Girl friendship survive.
2025. So I'm glad you guys are giving The Beginning After the End a shot here as it's one of the series I am actively watching and enjoying. Now I understand that one of the main reasons some people are kinda on the fence about it is that the animation is not the best, and maybe it's that my eyes are kinda going as I am about to go over the hill, but it doesn't seem all that bad to me. Regardless I'm pretty sure that the studio publishing TBAtE is a relatively new one, so you can't expect them to be putting out Sólo Leveling-level episodes from the jump. In case nobody remembers, when RWBY first came out the animation wasn't exactly consistent. That's because the people at Rooster Teeth were new at doing a show like that: until then their biggest project was the Red vs Blue series, and the rough animation was part of that series' charm. However, as the people at RT gained experience RWBY's visual quality improved, and it was the story that kept fans coming back volume after volume, and that's the kind of thing that I can see happening with TBAtE as the story already has me hooked. Anyway, to those who sat through this lengthy rant I thank you, and Lee I'm definitely looking forward to your take on this series.
Just because it is a new studio doesn't absolve it of it's horrible and mismanaged work. It's a pretty beloved series by a lot of people and to see it treated this way is just sad. They have been having issues with this long before it ever came out.
Can a Boy Girl Friendship Survive, and Too Perfect Saint are my picks
Ninja and Assassin under one roof
Witch Watch and Yaiba
"2025- "Witch Watch" and "Ninja and Assassin under one roof" and "Can a boy-girl friendship survive" and "Yaiba"
2025 I would say "Witch Watch" for romcom and "From Old Bumpkin to Master Swordsman" for a fantasy show. I see "The Beginning after the End" in the link you sent and I've heard only negatives about the anime adaptation. I'm also enjoying "Can a boy girl friendship survive" so far but you guys only have so many slots
2025 Glad to see y'all looking at intergalactic empire, I see a bunch of people saying witch watch as well so i'll through my support behind that as well Also having all the girls in their party dresses and then having that goblin picture, somebody isn't getting the same respect as the others lmao.
"Witch Watch" "Rock is a Lady's Modesty" "Kowloon Generic Romance" These 3 are probably what I'd look forward to the most as reactions
2025, Yaiba. WIT Studio, Mob Psycho director. Can't guarantee popularity, but I know you guys would like it. Roshi is watching it. On more niche stuff, this season I'm also liking Apocalypse Hotel and 'Country Bumpkin Sword Master' or w/e.
Also in case you want to know, intergalactic had early release on streaming but is still being released weekly on tv, so that’s why the delay. Streaming services released 3 episodes early and now have to wait to catch up on regular release. Still worth checking out, it has a great story
For 2025 spring, Imma say Shiunji Family, Can a boy girl friendship survive, and The Too-Perfect Saint since these are my top anime this season
That saint one hits way more than I thought it would. Genuinely pleased.
2025 - "Witch Watch" definitely one you guys would enjoy. Also hope you guys check out "A Ninja and an Assassin Under One Roof" the humor and animation is pretty great.
You guys aren't watching a romance this season. I would recommend "Can a boy girl friendship survive" first two episodes were really good. My second choice would be Witch Watch
Uma musume Cincerella gray! 2025, 2eps have sorry so far. Sports anime about japanese race horses turned into girls. The horse girls are all based on a real race horses and the story/ major races are based on actual races that happened. Great animation good music! Each season is its own story so you don't have to watch the other ones. It's being released on YouTube by the license holder for free. I highly suggest just checking out the first ep if you want. Cygames the company making it has been killing it
In USA it's not on YouTube though. It's on Amazon here. Only Europe, Africa and Austraila (? not sure) got it on YouTube, Asia got it on Netflix lol. It's like each part of the world have it somewhere else. But I also am for it, would be great to see reactions from the duo/trio on this show.
Brother. Witch Watch. What are you waiting for
He doesn’t listen to us, even though he says join the discord for more discussions🥲
