    Went through the list of shows I watched and wrote down a couple thoughts:

    • Tsukimichi - The second cour running during this season has been pretty good. There were some slow moments during a tournament arc, but the final couple episodes have been an excellent payoff.
    • Konosuba - Another season that has come and gone way too quickly. Let’s hope it isn’t 5+ years before we get more.
    • Delicious in Dungeon - The second cour of this show transitioned super well into darker themes while still retaining the goofy cooking humor. Looking forward to another season to wrap up the story.
    • Bartender - This was enjoyable even if it was kind of boring sometimes. Not sure if I would check out a season 2 if it were to happen (no idea if the source material is there). If you are into cocktails, then this show has all the cocktail history and trivia you could want.
    • Appraisal Isekai - The story between Ars and his father was really well done and Mirelle is overflowing with best girl energy. However, having read the manga, I don’t think I would continue this into a season 2 as the story more or less peaks with the father’s storyline imo.
    • 7th Prince - Surprise of the season for me. I had read a good portion of the manga for this, so I already knew about the sussy shota stuff. However, the adaptation for this anime was excellent. The manga has a pretty unique art style (especially later in the series) and the anime was able to adapt it very well. For a newer studio, they really blew away my expectations for this show. Glad there will be a season 2.
    • Level 2 Cheat - Another pleasant surprise this season. The manga was good, but I didn’t have high expectations for the anime. However, the real star of this adaptation was the voice cast. They really brought this show to life. Hoping that this one can continue, but I am not holding my breath.
    • Spice and Wolf - This one is continuing for another cour. I never watched the first show, and this one has been a bit underwhelming so far. I understand that stories can be slow and take their time to build up, but I just haven’t really connected with this one much yet.
    • Loser Ranger - I ended up dropping this about halfway through the season because I ran out of time. I was enjoying it though, so I will probably try to quickly catch up in the inter-season reprieve.

    Based on what I have seen elsewhere, there are a couple shows that I think might be worth checking out sometime in the future when I get a chance. In no particular order:

    • Tonari no Youkai-san
    • Jellyfish
    • Shuumatsu Train
    • Wind Breaker
