Spring 2024 series poll closed!

Thank you to all who voted in last week’s poll, which received more votes than any that I’ve previously run! Very much a two horse race, with the leader changing more than once throughout the week. The final result:

Poll: Help me choose a series for my Spring 2024 lineup!

Spring 2024’s anime lineup looks incredible, especially when it comes to sequels and reboots… to the extent that I’ve not got much room in my lineup for the all-new titles! So once again, I turn to my blog readers for help narrowing things down.

Here are three anime that interest me, but didn’t quite make the cut due to the strength of their competition. But one more won’t hurt! Vote for your favourite, and I’ll squeeze the winner in somehow.

Yes, I skipped a season with these polls… though my winter list did feature the continuation of past winner Synduality Noir!

Here’s some info on the series, in alphabetical order, plus my brief comments about them. Or, skip to the bottom of the post if you just want to vote. 😛

Spring 2023 End of Season Rankings

Here are my final thoughts on last season’s anime; quite a few changes to the rankings this time, and a couple of new entries too!

Nothing here is continuing into the summer, so expect a completely different mid-season list in just over a month~

Spring 2023 Mid-Season Rankings

DAMN, this is good anime season. Unlike Winter, where I made a picked up a few dodgy, middling series, so far everything I’m watching this Spring is at least ‘good’. Here’s my full lineup, and what I think about them, starting with an unexpected title in last place:

Poll closed! I think?

Thank you to all who voted in last week’s poll! I’m not sure whether I’ve managed to close it properly or not, still wrapping my head around the new ‘Crowd Signal’ site WordPress is using for polls, but either way I’m going with the result as it is now, no further votes will be counted. The winner:

Poll: Help me choose a series for my Spring 2023 lineup!

I’ve managed to post once a month for the last 13+ years, and I’m not going to stop now! But the Winter season hasn’t quite ended, still waiting on a few stragglers, and it’s been too busy a month with work and anime conventions for me to prepare anything else. So, for the sake of getting something out with a March 2023 timestamp, let’s have a poll! WordPress has changed how they work since my last one, so this should be interesting…

I’ve narrowed down the anime series I most want to watch this Spring to 10 series, with a few starting as early as tomorrow! But, with so much airing each season these days, there are always some that just miss out on a spot. Here are three series in that predicament. Vote for your favourite, and it will join my lineup!

Ousama Ranking will likely be in my lineup, along with at least three other continuing series!

Spring 2022 End of Season Rankings

Spring 2022 was a great season for anime. There were several series that I wanted to pick up, but didn’t have time to follow weekly, which I’m determined to go back and give a chance. I’m already half way through Estab-Life: Great Escape at the moment, and it could have given the top half of my list a run for their money!

No late additions here though, this list features the same 10 as in my mid-season post~

Spring 2022 Mid-Season Rankings

It’s only Spring, and I’ve already given up my plans to limit myself to 8 new anime per season this year. 😛 Though I only went for one extra, dropping a lot of promising titles… at least half of which probably turned out better than #10 in my lineup. Ah well, I’ve committed now!

Spring 2021 End of Season Rankings

We’re only a few days into the Summer anime season, and I’m already missing the Spring – the new lineup looks so small and mediocre in comparison, with a couple of exceptions. Check back in mid August to see if I still feel that way six weeks in! 😛

For now though, time to look back at what I just finished~ The lineup is the same as for my mid-season rankings, minus the three that are still ongoing (Tokyo Revengers, My Hero Academia, and To Your Eternity).

Spring 2021 Mid-Season Rankings

Spring 2021 has been a fantastic season for anime! Quite short on sequels too, meaning that I was able to load up on more all-new series than normal. 😀 Here’s what I’m watching, and what I think about them:
