Tatsuki Fujimoto's "Before Chainsaw Man" anthology manga 17-21 and 22-26 get anime adaptation this November!

Anime fans (specifically on YouTube) are unhappy with the new 15-second commercial of the third season of One Punch Man. They mostly pointed out all the cuts that only showed moving lips. I do feel sorry for the fans though as Madhouse decided to drop this anime last season, while Frieren is cooking in just 2,5 years.....

Here is a new sequel trailer of one of the most degenerate ecchi series of this century, and they are ready to compete with Frieren on January: Chained Soldier!

Tbf, I can be nitpicky when selecting ecchi content. There is one that is getting positive reception this season, called Nukitashi: The Animation, and I chose not to watch it (for now).

No, YOU’RE crying after watching the latest episode of “Dr Stone”. If you gave up on it a few years ago, the last few episodes have really cranked things up.

Loving Gigguk's personal journey interpreted into an Isekai-themed short movie:

Also, just finished 18 of 40 anime I decided to watch this season.

Silent Witch (not Bocchi the Rock 2.0) my biggest surprise, while I don't really get the hype of The Fragrant Flower Blooms With Dignity anime (the up-and-coming voice actors for both MCs delivered it though!).

Massive goosebumps.

New Umamusume: Cinderella Gray trailer featuring more cuts from Moon Madness, Bonecrushers, Tony Bin, My Big Boy, and Pay the Butler!

10-FEET (The First Slam Dunk) provided the opening theme.

We are in an era where an isekai anime is about a nail artist... HYPE!

I genuinely wonder when I will get tired of this subgenre of fantasy, or when isekai will run out of ideas.

The most popular isekai at the moment is about someone who is reincarnated as a vending machine. That uma bolted long ago.

Judging from the score on MAL, apparently studio Madhouse fell off once again after being the GOAT for adapting Frieren, Orb, and Trillion Game (by the Dr. Stone author; haven't watched though). Wandance certainly struggles with 3D-CGI; a hardcore Overlord content creator was disappointed with its new spin-off movie; and I wasn't sure what happened to Dinner Table Detective (didn't watch this, too).

Hopefully it won't affect their next three anime, which are all promising: Frieren S2, Liar Game, and One Hundred Views of Awajima

The situation with OPM keeps getting even worse — JC Staff's Shinpei Nagai, the director airing for S3, has deleted his X (Twitter) account after facing backlash from both Japanese and overseas fans.

To be fair, the criticism should've been directed more toward Bandai, the licensor for not investing seriously in the franchise.

While I disagree with the idea where "Anime X doesn't deserve better production than Anime Y," it actually is disappointing that Bandai (through the sub-division Sunrise) manages to give a random, obscure isekai title (My Status as an Asssassin...) far better production quality.

After 7 years, Kyoto Animation finally reveals the first teaser of their upcoming drama anime Sparks of Tomorrow (Nijusseiki Denki Mokuroku: Eureka Evrika or 20th Century Electricity Catalog);

New Oshi no Ko Season 3 trailer is here, featuring the ending theme by natori;

Visual novel Needy Streamer Overload is getting an anime adaptation in April 2026!

This brings back the memories when I watched the Holo-ID/EN girls playing it...

Toei Animation has announced the passing of one of their most notable directors Tatsuya Nagamine, recently popular for directing Luffy's Gear 5 episode (Ep 1071). He died last summer aged 53.

RIP 🙏

New trailer for the 4th season of Re:ZERO is here!

Witch Hat Atelier, airing in Spring 2026, has uploaded their second trailer:

IT'S JUST A TRAILER AND I'M CRYING?! The MC's voice actress (Rena Motomura) isn't a popular/established seiyuu, but she nailed that scream so well!

Anyway, Spring 2026 will be an insane season for fantasy anime should either Black Clover or Bleach (or maybe both!) be airing, too:

Daemons of the Shadow Realm (from the creator of Fullmetal Alchemist!)

Re:Zero

Classroom of the Elite

Wistoria

Iruma-kun

Isekai Bookworm

Rooster Fighter

Here is the 2nd trailer for the forthcoming long-awaited but low-expectation Frieren Season 2;

Tanya is ready to challenge her God again as one of the most anticipated unorthodox isekai series Youjo Senki (Saga of Tanya the Evil) finally uploads a teaser for their 2nd season next year.

Kaguya-sama: Love is War - The Stairs to Adulthood has been announced!

Kaguya-sama TV Special is coming on New Year's Eve!

My Hero Academia officially ended yesterday, signalling the end of an era of another big Weekly Shonen Jump title. Hence, congratulations to Horikoshi-sensei for this achievement.

Kinda shame, but like AOT, I never followed the series as I wasn't really interested in battle shounen outside of Naruto/Boruto and Demon Slayer until last year. I'll definitely give them a proper look in the future, tho. Either way, their Peggies song still slaps (even if it came from what’s apparently the most hated season);

Then again, this is coming from a boy who's currently obsessed with catching up on 400+ Bleach episodes and 170 Black Clover episodes. Gotta make sure I'm there for the TYBW Finale next year! Loving this iconic tune anyway;

Also patiently waiting for Boruto to upset the entire shounen community once again, as well as the first teaser of Kagurabachi, the manga that went viral for 'already outpeaking' every battle shounen.
