I want to apologize in advance yet again but this maybe one of the shortest (and possibly most half-assed but really gonna try not to) new anime impressions blog that I have done in a very, very long time. Just hate to say due to personal stress and issues I want to get through these first thoughts on the new anime airing this Fall as quickly as possible, so don’t expect too much details and just writing mainly about my initial thoughts on what I’ve watched. Also once again all new and continuing shows will be grouped together and will barely mention anything about the series story and characters so you would have to look into any info on that elsewhere. Let’s freakin’ go!



— Genso Suikoden - “Suikoden: The Anime” —

[World Premiere] Streaming on YouTube through the official English channel.

Just to confirm this is NOT based on an any original story nor is based on the very first game of the series but on the second entry titled “The Dunan Unification Wars” which is, IMO, one of the most beloved and sought after JRPGs of the original PlayStation era, and one that isn’t from the “Final Fantasy” series, and thanks to Konami we got a HD remaster of the first two entries early last year for all current game consoles and Windows PCs! (I personally got the physical release on the Nintendo Switch) This anime is also the very first work I’ve seen done by “Konami Animation” which is the company’s own anime studio that started making web shorts for their “Yu-Gi-Oh!” card games in 2024. Their work on it within the first three episodes, with the first being a double-sized one, fairly seemed quite average with barely anything that really stood out in terms of animation and qualities yet seemed to quite follow the game’s story pretty closely within it’s early moments. Actually I was rather quite surprised to see this one very early yet brutally violent and depressing scene play out in anime form and they even made it more gorier than what the game showed! Technically this is more or less a PG13 series but watching that scene definitely raised my eyebrows. However somewhat earlier than that a certain scene with a couple entertainer ladies was changed to where one of them casts a magic sleep spell on a couple military guards while in the game I remember the two girls kind of swooned the guards aside to do some “dirty work”, if you know what I mean. I have not personally finished the game’s story all the way through (done around 8 hours of the HD remake so far) and I know the anime will be changing some story aspects of it here and there but at this point it’s still not clear if this adaption will be just as good as getting through the actual game. Honestly I hate to make gambles but deep down I’m personally willing to see how this fantasy epic will be played out, although with a total of 23 episodes planned to air I may consider putting it on hold at the end of the year, then attempt to play through the game to it’s final end and then after that see how the second half of the anime will be handled (that is if it’s still streaming on YouTube by then). Older game fans may highly dig it for it’s hefty nostalgic aspects but for newcomers I more or less believe playing the HD remaster is the better option, however there is one anime aspect everyone can agree on, that ending theme sucks! Definitely liking the opening tune by Amazarashi but what were they thinking on choosing that song!? :p (maybe is slightly better than in “Steel Ball Run” but still…)


— Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita II - “Reincarnated as a Sword II” —

Streaming on HIDIVE

After nearly four years we finally get to continue more fantastical adventures of our little cat-girl, Guts-like, warrior Fran and the other-worldly magic sword “teacher” that is unfortunately stuck within the giant weapon he is bonded to. Studio C2C and director Shinji Ishihira are back with more isekai badassery and gotta say the studio is really flexing their animation muscles with this second season, especially for the dungeon boss battles showcased during episode three and four. These are the same people that gave us “Shangri-la Frontier” after all and really goes to show how definitely much they have improved since S1 of “Sword” which honestly was a fairly average in terms of presentation. I’m going to proudly admit, the story is hella dumb, but it’s just one of those anime that does not need much thought to enjoy and, bottom line, leaves a smile on my face while watching it. Also we got a pretty damn rockin’ new opening theme from J-rock band “FZMZ”, they did a couple songs for “Shangri-la Frontier” (and why does their singer sound familiar), and the “kawaii-metal” band “Hanabie” performs the season’s ending theme, it’s not as good as the tune they did for “Young Ladies Don’t Play Fighting Games” but still pretty fun to listen to. S2 is only set to air 12 episodes, I’m already locked into watching the rest of it and very sure it’s past fans have already done so.


— Kusuriya no Hotorigoto - “The Apothecary Diaries” Season Three, Part One —

Streaming on Crunchyroll

Unlike the last two past seasons, studio OLM is this time splitting season three into two cours with the first half airing until the end of the year and then it’s second half set to air sometime within April. Yet on the flip-side Japan will be getting a theatrical side-story movie in mid December (a U.S. release is planned for sometime in 2027) and then both Japan and world-wide will be getting a mystery solving video game based on the series for both PlayStation 5, Switch 2 and Windows PCs in March of 2027! So we will (potentially) be getting quite a damn lot of “MaoMao” within these next nine months! As far as S3 is going we are introduced to this mysterious peddler giving away these “sweet bars” (“the spice must flow!”) as food to the very poor but it seems to being causing a lot more harm to their bodies than good, not only that but much of China’s farm crops are getting ravaged by locusts swarms! The animation and qualities of this season seems to be much on par with what I’ve seen in S2, honestly I thought the cases and situations within S2 were fairly weak and mostly uninteresting but the writers definitely seem to be making these new S3 scenarios much more entertaining, they even slightly bumped up MaoMao’s dumb, cat-like antics. We have an amazingly executed new opening theme which is sung by the extremely talented music duo “Yorushika” (also did the 1st OP of “Lair Game” which is currently in the running for best song of the year), the ending theme isn’t as done as good but the new song by singer “Eve” makes up for it. I’ll proudly admit, this series will not be for everyone due to it’s much slower pacing yet thought provoking elements and technically is more for the female watchers than the males, yet after two seasons I’m still a fan of it’s story and characters, especially MaoMao, and deep down this new season as well as the other upcoming releases are strictly for it’s long-running fans and hoping everything will be living up to it’s fairly strong beginnings.


— Black Clover Season Two —

Streaming on Crunchyroll

Five years, man! I know Studio Pierrot has been quite busy working on the final manga story adaption for “Bleach” but now that’s over our badass magical fans can finally get back to finishing more of this fantasy epic! Also I’m not sure how long the studio has been preparing for this series comeback but holy hell they are absolutely pushing their animators to the utter limits on this one and everything done within the first four episodes of S2 has just been freaking glorious! Plus, have you seen the new opening theme animation!? GOD DAMN!!! And that rock tune by Wanima makes it’s so freaking perfect to the very last details! That ending theme on the other hand….. ‘meh (really not into male sung j-poppy stuff). Sadly I’m going straight into this without any recap knowledge of the story’s past arcs and going into S2 is literally like getting thrown straight into the blazing fires with it’s plot and I was just going “huh!?”….. “huh!?” whenever some wacko story element comes showing it’s face in a new episode so if you are not well learned in Black Clover lore when you start this then you are gonna be pretty lost. It’s right now unknown how many episodes will be planned for S2 although I believe the anime has roughly 12 or 13 manga volumes to adapt with #38 being it’s final one that ended in May of this year yet I would very not be surprised to see these last acts be split-up just as the final arcs of Bleach were done. Now excuse me while I do some rather light story recap reading before heading back into the series.


— Tougen Anki: Nikkou Kegon no Taki Hen - “Tougen Anki: Nikko Kegon Falls Arc” —

Streaming on Crunchyroll

At least the wait for more of this violent, bloody magic series wasn’t all too long as S1 just finished at the end of last year. Watching much of S1 was pretty rough with it’s really shoddy CG work and just really dumb and weird story and plot elements (and still, why are the girl’s boobs in this so freakin’ huge!?) yet somehow, someway I did manage myself to get through all 24 episodes last year and even gave it (barely) a 7 out of 10 rating (tho I’ll admit, some of those blood skills were pretty badass to watch). As far as the start of S2 seems the animation teams at studio Hibari have upped their game and is giving us some better quality work without much of the earlier CG jank and showcasing some impressive effects as well as some very decent artwork. The overall quality did dip down when the story introduced the new lone squad of “oni” which was mainly used for plot thickening but I believe it has potential to get much better as the show progresses. The new opening is also a pretty awesome showcase of bloody badassery with it’s rock tune “Backlash” by artist Kitayama Hiromitsu whom has not done any anime work prior but is making a decent first impression, the ending is…. well…. not as weird as the last “dancing” one and is again the exact opposite of the opening but did like the shot of the cute plushies of the main cast shown at the end. It’s still unknown on how many episodes are planned for S2, I’m going to assume it will be at the same length as S1 but only time will tell but I have a big hunch much more bloody awesome events are yet to come and crossing my fingers this season is going to be much more remember-able than the last.


— PSYREN —

[World Premiere] Streaming on Crunchyroll

Once again anime companies are digging deep into manga history for any more potential shows to adapt for screens and actually this one has been fan requested for a very, very long while. Studio Satelight, the people behind the “Aquarian” and much of the more recent “Macross” series, has taken charge on the production based on the now nearly 20-year-old manga but the biggest question is will it still be enjoyable for anime watchers in 2026? After checking into the first four episodes it definitely seems like some random shounen anime that I would potentially watch within either in 2008 or 09 although they did make some modern-day changes such as of course having everyone now have I-Phones and making old pay-phones seem like a very obsolete technological relic (but I believe some are still in use in Japan, did you watch the Chainsaw Man movie?) Also I think it’s pretty wild that even though this is based on a manga that started back in 2007 it features some elements that are becoming more popular within pulp-culture, like it has almost a “Backrooms” element to it where the “players” are mysteriously sucked into an alternate reality dimension of Japan and they are all being hunted and stalked by strange, highly dangerous and unrecognizable creatures. Much like with the “Suikoden” anime mentioned earlier the overall quality and animation of the series seemed quite average with barely anything that really stood out, I also thought the story and main situations within the first two episodes seemed highly dull, however once the M.C’s start to learn about their newly gained psychic capabilities it kind of flipped the switch for me to give this a decent chance, also seeing Matsuri is kind of hot. :) One of my favorite manga series of all time is “Gantz” and while this series is nowhere near as bloody violent as that it done seem to give out the same vibes of that sci-fi series and I think will turn out to be a pretty enjoyable story as it more progresses, and hell, I was the exact same way as with the long-awaited anime adaption of “Liar Game”. A bummer it’s opening and ending themes aren’t really all too remember-able yet the song from the band “CLAN QUEEN” has a nice rock beat to it. While the overall style of the series may not too impress much of it’s viewers I really believe all shounen action watchers should give this series at least a chance, the anime doesn’t have a set amount of episodes planned however the manga series did release a total of 16 volumes but I would not be shocked if this “season” will only be set for 12 or 13 to air.


— Romelia Senki - “Romelia War Chronicle” —

[World Premiere] Streaming on Crunchyroll

This is based on an ongoing fantasy novel series that started back in 2019 which did get an 8 volume light novel adaption as well as an ongoing manga adaption. The full print title of the series includes the subtitle: “The Count’s Daughter Rallies an Army in the Wake of Mankind’s Victory” and that’s pretty much the jist of the story where this noblewoman wants to command an entire army and just literally wipe out all of the remnants of the now slain demon lord and his “minions”. It’s kind of like “The Saga of Tanya the Evil” but it’s not an “isekai” and the main female M.C. is definitely a “girl-boss” but with a much more compassionate demeanor. This is being done by a studio that I’ve personally never heard of, “Atra”, and when I attempted to look up their info this is their only main animation work they are doing but also had assisted on the series “Heroine? Saint? No, I’m an All-Works Maid!” that just aired 12 episodes last season as well as on the movie “Kusunoki no Bannin” (don’t know it’s English title as of writing), even both it’s director and writer are very new to the anime business. After watching the first four episodes it’s overall qualities did seem to dip up and down at points, sometimes it would look pretty decent with nice animations while other times would just look downright dull and half-assed. Also did we really need to see that bro-tastic shower scene? (it’s a PG13 rated series but still….) However it’s overall story is the anime’s greater highlight and is even giving me some “Berserk” vibes from it, sure there’s no one at the same levels as “Guts” and “Griffith” but does go to show how brutal medieval war can be as well as seeing it’s dire consequences and really love to see what this squad will deal with later on (especially with those giant lizard-men). The opening theme is pretty rockin’ too with a new song done by singer Chougakusei and it’s ending theme having some nicely sung lyrics which was composed by Kohta Yamamoto (the “kouhai” of Sawano). I don’t think this one is for the “isekai” junkie crowd but if you are willing to check into a more “smarter” fantasy series then I’d say this is maybe well worth your time, that is hoping it’s animation budget doesn’t go down the shit-hole, and the first season is set to air total of 24 episodes with the first half this Fall and the second half next Spring.


— Magic Knight Rayearth (2026) —

[A new revision of the classic fantasy anime from 1994!] Streaming on Crunchyroll

Ever seen the extremely memey video where that older (assuming) African bald guy says “OH MY GOD!! WOW!!!!” in a very high pitched voice. I swear that was literally me after finishing EVERY SINGLE EPISODE so far of this glorious remake, and freakin’ bravo to the art and animation teams over at studio “E&H Production” in bringing this classic “Clamp” manga series into a great new life! (and still can’t believe they also did that dismal “Ninja Kamui”) To remind you again I have personally never watched any of the mid 90’s anime, although I did previously read up on some of the main story, but going to highly assume this new version is much more based on the original manga and also seems they brought it’s overall visual style to one that is very similar to another popular shoujo series remake: “Sailor Moon Crystal”. While I thought the original manga style of SMC didn’t really make it all too palatable to the much older fans of the 90’s anime (that was until they started to adapt “Sailor Moon S” and it’s respected manga arcs) the way E&H is handling with the new MKR I think definitely fits well and doesn’t seem all to different than what the older anime did, sure you can pinpoint some changes but I didn’t mind any of them one bit. At least the remake’s writers did not change any aspects of the original’s story still all taking place within in the year 1993 when Tokyo Tower was one of the most popular tourist attractions of the entire metropolis and not the more recent “Sky Tree”. Although will say it’s older opening was a bit more remember-able and better animated but what they did for the new one seemed to mostly match it along with a new song done by female artist “Toaka”, best known for her work on the anime movie “Suzume”, also their work on the new ending theme is a very decent highlight too and highly loving it’s colorful visuals along with the new song from Yurina Kawaguchi. Unfortunately the new anime also uses some CG animation, mostly for shots featuring the giant magic mecha of the series, at least it didn’t look all too half-assed or clunky looking but still highly curious on how the later armor battles are going to be presented. After watching the first four episodes I think this whole experience is just one giant nostalgia trip and definitely is making my old school anime fandom feelings get a freaking huge happy jolt. There are no set amount of episodes planned for the new series at this time, the older 90’s anime did get a whopping 49 TV episodes yet the original manga series only lasted a total of 6 printed volumes, I’m very positive this remake will be taking it’s original manga story to a “T” but cramming in all of that material within only 12 or 13 episodes would be very daunting task with some compromises and just praying this new adaption greatly live up to the classic original. Bottom line, for anime watchers both old and new, you just have to check out this classic series reboot A.S.A.P. and it immediately gets my “must watch” stamp for the season.


— Tempal: Item no Chikara - “Overgeared” —

[World Premiere] Streaming on Crunchyroll

Our big Korean gochujang flavored anime of the Fall season yet unlike with “Tomb Raider King” last Summer this one is yet another Japanese animated production, however it’s being done by studio J.C. Staff and if you recall they were the ones that royally half-assed the entire 1st half of “One Punch Man” season three! (even crowned it with my “Golden Shit Emoji” award for the very worst of 2025) Well, I got somewhat good news, the anime producers are behind some of the most popular fantasy light novel anime adaptions of all time, including “Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation”, “Danmachi” and even all of “Sword Art Online”, over at “Egg Firm” and assuming they didn’t want any of that utterly dismal and extremely half-assed animation work and made sure the studio was definitely whipped into shape to create this anticipated webtoon adaption. After watching the first four episodes I still don’t believe this anime is really up to the same levels as with the “Solo Leveling” series but it could have potential to get into much more serious and action-packed situations and I know the studio has potential to do so. Yet the overall story so far isn’t really all too remember-able and is setup more as a RPG game comedy than some power-hungry online fantasy tale, although it does remind me of the beginnings of “Shangri-la Frontier” where it was not greatly serious at first but then later on it got into much more dire and demanding scenarios which also greatly bumped up the animation qualities. Also both it’s opening and ending themes aren’t really all too remarkable and rather just skip them with every episode. Only 12 episodes are planned for the entire first season, honestly it could be a well worth watchable anime to those that are big fans of “Solo” but for me to stick with it all depends on how the story progresses down the road, I was the same way with watching “Shangri-la” and definitely did greatly improve from it’s so—so start but it’s all just a “wait-and-see” game again, yet maybe for most anime watchers you’re just better off binging all of the planned 12 eps within a couple days.


— Hotaru no Yomeiri - “Firefly Wedding” —

[World Premiere] Streaming on Crunchyroll

Based on the historical Japanese romance manga series by author and artist Oreco Tachibana (and first major work), at first I thought this was going to be about some sappy, emotional love story taking place just before the 1900’s but after I saw the early trailers and then looked into its original manga I highly believed this one is going to be much more interesting to watch as well as being a rather fairly violent one. Also a big plus for me was this adaption is being handled by studio David Productions, after watching their impressively done finale of the series “Fire Force”, whom ironically were also heavily working on the highly anticipated adaption of “Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run” so how would they be handling this visually stunning series? After checking out the first four episodes the studio’s work on it has been pretty top-notch and I believe it’s already one of the most beautifully done anime of the entire Fall season! Even both the opening and ending themes are matching the show’s same amazing visual looks and with both having very remember-able songs to go with them, but if I were to choose one it would be the opening done which is “Period” done by artist “Iri”. I will state the main story does much more seem to cater toward female watchers yet just like with “Apothecary Diaries” the more I got to know about the characters as well as it’s situations the better I liked watching them and this is heavily looking like a “sleeper hit” of the Fall season. Also I like how the two M.Cs. kind of remind me of Gojo and Marin from “My Dress-up Darling” although assassin Goto here has a way different attitude and demeanor than the shy and timid Gojo. Currently the anime has no set episode count as of yet, the original manga released a total of 13 volumes and one side-story so I’d expect it’s first season only going over the first 5 or 6 volumes of the series and then it’s producers (and watchers) will have to decide if more seasons will be made (I honestly hope the entire series does get all adapted). Overall if you are looking for an anime that is just outside the usual norm that you typically watch then I greatly advise you to give this series a decent shot and personally gets stamped a “much watch” for the season.


— Shuiro no Kamen - “The Vermilion Mask” —

[World Premiere] Streaming on Crunchyroll

It’s been over 10 years since Studio Madhouse has technically “ended” their work on the more recent “Hunter x Hunter” anime and with no plans to continue it as of today while it’s original manga series very, very, very slowly releases more of the story. Then within 2021 the author that only goes by “Dr. Poro”, along with artist Nabana Naba (is that really a name?), releases the first chapter of this series and after watching the first four episodes it’s definitely stating this really wants all current HxH fans their full attention onto this one and that series vibes are immense! Also it’s pretty wild the manga is being published by “Young King OURs” whom it’s works don’t get much anime adaptions yet it has been the manga home to both series “Trigun” and “Hellsing” (and are we ever going to get more anime of “Arpeggio of Blue Steel”? Just saying). Now here’s the bad news: this is being done by “100studio” whom literally just finished airing their work on “Black Torch” which really was not an all too great anime to watch from last summer, some of it was very decently done yet some of it was pretty lack-luster and kind of half-assed, even personally I thought they could of gave the series much more potential than it originally did. Sadly in Vermillion it’s the same way with some scenes that looked fairly well animated yet others that just looked like a freakin’ eye sore (like with those awful dragon scenes, come on man…). Yet on the positive flip-side the overall story, it’s wild characters and their various “mask powers” way much more make up for it’s visual weaknesses, sure it kind of seems like more or less a total knock-off of “Majora’s Mask” from the “Zelda” games but it all just feels like I’m watching a brand new side adventure within the world of HxH and with pretty remember-able characters to boot, like the wild boy teen that has to constantly smoke something every hour. Then we got a brand new track from the man-wolf rockers “MAN WITH A MISSION” with their tune “Firestarter” and I swear this is turning out to be one of the best songs that they have ever done within their over 15 year history, the visuals of the OP are mostly OK but that song is freaking fire! Also the ending theme is pretty rockin’ too with the song “Koe” by Yutori although visually is pretty meh’. There are no set number of anime episodes to air as of yet, the manga series currently has nine print volumes released and is still ongoing. Personally I am really damn hoping for this studio’s next work to be way more stronger and remember-able than the last and I believe they picked a really great and fun to watch adventure story to adapt, yet again it’s all pretty much a “wait-and-see” game (or maybe we are all better off just reading the manga).


— Toaru Anbu no Item - “A Certain Dark Item” —

[A new spin-off series from the world of “A Certain Magical Index” and “A Certain Scientific Railgun”] Streaming on Crunchyroll

Yeah, you heard that right, this anime is a spin-off of a spin-off! I just personally call it the “Index-verse” and like those two mentioned anime this is as well being done by studio J.C. Staff whom are definitely strutting their animation strengths in 2026. Now the next important question is do you have to watch any of the past series anime to get into this? That’s not an easy one but if I were to answer that I’d say yes but not all previous ones, at least watch “Index” S1 and then, sadly, all three past seasons of “Railgun” which I believe the “ITEM” group were actually introduced within S2 and I know they were shown in S3 but you really need to watch S1 to get into those. It’s literally almost just as convoluted as watching into the entire “Marvel Cinematic Universe” and I’m sure we are going to have some ultimate mash-up series that will need knowledge of EVERYTHING these insane authors have created! Getting back to the new anime studio J.C. are absolutely pulling off a visual explosion of awesome to this series and with a surprising fun story that follows more or less the equivalent of a “suicide squad” made up of delinquent yet powerful “esper users” that are only tasked to take on some of Academy City’s most dangerous cases. Actually I love Shizuri and her freaking “Death Star” laser beams that she flings out! Also I hate to brag on Crunchyroll but they made Saiai always say “ultra” within every sentence (I forgot the actual Japanese word she uses) but would of been more suited to say either “hella” or “freaking” (or better yet, if allowed, “f**king”, but this is a PG-13 series, sadly). Both opening and theme songs are also a great highlight with “Ghost Sequence” by the all girl J-rock band “East of Eden” (I’ve seen them on “J-Melo” from NHK World one time and they were amazing!) as well as “Meltdowner” from “Kishida Kyodan & The Akeboshi Rockets” which they have been around for quite a while but their new song just freakin’ slaps, man. Now personally I more or less kind of dumped on the whole “Index-verse” after watching the highly confusing and just damn weird S3 of “Index”, also that spin-off “Accelerator” series was hella dumb too, but just thought I would take one very last final chance with “Item” and after seeing the great visual work and story writing they are doing is more sparking me back into the series once again! I just know (but not confirmed) this will only be running for 12 or 13 episodes but greatly crossing my fingers this is going to be a good one and fully stamped down to watch the rest of this season’s episodes. And did you know we are getting S4 of “Railgun”!? I have a big hunch this one is more or less going to act as the “prequel” to that, yet, bottom line, this series is only made for the “Index-verse” die-hards and is not very newbie welcome so you have been warned!



*** Usually at this point I would write off which anime have been dumped for the season and technically there weren’t any, however, I did unfortunately decided to not follow “Dark Machine: The Animation” because instead I did finally get hold of all 10 episodes of the new “Ghost in the Shell” anime series done by Science Saru and going to watch all of that in it’s place. Ok, I actually did watch just the first two episodes of “Dark Machine” only to get a sample, it seemed mostly fine visually and the CG work on it was actually pretty decent and this is coming from the same teams that did “Dead Dead Dededede Destruction” (or something like that), yet the story didn’t make much sense to me and the rules of the online mecha game it’s hovered around didn’t seem all that interesting, yet it could be a pretty enjoyable series if you binge watch all of the Fall season’s episodes which I may do, or not, who knows. Speaking of anime binging, I also got all 13 episodes of Kyoto Animation’s newest series “Sparks of Tomorrow” which streamed on Netflix last summer and will desperately attempt to watch all of that before the end of the year. Another previous summer anime I’m finally checking out is “I Want to Love You ’till Your Dying Day” which all 13 episodes are now streaming on Crunchyroll, this one was actually recommended by an anime watcher I follow via “X” (Twitter) and originally I thought this was yet another cute school girls doing cute things series but found out it’s about a school entirely of magically trained assassins that are forced to engage in deadly battles with other schools and mage factions. I’ve already watched the first six episodes and it’s a extremely dramatic and sad series as well as a very well animated one, it could very well be within the top 20 anime of 2026, it’s that good. Lastly I plan to finally watch “Cosmic Princess Kaguya!” from Netflix (and that streamed back in Jan. of ’26, good lord!) but sadly I am not planning to watch “Chainsmoker Cat”, I freaking love both the opening and ending themes for it but I think I can live without watching it. Now what about “Cyberpunk Edgerunners 2” and “Fool Night”? I am heavily crossing my fingers I will get both and watch them all before the end of 2026 but I cannot fully guarantee I will due to my unpredictable life situations (seriously, it was too lucky I was able to get the new GITS and “Sparks”) but just gotta damn hope for the best. Peace out otakus and will talk to you again for my personal anime best lists of 2026 this coming winter! (Also I got just one more video game blog post that should be done sometime in Nov.)
