Literally nothing interesting this year except Gundam Gquuuuuux. It's all rubbish. Look at this season - literally nothing looks interesting whatsoever. Then go back to 2005 and see how many amazing shows are in that year. I don't think anime fell off in the 2000s, it fell off after the pandemic. Nothing good is coming out now and if it is good it will be barely watched and with 0 budget.

Then go back to 1995 and see how many amazing shows are in that year. I don't think anime fell off in the 90s, it fell off after the turn of the new century. Nothing good is coming out now and if it is good it will be barely watched and with 0 budget.

"Nothing" is a stretch but I can see what you mean. And the folks spamming "no look, this season/year has JJK, SxF, Dandadan, Solo Leveling, Apothecary Diaries etc" assuming that they ARE amazing still those are sequels so you can't really claim those are this year's.

@WaterMage That's a good analogy of Solo leveling. It's definitely junk food anime. It's purely hype, get stronger, number go up but it has no true character substance for anyone who isn't the main character. The main character has bare minimum character progression despite that. Don't want to hijack the topic but your analogy was good: It's like McDonalds just for that one day you crave it.

I don't know what you saw in Gundam Gquuuuuux D:
Maybe you're saying that there isn't much mecha anime lately?

There are some very good anime nowadays, some ok, a lot of generic and some bad like always. If you don't like anything, just stop watching anime.

@KimgeaR Besides the Evangelion creator being involved and some "what if" alternate timeline dives with the original Gundam story, not much as of yet. The mecha designs for the show can range from good to hideous, and the character designs clash with the original 1 Year War characters like Char.

I don't blame OP; Solo Leveling is the most popular anime this season, which of course would make him a doomer.

Also, 2002-2003 and 2006-2009 are the better years for anime from that decade btw.

I've always found that the start of the year usually has some pretty mediocre entries but always picks up by summer or fall. That said this season isnt that bad,

Sakamoto Days, Solo Leveling, Apothecary Diaries and Dr Stone are four easy lineups that most people probably will enjoy. Then theres whatever isekai/romance anime that will be popular this season and some one off stuff lik the Rose of Versailles movie or potentially the new Mononoke Movie so I think theres enough for the start of the year.
