Chinese anime dominates this season. Ling Long 2nd Season is a long awaited sequel. Yujin Xingzhe is a very promissing survival adventure in an unusual world, and I'd put even that over the only honorary Japanese masterpiece of the season - Kowloon Generic Romance .

2. Lazarus ラザロ [MAPPA] (Finished 3/13)
Tags: Adult Cast Action, Suspense
The year is 2052—an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity prevails across the globe. The reason for this: mankind has been freed from sickness and pain. Nobel Prize winning neuroscientist Dr. Skinner has developed a miracle cure-all drug with no apparent drawbacks called Hapuna. Hapuna soon becomes ubiquitous... and essential. However, soon after Hapuna is officially introduced, Dr. Skinner vanishes.
Three years later, the world has moved on. But Dr. Skinner has returned—this time, as a harbinger of doom. Skinner announces that Hapuna has a short half-life. Everyone who has taken it will die approximately three years later. Death is coming for this sinful world—and coming soon.
As a response to this threat, a special task force of five agents is gathered from across the world to save humanity from Skinner’s plan. This group is called "Lazarus." Can they find Skinner and develop a vaccine before time runs out?
Concept of superprofessionals detective action mystery is seriously flawed, so only characters might save it. They did not.

Tags: Shounen Urban Fantasy Comedy, Fantasy
Nico Wakatsuki has finished her six years of witch training and is moving back to town by herself. As a new witch, she must choose a familiar to accompany her. However, unlike the other witches, she wishes to pick a non-animal familiar. There's no better companion than Morihito "Moi" Otogi—her childhood friend who happens to be an ogre. Morihito is vehemently opposed to being her servant, but he reluctantly accepts his fate after learning that a curse would revert him into a strange cow-tiger hybrid were he to disobey a witch's order.
Due to Morihito's father leaving for a business trip and Nico's mother remaining behind in the Witches' Holy Land, the two teens find themselves living together under the same roof. While Nico is ecstatic to be living with her crush, Morihito finds that her magical antics and overall clumsiness create more problems than solutions. With a prophesied disaster to befall Nico within the year, Morihito must do everything he can to protect her as her bodyguard while also upholding his duties as her familiar.
Another nonsense that is supposed to be cute. For the thousandth time - stupidity is not cute.

Surrounded by a loving family and companions, Arthur starts to experience joys in this new life that he never knew in his previous one. However, during a journey, his family is attacked by bandits...
Thus begins his second life, filled with love and adventure!
Above average magician reincarnation anime, but we've seen enough of these, and there's still no clear goal seen ahead, so can't recommend it at this point.

Tags: Shounen Super Power Action
Living in a superhuman society, it is hard to feel special. Even more so when the spotlight only shines on professional heroes, those legally authorized to use their special powers known as Quirks in public for the greater good.
Kouichi Haimawari grew up aspiring to be a hero, but with a mediocre Quirk like "sliding" that ties him to the ground, he soon came to the conclusion that he could only ever admire them from below. Despite this, Kouichi finds contentment in using his Quirk to carry out day-to-day good deeds, such as returning lost items and helping the elderly cross the street.
However, Kouichi's tame life takes a swing into the turbulent when he is rescued from a back alley brawl by Vigilante, or illegal hero, Knuckleduster. Seeing hero potential in Kouichi, Knuckleduster enlists his help in tracking down the source of a dangerous drug known as Trigger that boosts the user's Quirk at the expense of their rationality.
Set in a time before the events of the original story, Vigilante: Boku no Hero Academia Illegals follows Kouichi as he chooses to don the reputation of a villain and become a Vigilante, operating in the shadow of the law to prevent crimes from taking to the surface.
Sequel.

7. Kowloon Generic Romance 九龍ジェネリックロマンス [Arvo Animation] (Finished 13/13)
Tags: Seinen Adult Cast, Workplace Romance, Sci-Fi
With its flickering streetlights, moldy back alleys, and noisy populace, the Second Kowloon Walled City, despite the squalor of its already-demolished predecessor, evokes a special kind of nostalgia that its residents find endearing. Amidst the walls of this fading yet beloved landscape lives Reiko Kujirai, a 32-year-old realtor deeply in love with her coworker, Hajime Kudou, who is two years her junior. Though they have their differences, the two get along well enough to experience the joys of the walled city together.
However, everything starts to fall apart when Kudou, half-asleep, suddenly kisses Kujirai—seemingly reciprocating the feelings she has yet to confess. But when Kudou explains that he had mistaken her for someone else, Kujirai finds herself drawn into a series of events that lead her to a past she cannot remember.
I'm used to the fact that if something clearly says something in the title, it has to be the opposite way in the work. FL image is clearly stolen as I've seen it before at least couple times, still a cool image. The sci-fi element makes it really memorable and distinctive.

8. Katainaka no Ossan, Kensei ni Naru From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman 片田舎のおっさん、剣聖になる [Passione, Hayabusa Film] (Finished 12/12)
Tags: Action, Adventure, Fantasy
Beryl Gardinant, a self-proclaimed "humble old man," is a sword instructor at his dojo in a rural, backwater village. In his younger years, he dreamed of glory as a master swordsman, but those days are long behind him. Out of the blue, he receives a visit from a famous former pupil who brings him world-shattering news—he's been appointed as a special instructor for the knights of the Liberion Order! With his life now turned upside down, Beryl travels to the capital and reunites with some of his former students: elite knights, an ace wizard, and even an adventurer who's attained the highest guild rank possible. But why do they all want his tutelage?! As far as he's concerned, they clearly don't need him anymore. Can Beryl live up to his new position? And will he ever get a moment's peace away from his adoring students?!
The closest thing it has been for ten episodes is harem, and some minor development only happens in last episodes. That's nowhere near enough in story department for a masterpiece.

However, when Yuu reunites with his first crush, the gears of their relationship suddenly go out of sync! Will Himari be able to escape her "ideal friend" now that she has found love?
Basically, copycat of my dress-up darling, but without otaku tilt or as nice characters, so it really pales in comparison.

11. Haite Kudasai, Takamine-san Please Put Them On, Takamine-san 履いてください、鷹峰さん [LIDENFILMS] (Finished 2/12)
Tags: Shounen School Comedy, Romance, Ecchi
Takane Takamine is great at everything she does, and her magnetic personality makes her the envy of everyone. She gets good grades, excels at sports, and even manages to become student council president during her first year of high school. But Takamine has a secret—she possesses an ability called "Eternal Virgin Road," allowing her to redo past actions and achieve a different result.
While this might seem like a decent skill to have, Takamine must pay a price to activate it: she has to strip off a piece of her lingerie. After getting an imperfect score on a test, Takamine begins to remove her underwear during class and is spotted by her average and weak-willed classmate Koushi Shirota, who is bewildered by the sight. However, the very next instant, things reset and Takamine's test is now perfect.
When Shirota decides to confront Takamine about her previous test score, she reveals her ability to him and blackmails him into becoming her "closet," making him carry around extra lingerie and put them on her. Her goal is to be able to use Eternal Virgin Road as much as possible in order to stay at the top of the school hierarchy. Left with little choice in the matter, Shirota accepts, starting an oddly intimate type of relationship with the most popular girl at school.
As a teasing anime, it does its function, but overall it is absolutely not enough for a masterpiece.

12. Kijin Gentoushou Sword of the Demon Hunter: Kijin Gentosho 鬼人幻燈抄 [Yokohama Animation Laboratory] (Finished 3/?)
Tags: Historical Action, Adventure, Fantasy
After Jinta and Suzune ran away from their home as children, they were taken in by Motoharu—the virtuous sentinel of Kadono Village—and his daughter, Shirayuki. The settlement was ruled by its shrine maiden, Itsukihime, whom only a select few were allowed to interact with. When Itsukihime passed away, Shirayuki was appointed in her place. Wishing to stay in contact with her, Jinta worked diligently for years and was finally selected as the next sentinel.
As the protector of the village, Jinta's duty is to eliminate any threats. One day, he encounters a demon in a nearby forest. At the end of the battle, the demon makes a proclamation about the destined ruler of all demonkind. He attaches his severed arm to Jinta, turning him into an unaging demon man. By the time Jinta comes to, Kadono is on fire. Suzune has transformed into the demon from the divination, and due to a series of misunderstandings, she murders Shirayuki and flees.
Devastated, Jinta cannot forgive Suzune for her actions; he departs on a journey to find her. As Jinta travels around Japan across the eras, he endeavors to protect as many people as possible from aggressive demons. In his quiet moments, he contemplates what he should do when he once again faces his childhood friend.
Episodic detective action cases, something like samurai witcher. I just don't find any interest in here as I see no lingering big story.

Tags: Medical Fantasy
Life hasn't been kind to Zenos. He was born in the slums, and his dirt-poor background has denied him almost every opportunity. After an encounter with a healer, he throws himself into studying to become one and finally catches a break when an adventurer invites Zenos into his party. Zenos is thrilled—so thrilled, in fact, that he's willing to put up with his teammates treating him like garbage. They fail to appreciate his talents and ultimately kick him to the curb, claiming he's outlived his usefulness to them.
Now bereft of money and out of options, Zenos decides to put his self-taught skills to use elsewhere and opens an underground clinic. Word quickly spreads about the brilliant healer working incredible magic in the city's shadowy underbelly. Even the royal palace is taking notice...
Can Zenos buck the odds and carve out a life for himself in a world that's spit in his face? And can he save the lives of the patients who wind up on his doorstep in the process?
It's purely tertiary recycled material of Party kara Tsuihou sareta Sono Chiyushi, Jitsu wa Saikyou ni Tsuki and A-Rank Party wo Ridatsu shita Ore wa, Moto Oshiego-tachi to Meikyuu Shinbu wo Mezasu after OP protagonist gathers intial harem. By the 5th episode I got overwhelmed by my disgust over plagiatry, so can't even explore and find out if story develops in any good way.

The love between brother and sister. The love between man and woman. That which is most forbidden is most unyielding. The two sons and five daughters of the Shiunji family shine like brilliant gems, each with intelligence and beauty in equal measure. And with the pedigree of their wealthy father behind them, how could they not be the talk of the town? Eldest son Arata has spent his life being tossed around by the whims of his colorful sisters, yet a little teasing won't stop him from valuing his family over anything and anyone else. But when his youngest sister turns fifteen, their father reveals a long-hidden secret of the Shiunji "siblings" and knocks Arata's world off its axis...
Boring harem. Lack of individuality is pierced right from the start, so I consider even one episode of this trash to be enough.

Tags: Action, Adventure, Fantasy
Despite having no real combat talent, kind 15-year-old Kurt Rockhans belongs to the famous party Flaming Dragon Fang. He is perfectly satisfied as the party's helper—until the other members kick him out and replace him with a stronger ally. Left without a way to provide for himself, Kurt begins searching for a job.
With his job prospects limited by his lack of combat ability, Kurt gladly accepts any work that comes his way. During one such job, he meets Yulishia, an adventurer formerly employed by the royal family. Surprised by Kurt's impressive work, Yulishia discovers that he is no ordinary boy: Kurt possesses an astonishingly high aptitude in a variety of non-combat fields. Due to these talents, a court official tells Yulishia to offer Kurt a high status in the kingdom that would allow him to live in peace for the rest of his life.
When Yulishia informs Kurt about his potential rank, he brushes off the offer, refusing to think of himself as above other people. Still unaware of his real power, Kurt continues taking as many odd jobs as possible, which might just make him a pivotal part of the kingdom before he even notices it.
OP protagonist again, just in everything non-combat. And again with pretty plagiarized concept. Ventured into second episode to see if any sort of interesting story starts to unveil eventually, but, alas.

18. Summer Pockets [feel.] (Finished 2/?)
Tags: Romance
Summer Pockets is set on an isolated, rural, and peaceful island on the Seto Inland Sea called Torishirojima, which has a population of about 2,000 people. The protagonist, Hairi Takahara, grew up in an urban setting, but after an unpleasant incident, he uses the recent death of his grandmother as an excuse to come to the island to take care of her estate sale.
Once there, he gets to know four girls, who are the focus of the story: Shiroha Naruse, who forgot her summer vacation; Ao Sorakado, who is pursuing the legends of the island; Kamome Kushima, a high-class girl looking for a pirate ship; and Tsumugi Wenders, a younger girl trying to find herself.
I always try to ignore the fact that authors are from Key so that my judgement is not biased. But if I try to find something similar... it would be Air, as it's again Summer and again MC comes to town with strong deja vu sense, but it's now done in more traditional charage way. And I seriously dislike Air. Summer pockets is nothing but a spree of constant sickening self-repeats. I only hope that Key authors impotency gets acknowledged so that I do not need to give them all those constant second chances that they diligintely screw up with 100% success rate.

In his last life, Liam lived as a moral, responsible person...but died deep in debt and betrayed by his wife. Reborn into the ruling family of a vast interstellar empire, Liam knows that life is divided between the downtrodden and the ones who do the stomping, so this time he's going to take what he wants and live for himself. But somehow, things refuse to work out that way. Despite doing his best to become a tyrant, Liam's decisions lead to nothing but peace and prosperity for the empire under his rule, and he just gets more and more popular!
Harems are trash in majority of cases. Concept of selfish tyrant ending up benevolent for servants is nothing new. First three episodes are slow and absolutely non hooking or inspirational in any way. No incentive or desire to explore further.

Tags: Fantasy, Romance
In the kingdom of Girtonia, the Adenauer family has been giving birth to saints for centuries. Two sisters form the newest generation of holy women who protect the lands from monsters and calamities. The eldest, Philia, is considered a prodigy in the field, capable of solving any problem in no time. Meanwhile, the youngest, Mia, is not as extraordinary as her older sister but has charmed the entire country with her lovely personality. Despite their striking differences, Philia and Mia share an unbreakable bond.
Sadly, Mia is the only person who truly cares for Philia. Because of Philia's expressionless face and aloof demeanor, their parents always scold her, and the citizens complain about her. Moreover, Julius Girtonia, the second prince and Philia's fiancé, would rather have a more amicable girl as his wife-to-be. For that reason, he cancels the engagement and sells Philia off to the neighboring kingdom, Parnacorta, which has recently lost its own saint.
Having no say on the matter, Philia immediately goes to serve Parnacorta. As a foreigner, she presumes that she will not be treated much better than in Girtonia. Contrary to her expectations, Philia might have finally found a place with people worth smiling for.
At first it looked like the least irritating otome that I could recall even though I'm still not target audience. But then it becomes basically female version of The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows with OP protagonist and former party regretting heavily losing FL... and that's super irritating.

However, her passion is reignited by sounds from the old school building, where she meets a skilled drummer who shares her love for rock. Together, they embrace their inner rockstars, elegantly clashing and shouting their way through the academy in this captivating tale of grace and rebellion.
During first episode I actually caught vibes of Fukumenkei noise and also with mature characters, so it hooked me all right. But it ended up being emotional fuss about instrumental music, and I don't appreciate such music without vocals.

30. Your Forma ユア・フォルマ [Geno Studio] (Finished 2/13)
Tags: Detective Mystery, Sci-Fi
In an alternate 2023, the Your Forma, a miraculous "smart thread" technology initially developed to treat a massive outbreak of viral encephalitis, has become an integral part of daily life. But these convenient devices come with an invasive drawback—they record every sight, sound, and even emotion their users experience.
For electronic investigator Echika Hieda, diving into peoples' memories via the Your Forma and hunting for evidence to solve the toughest crimes is all part of a day's work. The problem is, she's so good at what she does that her assistants literally fry their brains trying to keep up with her. After putting one too many aides in the hospital, the top brass finally furnish Echika with a partner on her level, a brilliant yet cheeky android named Harold Lucraft. Does this unlikely duo have what it takes to resolve their mutual suspicions and avert a deadly technological infection from sweeping across the globe before it's too late?
Nice graphics, setting and character designs are wasted on mystery detective with brain dives that have been used in lots of media for decades. Sadly, for me the impact does not even reach the level of Psychopass.

31. Apocalypse Hotel アポカリプスホテル [CygamesPictures] (Finished 2/12)
Tags: Sci-Fi
Many years have passed since humanity vanished from Earth, yet the Galaxy Tower hotel in Ginza, Tokyo, continues to operate. At the center of its staff is Yachiyo, a dedicated hotelier robot, along with other employee robots working tirelessly in various departments. Together, they spend what feels like an eternity maintaining the hotel, despite having no guests. As they await the return of their owner and the day humanity reappears.
Now, a small miracle is about to change everything for Yachiyo and her robotic colleagues.
With a boring setup like this leaving no room for the story, it should be exceptional to impress. There's no interest for me in episodic space hotel stuff. First introductory episode is relatively fresh as has no customers, but second has first alien guest, so starts to feel like remake of 21 Emon. At least it's inventive and tries to make the best of what it can.

The Photography Club is in danger of shutting down?! And the Cinema Club too?! Fret not, for they shall merge and become... Cinephoto Club! Now club members Satsuki, An, and Sakurako are asked to be the main characters for manga artist Haruno's latest work that's centered around action cameras. The girls head out to capture the lovely sights of Japan, experimenting with gadgets beyond photography and film equipment, and of course, chomping on the local delicacies along the way!
Setting does not really matter for CGDCT as long as process is made fun somehow. Well, it's not packed with events like Lucky Star, not funny as Strawberry Marshmallow, has no music like K-On. All I see is slow boring SOL trying into moe with photo theme that I can't stand. No good humor is spottend in first episodes, so it's being a torture for me.

Tags: Action, Adventure, Fantasy
In the harsh region known as the borderlands, humans must fight an endless battle against demi-human creatures that come at them relentlessly, intent on taking their land and their gods. A young boy named Kai, fighting to defend his village, sustains a life-threatening injury that causes him to regain memories from a past life. If you're not a guardian bearer, it's like you're playing life on hard mode... Kai's newfound knowledge gives him a new sense of the unfair "rule set" that governs the world around him. One thing is clear: For those without a god to serve as their guardian, life is a constant struggle for survival. Thus begins the epic tale of a young boy's ascent into a vast world filled with magic, bloodshed, and mystery.
If I tried to find a comparison, I'd say Utawarerumono with elements of Solo leveling, and both are trash in my evaluation. It's slow, cheezy, sterile and stupid, but at least story seems to be slightly better than that of those two. All the bad factors considered, it's not worth further time investment.
