stuff, why are you asking? post your tierlist if you want to compare and aren't just asking for recs

>>285382122
If you have time to make dogshit threads like this, you have time to watch anime.
>>
>>285382200
oh so you don't actually watch anime, you just put it on the background and zone out
>>
>>285382231
all television is designed to be experienced partially occupied e.g. while eating or doing chores or interacting with your family, and unlike apparently most /a/nons I don't have such crippling ADD that I struggle to keep pace with subtitles even when giving it my undivided attention
>>
>>285382348
funny how you brought up ADD when the need to multi task or have background noise is a huge symptom
>>
>>285382428
sure, thankfully I have the fast ADD where I can reliably perform my work duties while keeping up with the latest hit series, and not the slow ADD like those who beg mangafags to clarify things that literally just happened on screen

Plus a few carrying over from last season. Might drop a few of these, like maybe 29-sai depending on how it goes. I watched the first episode of Mayotune but the premise was incredibly retarded so I don't anticipate continuing that. Still planning on starting Shibou Yuugi and Samurai Troopers but need to make more time.

I watch:
>Frieren S2
It just started, but I've read manga and I really like it.

>Oshi No Ko S3
I know about the ending, but I'm still interested. Also girls are cute.

>You and I Are Polar Opposites
Pretty fun and cute romcom. I enjoy it.

>A Misanthrope Teaches a Class for Demi-Humans
Nothing special so far, but only 2 episodes in so we'll see. Might drop.

>Does It Count If You Lose Your Innocence to an Android?
Almost hentai. Episodes are like 3-4 minutes so whatever. Might be wise to wait until the whole season (8 episodes) is out and "binge" watch the whole 30 minutes of it.

>The Holy Grail of Eris
Meh, but I watch it for the boobs of the ghost of the witch. Might drop.

>Shiboyugi: Playing Death Games to Put Food on the Table
I'm not really into Saw-like stuff, but it's something original so it's a nice change of pace.

>There was a Cute Girl in the Hero's Party, so I Tried Confessing to Her
An isekai slop, but the girl is cute. Might drop.

>Tune In to the Midnight Heart
Harem romcom. Not bad but nothing great so far.

>Noble Reincarnation: Born Blessed, So I'll Obtain Ultimate Power
Isekai-slop, haven't watched the last episodes but it's the first series for me to drop if I decide to drop anything.

>Wash It All Away
Now that's possibly one of the best series this season. I mean if you're into slow slice of life series. Extremely comfy.

>You Can't Be In a Rom-Com with Your Childhood Friends!
Another romcom. Also harem. Kinda spicy. It's ok so far.

I also watch
>Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle
From the last season, but it's still not finished due to a number of delays. Somewhat mid, but girls are cute.

>Chained Soldier S1
Season 2 started to air, so I decided to catch up on the first season. Feels like an action ecchi romcom. I'm halfway through the first season, but slowed down watching since I watch a number of new shows now.
>>
>>285383149
>There was a Cute Girl in the Hero's Party, so I Tried Confessing to Her
Well that's never a good idea. Unless you ARE the hero, she's obviously holding out for him (who is better).

Finally got S1 out of my backlog this week in preparation for the first S2 airing, it's very good but not quite the masterpiece it is billed to be
>Seihantai na kimi to boku
Cute romcom, I also like the dynamics between the freinds
>Kirei ni shite moraemasu ka
Read through the manga around a year and a half back, I love how sweet the FMC is and will often go out of her way to help others
Nothing else has really caught my attention

Frieren and Ikoku Nikki. This has really been the first season where I picked up less than 5 shows. Grim.
>>
>>285385569
From when?
>>
>>285385597
~2007. I'll be honest here and say that I am pretty picky about what I watch. My blacklist is thus far:
>isekai & native isekai
>harems
>romcoms
>villainess
>blatantly obvious self insert power fantasies
>generic fighting shounens
This filters out a solid 75% of all anime currently out there. While another 20% is just plain bad, due to direction or production issues.

This is actually a pretty good season, I usually have way more dropped by now.
>>
>>285385749
>watching anime since 2007 yet still unironically posts "native isekai"
Grim.
>>
>>285386494
It's either native isekai or "generic jap fantasy that takes inspiration from Dragon's Quest, JRPG's, and/or D&D". The former just rolls off the tongue.
>>
>>285386494
the only people who have a problem with the term love some embarrassing shoelacer shlock and want to divert by saying at least it isn't "isekai", because MC being from another world is apparently the sole reason why those stories typically suck ass

>>285387487
You can say "isekai" and we'll catch the drift that you probably isn't watching party gacha 999. If you go out of your way to use shitpost buzzwords, don't complain if you're called out for it.
>>
>>285382161
My brother work 18 hours a day not counting taking care of all his children, he still watches about 3 anime episodes every day, that's enough to cover 20 seasonals, so once again anyone complaining about time simply doesn't like anime, and is ok if you say so.
>>
>>285382122
This argument immediately fails by the fact that you are posting in 4chan, though some people actually don't realize it, at least 80% of you free time goes to browsing 4chan, just stop doing that and you'll see you get all the time in the world.

if he slept more he could be a better worker and earn a higher wage and not have to work so many hours

so I watched the first 2 episodes of the businessman isekai. The first episode I noticed the one native officer guy looking at the businessman quite a few times, odd. Then the 2nd episode and the kiss and have buttsecks.

I really should read a synopsis first.

Watching 3 episodes a night uses like an hour of your day. You can easily watch 12-15 shows a season as long as you don't load them all on one or two days. I always watch whatever airs the day it airs

"graded" these sort of on a curve based on the season, idk ended up with a bit too many tiers, hard to specify so many things, I could probably still swap quite a few of these so don't take the positioning THAT seriously

Ikoku Nikki probably wouldn't be as high last week, but ep3 was really solid and made it a strong contender for my personal AOTS
Gnosia and Strange Fake are great adaptations with solid production values and enough time to do it justice
Shibou Yuugi is right up my alley, I like death game stuff and the direction is really intriguing to me

some other notable things I guess

eris no seihai seems to be a "villainess" type of story at first but it seems to be going on a thriller/mystery direction instead, pretty entertaining thus far
haven't seen the source but it feels like darwin is going to be a massive trainwreck
roll over and die could be a so bad it's good edge kino
jingai kyoushitsu is alright if you like monster girls, kinda like demi-chan, although the MC is a massive downgrade from the chad teacher being a recovering NEET loser instead

lots of boring isekai/reincarnation/fantasy with gamification trash like always, Majutsushi seems like the better one out of the bunch, the MC is more entertaining than most, good banter, has fun with things and doesn't take everything too seriously, Odayaka is okay but comfy enough so far with an MC that's apparently (so far) not overpowered or anything, and seems to use his head and other people to accomplish things, his personality is also better than most I guess, despite the bar being on the floor for these things

also lots of gimmick romances and some shoujo stuff which I don't really care for most of the time, seihantai and uruwashi are the standouts to me, both have good art, are cute and seem to developing with stuff actually happening at a good enough pace instead of the usual will they won't they crap, characters still feel a bit gimmicky though, but maybe they'll get better over time

I thought I'd picked out more than this to watch ahead of the season, I wonder where they all went, because even out of these I'm about to drop some
at least there's still one or two excellent series to watch, and I guess I can fill the rest of the time with backlogs or rewatches or staring at the wall or whatever

>Ikoku Nikki
a heart-wrenching hardcore drama, the kind that makes you wonder why you're watching this as an anime, but then suddenly an elephant
>Uruwashi
cute ouji gap moe, "karee no oujisama" had me laughing for the rest of the night
>Frieren
started late and with a Stark highlight episode, kind of a poor footing for AOTD to be passed up by curry prince
>HanaKimi
disappointing that she's only an orekko because she's pretending to be a boy and she isn't just like that, also there is not nearly enough of her racing, still solid though
>Mushroom Witch
the kind of premise that belongs to an experimental art film that your favorite director made early in his career, not a full series, luckily there are three episodes out so I can find out quicker if I'm dropping it, also fuck two-part premieres
>Mayotuna
frustrating contrast between the budget and hype and the actual product, like if Roshidere was a competitive harem and not a solid monokino that makes the stuco worth it
>Shiboyugi
weird decision to supposedly focus on the psychological aspects of death games by not showing off horrific gore, being horrified by gore isn't part of the psychological effect, dude needs to delete his X account and touch grass

>>285390119
you could just not touch all the landfill isekai, you know? also what developments did I miss in Gnosia for it to rank above the adorable little blind girl romance?
>>285388551
how do you pick so few and they all be crap
>>285388765
glad you're enjoying the hero anime, how could you hate Luna tho
>>285386478
it's telling that someone who doesn't jibe with Ikoku Nikki and can't stand Chiramune would like that terrible childhood friend anime
>>
>>285390689
>you could just not touch all the landfill isekai, you know?
I like giving almost everything a chance, who knows maybe I'll find something unexpected and end up enjoying it, I do drop most of them pretty early or almost immediately though, despite some having fans that swear it gets good on the 27th volume or something

>also what developments did I miss in Gnosia for it to rank above the adorable little blind girl romance?
I mean, I dunno what I can say that would change your mind, you also seem to dislike Shiboyugi although I didn't really understand your point there, either way I find the general werewolf loop and the mystery pretty compelling in Gnosia, and it also manages to develop its cast of characters pretty well, I also enjoyed the VN so seeing it get an actually good adaptation, which often isn't the case, made me pretty happy
>>
>>285390689
post tits or get back in the kitchen and stay there woman
>>
>>285391222
you should watch roll over and die since you seem to be fond of the edge stuff
>>
>>285390689
>glad you're enjoying the hero anime, how could you hate Luna tho
I just wasn't into the presentation desu, I fully accept that it's a me issue.

Also re:mayotuna they had cut a decent amount even by episode 2, budget not withstanding. The manga is a superior experience but I wouldn't call it essential either way

Grail of Eris is also much more than it seems on the surface, the plot gets very complex but whether it'll get to that point this season is up in the air.
