This season I've started Season 2 of Megalo Box and Zombieland Saga. Other than that I'm watching the Monogatari series with a friend, we are currently on Nisemonogatari

    This season:

    Fumetsu no Anata e | To Your Eternity

    Intend to watch, haven't started yet. Hopefully good.

    Sentouin, Hakenshimasu! | Combatants Will Be Dispatched!

    Definitely problematic edgy stuff. It has the same author as konosuba though which I enjoy some of the comedy in. Episode one is all booby jokes, hopefully that stops else it's going to be a drop. Target audience - redditors.

    Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san | Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro

    Very high production value but comes off as abuse-porn. Extreme bullying situation. I'm hopeful that there's an arc, that the bully changes, that the show actually looks at the harm the bully causes to their victim and explores it. I suspect that it will not though and its target audience is redditors.

    Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song

    Episode 1 of this was fucking fantastic. Watch it. It opens with a machine uprising against humans over-exploiting them. Gives me big Madoka feelings, I suspect a madoka-like story but with a cyber-future setting.

    Megalobox 2: Nomad

    Absolutely loved season 1. Loving the change of tone and pace of this so far. Very good start and the soundtrack is living up to s1.

    Boku no Hero Academia 5 | My Hero Academia Season 5 [Ep 03 / Ep 91]

    I like mainstream trash from time to time. This show treats its female characters like crap and that really annoys me.

    Super Cub [Ep 01]

    This is the comfiest nicest shit of the season. Pure SOL. Reminds me of Aria and Flying Witch a lot.

    Zombie Land Saga: Revenge

    Zombie idols are fun.

    SSSS.DYNAZENON [Ep 01]

    GO GO POWER RANGEERRRRRRS

    Fruits Basket: The Final Season [Ep 01]

    I love Fruits Basket

    Yakunara Mug Cup mo | Let's Make a Mug Too

    More comfy anime. I like it, sadly the episodes are only 15 minutes.

      It has the same author as konosuba

      I must watch this then

      Gives me big Madoka feelings, I suspect a madoka-like story but with a cyber-future setting

      I shall watch

      Megalobox 2: Nomad

      Agreed!! I'm really enjoying the second season and love the new tone and new characters.

      I like mainstream trash from time to time. This show treats its female characters like crap and that really annoys me.

      Jujutsu Kaisen had much better female characters if you want another mainstream action show to watch

        Yeaaaah I liked the way Jujutsu treats them. In MHA I feel like the girls are basically like accessories. They're treated terribly, they're objects, they're never given stories, none of them are displayed as genuinely comparative or strong like the boys and all of them need saving by boys in almost any situation they enter.

        That's without even getting into the way they're used for sketchy camera angles in every single appearance they make. Boys? HERO POSE. Girls? Sexy pose.
