Summer 2026 anime

A new season comes, and with it a TON of isekai... Next season has another batch of slop as always. Seems like the genre is slowly shifting to just reincarnation (mc dies and reincarnates in the same world). God, when it will end? Pure fantasy is plagued by either "my skill is the weakest but actually the strongest" and fucking videogame terminology, this is retarded as hell. I dream for the day we get another Guin Saga-like, a fantasy anime that takes itself seriously and is NOT HAREM.

There's a bunch of fantasy shoujo next season, romance-loving women are eating good. There's also a new Lyrical Nanoha, interesting.

I'm eager for Jaadugar and the second season of Polar Opposites; what are you guys looking for? I know some of you like Clevatess and GiTS, but what else?

Youjo Senki season 2, obviously. I really hope it's good, the first season, movie, and special were all good so I am hoping the long delay hasn't led to a nosedive in quality.

What's weird is how many bad isekai are getting a season 2. The one about the skeleton knight, the one about the old dude with a bum leg, trapped in a dating sim, maybe more I missed. I can only assume these piles of shit sell well if they are getting even more adapting when actually good series get one season and then disappear.

I'm looking forward to Let's Go Kaiki-gumi. The manga was entertaining. I'm also looking forward to Sora wa Akai Kawa no Hitori, since it looks like a proper isekai without anything about being reborn or JRPG mechanics in it.

I'm also looking forward to Jaadugar, GiTS, and Youjo Senki. Actually, I'm interested in more stuff than usual this season.
 
This piece of fan art I came across makes Dragonball look like a completely different type of franchise.

But do you think that it will do the other reincarnation thing where the main character has literally only one interest and spends the entire show talking about that interest in the most turbo sperg way possible?
 
Gou could've been alright had it done things differently. Passione and the director were just that incompetent, and Ryukishi didn't supervise them, if he had even cared to begin with.
I'm probably looking on it with rose tinted glasses a bit because I know this sounds dumb but I really did enjoy Gou when I watched it.

Turns out the manga handled it much better than the anime, but it still ended up dropping the ball later that I just can't recommend it at all.
 
Well i watched Season 1 of "Those Who Hunt Elves" basically 3 people get summon to another world and after beating the big bad (like in 1 minute) they decide to return to their world and to do that their summoner needs to use incanation but during the incantation she was distracted and it broke and went all over the world and got applied to random 5 elves and now they travel the world stripping elves to see if they have the mark.
Main thing that got me was that the characters are using T-74 tank as their means of transport (that later gets possesed by cat spirit)

"The elves of Middle Earth never faced a foe as terrifying, as determined, as down right demented as Those Who Hunt Elves. Strongman Junpei, Hollywood actress Airi, teenage Ritsuko and their T-74 tank have landed in a world of elves, and the spell to send them home has run amuck and split into five pieces that appear as tattoos on the bodies of five young female elves. So they set out on a quest to strip every elf they can lay their hands on until they find the missing spell pieces. Get ready for the wildest, craziest fantasy ever animated as Those Who Hunt Elves prove that elf stripping is more than just a job; it's an adventure!"
