  • It’s probably the most accessible anime I openly recommend. It’s well-animated, strong visual identity, simple premise, unique setting for an anime, and an excellent adaptation of the comedy.

    I emphasis the comedy and accessibility because, historically, anime has suffered from borderline cringey tropes/humour (fanservice, perverted humour, women sharing one personality, etc) which limits it’s audience to a specific demo. SpyXFamily blends western aesthetics with clean humour all from the perspective of a realistic 5yo that sees the world wonderfully juxtaposed to an era of turmoil.

    You may not love it but I feel confident recommending this as a gateway to other great slice of life animes (Like Skip & Loafer, Dungeon Meshi).












  • Been pretty basic on my weekly manga reading (I can only be bothered to read the MangaPlus releases) so this thread is appreciated!

    relatively new series that look promising are:

    • No Gyaru In This Class:
    • Shiba Inu Rooms:
    • Monochrome Days:
    • Hero Organization:

    New series that are, deservingly, picking up traction.

    • Shinobi Undercover:
    • Ichi The Witch:

    Will always take the time to shout out my personal faves that deserve more love:

    • Witch Watch:
    • Undead Unluck:

    I plan to put brief explanations when I get home :)
