okay I've finally seen three-ish episodes of everything, so here's your official spring 2026 anime season preview!
SPRING 2026

[sequels]

Classroom of the Elite S4
	why are there four seasons of this and why did this premiere with four episodes
	Subs (CR): good

Dorohedoro S2
	the trouble with sequels to shows from 5+ years ago is I don't remember shit and this is entirely uninterested in catching you up either

	SCIENCE!!!!!!
	Subs (CR): good

Honzuki no Gekokujou S4
	more books less battles pls

	Subs (CR): bad bad bad

Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken S4
	meetings: the anime, for 60 episodes
	Subs (CR): decent

Tsue to Tsurugi no Wistoria S2
	big glasses
	Subs (CR): pretty good

Yuusha no Kuzu (second cours)
	still more watchable than yuusha-kei
	Subs (CR): okay-ish

[movies/specials]

Isekai de Cheat Skill wo Te ni Shita Ore wa, Genjitsu Sekai wo mo Musou Suru (SP)
	something to hold us off until the second season of kirito in narnia
	Subs (CR): okay

Prism Rondo / Love Through a Prism (second cours)
	this didn't air on TV and I'm not binging like netflix would want me to, so it's accidentally turned into an almost weekly viewing
	Subs (NF): good
SPRING 2026

[new shows]

Akane-banashi
	material's great, though numerous questionable aesthetic decisions make it slightly painful to watch
	Subs (NF): ehh

Awajima Hyakkei
	who'da thunk a shimura takako manga would be good as hell. total surprise.
	Subs (CR): good

Class de 2-banme ni Kawaii Onnanoko to Tomodachi ni Natta
	the webnovelist's fantasy of having a gamer girlfriend fall out of the sky
	Subs (CR): very good

GHOST CONCERT missing Songs
	idk whose idea it was to let agematsu from elements garden write fate/akb0048 and the suno ai grail war where they fight doing literal musical numbers but it's as stupidly fun as it is fucking bizarre
	Subs (CR): good

Ganbare! Nakamura-kun!!
	a fun time with a disaster homo
	Subs (CR): decent

Hidarikiki no Eren
	angry art kids! turning into jaded art adults

	Subs (REMOW): holy fucking awful in every regard

Kanan-sama wa Akumade Choroi
	endless sex jokes
	Subs (CR): pretty good

Kill Ao
	surprisingly watchable for a jump series
	Subs (CR): pretty good

Kirio Fan Club
	not really a fan of this kind of gag manga humor tbh but we'll see if the yuri is enough to keep me watching or not
	Subs (HIDI): decent
SPRING 2026

[new shows]

Koori no Jouheki
	slightly less sauce than the seihantai adaptation but you can definitely tell it's by the same author. pretty damn good
	Subs (NF): okay-ish

Kujima Utaeba Ie Hororo
	???
	Subs (CR): pretty good

Liar Game
	!!!
	Subs (CR): decent

MARRIAGETOXIN
	bro fighting his hardest to achieve heterosexuality in an increasingly homosexual world
	Subs (CR): good

Mahou no Shimai LuluttoLilly
	the soul underneath it isn't bad but the pieces don't really fit together very well lol
	Subs (Bandai Namco): it's... borderline english?

Maid-san wa Taberu dake
	it's exactly what it purports to be on the tin: food tourism in a maid outfit
	Subs (CR): decent

Megami "Isekai Tensei Nani ni Naritai Desu ka" Ore "Yuusha no Rokkotsu de"
	it's 10x dumber than you could ever imagine and the qzilla-shaped sword of damocles hanging over the whole production is terrifying but it's all very impressive human work so far
	Subs (CR): good

NIPPON SANGOKU
	somehow not the weirdest thing I'm watching. still very weird.
	Subs (AMZN): mediocre

Nigashita Sakana wa Ookikatta ga Tsuriageta Sakana ga Ookisugita Ken
	kinda fun start, but ran out of steam quickly and I don't like any of the dudes
	Subs (CR): decent

Otaku ni Yasashii Gal wa Inai
	when I'm in a competition to see how many times I can tell the same joke before everyone runs away
	Subs (CR): pretty good, timing's kinda fucked in some places, and the mandate that they use "gal" everywhere is awkward, but that can't be helped

Ponkotsu Fuuki Iin to Skirt-take ga Futekisetsu na JK no Hanashi
	expected nothing, got a decently charming comedy about a bunch of mega freaks
	Subs (CR): decent
SPRING 2026

[new shows]

Replica datte, Koi wo Suru.
	girl with Problems lets a rogue personality take over any time she doesn't want to be conscious at school. goes about as well as you'd expect.
	Subs (CR): pretty good

Shunkashuutou Daikousha: Haru no Mai

	Subs (CR): decent

Witch Hat Atelier
	wow, anime is good!!
	Subs (CR): good

Yomi no Tsugai
	holy shit bones finally making something worth watching again??
	Subs (CR): good

[dropped]

[4 eps] Mata Korosarete Shimatta no desu ne, Tantei-sama
	trashy jumble of LNisms with mild aspirations of detectiving on the side. garbage
	Subs (CR): pretty good

[3.5 eps] Jishou Akuyaku Reijou na Konyakusha no Kansatsu Kiroku
	awful script, the "villainess" is impossibly stupid for someone who supposedly knows the world and characters inside-out, survives mostly on the OP prince playing everyone like fiddles
	Subs (CR): bad

[3 eps] Kuroneko to Majo no Kyoushitsu
	dumb as shit ecchi magic school nonsense about cat rimming
	Subs (CR): okay-ish

[2 eps] Haibara-kun no Tsuyokute Seishun New Game
	it puts on airs of a heartwarming self-improvement story but doesn't seem to be aware of how not great the vibes of "going back in time to pick up a girl" actually is
	Subs (CR): okay

[2 eps] NEEDY GIRL OVERDOSE
	neither the script nor the direction are strong enough to support whatever the fuck it's trying to do, so the final result is just incoherent, superficial rambling set to the tune of a poor imitation of all the classic 90s Thinking Person anime
	Subs (CR): decent

She is barefoot and her boob has a barcode tattooed on. There's playing cards scattered on the floor, and a cute mascot owl is dressed like a BDSM guy in the back. There is an inexplicable Hitachi massage machine sitting in a puddle on the flood. //Failed(?) Excape "Maybe... this is still part of the act?"

You know what's even worse than fighting game ranked ladder? Mahjong ranked ladder
The whole fighting game community has been talking about online ranked match lately, because the more you grind ranked match, the more you come to hate it. We’ll all eagerly tell you so; probably too ...

Scott McCloud "Explaining Comics" panels where one is himself in a cartoony style and the second is in a realistic style, In the first panel he says, "That's why I decided to draw myself in such a simple style." In the second he says, "Would you have listened to me if I looked like this??"

The first panel has been edited to be labeled "DLSS 5 Off", the second edited with "DLSS 5 On"

You signed up to read insightful applications of feminist theory qua transgender women and I'll get back to that but we are descending into horsegirl hell right now, hand in unlovable hand.

"Why ranked sucks and we can't get rid of it" Wrote about how fighting games rely on ranked matchmaking to retain players even though it often makes the experience worse. Read this to learn about friction, addiction, motivation, and how you can Ranked responsibly. www.patreon.com/posts/152427...
Individually, a person who plays fighting games may have a bunch of different complicated nuanced motivations and emotions that are served by different parts of the fighting game experience — not limited to the game itself on their console, but the broader journey of mastery and connectivity. The high-minded ideal FGC stuff I mentioned above is real and does exist! It just doesn’t exist enough to sell the millions of copies that go into funding the next Street Fighter or Tekken. At scale, building and selling games as a service looks a lot more like making a theme park or a casino, where you have customers entering at a given point, you give them choices on what kind of experience they can have in your game, and you give them clear signs and paths to choose from in order to make it easy for them.

In the above section, we established that people play video games because they want to feel something specific. It’s a brief moment of agency in a day where you were otherwise probably at the mercy of some stupid bullshit at your job, or at school, or in your family, or on the bus, or whatever. We spend most of our day pushing the boulder up, and the brief moment of rest we get is choosing the video game we play in between eating dinner and going to sleep, where we get to act like the person we imagine ourselves to be as the boulder rolls back down the hill.

"Letting go of Evo" I wrote about why I'm breaking my Evo attendance streak (every year since 2011; first Evo was 2003). It's sad, but I think this a good opportunity to celebrate the Evo moments that got me here before moving on. pattheflip.medium.com/letting-go-o...

Letting go of Evo
I don’t know if there’s a whole lot to say about Evo that hasn’t already been said, but I figured I should write something about Evo’s…
