These are shows that I believe have an extremely high chance of being absolutely amazing. Not just a mild maybe, shows that I can assure you with 90% (right now it's closer to 50%, but don't worry we'll get there... probably) accuracy, that are going to be anywhere between great to instant classics.

things that many may put in their top 10, or call their favourite. so come with me, to take a sneak peak at the greatest entries, of the future of anime.

- ANIME THAT WERE HERE BEFORE THEY AIRED (and how I feel about them) -

Pluto _ Masterpiece

PHOENIX: EDEN17 _ It was good, But honestly, didn't leave up to the hype I put on it. A definitive L on my part.

Great Pretender: Razbliuto _ I have yet to see it, and that is true for too many people. This had horrible marketing.

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End - It is literally the highest rated anime on the website

The Apothecary Diaries - Fantastic show

The Grimm Variations - It was pretty good, but I'll call it a miss, cause It wasn't anything mind blowing. Though to be fair to me, I was under the impression that clamp was also doing the story, not just the character designs.

Kingdom Season 5 - I mean, I haven't seen it, but from the score it seems like a hit to me

In this stack you will find all isekai anime, including OVAs, ONAs, specials and movies. There is a lot of unaired stuff here though!

How many have you seen? Have fun discovering your new favourites!

P.S. I shall update this stack as new things come out.

Thanks to Robertbobert for suggesting Cyberpunk Edgerunners and Isekai Suicide Squad.

While 2022 and 2023 both gave us an outstanding amount of new and original anime, what will 2024 bring us? Fortunately I'm here to create a list of shows and movies that I believe will define this year for new anime. I have not read the sources for anything I'm listing, meaning no manga insights, light novel spoilers, or visual novel validations. Everything listed below is based on whether the entry synopsis, poster, or title intrigues me, or whether I know of something that has made me excited for this show.

Criteria:
- The entry has to be a newly airing franchise (specifically not a sequel/prequel season), remakes are fair game though.
- The entry has to start airing within 2024 (meaning Frieren is going to miss this list unfortunately).
- The entry has to end it's season/cour by the end of Winter 2025.
- The entry has to be listed on MAL.

This list will be updated throughout the year as shows get release dates and new series are added.
