takamono said: The only thing they cut was the shrine visit in vol 15, but let's be honest that wasn't that important. Sure the cgi kind of sucked but it is so rampant in anime nowadays. It was arguably the most enjoyable show of spring due to lack of filler, fast pacing, eventful occurences which explains it doing so well on corner. Of course the new gens tried to vote kaguya and spy x like crazy and ignore any criticism.icefirestone23 said: Ratings has nothing to do with my enjoyment on those showstakamono said: Surprise: Warau Arsnotoria Sun! , Akiba Meido Sensou, and Fuufu Ijou, Koibito Miman.

tomasowa said: G-Witch is a w0ke disaster in the west. Goes to show what happens when anime studios bend the knee to npcs. We have never seen a gundam show get so much hype only to get backlash from every corner of the gundam fanbase.The best surprise would be Gudetama: An Eggcellent Adventure. The story-writing was endearing, animation quality both retained its stylistic cuteness and brought to life Shakipiyo's cuteness, and the racial uniqueness of actress Serena Motola augmented the anime feel like a freckle-filter would on TikTok influencers. The biggest disappointment would be Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury. Have never a fan of self-loathing, insecure protagonists and the story seemed the most claustrophobic in terms of scope; a far cry from Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans ... |

C danchi was more like wasted potential. from the start it was obvious it wasn't going to be good. I'm surprised it actually semi-answered everything by the end |

Surprised the Tokyo Mew Mew remake came out as well as it did. And also that Molcar got a second season. Disappointed in everything else. 2022 was not a good year imo and I'm surprised to see it so highly praised continually. At least I got to catch up on old stuff. |

Chainsaw Man, and Ranking of Kings. I guess Bocchi the Rock would possibly qualify as a surprise, but honestly I loved K-On, and everyone and their dogs say it's surprisingly good, so it wasn't much of a surprise for me. I read Chainsaw Man, so going into the anime I wasn't actually expecting to be all that into it since I knew what happened, I just wanted to refresh my memory to keep up with the discussion. It's not like I thought it'd be a bad adaptation, I knew it'd look great, but that's not enough for me to enjoy a story I've read in the same way I would a new story I've never experienced. It surprised me though, the tone of the anime was far more serious than the manga, so I got to see everything in this first season in a far new light. I don't say this often, but I genuinely prefer the anime over the manga, the less stoic and comedic tone makes me actually feel more when something serious happens. Unlike the anime onlies I wasn't here wondering what happens, but as a manga only (who barely remembers the beginning and middle parts of it) I was genuinely excited to see how the events translated onto the anime. Ranking of Kings was both a surprise and disappointment. I already guessed I'd like it, but the first half was genuinely a 9.5 for me, I loved it so damn much, it's like the show was made for me. I knew people said the second half is bad, but I decided to disregard that and judge it for myself, with some slight expectations of it not being on the same level just to prepare myself. I have not watched passed episode 16 yet, because episode 15 and 16 irked me so god damn bad that those two episodes have soured so much of my opinion that I had to put it on hold. It legit became a 7/10 just from that alone, and I suspect those two episodes aren't the reason why people say the second half is worse. Like, I'm sure I'm overreacting so I will finish the rest of it once I can go in with a more positive mindset, but god damn did those episodes take the wind out of my sails. It's not like the episodes before it were amazing either, they were inoffensive, but at the same time felt like down episodes made to fill in between the attention grabbing ones. |

Biggest surprise: Bocchi The Rock It was the second anime I picked up for the Fall 2022 season (after Bleach TYBW) because I saw the promotional visuals on Facebook and thought that it will gonna be special and yet, It still exceeded my high expectations for it. Biggest disappointment: Shikimori I thought it will a good successor to My Dress Up Darling, but I found it bland and flat. Put it on hold after 2 eps. May come back for it in the future |

Bocchi the Rock surely disanointing, I expected a lot and got naught. Surprise do not know really: Tensai Shitarta Ken Deshita is good but that was kind of expected. Ya Boy Kongming may be, I am still on ep 1 so too early to say much. However it is somewhat better then I could expect. Suprises unlikely for me since if I do not like premise I will not watch it. |

Not RELEASED 2022, but I watched them in 2022 for the first time: Surprise: Douluo Dalu -> It's surprising cuz it starts off kind of weird and looks bad, but it gets so insanely good. my favorite Isekai after Slime Disappointment: Food Wars Season 5, just trash XC |

Surprised: Romantic Killer I didn't warm up to it at first, but the way it gradually ended on a emotionally charged finale really took me by surprise. It left me with a positive impression despite my initial misgivings. --- Disappointed: Akiba Maid War I loved the first episode, but the show had already climaxed from that point. The show had left me feeling bitterly disappointed for being unable to satisfy my yearnings. I wanted to re-experience that high that I felt from the first episode with its comically bizarre and bloody action that exuded style for how utterly demented it was. It has never reached those heights again, as none of the following episodes came close to delivering on the same level. |

Surprise: Bocchi the Rock Disappointment: Spy x Family. Overhyped af. Forced comedy. Bullshit, unrealistic moments like Yor kicking a car so hard that the car loses control. Formulaic. Too much of a slice of life, with canon episodes feeling like filler. Also, the fanbase is annoying too. |

Surprise: My Dress-Up Darling, didn't expect to like a SoL show that much and Lookism which I didn't expect to be so enjoyable given it's below average animation Disappointment: The delay of Lookism and maybe Harem in the Labyrinth of Another World but I didn't finish that because it was extremely boring But even the shows that didn't live up to the hype I still enjoyed like Spy x Family, Cyberpunk Edgerunners and Chainsaw Man (haven't finished it yet) |
