3. Zom 100
4. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2
5. Dark Gathering
6. Classroom for Heroes
7. Ayaka
If I had to choose between One Piece and a girlfriend...I think I'll go with One Piece

I'm also watching Shiguang Dailiren season 2, Mushoku Tensei season 2, Mononogatari season 2, and Sugar Apple Fairy Tale season 2, but I'm not counting second/follow-up seasons and just taking brand new series into account as that's how I usually do this so I can judge each series only among its peers in the season in which it originally started. I'm watching 11 other new seasonals besides those.

Out of the 11, my Top 5 would go something like this:

1.) AI no Idenshi (This is the only one I'm close to completely certain will remain in its slot, in this case at #1, until the end of the season unless some really unforeseen detrimental turn of events occurs)
2.) Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon (Yes, seriously)
3.) Zom 100
4.) Helck
5.) Dark Gathering

I feel that #s 2 - 4 though can easily end up exchanging places and being swapped around by season's end; I'm firm in my convictions that they're somewhere there around the list, but the actual specific numbers are more loose. Two are only halfway through and one (which is a two cour series) only a quarter of the way through. They can easily end up improving further or going downhill further relative to the way I see them now, so they're all close.

Just as it sounds! The title is extremely literal, believe it or not. It's basically about a vending machine otaku (nerd/obsessive) who dies an extremely....what many would see as pointless and exceedingly silly death, and then wakes up as a sentient vending machine with his human mind and  all his memories, personality, thought process, etc. completely intact, in a classic/typical-style medieval isekai land except it's an open-air layer of a dungeon filled with various eccentric characters. He has to rely on his encyclopedic knowledge of our-world vending machines, including random and niche, unexpected ones, to solve the villagers' many problems while making friends along the way yet being limited by being a big block of iron without a mouth that can't walk....

I haven't watched much of this season yet or even caught up with most of them, but from the few episodes I might have seen from those I have watched so far, I'd say:

1. Zom 100
2. Bleach
3. Horimiya
4. Mushoku tensei
5. Atelier Ryza
6. JJK2

Also saw someone else put record of ragnarok, I guess I can include that since I did finish it as well since it was only 5 episodes for the latest part. It was alright, nothing special, I'd place it at the bottom of my list though.

My favorite this season, without a doubt, is Mushoku Tensei II: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu. Behind it, and following it, are the surprise of the year in my view, Zom 100: Zombie ni Naru made ni Shitai 100 no Koto, and the fun spin-off Horimiya: Piece.

for new anime not sequels
my happy marriage as got to be on top with it beautiful art style and animation plus the story Kaya rank up there with Myne from shield hero and Akito form fruit basket  as most hated character for me
reborn as a vending machine (as an isekai junkie not having one on the list seem wrong and it the best of this season)
the most heretical last boss queen from villainess to savior (the other isekai Pride a more serious and ground Catarina from my next life as a villainess)
the masterful cat is depressed again today 
classroom of heroes (just because of the centaur character Dione)

as for sequel 
the duke of death and his maid

"Favorite anime of summer 2023 so far?"

Undead Girl Murder Farce and Oooku.
Also Helck is Mashle without the Harry Potter trash in it and Mononogatari 2nd Season is a decent battle shounen.

The rest are kind of underwhelming.

Sequels are quite good with Jujutsu Kaisen season 2, Bungo Stray Dogs season 5, and Mushoku Tensei season 2. As far as non-sequels go My Happy Marriage, Zom 100, Undead Murder Farce and Depressed Cat are the standouts. Rurouni Kenshin shows promise but it's too early to form much of an opinion on it. 

If I were to pick a definitive favorite it would probably be JJK S2 or maybe My Happy Marriage depending on how the rest of the season goes.
