Though the vast majority of the time they turn out to be pretty good actually so why the hell not

So far, the trends I've noticed are:
-edgy magical girls
- stuck in parallel world AKA "Isekai"
- stuck in video game world

and now it's Time Travel this time.

Gotta love how Japs and their trends make certain themes get tiring real fast.

It more has to do with the fact that every big anime title this year so far has been about time travel. In the winter it was Erased..in the spring it is Re:Zero...next summer we got two of the biggest titles Orange and Re:Write that involved time travel too and than later we also have steins gate 0. so it is more of a fact that time travel series are the ones dominating the otaku interest at the moment rather than the amount being released.

Boku Dake could have been better but ended up messed up at some point.
Re:Zero is doing great as it is now though I expect it to be open ending/incomplete adaptation.
S;G: 0 is hard to put any expectation despite it is easy toe enjoy the series and the movie.
Orange and ReLife do have some interesting impression from those who tried the manga.
Rewrite might be enjoyable.

As for the other incoming along this one, might as well wait.

I do not like the character designs.....look so generic....that booby chick, I've seen her in other animes or at least her twins anyway.

Director of Terra E so it might be good but it still looks crappy to me. More happy go lucky shit. Give me more dark shit to balance out the lighter crap.

based from the cover i don't think it's gonna be a serious one. but it MIGHT be a serious one like Re:zero.......i hope. when it comes to time travel, usually the plot is stong. but i must say, this year we got a little bit more of time travel anime including Stiens;Gate but still it's out of question. i think they need to lower it a little bit or it might ended up like "Mc went into a game/fantasy world" anime which most people hate. or for more obvious example : *cough* generic harem and ecchi *cough* < this one is the most thing which most people don't want to see in anime these days.

Gotta strike that pan while it's hot.

Time travel is the in element right now. I'm fine with time travel just as long as it's written / done well. Not sure if I'll like this anime based on the synopsis but I'll check it out anyway and let it go from there. (":

So many people are tired of time travel anime... But this one looks different. Not 'travel back in time to stop something bad' but 'travel nack and meet historical figures' so I dunno why a lot of people are complaining... It won't be another BokuMachi or Re:Zero I guess.
