Wow, there a bunch of Animation Studios I never heard of before.

Now that SukaSuka (Short name for Shuumatsu nani Shitemasu ka?....) has a PV.
My Top Anticipated anime are:
AoT season 2
SukaSuka
Sakura Quest
Danmachi Spinoff
Alice to Zorukou

Rest I'll either watch on a whim or not depending on how things go.

Try out Boku no Hero, I think it might be your style since there is No Tsundere in the series lol(unless you count Bakugou...lol)


I recommend it too I watched the whole season 1 yesterday and I truly loved this anime

I can't tell you how much I'm hyped for s2 now

I wonder why Granblue is not on the list. It will officially air in spring


I will be watching so many anime in spring because there a lot of good ones.

Boku no Hero Academia 2nd Season
Shingeki no Kyojin Season 2
Tsugumomo
Granblue Fantasy The Animation
Souryo to Majiwaru Shikiyoku no Yoru ni (it looks like hentai anime)
Rokudenashi Majutsu Koushi to Akashic Records
Busou Shoujo Machiavellianism
Berserk (2017)
Clockwork Planet
Seikaisuru Kado
Shingeki no Bahamut: Virgin Soul
Re:Creators
Zero kara Hajimeru Mahou no Sho
Kenka Banchou Otome: Girl Beats Boys (I love traps)
Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka Gaiden: Sword Oratoria
Sin: Nanatsu no Taizai

Not decided. depends on whether early episodes are good

Sakurada Reset
Renai Boukun
Sakura Quest
Quan Zhi Gao Shou (PV looks good but most chinese anime I've seen were not good)
Shuumatsu Nani Shitemasu ka? (no PV yet for this one)
Sekai no Yami Zukan (no idea what this anime is about)

Hello, I'll look into it and update the thread if necessary since neither the database nor the official site has been updated with that information. Thanks for pointing it out!

Edit: Will leave it as is until there is enough confirmation from official sources to update the database with! Thread updated!

Mar 19, 2017 2:31 PM by Snow

Umm for natsume it should air on the 11th according to this twitter news i saw.
Source https://twitter.com/LiveChart_me/status/841451412454166528

So if its correct info guess you can add that date for it @Snow

The first PV for I-Do made me want to watch it. This new one was an instant turnoff.

Looking forward to all the sequels like Natsume Yuujinchou season 6th season, Attack on Titan season 2, and Starmyu season 2. The only new anime that seem the most interesting to me and the ones I'll most likely keep up with are Oushitsu Kyoushi Haine, Shuumatsu Nani Shitemasu ka? Isogashii desu ka? Sukutte Moratte Ii desu ka?, and Atom: The Beginning. Anything else that catches my eye and has good reviews/ratings I might just marathon later on.

Here is PV for Souryo to Majiwaru Shikiyoku no Yoru ni... :

Mar 18, 2017 4:58 AM by Baka_Debakar

April 1st is going to be one hell of a day with Attack on Titan and My Hero Academia

Mar 18, 2017 12:21 AM by Salamander2170

Snk, BnHA and Re:creators Saturdays, jesus.
Thank god, because of the time zone, Shingeki no Bahamut is during Friday instead of Saturday because that would be overkill.

Mar 17, 2017 10:11 PM by DatRandomDude

Looks like an extremely strong season, especially for sequels.

Most excited for Rage of Bahamut season 2

Mar 17, 2017 9:59 PM by eXtacy67

Literally two thirds of what I'm waiting for the most is coming out the 1st.

Mar 17, 2017 4:00 PM by Sapewloth

SnK2 and Boku no Hero2, obviously. Sakurada and Zero seems interesting though hope it would be good!

Mar 17, 2017 7:58 AM by Mariecat1

Bleh. Boring looking season. Only watching SnK, Boku no Hero Academia, and Kabuki to start. A few seasons behind on Natsume sadly, which I already know will be my favorite from that list once I get to it.

Mar 17, 2017 4:09 AM by PaladinAlchemist

Holy crap it's spring already? Time just seems to go by so fast now. I guess I'm not gonna get as bored with new animes.

Mar 17, 2017 12:05 AM by Jazzyforcefield

I wonder when SukaSuka PV will come out, one of the main series without a PV yet.

Spring looks pretty good this year in particular the sequels like My Hero Academia, SnK 2, Uchouten Kazoku 2, etc. I'm also looking forward to Kabukibu!, Sakura Quest, Sakurada Reset, Alice to Zouroku, and Zero kara Hajimeru Mahou no Shou.

Mar 16, 2017 9:50 PM by Stark700

snk, atom (huge astro boy here) bnha, and of course that horror anime, cant remember its name

Mar 16, 2017 9:48 PM by LogFront

I actually don't feel like watching SNK S2 while airing - but it's probably difficult to avoid spoilers online so yeah I might just watch it.

Interested in 5 of the coming up shows - especially "Alice to Zouroku" and "Zero kara Hajimeru Mahou no Shou" [But it's a ln adaptation - so I might end up being disappointed.]
As for the seuquels "Natsume Yuujinchou" & "Uchouten Kazoku" are shows I'm really looking forward to.

Mar 16, 2017 8:57 PM by cure_potato

I'm probably going to be watching about 30 of these...Really excited for this season

Mar 16, 2017 8:51 PM by Tokoya

The only sequel that I can actually watch would be SnK 2 but even I have vague memories of it. I still need to catch up with season 1 of SnB and BnH.

Don't know about rest. Some people here seem to be hyping Sakurada Reset. Maybe I will have a look.
