Have you made your summer selections yet?
Summer 2025
CITY
Turkey
Food Court
PSG S2
Princess Orchestra 2nd cour
Bad Girl is a maybe. The Dragon Maid movie probably won't get subbed until next year.
Nothing worth watching besides LOTM.
Boueibu is BACK!
Game Center
Bad Girl
Mikadono
And I will give a chance to every single Original as always, I have high hopes for the summer season indeed.
No, but Dainanoji was the best anime of 2024, S2 just needs to be half as good to own the season.
looks just like winter with mostly sequels and then a bunch of weird shit that people who aren't watching the sequels may be interested in I dunno
the one with the ojousama school and the delinquent boys school next to each other looks nice
so does cygames' horror-looking thing, assuming it doesn't also turn out to be a gag comedy variety show starring sentient tanuki
also the one with the tanuki that calls itself a dog that gets rescued from the rain by hayamin
also hayamin as an ugly chick
the one with the loner camper guy who has his alone time imposed upon by some dumb broad may be redundant as the schedule shapes out but there's a 30% chance that it will be something special
bad girl, game center, food court, and millefuille might be interesting depending on what the threads look like
the drunk milf ecchi may be the hottest thing of the year or it might just make me sick
and last but not least kanokari
not great but far from barren like a couple seasons last year
Some 6-7/10 narou series I recognize there that I read ages ago.
Will watch New Saga, Water magician, Mynoghra, Silent witch, Dainana ouji, silent witch.
Looks like narou slop eaters like me are feasting well this season.
Dainanoji wasn't even the best shota anime of 2024
Wtf?
I thought wataru-kun ended.
Kaos my beloved!
Karaoke Iko!
Mattaku Saikin no Tantei to Kitara
Another older male with high school girl solving cases, I just hope they do mystery better than Chuzenji-sensei.
Nyaight of the Living Cat
Curiosity pick
Jigoku Sensei Nube
How did this ancient thing get anime?
onmyo kaiten and PSG
The following I would probably enjoy
CITY
Turkey
Ame to Kimi to
Bad girl
Fermat
Food court
Utagoe
But I think that is a bit too much. Maybe I will narrow it down to four to have time for backlog. I feel exhausted if there is a seasonal every day.
Subject to change and its hard to rate a lot of these against each other being different genres and all. There are a lot of good shows next season though based on all the PVs I will say that, top 20 are pretty much all definitely going to start watching and even some in the 20s/30s I want to give a shot.
Turkey!
Autistic rant incoming. This key visual pisses me off. You claim to be about bowling yet your visual is just a bunch of girls floating in the sky. Not even a single fucking bowling ball in sight. If you're gonna do "cute girls doing x hobby" then don't hide the damn hobby you want to promote. It's like they're ashamed of the anime's topic and think they might lose viewers by showing it.
Watch cygames originals!!
Hikaru ga Shinda will be aots.
fujos don't even want to watch it
Not like turkey could ever compare to the ping pong anime. Bring back cute girl anime that appeal to actual otaku for fucks sake.
5 isekai
4 native isekai
Slow season.
Dandadan, Hanako-kun, Karaoke Iko, Muchu sa kimi ni. And probably Hikaru just to see how bad it is.
I'm definitely watching Mikadono, Bisque doll, and Seventh Prince since I enjoyed the first season
I might check out Hanataba, Nube, and City, and I still need to watch the first seasons of Hanako-kun and Yofukashi
youtube.com
Add this one to the list and put it somewhere around the top 10 actually, didn't know this was about to get announced for summer.
That’s just our resident h/a/g fujos, the rest will watch it
the amount is ridiculous, fortunately there's a billion sequels so I can filter those out right away
I'm still making my picks
All I can say for sure is that Mikadono is one I am going to pay a lot of attention to
I liked it well enough but it wasn't even the best anime of its season, let alone the whole year
Virgin Punk
I want to believe, but it's gonna be another Umetsu trainwreck again.
Nube
Censored to hell and back. Slutty sensei already got the super christian outfit lmao
Arknights
All style no substance
Silent Witch
Insanely beautiful PVs, but if it's anything like the manga it's gonna be mostly stupid shoujo which is a huge disappointment.
Busamen Fighter
Could be interesting!
Futari Solo Camp
Honestly only interested in the thicc MC and the very few fanservice scenes. Hope they won't cut them but...
9-nine-
Only interested in best girl imouto and her obviously removed sex scene
Clevatess
I actually like the manga.
Panty and Stocking
Confirmed censored garbage.
Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu
Looks really creepy which is good. Hope the homoshit will be contained as much as possible though.
this is the most stacked season since spring 2006
How can anyone even watch anime in 2025 with so much censorship? Do you just get over it or live with the inner pain?
Which shows have lolis? I really need them.
Introduction to Mineraology airs on July 6th
We wait for the BDs.
no lolicon series
The same as usual. Probably gonna check a few SoL and CITY if they nail the joke timing.
BDs
You know 90% of the cases BDs don't remove censorship now, right? Are you living in the 10's?
The worst part is that many of them are works with lolicon traits, but all of that gets lost or removed in the adaptation to make it safe for all audiences.
Grand Blue will finally give me an excuse to get drunk with Anon Babble again.
lolis
Wrong medium. Lolis = bad, shota = good now, you have 7th Prince for shotacon series, which is a bit funny because if it was a girl, it would be basically illegal now.
Maybe it should give you motivation to not drink and work out instead for a fucking change if you want to be fit like them.
Anon you need to just BELIEVE.
many of them are works with lolicon traits
Which ones?
believe
In the 10%? I said that 1 out of 10 series removes censorship for BDs. Obviously, not ones with cute/small girls (though nowadays there's no censorship of them, just plain removing their fanservice scenes).
Maybe it should give you motivation to not drink
Never.
You just need to believe harder! Believe in the future! The future is bright!!
the future is bright
Man, I'm a lolicon. There's no "future" for fanservice in anime in that regard. I wish you all the best though, but not sure anything is bright for any girls unless they are ~30 year old characters in a few years.
Bro these fuckers drink and work out.
That's why I said you should focus on the second part until you're at least a bit fit.
I think Grand Blue is one of the worst shows of the last decade but this is a good post.
The golden age of lolicon will come eventually, but your dick probably won’t work by then, and it’ll all be for nothing.
The golden age of lolicon will come eventually
I don't think so, unless it involves a total society collapse.
What season is the fistfighting Ojou one? Fall or winter?
Either way, Grand Blue for certain. Few other ones will get an episode or two to see if the characters are good enough to stick around for. First time I'm seeing the hag one, if it's another ,,drunk hag comedy/romance" that's also a sure pick.
Bisque doll nun cosplay arc
Oh god no.
I will be watching Rock Butts
youtu.be
Meh, if only it wasn't anti lolicon, the small girl will get zero fanservice while everyone's already drooling over the insane amount of lewd the mommy girl has gotten.
That single inferior trash shot is all we got of the blonde """main girl""", while the super sexualized black haired girl already blew up, no wonder with all those service shots. Another huge loss for lolicons, but expected from modern anime industry.
Dandadan season 2
City
Milky Subway
There might be a mineral bath scene, don’t lose all hope
Virgin Punk
CITY
Grand Blue S2
PSG S2
That’s less than usual.
12 sequels
very original season
Hard as a rock takes on a new meaning.
No matter what, the PV already showed the small girl gets no fanservice. And she isn't even young, just small.
This is modern anime. Meanwhile, S2 of little boy sexualization; the anime airing same season.
Anime's double standards are insane.
I don’t know anything about Takopi, but I like it’s style so I’m ready to go into it clean.
Shota shit ruins it. Another anti lolicon series.
Anon I get it you’ve been hurt by the drought, but you can’t view every anime through this lens, it won’t work out.
"Fate is partial to repetitions, variations symmetries" said Borges. Nothing says society won’t tolerate lolicon over time, especially with the gradual desensitization anime viewers are exposed to.
Cha0 also looks like it’ll be neat overall
Maybe their trying to fly like real turkeys, and that’s what it’s actually about
The hidden gem of Summer
looks like a good season for me
several new shows i want to check out and several sequels for series i liked
all in all, very excited
Livestreamers sent into a VR world
Oh boy, this will either be horrible from the get go or kind of fun, I’ll give it a look.
Dandadan S2
Kaiju 8 S2
Gachiakuta

Food Court
Onmyo
Necronomico
Are all ones I'll give a shot. Depending on Anon Babble threads I'll probably pick up more.
was sorairo utility good?
have had it stored since it aired
Forgot ONA/OVAs, I'm gonna watch Takopi and Milky Subway too.
Cute Girls Doing Golf Things. It's pretty enjoyable.
shoelacer series in the first row
most fantasy are non-isekai
in fact, there is only one title in the entire season
I can't believe the isekai fad is finally dying down.
Cute Girls Doing Golf Things.
pretty much what i expected, so that's good. is the animation quality alright?
The animation is pretty decent and I also thought the direction was pretty good too.
neat, will check it when im done with current show im watching.
thanks, anon.
The blonde bitch is hot.
Takopi is an OVA, right? If so, I hope it isn't censored. I could end up liking the anime more than the mango.
It's a charming series. I was kind of dubious at first but it ended up being my third favorite last season, and as the other anon said, the direction was surprisingly good with some moments in which it was really good.
clevates
hey i didn't know this was getting an anime, why didn't you tell me eh! fuck the anon that post the second comment after this one
