Everyone was busy with holiday jubilation, but we all still put in the time and we’re only a little horrendously late, which is mostly my fault I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m so sorry. Let me once again take this time to thank the entire Random Curiosity staff for banding together to finish this preview. Please check out MOON PHASE for complete listings, syoboi for specific air times, and Fansub DB for a list of potential sources for each series. It is meant to be as comprehensive as possible, but omissions have been made for shows that stray from the anime norm or seem to be oriented toward young children.

We will try to point out what appeals to us in each series, in the hope it will help you determine if it coincides with your tastes.ĭisclaimer #2: Please note that this list does not reflect all the series airing this coming season. But the RandomC preview is a hefty undertaking, so we’ve divided it up among our staff staff (Choya, Guardian Enzo, Pancakes, Passerby, Stilts (that’s me!), Takaii, Zaiden, and Zephyr) in order to maintain the quality of this preview. For more information, check out the Overall Impressions section at the bottom, which includes an expanded explanation of each category and a list of all shows by excitement level.ĭisclaimer: Back in ye olde year of 2012, when yours truly was but a boy, previews were done by a single writer, Divine. You know how this works by now, right? Every new anime is a tangle of hype, and rather than pretend to objectively prognosticate, we’re going to embrace the spin and give you our visceral gut reactions instead. This season we’ll continue using the Excitement Levels we introduced a while back.

This is Random Curiosity’s Winter 2019 Preview.Īs a quick reminder, most entries are divided into two paragraphs:
There’s something for everyone, or at least I hope.
There are even a few originals to round out the crew, such as the Netflix sci-fi series Revisions, the fluffy hero slice-of-life Endro~!, and the Girls und Panzer of the air in Kouya no Kotobuki Hikoutai. Among the adaptations a lot of us are looking at the isekai stylings of Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari, the love competition of Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Tensai-tachi no Ren’ai Zunousen, and the dramatic orphan danger of Yakusoku no Neverland. Oh, and Kemono Friends 2, with all new staff. Of course there are glorious sequels aplenty, including the inventive and nuanced Mob Psycho 100 II, another season of the gambling addict’s worst nightmare Kakegurui ××, and the kissing-girls-to-save-the-world antics of Date A Live III. Winter is a time for renewal(?), which is why several venerated franchises are getting new iterations to start off 2019, including the spooky urban legend Boogiepop wa Warawanai and the Tezuka Osamu manga Dororo. The weather outside is frightful, and-oh, enough with the lame lines, there’s seasonally appropriate beverages to consume and this post is overdue anyway.
