<p>Apothecary Diaries, which had 24 episode instead of the 12 I had assumed it would get, which makes me happy. It apparently follows the LN more closely than either of the manga series (yes, it has two concurrently running mangas) that I've read, which fills in a few things that left me slightly puzzled. WOOT!</p>
<p>New shows for us Gentlemen of Culture with anime titties galore this season.
<br />
<b>Gushing Over Magical Girls</b> sees our protagonist be a little bondage queen villain who has some interesting ideas about what fighting magical girls entails. Utter trash and you know I'm gonna watch this one with glee.</p>
<p><b>Tales of Wedding Rings</b> is an isekai where the protag doesn't die, gets hooked with his childhood friend almost immediately, and can go home again. The story has some minorly interesting twists down the line, though I don't think the anime will get to that bit this season. By the team that brought us Dusk Maiden of Amnesia a few years ago.
<br />
Not quite as trashy as GOMG but still firmly in the guilty pleasure category.</p>
<p><b>Metallic Rouge</b>. Something something androids and mechs. I wasn't paying attention. Maybe I should rewatch the first episode. </p>
<p><b>Mato Seiehi no slave </b>. Guy makes a deal with a hot chick to fight monsters, gets kisses in return for turning into a slavering monster. Trash but probably not my type of trash.</p>
<p><b>Ishura</b>, isekai from the POV of a native sidekick. I might watch another episode.</p>New season and so far I've tried:

<p>More Ancient Magus' Bride, which is a good thing. </p>
<p>I don't know why <b>Apothecary Diaries</b> has such a late start (21/10, IIRC)but I am SO stoked for this one. Mao-mao is one of the most entertaining protags I've read about in a long time. Technically the show is a period court drama and mystery with some comedy, but that stuff is fairly mediocre. It's Mao-mao's personality and her interactions with Jinshi that make this story such a treat.</p>
<p>Frieren is a good one and has a pretty decent team behind the anime.</p>
<p>I forgot about the existence of the S-ranked daughter until you mentioned it, which should tell you about the impression it made.</p>

<p><b>My daughter became an S-Rank adventurer</b>; Not a bad start, central joke could get repetitive but 2nd episode starts introducing elements of a more serious plotline
<br />
<b>Frieren</b>: What happens after the adventure, follow the story of a High Elf mage retrace the path she and her friends followed decades ago. This is a pleasant if slightly melancholy watch
<br />
<b>Shy</b> Good start to a Superhero story about a young new hero fighting her own anxieties while saving others</p>
<p><b> let me read the walkthrough</b>....this was much more fun than I had expected, possibly because I had low expectations going it. CGI series about a woman in her 30s isekaied into a Game world after falling to her death. It's by Bilibili and I've enjoyed their stuff before, so I am probably going to stick with this.</p>Pile of new stuff with several that look pretty good. So far
