This just makes me sad because I'm too old now. It's bad to judge a book by its cover, but they all just look so... Shonen. Teen highschool romance, teen battle anime, etc. I've become so jaded wrt all the teen protagonist Shonen tropes.

At least frieren is at the top ๐Ÿ˜Œ

  • #10 is Not Shonen

I'm older too, and don't enjoy cliched Shonen, school, romance. But there's a lot more than 10 titles per season it's just first week. I've already had more than 10 anime than I'm going to follow till next week at least.

To be clear, I'm ok with romance and even school romance to an extent (lovely complex was great). But almost everything that gets an anime with a budget is so formulaic.

I'll take a look at #10 thought, a few people have mentioned it's different. It's giving "I Reincarnated into an otome game as a Villainess With Only Destruction Flags"
