Your Spring 2024 Daily Streaming Reviews

Most of the important ones have made it in. The only one missing for me is Yatagarasu, which seems like a series with great potential and also perfect for reviews with plenty to talk about.

You've really gotta override these results in Yatagarasu. The best show this season not making it in because you ran the poll too soon is a travesty.

There's no official English simulcast for Girls Band Cry as of yet which is outright mind-boggling in this day in age.

Possibly I just sound like those people who are still made you don't cover Precure.

Yeah, this is the one I’m truly sad didn’t make the cut. I mean, I knew it was a long shot, but episode 2 really sealed the deal for me. I think it’s gonna be one of those few shows where they really regret not having reviewed it.

But I’m stoked that so many of my choices made the cut, especially Tonari no Yōkai-san!

I don't believe Blue Archive was licensed either, which is even more mind boggling considering how popular the mobile game seems to be.

All this buzz about Yatagarasu makes sound like something I need to check iut when I have some time. Dunno if I have it in me to do another period piece soon after Apothecary Dairies tho. Cause while I liked that and Raven of the Inner Palace, it's not setting I'm very big on in general..

It's a bit unfortunate, that a series, that premieres a few days later than the others, has only minimal chances to get weekly reviews. At least if it's not among the pre-season hyped up anime titles.

Not even a real criticsm of ANN. It's just bad timing and usually seems to affect only one show each season, that ends up falling through the cracks. It's simply a bit more frustrating this time, because it hit one of the most promising anime this season.

Whisper Me A Love Song is a non-sequel which had a similarly late debut this season but still made the cut. There were a couple of cases last year where shows were voted in despite not having debuted at the time of the vote (one was a much-hyped show, but one wasn't), so a late debut isn't necessarily a hindrance to getting coverage.

Since it's not getting weekly coverage, there's probably a very good chance that it will get a full review at the end of the season.

I'm honestly surprised Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Hashira Training Arc got voted in. I don't expect the structural/pacing problems with the anime to change this season, so I expect having it reviewed here is just going to result in the same cycle of James Beckett pointing out these issues and people getting mad at him for it.
