It's absence is disappointing, and seeing so much generic crap in its place is, frankly, horrifying.


try watching the top one in the ranking this season: Rakugo shinjuu. it is great and not generic at all

I wouldn't call LWA crap, but I would definitely call it generic. Rakugo, ACCA, March and Onihei are all far less generic than it.

...Gintama, Konosuba, Blue Exorcist, Gabriel DropOut, Tales of Zestiria, Naruto Shippuden, Dragonball Super, Fuuka, etc. are all pretty damn generic and overall of pretty average (at best) quality.

It's on my list. I've heard good things. (Youjo Senki, too).

My comment was dismissing all of that list as crap... just that there's a lot of crap on it, which feels out of place when we've got a some genuinely fantastic stuff airing this season, too, like LWA.

The *premise* is generic. But the animation? Hell no. The writing? Hell no. This is a top-tier animation no matter how you look at it. Seeing mediocre shit like Dragonball Super on that list but not Little Witch Academia is kind of a slap in the face.

Well, take it up with Netflix then. They're the ones making it unavailable for legal streaming (and therefore ineligible for this list) until the season ends.
