The Worst Anime of Spring 2024

So…

Not one, but TWO of the reviewers said Girls Band Cry, for the fact it wasn’t licensed outside of Japan…

I think they forgot what the word WORST means…

Maybe in their thoughts, it was the worst because it limited people from seeing the series altogether, and that I can somewhat understand (To Love Ru OVA’s…), but… Isn’t it supposed to be an article about the worst series of the season, not the most disappointing part of the licensing?

And on that note…

Demon Slayer sure has fallen… Right after a character Yami voices is introduced…

New Gate, Highspeed Etolie, and Unnamed Memory are on the list, and that’s something I wholeheartedly agree with…

Not a single person selected The Banished Former Hero Lives As He Pleases

One of those reviewers said, “Whoever Fumbled the Bag on Girls Band Cry” and didn’t name the anime as the worst. But I know what you mean.

This Week in Anime - How to Watch Anime on a Budget

by Christopher Farris & Lucas DeRuyter, Jun 25th 2024

Seriously, While this is a weak arc, The Hashira training arc is supposed to flesh out said Hashira’s characters before anything bad happens to them, so we actually care what happens to them, when it happens.
