Continuing my status update on currently airing anime from last week:

Dropped

Even Given the Worthless “Appraiser” Class, I’m Actually the Strongest - There's nothing setting it apart from the numerous fantasy anime, so there's no point watching it.

Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective - I gave it one more episode. It annoyed me when other characters are dumb in order to make the protagonist look smart. It also has a few other flaws reminiscent of Ron Kamonohashi's Forbidden Deductions. In a nutshell, it's not a very good show, so I'm out.

I'm Getting Married to a Girl I Hate in My Class - I got tired of the main duo's bakaple (bacouple?) antics halfway through the second episode.

Continuing

The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World - This is the weakest adaption out of those that I'm familiar with this season. I'm giving it one more episode, but I don't have high hopes for it.

I Left My A-Rank Party to Help My Former Students Reach the Dungeon Depths! - I have forgotten how much of a power fantasy this one was (and yes, harem and revenge are power fantasies too). I'm going to turn my brain off to this one until I am bored of it, or until it ends.

From Bureaucrat to Villainess: Dad's Been Reincarnated! - This has the funniest first episode out of all the seasonal isekai anime I am watching. If the comedy keeps up, I will likely be completing it.

I'm Living With a Otaku NEET Kunoichi?! - I'm surprised that I'm still entertained by this show. I will still be watching it till I get bored of it.

I May Be a Guild Receptionist, but I’ll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time - It's been a decent adaptation so far (of the manga at least; I have not read the novel).

Zenshu - The action scenes are very flashy, which is nice.

SAKAMOTO DAYS - It is looking good and on track to be among my top anime of the season. Having said that, it's a bit too shounen-y for my taste at the moment. If it remains this way, it would end up being a 9 / 10 for me by the end of the season.

The Apothecary Diaries Season 2 - It's been a nice first episode, laying the groundwork for the rest of the show. The only disappointing thing for me is the opening song, which doesn't sound as good as I thought it would. As I've mentioned previously, I'd likely binge it towards the end of the season because I dislike being kept in suspense (even though I have already read ahead of the manga).

The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You Season 2 - This first episode has been a perfect adaptation. The soundtracks, especially the spoof of Zenzenzense, fit the mood and adds to the humour. I'd like to think that the voice actresses had fun doing their takes on other characters for this episode. IMO the best part is how well the anime adapted the humour to this medium. My only complaint is that the opening and ending songs sound kinda lackluster compared to the ones from the first season, but that's probably because my expectation was too high. I hope it maintains this level of quality for the rest of the season.
