I've got way too many different anime that I started watching but just didn't bother keeping up with every week over the past few seasons, so I'm trying to be a bit more selective and not pick as much this season. Don't really see too much new stuff that stands out though, maybe one or two, so I might end up only finishing the sequels that are airing. The main sequels being:
Aoashi S2 - Ended up liking the first season a lot more than expected, recently read the manga, and while there were later parts that felt like they dragged on a bit too much, I very much liked this one, S1 was definitely my pick for football anime of the year over Blue Lock, which really didn't work for me when I first went into that.
Ao no Hako S2 - I've been keeping up with the manga since before S1 of the anime, so this one instantly went on my list as soon as it was announced. Bit curious about the studio that's listed on it though, I've never been one to really pay attention to the studio that worked on an anime (though I've learned with GoHands), but I'm not sure what expectations to have for "Electric Circus" who doesn't have any other anime listed on Anilist.
Koori no Jouheki S2 - Went into the first season blind, having considered reading the manga after I finished reading Seihantai na Kimi to Boku by the same author a few years ago, though I never got to it as it doesn't have an official English release. Very different from Polar Opposites, but they're both good in their own way.
Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita S2 - This is one of those "I guess I'll give this a shot" ones that turned out to be much better that expected, even ended up buying some of the novels after finishing the first season, so looking forward to seeing more of Sword Dad and Fran.
There are a few more sequels I'm watching as well, but not anything that really stands out that I'm guaranteed not to drop.
