At this point in time, the Spring seasonal shows have mostly either wrapped up or are airing their finale this week. So, I wanted to hear your thoughts on shows you watched this season. Shows you liked, disliked, were surprised by, disappointed by? Let those opinions rip!

The dark horse / anime of the season for me is My Ribdiculous Reincarnation.
Not gonna lie, my expectations were tempered due to My Deer Friend Nokotan. I was half expecting it to catch some initial attention by being quirky, then fall off by having one-note comedy / plot.
Thankfully, even if a particular reincarnation episode didn’t hit the spot, its creative use of media still managed to keep things interesting.
One thing that surprised me positively is the plot. There is actually an overarching plot, so it’s not just episodic nonsense.
And speaking of plot, there’s one particular episode that stood out in terms of story / story-telling. Fellow viewers should know which one I’m talking about: the curry plate one.
All these factors led to it exceeding my expectations, making it my AOTS.
