might be garbage, still better than any other anime airing at summer :) except monogatari, which is a sequel, and a movie, not a TV anime.
Boku no Hero Academia, Re:creator, Knight's & Magic, Fate/Apocrypha, Symphogear AXZ, are all better than boruto

Ballroom 11th, Made in Abyss 17th, Altair 18th and you have lots of random slice of life before them. :(
I read Ballroom it's probably one of the better manga I've ever read, Altair is renowned etc... , no one enquire about what seems good or not ? :/

@Katsu-kun
It shows the correct PV for me.
It happens sometimes that PV would show the wrong one even though the bbcode is correct. The second time you load will be showing the correct video.
That's odd. Never mind then.

Now, on to the topic. Spring is (was) such a strong season so looking at this list, it does feel a bit underwhelming but I don't think this is going to be a disappointing season.
Shows I'm looking forward to
-Owarimonogatari 2nd Season (It'd be a crime against humanity if you skip this shit)
-New Game 2nd Season (Big fan of the series so I'm excited for this one)
-Katsugeki/Touken Ranbu (It's by ufotable. 'Nuff said)
-Kakegurui (Damn, Mystery and Psychological? Potential Anime of the Season right here folks)
-Fate/Apocrypha (Do I even need to explain?)
Shows I'm willing to give a try
-Youkoso Jitsuryoku (Potential Romance Anime of the Season?)
-Isekai Shokudou (Looks fun...I'm going to give this a try)
-Made in Abyss (Look at them cartoonish style...Looks interesting. Also, someone told me that it's going to turn dark)
Thank God, there's two 2 cour series that I'm watching or else this would have become one of the weakest seasons ever.

On a more positive note I am looking forward too the following shows the most.
-Kakegurui - I loved Kaiji and you don't see a lot of gambling anime nowadays.
-Fate/Apocrypha - Could be anything from bad to great but I like Fate so the name itself makes it worth giving a shot.
-Touken Ranbu - I love my sword fights and Ufotable shows always look good. I just hope it turns out better than Tales of Zestiria though. The ending episodes of that show were god awful.
-Made in Abyss - This is my dark horse. Looks deceivingly like a kids show but I get the feeling this show will feed the sense of wonder and be a lot more fun than it looks.
I am trying out more than this but these are the ones that stand out to me the most. There are also a lot more leftovers than usual of which Boku no Hero, Shingeki no Bahamut, and Re: Creators are all fantastic imo. So I predict this Summer season will at least be good but maybe not as good as this Spring season.

Worst anime season in maybe... ever. Not gonna watch anything, except boruto which will continue from this season... sad.
What a garbage season. Other than monogatari and 1 or 2 more, everything is awful.
Straight ignorance at its finest. Say that after you watch their first episodes.
I'm always right when judging stuff before I watch them, and I will trust myself this time too, rather than waste my time.

boku no overrated generic shounen, and another shitty fate is not even close to boruto
