The Spring season is wrapping up at this point and the first Summer shows are just about to start. 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!

Like always, this thread can also be used for general discussions, recommendations, and questions. So, if you haven’t been watching any seasonal shows, we can talk about that too!

As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).

Spring season wrap up:

mono: A nice slice of life/iyashikei anime. Pretty ambitious debut by studio Soigne. I love how much they mess with the camera perspective. As a sol anime, there were a lot of room to make it more engaging. At times can feel like an advertisement for the places they went to.
Hibi wa Sugiredo Meshi Umashi: Another slice of life/iyashikei anime on my watch list. Simple and sweet. A little more relatable than mono but less interesting in the animation department.
Rock is a Lady's Modesty: Interesting premise with interesting music, though not much in the execution. The animation was pretty standard. The story was okay.
Witch Watch: Okay as an adaptation. Its animation only slightly above standard.
Apocalypse Hotel: A fun original. The animation was great. Couldn't predict what would happen each episode. Really sweet and funny at times, hit hard in the feel at other times. I thoroughly enjoy each episode. Would be my AOTS if not for CinGray.
Umamusume: Cinderella Gray: Hype Machine! My biggest surprise this season. Didn't know much about Umamusume before this, but Oguri's journey quickly make me invested. Each race was beautifully crafted to make it as hype as possible. I wasn't a sport anime fan before this, but now I can't stop rooting for Oguri in each race. The emotional stake and the drama was just top this, especially during the finale. Also, Fujimasa March, my beloved, her alone make it worth to watch.
