Summer may be fading as the school season, colder weather, and pumpkin spice lattes start kicking in, but in the world of anime things are only heating up. And by heating up I mean boiling. From a relatively quiet and lean summer we’re entering a season of plenty, with no fewer than 57 shows looking to vye for eyeballs and attention both. Topping the autumn charts are numerous fan favourites, from the hotly anticipated return of isekai prodigy Re:Zero to the lesser alternate world adventures of SAO: Alternative, the dramatic soccer trials of Blue Lock and action fun of Dragon Ball DAIMA, and even the continuations of the epic Rurouni Kenshin, fantasy spelunking Danmachi, and Natsume Yuujinchou Shichi just to flesh out the procedings. Looking for new flames to further keep the days warm? Try out the sleek romcom Kimi wa Meido-sama, cyberpunk action-fantasy Maou 2099, techbro drama Trillion Game, or even the modern remake of romcom progenitor Ranma 1/2 for a bit of spice. In need of yet more on top? The lackadaisical fishing NegaPosi Angler, golf sweetheart Oi Tonbo, magical girl chique Mahoutsukai ni Narenakatta Onnanoko no Hanashi, and reincarnated villainess comedy Rekishi ni Nokoru Akujo ni Naru zo have you more than covered. And hey, if you still somehow have the time to indulge, don’t let the latest rounds of idol shenanigans in Love Live and Idolmaster, the quirky supernatural comedy Dandadan, or workplace romcom hilarity of Kekkon suru tte, Hontou desu ka pass you by.

The frost (and snow) may be nary a fortnight or two away, but anime is here to keep the warm and fuzzies for us going strong. This is Random Curiosity’s Fall 2024 Preview!
