Now that every show has had a few episodes to make its case, it’s time to tell you what we’ll be blogging this season. This is Random Curiosity’s Spring 2020 blogging schedule.

As always, this is a tentative overview of our plans for the new season . . . is what we usually say, but this season, unfortunately, is a little different.

Fruits Basket 2nd Season – 01

「お久しぶりです」 (Ohisashiburi Desu)
“Long Time No See”

A new season of Fruits Basket means another season of emotions.

Appare-Ranman! – 01

「晴れ、ときどき小雨」 (Hare, Tokidoki Kosame)
“Sunny, with Occasional Showers”

“Hey, don’t worry. I’ll be back in no time.”

Spoiler alert: he wasn’t.

Fugou Keiji Balance: Unlimited – 01

「来た、見た、買った」 (Kita, mita, katta)
“I Came, I Saw, I Bought”

That was certainly an odd piece of work.

「Runaway Raccoon」

“Ain’t no thing like me, except me!”

Get towed by the worms, Weird fishes.

Listeners – 01

「リヴ・フォーエヴァー」 (Rivu fōevuā)
“Live Forever”

Recalls many others of its kind but has a spark that I just can’t put my finger on.

Guardian Enzo April 6, 2020 April 6, 2020 First Impressions / Series Introduction / Snapshots

Arte – 01

「弟子入り志願」 (Deshiiri shigan)
“I Want to be an Apprentice”

The hope of this anime season lies in the spate of seinen manga adaptations on the schedule.

Honzuki no Gekokujou – 15

「神殿の巫女見習い」 (Shinden no Miko Minarai)

Blasting right off from where last season left off, Honzuki wastes no time in getting us right back into the swing of things with some classic Main antics.
