We are continuing to publish our spring 2023 anime guide. The second part of the material covers ten more noteworthy projects. Look for the first link…
The combatants will be expelled! / Sentouin, Hakenshimasu!
- Genre: Action, Fantasy
- Premiere: April 4, 2023
- Episodes: 12
- Studio: J.C. Staff
- Director: Hiroaki Akagi
- Source: Light novel
About what: Two operatives of a super-terrifying villainous organization set out to capture a new world for them. However, on the spot, an unexpected revelation falls on the “heroes” – their villains are abundant here, and everyday life is somewhat different from everything that they have seen before.
What we think: Another Isekai with a good dose of comedy. Everything is as always, except for the unlimited number of jokes.
Waiting rating: 2/5
Dragon in Search of Home / Dragon, Ie wo Kau.
- Genre: Action, Fantasy
- Premiere: April 4, 2023
- Episodes: 12
- Studio: Signal.MD
- Director: Haruki Kasugamori
- Source: Manga
About what: The unlucky dragon loses his home. Not knowing how to be a formidable monster, Letty is looking for a new place to live. As a result, a series of unexpected events brings the dragon with the elf Dearia, behind whose villainous appearance there is an interesting personality.
What we think: A fantasy tale about a shaky union of unlikely characters. You shouldn’t expect anything serious, but the title can cause a couple of sincere smiles.
Waiting rating: 2/5
Patriotism Moriarty 2 / Yuukoku no Moriarty – 2nd Cour
- Genre: Detective
- Premiere: April 4, 2023
- Episodes: 13
- Studio: Production I.G
- Director: Kazuya Nomura
- Source: Manga
About what: The second part of the Bisenen adventures of William Moriarty and Sherlock Holmes. Yes, the very characters invented by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. In general, classic detective stories, but with a touch of eroticism.
What we think: The second half of the season somehow sharply passed in terms of animation – the drawing became somewhat rough, and a lot of trash can be traced in dynamic scenes. With the narrative, it is also unclear – it seems that the authors are rather roughly cutting the original source.
Waiting rating: 2/5
Megalobox 2 / Nomad: Megalo Box 2
- Genre: Sports, Action
- Premiere: April 4, 2023
- Episodes: 13
- Studio: TMS Entertainment
- Director: Yo Moriyama
- Source: Manga
About what: The next chapter in the life story of the fighter Joe, who, after a crushing success, returns to the world of clandestine battles.
What we think: Beautiful animation, dark aesthetics and more brutal battles. Nice cocktail for fans of the genre.
Waiting rating: 4/5
Seven Knights Revolution: Eiyuu no Keishousha
- Genre: Action, Fantasy
- Premiere: April 5, 2023
- Episodes: unknown
- Studio: LIDENFIL
- Director: Kazuya Ichikawa
- Source: Game
About what: Adaptation of the mobile game of the same name, which tells the story of heroes using the power of mighty champions of the past in order to fight back the evil that threatens the whole world.
What we think: Almost traditional anime adaptation of a mid-level mobile project – crumpled narrative, formulaic characters and not the most beautiful picture.
Waiting rating: 1/5
I shaved. Then he brought home a high school student / Hige wo Soru. Soshite Joshikousei wo Hirou.
- Genre: Romance
- Premiere: April 5, 2023
- Episodes: 13
- Studio: Project No.9
- Director: Manabu Kamikita
- Source: Light novel
About what: The story of the strange relationship of a young guy Yoshida, who lets schoolgirl Sayu, who is literally without a roof over her head, into his home.
What we think: Not just romance, but a whole social drama. But judging by the plot of the original book, you shouldn’t expect any particularly terrible provocations from the title.
Waiting rating: 2/5
Fruits Basket: The Final
- Genre: Romance, Mystic, Drama
- Premiere: April 6, 2023
- Episodes: unknown
- Studio: TMS Entertainment
- Director: Yoshihide Ibata
- Source: Manga
About what: The final part of the new adaptation of “Basket” promises to put an end to the story of Tooru Honda, who found himself drawn into the difficult life of the Soma clan, whose members can transform into animals.
What we think: For fans – a touching farewell to their favorite characters. And everyone else should pay attention not to the previous episodes.
Waiting rating: 4/5
Mars Red
- Genre: Action
- Premiere: April 6, 2023
- Episodes: 13
- Studio: Signal.MD
- Director: Shinya Sadamitsu, Kohei Hatano

About what: An alternative history of the last century, in which vampires successfully coexist with humans. However, the shaky balance comes to an end when the number of bloodsuckers begins to increase dramatically. For this purpose, a special detachment appears, which will have to hunt monsters.
What we think: Vampires in an interesting setting are good. Visually, everything is also more than good, especially in terms of character design.
Waiting rating: 2/5
About my reincarnation as a slime. Tensura Nikki: Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken
- Genre: Fantasy, Everyday, Comedy
- Premiere: April 6, 2023
- Episodes: 12
- Studio: Eight Bit

About what: Slice-offshoot from the main Slime events. Instead of epic adventures, Rimuru does all sorts of cute and everyday things. Funny jokes are included.
What we think: Ideal for those looking for a sequel to Slime. A lot of cute scenes and situations with your favorite characters in the first roles.
Waiting rating: 4/5

Waiting rating: 2/5
