I’m digging Gundam GQX too. It’s so weird seeing such an alternate story branching away from the original. I’m also liking how much it leans into the psychic stuff that is usually in the background of other parts of the series. Looking forward to how things unfold.

I don’t dislike anime, I just don’t watch much/know about much, so I’m not sure if this counts as good for someone who dislikes it, but…
I’ve been watching One Piece with my son and love the silliness of it.
Long way to go to catch up though… he’s on episode 560-something and I’m on 14 (though I did watch all of the live-action first)
I see someone mentioned One Piece in this thread a couple of years ago. Still going; seems eternal.

There are a buch of shows releasing soon. I just watched the first episode of “Detectives These Days Are Crazy!” and it’s worth a laugh or two. I watched it on 1x speed which means the tempo is ok. They have some good gags on anime stereotypes and seems to have aimed right in terms of ambition/effort, it’s simple but not cheap. It would be nice to hear some opinions on the new shows as they release.
I loved Frieren, it was moving in a way I absolutely did not expect. The rest of these are on my watch list!
I recently finished Gundam: Witch from Mercury. It started a bit slow, and the school bits almost put me off, but once it got going I was absolutely hooked. Lovely cast of characters, conspiracy-laden plot, cool robot fights. I loved the world building, politics, intrigue, and really hope they do a sequel.
