Think Winter 2024 Anime Season Is Uninteresting? You Couldn't Be More Wrong

Think Winter 2024 Anime Season Is Uninteresting? You Couldn't Be More Wrong

No, and people shouldn’t expect every season to have an anime as big as JJK.

Summary:

  • Some fans feel that the Winter 2024 season has been underwhelming.
  • There are series like Frieren and Solo Leveling, as well as great sequels like The Dangers in My Heart.
  • There are also many niche series for lovers of certain genres.

As the Winter 2024 anime season is coming to an end, many fans are starting to feel that it has been somewhat underwhelming. The biggest anime of the season are The Apothecary Diaries (Kusuriya no Hitorigoto) and Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End (Sousou no Frieren), both of which started last season.

There are also Solo Leveling (Ore dake Level Up na Ken) and Delicious in Dungeon (Dungeon Meshi), which are fairly successful new series that adapt much older source material. Outside of that, though, many can hardly name a notable series — and so, they feel the season has actually been uninteresting.

The season has plenty of interesting sequels

Yes, there may not be any hits on the level of Jujutsu Kaisen or Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba). There’s not even anything as popular as Frieren, really — but that doesn’t mean the season doesn’t have notable series.

There are many very good sequels airing right now that made fans of the original very happy. Blue Exorcist (Ao no Exorcist) finally returned for a third season, and seems to be getting better despite a rocky start.

The Dangers in My Heart (Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu) has established itself as one of the best modern romcoms with its amazing second season.

There are many cool new series even outside of sequels

There are many solid non-sequels even outside of Solo Leveling and Delicious in Dungeon. A Sign of Affection (Yubisaki to Renren) is a wholesome shoujo romance with a very unusual premise — you should give it a try even if you aren’t a fan of the genre.

Gushing over Magical Girls (Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete) is somewhat niche, but ecchi fans absolutely love it.The Witch and the Beast (Majo to Yajuu) has very cool worldbuilding and interesting protagonists.

If you want something more complex, there’s Metallic Rouge — which is somewhat hard to get into, but at least it looks very cool. There’s also Ishura, which takes a long time to introduce all the characters, but once it does, the payoff is incredible.

No, the season is not uninteresting

Overall, yes, Winter 2024 doesn’t have one series that is as big as Jujutsu Kaisen was last year. That said, Solo Leveling is still very popular, and carryovers like Frieren also help.

There are also many sequels and niche shows for fans of specific genres — you can definitely find something you’d like if you try
