What Will You Be Watching?

This season I think The Shiunji Family Children and Kowloon Generic Romance have my attention the most.

I’ve read a couple chapters of The Shiunji Famiily Children since it’s by the same author of Rent-a-Girlfriend. His story writing might not be the best right now, however his art is objectively amazing. The trailer looks great, when I was reading the manga it was just published.

Kowloon Generic Romance is something I’ve talked about before. It’s an interesting mystery, sci-fi romance. The story is unique to romance, and I’m excited to see it animated.
