What Are You Excited For?
Personally, I’m really excited about Gigguk’s upcoming anime project. I’ve followed his YouTube content and podcast for years, and even though he often jokes about not watching much anime these days, I believe his unique voice and humor could translate into a truly compelling project. He’s been a part of the anime community for a long time, and that passion shows.
I’m also looking forward to Mushoku Tensei Season 3. Despite its controversies, it remains my favorite isekai. The story’s depth and character development are genuinely top-tier.
