Seijou no Maryouku, Tokyo Revengers, Full Dive dropped:

Next week a new episode of Edens Zero will be airing, so it's time to clear out the trash.  Seijou no Maryouku is a shoujo series about men riding white horses and the like nonsense.  I don't have time for her wish fulfillment life.  Full Dive can't escape the basic fact that no one would play it given the pain feedback and degree of difficulty, so the guy should've instantly quit the game in episode 2 and never looked back.  Yes, it's funny, but it isn't reasonable so it doesn't work.  In Tokyo Revengers, the time traveler is so incompetent that he can't come up with any plan better than getting into lots of unwinnable fist fights.  A time traveler.  Can't come up with a plan.

Here's a plan -- find a place and time your enemy will definitely be, and set a bomb up ahead of time to blow up at that exact time and place.  Done.  Enemy down.

Or drive a car at full speed into him at that place and time.

Or blow up the guy's house when he's asleep after learning of where a bomb can be found via records from the future.

Or get a gun based on records of where a gun was twelve years ago and shoot the guy with it.

Or burn the guy's house down while he's asleep by learning of his address via the future.

OR ANYTHING.  YOU'RE A TIME TRAVELER YOU CAN'T LOSE A FIGHT YOU HAVE GOD MODE ON YOUR SIDE.

I refuse to watch a time traveler lose at anything.  Only an inconceivably stupid person loses with the power of time travel.  It's too loathsome to watch a loser lose that badly.

That leaves the spring watch schedule looking like this:

1.  Edens Zero
2.  Tropical Rouge Precure
3.  Battle Athletes Restart
4.  Slime Taoshite 300-nen
5.  Kumo desu ga, nani ka?
6.  Boku no Hero Academia S5
7.  Shadows House
8.  Combatants will be dispatched
9.  86
10.  Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken Remake
