I choose not to believe the new Code Geass is canon:

Code Geass had a perfectly good ending.  In the ending, all issues were resolved and the world was destined for peace and happiness for all.  Also, Lelouch died.  Anything that goes against these two events isn't canon.

The new season has a ridiculous premise, that somehow Brittannia returns and starts abusing Japan again, and a new group of heroic geass users alongside scrappy terrorists have to overthrow Brittannia again, because the World Federation with all of its powerful mecha and bombs etc. have been rendered useless due to a force field.  (That was somehow invented in three years by this tiny splinter Brittannia force despite the two gigantic world size powers facing off against each other three years ago not having this invention).

So basically it resets the entire world and then boringly copies the premise of the first story, much like The Force Awakens, another dumb ripoff that isn't canon.  I watched the new Star Wars trilogy because it was Star Wars, and I'll watch this new Code Geass because it's Code Geass, but I've already lost all hope for it.

Meanwhile, a new manga became available, the Oreimo Ayase IF story.  It's okay with a few hilarious moments mixed in.  I guess Oreimo was always a comedy at root.  Also, Spy x Family S2 came out in bluray, and a bluray of reasonable filesize, which is the kind of bluray I like.

Henjin Salad Bowl had a great ending, it was consistently great whenever it concentrated on Sara, and mediocre when concentrating on Livia, averaging out at just good.

I'm reading another filler spinoff of a great work, To Aru Kagaku no Railgun.  It's written by the original author but is meant as a zany nonsense joke, about a duel between Misaka and Misaki.  It's hard to get enthusiastic about it when it isn't real.  For that matter Oreimo Ayase IF is another filler spinoff that isn't real, but is still by the original author.  Is that a thing these days?  But I figure my love for Mikoto should be enough to keep me interested even in nonsense filler stories about her.

I have a faint hope that Spice & Wolf will stop being a pointless repeat of the anime that has already aired and will now cover new ground.  If it's going to happen it would be at the end of the summer cour though, not the beginning.  *sigh*  Similarly, I hope someday the remake of Rurouni Kenshin will actually cover new ground, but even if that's the case it won't be during next season.

Anime, manga and books don't have to be pointless filler and remakes.  There's so much great material they could be adapting instead.  But in a couple weeks all this nonsense will be replaced with genuinely new good real Fairy Tail and Bakemonogatari.  I'm so eager for July.
