I am really looking forward to this coming summer anime season and I really cannot wait for some of the series to return, especially as we’ve had to wait an extra long time for a few which should have been released this spring, but were delayed due to all the lockdowns in place. I have always loved the Sword Art Online series and the Alicization arc has been the best of all of the series so far. RE Zero is another one I am really looking forward to picking up again as it’s definitely one of my favourite Isekai anime.
