IMO it’s a little weird to fill a “best new anime” list almost half with returning anime. Like, they’re not wrong picks, but people are either already planning to watch them or they’re not caught up.
I think you’re confusing “new” with “original”. I think we can agree that new episodes = new anime.
It might be a countable/uncountable noun thing, lol. Like, I wouldn’t consider Dan Da Dan s2 to be “a new show” but i would consider it to be “some new animation”, if that makes sense. “Anime” can be used in either sense and since it doesn’t change when pluralized it can be hard to tell which someone means. At the same time, I stand by what I said that “[x show] is returning and it’s still very good” and “[y show] is new and it’s very good” are statements with fairly different target audiences.
Not necessarily, it’s possible it could be like The Seven Deadly Sins or One Punch Man… what, someone said The Promised Neverland? I thought it only has one season.
The Promised Neverland? I thought it only has one season.
It only has one season. It would really be a shame if they made a season 2 and ruined it right?

The list is pretty spot on but I would put Clevatess and There’s No Freaking Way I’ll Be Your Lover! Unless… on it in place of Gachiakuta and Leviathan
