I spent a lot of time on trains this past week and decided to go fishing for some new series to pick up. Here are some that I found with a quick impression:

It’s Not like I Like Haruno-san at All! - Really cute series with short chapters about an OL getting flustered around her cool senpai at work.

Am I Actually the Strongest? - Pure isekai slop with a decent injection of magical girl shenanigans introduced through the little sister character. You probably already have a good guess whether you will like it or not just based on that.

The Demon King’s Daughter Wants to Marry the Hero in a Political Marriage - The daughter of the demon king marries the human hero as a way to broker peace. She seems to genuinely loves him (due to backstory reasons we haven’t fully seen yet), but can she make him fall for her? Or, will the couple get broken up by the political forces at work in the human world? Think romance mixed with political drama in a fantasy setting.

The Oppressed Princess Was a Reincarnated Legendary Magician - The greatest witch of all time gets reincarnated as a princess that was discarded due to her lack of magic. She then heads out to live her life freely…but keeps getting sucked back into the world of royals.

Cat Magic Is Going to Revolutionize the World, Right? - This series just wrapped up after getting axed, but it was fun while it lasted. Think a pretty generic fantasy setting, but all of the main character’s magic is based on the different behaviors of cats.

Stomping on the Blue - This one is a romcom for the subscribers of !animefeet@ani.social - so be forewarned that this one is for the foot lovers.

I probably won’t continue most of these (decided not to continue with some of them already), but it was fun to blast through the first volume or so of a bunch of series to kind of shake things up a bit.
