It’s that point once more—the one the place I’m going, “What the hell, there’s a brand new anime season out?!” However Fall 2026 feels additional particular within the sense that it’s chock stuffed with big robots. Not solely is there a brand new Magic Rayearth, but additionally Good Smile’s new venture Dandivine, Darkish Machine, and no matter Vertex Drive is. I’m not going to say any of them will essentially be good (except for Rayearth), however I actually need to test all of them out. On prime of that, we nonetheless have Oshii Mamoru’s new VOTOMS ready within the wings, and the director of Godzilla Minus One apparently has a mecha-genre movie due out in January.
I don’t know if this can be a brand new golden age or something, however I’m hoping that no less than one of many new unique works reveals promise. It’ll even be enjoyable to see if any of them get into Tremendous Robotic Wars sometime.

Closing
As a result of a lot of September was dedicated to writing concerning the stuff I attended in August, it ended up being a really VTuber-heavy month as effectively. I feel October can have extra anime and manga critiques (in addition to hopefully my second and remaining interview from Otakon 2026), so I anticipate the stability to not be so lopsided.
That every one stated, it’s been a wild time in that respect. Between Terra404’s and Amano Nene’s graduations, a brand new hololive unit, IRyS solo dwell, and the return of Saba, I’m having all kinds of emotions. So, actually, who is aware of?
