Now that the dust has finally settled on the Spring 2026 anime season, the crew is revisiting our original watchlist predictions to hand out our final, unfiltered verdicts! Did our sleeper picks turn…
The spring one that was kind of out of the way for me, more of the rom-com side.
And I only went this way because I think in the winter, You and I Are Polar Opposites came out, and I really liked that one.
And it kind of got me into it.
Hey, you know, I don't have to be watching some serious shit all the time.
Just turn something on while I'm doing something or just something lighthearted.
I don't have to take it too seriously to follow along, but...
Very good rom-com if you're looking for one.
The one that came up for me was Mistress Kanan is Devastately Easy.
I gave kind of a synopsis of it last time around, but now that it's over, I think it was 12 episodes.
Yep, 12 episodes.
And...
From what I've read is that the 12 episodes that it's covered is trying to cover like 54 kind of chapters of the manga.
So you're going about four and a half chapters per episode.
Whoa.
Which is fine because the manga kind of drags out a lot of the... slice of life portion of it.
So it's almost kind of a cliff notes version of the manga if you're watching the anime.
And it focuses more on the interactions of the characters rather than just backstory of one character that draws on a little too long.
So there wasn't a lot of I would say, angst or anything when it came to the pacing.
Nobody was upset that they were breezing through this portion of the manga that fast.
But overall, You know, on my anime list, it got 7.4 out of 10.
So, you know, the consensus is a massive fan favorite for rom-com and ecchi enthusiasts.
Viewers have heavily praised the relentless comedic timing, which I do agree.
