Today is the first the of the new season, and I already miss the summer. There is something about feeling the sun on your skin and the taste of ice-cream that makes people love the season. Yet, fall has its charms. We are steadily heading into winter and nature will start taking that gentle auburn color that characterizes the season. Another thing that characterizes each season is that we have loads of new anime starting! Fall 2018 has some favorites shows coming back and a few leftovers that we are glad they get to stay, and we are here with our customary list with all the info you need on all the new titles! The Fall 2018 season has more than 60 anime with 4 of them continuing from Summer 2018:
- Captain Tsubasa: The New Series
- Chuukan Kanriroku Tonegawa (Mr. Tonegawa Middle Management Blues)
- Banana Fish
- Shingeki no Kyojin (Attack on Titan) Season 3
Fall 2018 is also the much-anticipated return of Tokyo Ghoul:re, Sword Art Online! and To Aru Majutsu no Index!
Even with the fan favorites in the mix, there are so many anime and we only have so much time. Sometimes it is hard to follow with even a few of the season’s titles. The best way to get that extra bit of obscure otaku knowledge about each season’s anime is to visit the official sites, or even better, follow the official hashtags and Twitter pages! Twitter is the anime industry’s Social Media of choice when it comes to sharing the latest info, and we want you to be the first in the know in the otaku world!

On top of that, Suzuka asks me to debut as the light novel author, because she doesn’t know anything about light novels and moe!? The published light novel also ends up becoming a record-breaking bestseller. Beautiful female fans of me (my sister), light novel authors and illustrators start gathering…
Suzuka also says she wants to date someone as part of her research for another novel. Please don’t get me wrong, the sister I like is not the one in front of me but the ’sister’ she created for her novel.
A romantic comedy about the clumsy romance of this brother-sister pair will start airing soon!
