On forums and social networks in Japan, Internet
users have begun to express their concern and discontent over
the apparent lack of interesting anime premieres for the upcoming Summer-2024 season
, which runs from July to September. With the exception of the long-awaited
second season of “Oshi no Ko,” fans have noted that the rest of the premieres
do not look promising.
One of the main reasons behind this
negative perception is the overproduction of anime. Every
season, animation studios release a large number of new series, which has led
to market saturation. Although this might seem positive at first glance, many
fans feel that the quality of the stories and originality are declining.
Another point of debate is the constant
recycling of certain themes, which has led to monotony in new productions. Genres
such as isekai (stories of characters that are transported to parallel worlds),
romantic comedies and various shonen plots (series aimed at a young male audience)
are repeated season after season. Internet users comment that many of these
series follow already established formulas, without providing significant new
features that capture the public's interest.
The lack of interesting releases also
reflects a major challenge for the anime industry. The
need to innovate and diversify stories is crucial to maintaining public
interest and ensuring the future of this medium. The discussion among netizens
could serve as a wake-up call for anime creators and producers, urging them to
explore new ideas and break away from repetitive formulas.
