This season's premieres I've already checked out and gonna keep watching for now:

Yano-kun's Ordinary Days was on my radar and it's a pretty looking show, but so far it lacks any charm. I'll give it two more episodes to see how the romance develops.
This Monster Wants to Eat Me - same thing.
Towa no Yuugure - Episode 0 almost made me drop it, but the first one had an interesting worldbuilding. However, androids are not my thing, especially when the romance plotline is present, so I doubt I'll finish the show.
Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! - surprisingly fun due to both leads being enthusiastic about their special interests and having a great chemistry.
Shabake - was looking forward to it, but found the premiere quite bland. Hope it improves further on.
Sanda - Paru Itagaki, never stop being the woman that you are. The artstyle and Science Saru's animation look super fun.
May I Ask for One Final Thing? - while I can see the allure of a strong woman beating the shit out of bullies and aristocrats, I haven't found the double episodes premiere particularly exciting.
To Your Eternity Season 3 - I might be among those rare people, who enjoyed season 2 more than season 1, so I'm kinda excited to see what's next. Also, "Fumetsu no Anata" by Perfume is the first OP of the season I liked (I feel like this season will be quite scarce in the theme department for me).
Kakuriyo Season 2 and Kingdom Season 6 were among my most anticipated titles of fall 2025. The premiere wasn't impressive, but both started strong. Same with the continuation of Ranma, Cinderella Gray and SxF.

I just cannot watch Yano-kun take so much injury. It feels like it's too much, lol. It's not charming, it's sad and maybe he's got a disability or something, clearly taking a lot of blows to the head.
