If it weren’t for a friend telling me I wouldn’t have known since Firefox never did notify me that an update was available.

With a little less than a month left until the official start of the spring season, I felt it was time to finally compile my anime watch list. Compared to this season it looks like I will be viewing more new anime but that won’t be a problem since several series from the fall and winter seasons that I am keeping track of will end in the following weeks. Anyways, onto my choices:
