[Working for AniFem has forced me to actually keep up with a modern series or two instead of just watching things from the 90s. Who knew?]

Now we’ve reviewed all the Spring 2017 premieres, we thought we’d round up some of our favourites from shows that ended last season.

We talked about three kinds of recommendation:

• Feminist-friendly favourite (you would recommend it to a feminist friend with no caveats)
• Problematic favourite (you would only recommend it to a feminist friend with caveats)
• Surprise favourite (you expected it to have caveats, but actually would recommend it without)

Just so you know, every one of us would have picked Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju for the feminist-friendly favourite. (For those who loved it as much as we do, we highly recommend our own Dee’s insightful episode recaps for both seasons.) To give you a more diverse selection, I asked that only one person cover Rakugo and that the rest come up with other options – easily done, since we all had other anime from the season that we had loved.
