Not everything is finished yet, but:

Astro Note: really fun and good vibes with a retro feeling style.
Konosuba S3: still one of the best comedies, even so much time later. Kazuma and party are still such a breath of fresh air.
Hibike Euphonium S3: really good. A shame that there isn't much playing shown, but the character drama is sooo good.
Jellyfish cant swim: pretty good. Nice and heartfelt.
Spice & Wolf remake: I think I might prefer the original, but this one's good too. I like the slight change in her voice and personality.
Mysterious Disappearances: I like this a lot. It's nothing special, but it just clicks with me.
Delicious in Dungeon: good fun and gripping when it got serious.
Yuru Camp: cute, but imo it's a step down from previous seasons. Just doesn't feel as comfy for me.
Gods Games We Play: dropped after 5 eps. It was really boring.
Kaiju No.8: it's fine. A lot of similarities with AoT, but not as good so far. Pretty standard battle shounen imo. Kafka may as well be a teenager. ED sucks ass.
Many Sides of VA Radio: I like this one. The 2 mains are fun together.
Date A Live V: it's fine. I like the premise and ideas a lot, but it executed pretty meh. At least this season is better than the previous 2 and is still fine when Kurumi is not in the ep. Music is still fire though.
Unnamed Memory: bad. Just bad. Started fine, then took a nosedive real hard halfway through, making it clear that the 1st half wasn't actually fine and that they skipped everything important.
Chillin' In Another World Lvl 2: good fun. Rys is fun.
An Archdemon's Dilemma: good fun as well. Would like to see more.

The season itself was fine overall. No large standout like last season with Frieren and Apothecary Diaries.

Might still pickup:

Wind breaker
Girls Band Cry (if I can find proper subs)..
Train to the end of the world

Spice & Wolf remake: I think I might prefer the original, but this one’s good too. I like the slight change in her voice and personality.

The new season is pretty good relative to the OG, but nothing can match the OP and ED music of the original.

Delicious in Dungeon: good fun and gripping when it got serious.

There's some very fine sakuga combat moments in there that seem like they're animated on the ones and will definitely be on someone's sizzle reel. Trigger ftw.

Unnamed Memory: bad. Just bad.

That prince was one-dimensional for an OP. His haranguing the witch got old quick.

Chillin’ In Another World Lvl 2: good fun. Rys is fun.

That was one of the most memorable moments of the season. Awesome pilot episode. Magic and combat and character-level-worldbuilding... Episode 2 starts where 1 left off... and then this bubble-gum saytang cutesy OP fires up, completely changing the tone of the show. Still enjoyed it. Rys is top 5 berstgirl of the season.

Agreed, especially the OP. The new one can't match the old OST either for me. Kevin writes some gorgeous stuff, but the old one fit better imo.

That's the least bad thing about the show imo haha, but yes.
