(Galactic Heroes arbitrarily nominated to be the show making room for double-length Astra 12 for the sake of concrete illustration, but equally Machikado Mazoku or O Maidens could fill that role)
Continuing:
* Action: Babylonia - 10 episodes next cour (accounting for episode 0)
* General 2/Sports: Chihayfuru - 13 episodes next cour

* Ore Monogatari (24)
* Ore Monogatari
** An unconventional romance, with lots of storytelling to do along the way, and some comedy moments. Though the subject matter is completely different, the viewing experience feels a bit like Shirayuki-hime - there is a continuity, but it's very episodic. --maxb

* Chihayafuru S2
** How many of us have seen S1? I support Chihayafuru as a great show, but feel that people watching S2 without having seen S1 would be missing out on a lot. --maxb
** I have not seen Chihayafuru and am unlikely to watch it in my own time. --YYY

* Akanesasu Shoujo
* Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba)
* Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba)
* Domestic Girlfriend
* Kobayashi-san's Dragon Maid 小林さんちのマイドラゴン
** A light-hearted series with an underlying theme of interpersonal relationships improving people's (and dragons') lives. Best last episode that I've seen for a long time. --maxb
 
=== Shows saved to revisit as backup options if needed ===


=== Proposals which have not been fully evaluated ===
* Non Non Biyori
** I enjoyed the first episode up to a point, but don't really feel the need to see more - it was somewhat amusing but ideally we'd find better things for the schedule --lmm
*** Oh, it's not your suggestion originally (as the wiki history would imply) ? --maxb
**** I suggested when we were brainstorming at dinner, on the grounds that CUAMS had watched it.
* Very much iyashikei but has some comedic moments. I loved it but I don't think it's everyone's cuppa. --YYY
** I have now finished both seasons. I can see why this could in some ways be considered the archetypal slice of life. Much verdant green landscapes and childhood antics. Very satisfying, in the sense of being the anime equivalent of a lazy weekend afternoon lying in the sun. --maxb
*** Chronology note: the second season actually occurs, in-universe, simultaneously/interleaved with the first season.
* I don't think Non Non Biyori should go in the comedy slot because half of the audience will be bored to tears. - YYY
** I feel that after two seasons of Rabbit, we're due a change of pace from "girls do everyday stuff in their picturesque town", but that Non Non Biyori could still be a good slot 5 in the future. --maxb
* New Game! (ニューゲーム Nyū Gēmu)
** I have no desire to watch this at this point in time. -YYY
** Seen, liked, would watch again. --maxb
** Watched one episode - seems fun, would watch more. - maria
** Watched at least one episode - willing to watch more - AIM
** There are now two seasons, but season 1 comfortably stands alone. Season 2 was a fun chance to revisit the characters, but would probably seem a bit same-y if watched consecutively with season 1. --maxb
* Ninja Girl and Samurai Master https://anilist.co/anime/21666/NobunaganoShinobi
** A comedy about a ninja girl serving Nobunaga - keeps the jokes flowing at a consistent pace, but not a serious historical show -- AIM
** Short episodes (50s opening, 2m40s content), but we can double up for each meeting
** These are *really* short episodes. We could fit 6 of them in a regular slot. But then we'd see the opening repeated 6 times within 24 minutes, which might drive us mad. I have my doubts that this can reasonably fit into our format in any way. --maxb
* Planet With (action)
** The giant cat doll creature overshadows everything else in the show with a sense of "what is this and why am I still bothering to watch it?" for me --maxb
* Sirius the Jaeger (action/fantasy)
* Fate/cooking (Emiya-san chi kyou no gohan)
* Fate/cooking (Emiya-san chi kyou no gohan)
** Semi-short, episodes are ~13 minutes each.

** Very little happens in this show, but it does so in a soothingly fun way, apt to leave a smile on your face. --maxb

* Cells at Work (Hataraku Saibou)
 
=== Proposals which have not been fully evaluated ===
* The Magnificent Kotobuki
* The Magnificent Kotobuki
* Run With the Wind 風が強く吹いている (sports) --lmm
** It may seem like some frivolous fun leaning on aerial combat scenes at first, but it's actually some some fair light sci-fi world building by the time it finishes up, too. --maxb
** I watched 1½ episodes, but I found watching 1 guy trying to force his desire to enter a team running race on 9 other guys who aren't interested to be rather awkward. --maxb
* Hugtto! PreCure (general) --lmm

** Enormous committment that will likely be pushed aside, but mentioning just in case
** Definitely the best PreCure that I have watched, outdoing HeartCatch, Suite, Yes! 5, Yes! 5 Go Go (I dropped that one). I'd be on board with watching this again. It wasn't perfect (I think they could have used a bit more budget in the middle of the third cour) but it was fun, endearing, and critically managed to avoid over-using the monster-of-the-week formula for most of its content, which is a pitfall many of the earlier PreCures have fallen into to various extents. Given the format of the show, it could actually work to decide to watch 1 cour and then reassess, if people are hesitant to sign up for the whole 49 episode run. --maxb

** Probably have to give up on this one, as no-one spoke up in favour beyond us two :-/

* Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai 青春ブタ野郎はバニーガール先輩の夢を見ない --maxb
** Because the continuation movie (Rascal Does Not Dream of a Dreaming Girl 青春ブタ野郎はゆめみる少女の夢を見ない) is now out, which continues the story directly, so we could continue straight to it at the end of the season.
*** Said movie doesn't seem to be available yet, it turns out, so might need to hold this one for another time.
* I wasn't very fond of this, at least as of the first few episodes - felt like it wasn't as clever as it thought it was, and leaned a little too much on sexualisation. Not a veto but I think we can do better. --lmm
* Fire Force (action) -- AIM
* Fire Force (action) -- AIM
* Love Death and Robots -- Dexsta
** I watched episode 1 - no strong opinions either way. Needs an action fan to opine. --maxb
** Tried first two episodes, rather strongly did not like. --maxb
* Kaguya-sama: Love is War season 2 (airs from April)
* Kono Oto Tomare
** I think we all liked season 1 -- maxb
** Sports/Drama about a music club, playing the Koto. Aired as split cours, but in reality is one continuous show. Exceptionally good, especially in how the characters interact with each other, slightly marred by rushed and clumsy pacing around the cour split. --maxb


=== Historical Fallbacks ===
See also: [[Animu/OldProposals]]
* Action
** Mirai Nikki
** Black Lagoon
** Hellsing Ultimate
*** Almost-veto from Mark, and awkward to fit into a schedule. (10 x double-length episodes)
* Comedy
** Natsu no Arashi
*** Old, and the animation style shows it. maxb and AIM unenthused for that reason.
* Uncategorized
** Ping Pong the Animation
*** Animation style is extremely polarizing. Some people would definitely be unhappy.
