>>5779833I don't know. I think the anime industry just changed as a whole. You would see a lot more original works before. Now, it's mostly light novel adaptations made to essentially market the books. And there are even anime made now that are based on source material that is incomplete and went on hiatus years ago.
There is one anime airing this season called "The Faraway Paladin"/"Saihate no Paladin" that last had a novel released in 2017. There was another anime that aired last season called "The Idaten Deities Know Only Peace"/"Heion Sedai no Idaten-tachi" based on a webcomic by the same guy as Interspecies Reviewers. It started in 2008 and hasn't had any new material since 2016. I was fucking shocked when Idaten ended the season 11 episodes in on a cliffhanger big enough to blueball you. Then I found out the author never finished the arc and will probably NEVER finish the series.
I personally don't understand why we've gone from anime as advertisement to making anime adaptations about series that will never get a proper ending. I think at this point, there's just such a high demand for anime regardless of animation quality or the chance of ever seeing a proper ending to the anime, that anime studios are willing to animate anything, even never-completed works that can't make new sales for the source material just to keep the money coming in.
On the plus side, I have seen some pretty fluid animation this season. Just this week, a cute and wholesome show with a children's storybook aesthetic called "Ranking of Kings"/"Ou-sama ranking" had an excellent fight scene between a character and three manticores or lions. Naturally, there's "Demon Slayer"/"Kimetsu no Yaiba" which looks gorgeous. I think "Jobless Reincarnation"/"Mushoku Tensei" impressed me with its latest episode's animation too, where the main characters got their shit pushed in.
Komi-san can't communicate is also beautiful, especially its first episode and OP.
