Im sure my blurbs about the series are not necessary here and the people in this thread are likely to be in the loop and at least probably have heard the basic premise, but I already typed this all out so oh well.

I've seen all the anime you mentioned at least. Odd taxi was good, I just hated the very last scene which is cleared up in the movie version not yet released in the US. Other than that and a few minor plotholes, odd taxi was very clever in a way most anime aren't and it's dialogue seemed a lot more genuine japanese than anime japanese, at least compared to something similar like durarara which you may also enjoy, although it's a lot more "anime" for lack of a better term. It too does the modern tokyo following several different characters or groups that all collide into one story eventually. I would be very surprised if it wasn't listed as an inspiration for odd taxi.

Dr. Stone is pretty great, although I feel like the first season was a fair bit better. The gimmick of minecrafting your way up to modern tech does eventually wear a bit thin and they focus more on the characters as the story goes on instead, which isn't bad, just not as exciting as the earlier inventions, at least for me.

Spy x Family is great and I don't think theres any reason to wait for another season. Whilst there is a plot that progresses, it's still largely episodic so you aren't left on a cliff hanger or anything when the first season ends.

lastly, v annoyed at the Season 4 Part 3 reveal for Attack on Titan. Still one of my favorite series, but this last season has basically been three seasons lol

Yeah it's ridiculous. Final season part 3. Like wtf, that means part 1 and 2 just weren't the final season. Anime industry been getting real annoying about that stuff lately. It's fine for story arcs to take 2 seasons and it just becomes confusing as hell when theres month long breaks in between.
