Is it just me, or is it weird that this season has adaptations from at least 2 manga that have slowed to a crawl? I get that most anime are just advertisements for manga, but why bother when the manga is barely putting out new chapters?

Which two?
I don't know which anime those are, but it's not only about advertising the manga,
Anime are made by a production committee, which consists of various companies that put money into it and expect something in return. The source material's publisher is just one of them, and they're the only ones interested in boosting the source material. But even they might be doing it for some other purpose, like the author's next work or a spinoff.
finally Delicious in Dungeon is upon us
Said no one: "Yay! Another CARDFIGHT!! Series!"
Also, why are they making a 2nd season of Tskukimichi? Someone just had to continue (finish?) the extremely low effort story‽
I wrote elsewhere about my thoughts on Tsukimichi season 2. I am a big fan of the source material and agree that the first season was alright at best. I think part of it is that the first parts of the story are probably its weakest, but then the anime was a very mediocre adaptation. So, it was a mediocre adaptation of not great parts of the story which added up to a very generic feeling isekai.
For the second season (which I was surprised to see happen tbh), there is a new studio and they announced it will be 2 cours. So, I am hoping that better source material combined with a renewed investment in the production will add up to a better season of anime this time around. We will see!
At the end of the day though, if the first season didn't connect with you at all, season 2 probably won't either.
If anyone hasn't tried Mashlee yet, give it a go! Hilarious! Try the first episode, and you'll assuredly know if it's for you or not
At last) solo levelling came out
Shows for Winter 2024 on my radar, that I am interested in watching:
- Classroom of the Elite: first two seasons were fun, looking forward to season 3
- Bottom-tier Character Tomozaki: first season was OK, I'm interested in where the story will go
- Mato Seihei no Slave: I vaguely recall someone saying there was something good about the source material
- MASHLE: first season was OK, I'm not very interested in S2, I might binge it when the season is complete
- Blue Exorcist: oh, another season. It's been a while. I remember liking the first season and being confused at the start of the second season (it's about 6 years between each season, so maybe I just forgot some important details. From a S2 MAL review: "the season does not follow the end of season 1. Episodes 18-25 were not canon and accordingly, they do not exist in season 2", I didn't know this, so maybe that was my problem)
- The Dangers in My Heart: first season was fantastic, excited for the second season
- A Sign of Affection: the source material is rated highly on MAL, I'll give it a shot
- Banished from the Hero's Party: First season was OK
- TSUKIMICHI: I liked the first season, looking forward to the second season
- The Foolish Angel Dances with the Devil: I saw the PV, I'll give it a shot
- Cherry Magic!: The source material is rated well on MAL, I'll give it a shot
- The Witch and the Beast: The source material is rated well on MAL, I'll give a shot
- The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash: WILDCARD, I dunno, it sounds like absolute trash from the title, but I think I'll give it a shot anyways
