So far, I've started:

Dandadan: pretty fun so far.
365 Days To The Wedding: fun premise and characters. Always appreciate shows with adults as MCs. I can only hope the premise of forcibly sending an employee to an overseas branch can't happen in real life though, but I wouldn't be surprised if it can.
Villainess Goes Down in History: not great so far. Prefer the manga.
Re:Zero: interesting start. Curious to see where it goes.
SAO Alternative GGO II: meh start. No reason to care yet.
Demon Lord 2099: cool setup, but there are a lot of ways this can go wrong, so still a bit on edge.

I've also caught up with the new Monogatari season. I love it, especially the latest arc.

Also still continuing 2.5D Seduction which is still fun.

I want to watch Magilumiere, but it's on Prime and I'm not too thrilled about giving Amazon money.

forcibly sending an employee to an overseas branch

It can happen, but probably not for a travel agency like in the show. Growing up, my dad worked as a civilian contractor for the US military, and we moved all the time. I went to >10 different schools before graduating high school. I was basically always the new kid. There was only one time though that we almost moved overseas. That got changed up only about a month or so before we had planned on leaving. So, instead of moving to Scotland, I got to enjoy Phoenix instead. Not sure that was a favorable trade.
