I haven't checked out ID-0 yet. I also haven't dropped this many series in as long as I can remember, so I can actually say with authority this time: this season sucks.
Some of your greats invalidate your claims.
I saw a thread for episode 3 that died after like 10 posts. It seems nobody is watching the show and the few people that started at episode 1 dropped it after episode 2. Frankly I'm kinda disappointed with it so far. The aesthetic style and tone of the series seems really comfy and well-made, but the pacing of the plot is just boring. I'm gonna stick with it though.

Good thing is that King`s Avatar is 60 episodes long, so its not just this season having good show to watch, but whole year.
Hero Academia is shaping up good, though everything is expected the Deku vs Todo and Stain fights will be pretty exciting.
Shingeki is decently animated and the music is very good again, so that's nice. Nothing exciting and no one knows why the fuck they decided to do 1 cour.
Laughing Salesman remake is hit or miss. When it's good though it's very entertaining and thought provoking.
Boruto is decent nostalgia for early pre Chuunin exams Naruto and I'm enjoying it so far.
Sakura Quest is cute.
Kado is intriguing so far. It could either become a very thought provoking (though poorly animated due to CG) anime, or a complete trainwreck. Should be fun to see which.
We'll see on Vrains, that's all I can say.
Granblue is alright albeit generic
Eromanga is funny but a complete copy paste of Oreimo, so I'm not expecting much more than a couple laughs here and there.
Alice is very entertaining so far, I love the characters so far. One of the top 3 of the season.
Re: Creators is a very attractive concept and so far has nailed the characters down very well. The director is known for hitting the mark about 20% of the time and otherwise causing massive train wrecks, so this will either be a cult classic or a code geass type situation, either way it'll be fun.
Akashic records is entertaining with fun characters and has the uniform of the year. Otherwise generic, but fun.
Hinako Note is decently entertaining but needs to drop some of the fucking quirks, because their repetitiveness is getting annoying and if they keep relying on them so heavily I'll drop it.
Little witch academia is cute as hell, has great lore, excellent music, and some of the most charming characters I've seen in years. I think it has a good shot at AOTY and a solid lead for AOTS with how cour 2 is going so far (only exception being them most recent episode). Either way, and no matter the sales, a very good showing for Trigger and shows they're not just a one hit wonder for TV anime.
Except fall, falls are always good
every other season is a race to the bottom
