So anyway, what's cool this new season? Tell me. White Album looks lame. I flicked through the first ep.
Same with tentai senshi Sunred o-o except it looks super amazingly awesome. I haven't really watched it yet.

One Outs is still awesome.

The author of the novels it's based upon also wrote Seirei no Moribito. Dunno anything else about it though, but since Seirei was awesome it might be worth a look.
[edit: first episode airs today apparently, so, waiting for someone to pick it up]

maria+holic looks like a nice comedy... also another season of minami-ke ... gonna start watching the first season any day now in search for more slice of life, comedy anime :)

[Gabe]

Astro Fighter Sunred = Epic

Kemono no Souja Erin

Hmm. It looks bad but possibly interesting.

SUNRED.

[KasugaSan]

I'm expecting that

and Maria+holic is funny....maybe a cross between Maria-sama ga Miteru and the artstyle of Sayonara zetsubou sensei

[shrag]

i think kinda a lot of girls bravo in the ... plot ... its nicely drawn and quite funny so yeah

[KasugaSan]

Ah...Zoku Natsume Yuujinchou is as bittersweet as the previous season
T^T

[zellmer]

A quick so far I guess..


Minami-ke Okaeri is still minami ke, just enjoyable and sometimes funny.

Asu no Yoichi wasn't that bad even if it's been done to death and is pretty generic.

Kurokami looked like it could either go really badly, or turn into something great, only thing that's seinen either way, so I'll watch it.

Maria + holic wasn't very funny and is using a retarded premise, but maybe, just maybe it could be ok.

Regios was fucking trash garbage with way to much techno/trance music.

Sora o Kakeru Shoujo was fucking horrendous, slow moving, boring, retarded, uninteresting, GARBAGE.

[desterion]

asu no yoichi is somewhat generic, but they're taking a different spin to it. At least with not having a total pussy for a main character.

Akikan. I want to hate this show and should, but for some reason it's interesting enough to keep watching.

Regios is the only thing I've seen so far that is complete crap. They got good animation... but it's such a horribly jumped together mess that it really sucks.

Overall, i'm just happy to see the return of the 2 greatest sports anime of all time. Major and hajime no ippo.

So bright and blury that it hurts my eyes

Comics are great that they single out italy and france along with equally worthless european countries, and admitting japan was almost as worthless, but also funny that it just plain old ignores unimportant countries.

Almost enough to ignore the bishounen aspect.

[Spike]

it's awesome man, I just watched it. They didn't give germany the angela merkel treatment though and rather dipped into some ancient chlichees of european countries, which is kind of dull but funny nonetheless.
Can't be taken as a serious parody, more of a I make fun of you haha anime. I really dig the haha part.

Seems like the only new shows I picked up lately involve transforming motorcycles, odd...

What shows are these?

[Lucky-7]

Viper's Creed and RideBack

both are "ok" shows, with viper being more on the generic side than rb.

[KunJinky]

^ I can agree with that.

With Rideback, it's tempting to compare it with others series since the plot seems so derived. But not as predictable as I originally thought, though not by much. So far the plot seems to be progressing at a fast enough pace and I feel like I can "grow" with the show.

Viper's Creed is something I think I would've really enjoyed when I was 13, but less so today. They start doing these episodes that focuses on a character early on which seems random and not THAT interesting.

[KunJinky]

This thread should be stickied, just saying.

I'm gonna watch the anime on the top row except Guin Saga and K-On

Anything else looking cool? I see one or two things.

Also, what was good last season? o_o

[KasugaSan]

OK watched Sengoku Basara
...it's uh...as expected from a game turned anime, it's got a lot of over-the-top action scenes that you can expect from a hack n slash game

I'm gonna watch it only for the action...the story seems pretty pointless anyway since it's not exactly historically accurate =/

[emetic]

Oh wow,

K-On is super awesome.

Well, it's nothing special but it's just the kind of fluffy anime crap I felt like watching lately.

Plus I like music animes.
