New season (24)

It's time for the new season thread! What shows are you looking forward to? The ones that grabbed my attention when reading the latest NewType (http://bittorrent.frozen-layer.net/archivo.php?id=12182) were:

  • Eureka Seven (http://www.eureka-prj.net) - I really like Kenichi Yoshida's designs, but I wish he'd work on something other than mecha shows. Really not my thing.
  • Trinity Blood (http://www.kadokawa.co.jp/toribla/) will apparently be the gothiest show ever.
  • Hachimitsu to Clover (Honey and Clover, http://comics-news.shueisha.co.jp/common/hatikuro/) looks pleasantly unconventional for a shoujo show. I might watch that if it turns out interesting in other ways than visually, too.
  • The Gainax/Broccoli project Bushilord (http://www.bushilord.com/) seems to be getting closer. That'll be interesting to see how it turns out. Not sure if that is airing this season or next, though.
  • Sakura Taisen: Le Nouveau Paris OVA on the way.
  • The new Oh! My Goddess series is something one has to pay attention to, I suppose. Looks like they're starting over again with that one.
  • I already watched a bit of the Mahou Sensei Negima anime, but I was not all that impressed. The opening especially seemed really lame.
  • Mahoraba looks like just another harem show, but I'm watching it anyway, because I am big fan of the author of the manga, Kojima Akira. He did Seiken Shoujo, one of my first translations: http://www.magnesium.net/~dag/translations/seiken_shoujo/
  • And for some more moe, there's the He Is My Master anime, the Ichigo Mashimaro anime, and the utterly weird Battle Fairy Girl - Help! Mave-chan OVA.
  • Noted in passing: Full Metal Panic The Second Raid, Xenosaga, Starship Operators.

Signed. I got bored with FMP after watching half of the first episode, but I loved Fumoffu to bits.

Good time to point out the latest 2chan board where Toshiaki discuss shows that are running as they are posting screencaps of them. http://dat.2chan.net/18/futaba.htm

OMG!!!! Trinity Blood is like the best example on how fucked up the catholic church is.

> Seiken Shoujo

Does any more of this exist? I've been looking for it for a while.

On topic, I'm looking forward to AMG if it isn't insta-licensed (and it keeps all the awesome motor-vehicle goodness from the manga this time around) and will give AIR a whirl.

9 Name: !WAHa.06x36 05/01/07(Fri)12:25 ID:hhf4kSvW

I've been trying to find more Seiken Shoujo for YEARS.

I know there is some in the first volume of Gangan YG, but I haven't been able to get my hands on that.

INSTANT REVIEW : Mahou Sensei Negima

Anime fanservice has evolved from "Onii-chan" to "Sensei".

Mahou Sensei Negima:

魔法先生ネギま!

You want loli's with that?

The new Oh! My Goddess seems to contain quite a bit of re-writing, and also seems fairly classy. I'm looking forward to more.

14 Name: !WAHa.06x36 05/01/11(Tue)20:00 ID:lgKw1nXR

Air surprised me by being not completely boring. At least the main character was mildly interesting and had some sort of personality, a rarity in bishoujo shows.

>Trinity Blood

Hey, look, Goth Vash. Also, Studio Gonzo. I might watch this if it doesn't turn out to be full of kawaii goth bishies.

>The new Oh! My Goddess series is something one has to pay attention to, I suppose.

I'm successfully not caring about it.

Starship Operators looks like it deserves much more than a mention in passing, but since nobody's subbing it I can't really say.

More mentions in passing: Jinki EXTEND, Ultimate Girls, Gunbuster 2, Air, Magical Canan, GUNxSWORD

Please try to keep the AA in English and topical.

I'm pretty sure there won't be a single frame of animation that isn't packed edge-to-edge with kawaii goth bishies.

Also, Ultimate Girl is fantastically bad.

Starship Operators is a pretty clever spin on the Nadesico concept. The storytelling was a bit hurried in the first episode, but it's definitely original and interesting.

21 Name: Random Anime Otaku 05/01/17(Mon)04:49 ID:VqF5gFrN

Sukisho - now I finally know how you guys must feel when you play an H game, and then see it on TV in a dummed down version. It's really weird. Good to hear the voices, but I wasn't really a fan of the game in the first place.

With so many groups doing shows like AMG and Air, anyone have opinions on best/worst subs?

23 Name: !WAHa.06x36 05/01/17(Mon)14:00 ID:AwTGBp/L

Triad's doing Air, and they've never produced anything but quality.

24 Name: Random Anime Otaku 05/01/17(Mon)18:06 ID:aSHdA7KW

I'm going with Solar for AMG and Triad for Air.
