ANIME WINTER 2013 PLAN

[gem2niki]

It's that time for new anime!!! I will write my review of the Fall anime that finished later. I also started linking my anime list to the posts with review for my future reference.

Mon
Amnesia The game art looks pretty....dunno much about it. Hopefully better plot wise than Arcana haha.
The Unlimited Hyobu Kyosuke Apparently its a spinoff of Zettai Karen Children. Never watched it before...so hopefully it doesn't require prev viewing. But it looks kinda dark and stylish.

Tues
Ginga e Kickoff Continuing. I caught up with subs. I really enjoy this soccer anime! The characters are adorable!! Hopefully sub isn't too slow though....
Senyuu Fantasy comedy? I'm in! I wonder how it compares to the ballsy Ixion Saga XD

Wed
Tamako Market I might convert into a KyoAni fan. I'm really liking how their character designs look. It looks really cute! Enjoyed their prev two series, so hopefully I'll like this.

Thurs
Chihayafuru 2 YAYYYY!!!!!!! So happy!!! One of my favorite from last year. Even more pumped after the staff were at AX and I got to meet them :D (despite how awkward that was)~
Hetalia The Beautiful World Finished the previous season not too long ago. Looking forward to the new look.
Gintama New arc at last!!!
Zetsuen no Tempest Continuing. Dramatic music. Ridiculous twists. Consistent quality! Samon is too entertaining to watch.
Psycho-pass Continuing. It's really hard to watch...but at the same time I can't stop watching...
Robotics;Notes Continuing. Slice of life in the beginning. Now it seems to be going for a dark turn....
Shirokuma Cafe Continuing. Weekly dose of animal light comedy~ Shirokuma is becoming more and more of a troll.

Fri
Cuticle Detective Inaba I keep thinking actual cuticle haha. Looks like a fun comedy? There's that weird goat. Kinda reminds me of Yondemasuyo.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Continuing. Ridiculous narration, dialogue and violence. But super fun~!!
Shin Sekai Yori Continuing. Kinda so-so for me right now. Still interested what's gonna happen to the remaining characters. Animation has been inconsistent...
Maoyu No idea what this is about, but it has Toi8 design. Not sure how much that big cleavage will be a distraction........

Saturday
Hakkenden Heard its from a long running manga? The charadesign did Guilty Crown which makes it look really nice...but Studio Deen???? Tho I admit they were more consistent in Hakuouki.
Space Brothers Continuing. Astronaut training begin!!

Sunday
Ixion Saga DT Continuing. I enjoy my stupid show :D ED is my favorite~~
Magi Continuing. It's really moved at a fast pace. It's kinda settling now in Balbadd arc.

Total: 20 (What how did that happen? That was more than fall. But 11 I am continuing.)

Also watching
Code:Breaker (remaining subs just came out)
Reborn

Backburner
Kamisama Hajimemashita
Hunter x Hunter

Man, I haven't been keeping up too well with this upcoming season. I'm at least looking forward to Blast of Tempest and Psycho-Pass though (that last episode really had me on the edge of my seat!). Excited to marathon HxH later, but I've left SSY alone for a while only because I'm rather disappointed and nervous for it to get worse, lol!

Also, I heard K is getting a new season? What'd you end up thinking about it?

I'm happy for new Chihayafuru, and also really happy that Kuroko got greenlit for a second season (was also worried about Kuroko animators losing their jobs because of that terrorist, argh! So selfish, that guy!)

Haven't really seen what the new series this time are, but I'm disappointed that Maoyu seems to be a fanservicey thing. I've been so intrigued by Toi8's art for it and disappointed I couldn't read the novels, and was excited for an animated adaptation, but turns out I don't think this adaptation will be what I hoped it would be.

...And aw man, for some reason I always forget Magi anime exists. I haven't seen past episode 6 or something yet... must catch up. Are you liking it still? I'm gonna have to catch up with you on Phi Brain and Ixion Saga (heard random things about the latter, it should be...interesting, at least. Lol!)

/end ramble!
/edit: abridged this a bit because this was way too dang long! hahaha

Heyo! Right now the new season is quite so-so....Not as exciting as last season. Most of the series I look forward to are continuation XD

SSY is getting weirddddd. I'm sticking through it to see how it goes. But damn, the inconsistency with the animation is kinda jarring (and i'm not blaming episode 5).

I'm gonna write my thoughts for K later...but I really enjoyed it. I can see it being one of my favorite for 2012. Did you finish it? I liked how (almost) everything ties together in the end (it actually makes sense!!). The way they use visual hints that become important later in the series was clever and made me watch each episode several times. The naming convention also have meanings. From the writer's twitter (http://marchen-v-friedhof.tumblr.com/post/39136260257/reds-closing-tweets), it seems they want to explore more of the characters and world. So I'm excited to see what they'll add to the world.

Oh dang, I hope they catch that jerk!!! Seem like he is targeting mostly the mangaka and not the anime itself...?

I hope Maoyu is not too fanservicey...the Demon King seems to be the only one with the huge rack...but the CONCEPT is interesting. They broke down so many tropes, I'm curious how it will go. I read that the animation studio is known for their boobies series...

What, you forgot? Lol. Well you can start marathoning it!! There's some excellent stuff with the recent episodes! Like the Ugo vs Judal battle, Morgiana kicking ass, and Alibaba using Amon's Sword. Plus the new opening and ending are awesome!! *O*

I'm gonna have to catch up with you on Phi Brain and Ixion Saga Ouu awesome XD Remember Phi Brain is a kid show....but the characterization is really good. The 2nd half of both seasons is what makes the series great for me. Ixion Saga's jokes can drag...but its still funny how the story will keep going in weird directions. Turn off your mind if you watch it haha.

/end long response (i miss your comments~~!!)
