    Besides Dragon Ball Kai, there´s nothing that genuinely interests me at the moment.

    I had a quick look, and it looks like an awesome season. I'd better hurry up with upgrading my internet plan!

    I'll post my preferences up later when I've had a good look at them (and finished my reports).

    At first glance, FMA and S&W 2 instantly make the list.

    My starting Bleach from ep 1 (as a noob, since I never watched it) will allow me to be on time with Spice and Wolf II, I hope.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    Based on the description Tears to Tiara sounds exactly like my kind of series. I watched a PV earlier, and Requiem for a Phantom looked somewhat interesting as well.

    OMG, Detective Conan vs Lupin the 3rd!

    FMA, Valkyria Chronicle and Cross Games are the only must watch series for me at the moment. I'll probably pick up Shangri-la and Requiem of the Phantom also.

    Hopefully Guin Saga will be a good medieval-fantasy anime in the vein of Utawarerumono or Scrapped Princess.

    FMA definitely, Valkyria Chronicles (Played the game),

    Basquash! might be interesting I guess? Maybe it's just me trying to look for another break away over the top spirital successor to Gurren Lagann. If anything it might end up like a Eyeshield 21.

    07-Ghost might be interesting. Though, I read a bit of the manga scanlations and kinda got bored of it, maybe the rest of the story will be good though. Kinda feels like a D-Grayman.

    Pandora Hearts might be good, and maybe Natsu no Arashi would be good for a spring slice of life that sounds to be interesting.

    Full Metal Alchemist
    Shangri La
    Valkyria Chronicles (despite the game still being unopened in my shelf)
    Tears to Tiara
    Asura Cryin
    Spice and Wolf II
    Tsubasa Shunraki

    I hope I have time to see them all... if not I'll have to drop several.

    Rainbow Nisha is my "this description seems right up my alley" one
    I mean. Really. Prison life. Gritty, nasty, you have to be smart or you're fucked.
    plus the guy who writes it looks like he's been in prison
    (but ANN doesn't allow hotlinking, so instead...)

    Senjou no Valkyrie (i'm going to spell it right, even if Japan can't)

    Guin Saga because it's been awhile since I had a good "ye olde adventure piece" (totally with you animus)
    edit - holy shit, Nobuo Uematsu is doing work on the music for this one? FUCK YOUR FANBOY SOCKS!!
    (but the rest of the brain guys behind it don't really seem to impress me with their track records...

    and, of course, Fullmetal Alchemist

    Basquash! looks like one of those "it's so bad that it'll be good" candidates.
    Pandora Hearts sounds like a another "I know, let's take the same old crap we dish out in every shounen adventure and try to make it trendy by theming it after.. *selects random literary classic* ... Alice in Wonderland!"

    also, can I get some love for "Jewel Pets" ?

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    click the link that says "Play Movie" and prepare to be amazed!!!!!

    Basquash is certainly working hard to make my list of "i did it for the lulz" watches

    I've got a pretty light schedule this season, surprisingly little interests me.

    Queen's Blade
    Tears to Tiara
    K-ON
    Saki (mahjong club? Definitely worth a try)
    Eden of the East (maybe)
    Shangri-La (maybe)

    I didn't think Spice and Wolf II was for this upcoming season, but rather the summer one.

    Natsu no Arashi is an absolute must. Nuff said.
    Don't believe in yourself, believe in me, who believes in you.

    i'm planning to check out

    Fullmetal remake (of course)
    Shangri-la (been looking forward to that since last fall)
    K-ON
    Eden of the East
    Saki
    Valkyria Chronicles
    Konnichiwa Anne

    though i wasn't at first, i watched the pv for Basquash, and now i'm definitely gonna check that one out.

    Queens Blade
    Asura Cryin
    definitely Phantom
    Rainbow Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin
    definitely, DEFINITELY Lupin vs Conan (can't wait!)
    Yurumates
    Dogs
    Denpa Teki na Kanojo

    and the more I look at
    Cross Game and
    Hatsukoi Gentei

    the more interesting they look.
    and I think that's it.

    man, I'm looking forward to this spring season so much. unlike the Winter where i wasn't really anticipating much, so it was more of a watch a little of it all and see what i like.

    and here's the v3 of the picture/list

    Must watch:

    FMA
    Tsubasa Shunraiki
    Spice & Wolf II
    Valkyria Chronicles

    Looking Good:

    07-Ghost
    Guin Saga
    Tears to Tiara
    Hatsukoi Gentei
    Pandora Hearts
    Phantom
    Shangri-La
    Natsu no Arashi (only because SHAFT is doing it)

    I think Ryll's right about Spice and Wolf 2 being aired in summer, since it's listed as an OVA on the chart.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    But there will be an OVA on April (30 I think), and that is more than enough reason to celebrate.
