At first glance (like a 20 second glance), Dance of the Vampire Bunds caught my eye. I'll wait for promotional material to decide the rest.
(Boy who manipulates iron from power drawn from breast milk made me LOL)
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
there is a Dance of the Vampire Bund PV out

Thanks for that. It's a must-watch now.Originally Posted by Pandadice
Most loli-vampires are.

V2s out. I'll edit it into the first post.
nice new Denpa teki na Kanojo ep.
so Katanagatari is an OVA? even more certain I'll watch it then. I really wanna watch Tears to Tiara at some point soon though, just to see how White Foxes premiere production turned out, and then I can compare it to Katanagatari, their second series to produce.
Though I'm not entirely sure what Dante's Inferno is (i thought it was a game or something O_o), it having multiple studio's names on it makes it appear as an anthology of sorts, so I'll definitely check it out.
The same with Halo Legends. Looking forward to the third installment in the "western franchise that gets an anime anthology" list. Though from reading the news about HL, from the start it doesn't seem like it'll be as good as either of the previous anthologies (batman gotham knight, and the animatrix). (but maybe that's just cause I've never been big into halo :\)
I'll check out Boku, Otaryman, and Aki Sora (lol, it looks like KissxSis meets Kanokon xD).
I'm still not sure if I'll be watching the new Fate/Stay Night summery reproductions or whatever they are. I'm thinking I should just to refresh my memory of the series, in prep for the movie :\. which I guess it what they're there for <.<.
Tokimeki OVA looks interesting, but I think I'll wait to watch the TV series before it.

So, unless your into the whole "hot girl does something something"-genre, theres not a single show for you that season. Awesome.
That pretty much seems to be the case.Originally Posted by MFauli
The Fate/Stay Night reproduction is a given. I hope they make it HD as well.
Dance in the Vampire Bund is the only one the looks interesting out of all the rest.
Though I may check Qwaser of Stigmata only because its premise its completely ridiculous. Drawing power from Breast Milk? WTF?
I hope they don't skimp on the nudity in Vampire Bund since it's done by SHAFT. The manga is VERY heavy in nudity, at least from what I recall.
there's Durarara D:. which looks and sounds like Baccano only set in modern day Japan.Originally Posted by MFauli
unless of course you just mean you want a series that's entirely without females O_o

Nothing much really changes for me.
Omamori Himari because I enjoyed the manga. That image is not a good representation of what the series is about by the way. It's a bit more like Kekkaishi meets Ashita no Yoichi. I'm guessing this is only a 12 episode series though.
Also, after re-reading the manga and enjoying it quite a bit more, Dance in the Vampire Bund. I've got high hopes for it because SHAFT can get away with a lot using their style. What normally might get censored gets a pass with their artistic spin, and tends to actually come off quite a bit more disturbing by not showing it realistically (ef and Bakemonogatari). They also have a good handle on loli-vampire shows.
edit: Nothing to worry about with Vampire Bund. There's a couple promos floating around, and there's plenty of blood.

Omamori Himari will likely not reach the good parts because of episode length, or will get brutally massacred by cutting out or replacement of material.
Dance in the Vampire Bund is absolutely awesome. There are awesome fight scenes that will greatly benefit anime treatment (if Shaft has enough budget to actually animate), especially with the volumes currently not translated. Hopefully, the anime will cover those as well. I just hope they keep the loli nudity. Most of them are not sexual in nature anyway.
Denpa teki na Kanojo is already out it seems. Aside from that, the rest look like generic crap. I hope I am mistaken though. I wouldn't want to spend winter season catching up on slice of life anime that I stalled on, such as Aria.
And before I get killed by Ryllharu or Kraco, Aria is a great show. It is just too relaxing for my current situation. I was saving it for when things get hectic so I can relax, not when I am bored without anything to watch.
Peace.
That's what I am afraid of with Omamori Himari. There really hasn't been that much of the manga out as is. If there are that many characters in the promotional image, they're probably going to rush and butcher it.Originally Posted by shinta|hikari
offtopic:
There is a reason I have yet to rewatch ARIA from start to finish. It is very similar to your own. Life has not nearly been as stressful as it was in college, so I am saving its uncanny ability to unwind me no matter how horrible the the day may have been until I need it.
It's the same reason I rarely listen to the soundtrack (and never in the car!) despite Choro Club's excellent music.
[11:06] <masamune> oh. winter 09-10 animes http://img402.imageshack.us/i/winter0910v2expq.jpg/
[11:07] <masamune> the guys who made Baccano! - check (even if it is a "love story")
[11:08] <masamune> wtf
[11:08] <masamune> some of these descriptions make me want to laugh and cry at the same time
[11:10] <masamune> the description for Qwaser is absolute WTFsauce
[11:11] <!Yukimura> lol draws his power from breast milk
[11:11] <masamune> yeah
[11:12] <masamune> love how they just casually throw that in there
[11:13] <masamune> school setting, girl meets mysterious boy, battle between poorly-named super-powered whoevers. WAIT! where is the comic sexual caveat? quick, Yamada! get me a potentially funny sexual caveat for the main character that hasn't been done before!
[11:13] <masamune> Yamada: um... .... like what? you mean something completely stupid like, instead of being a vampire who needs blood (done before), he needs breast milk or....
[11:13] <masamune> YES
[11:14] <masamune> BREAST MILK
[11:14] <!Yukimura> Studio Exec: Best. Idea. Ever
[11:14] <!Yukimura> even better than that manga about he guy who drinks the girls spit
[11:14] <!Yukimura> except that it's not
[11:14] <!Yukimura> they should have made that into a manga
[11:14] <!Yukimura> *anime
[11:15] <masamune> they are so out of premises
[11:15] <masamune> the well of good ideas is bone dry
[11:15] <masamune> but everyone is too afraid to try and produce something that doesnt have a thrilling frill or an erotic exotic
[11:16] <masamune> because then they'll find out they really have no talent
[11:17] <masamune> EXEC: "You know what we haven't done in years? A show about normal Japanese cops chasing down realistic Japanese and international Yakuza."
[11:17] <masamune> STUDIO: "but, sir... we DONT KNOW HOW to do that!"
and, i second MFauli's sentiment. if you haven't fapped to 2D girls before, there is almost no way you could get into the majority of the shows produced this past year and a half (maybe two years, even)
Durararara (if it's anything like Baccano!, indeed, Kraco)
Dances with Bunds (since everyone here seems to think highly of it, and the bits of manga I've glimpsed are quite good)
Gag Manga Biyori+ (because it seems the only thing manga and anime is good for now is as fodder for spoofs and derision by other manga/ anime)
i was almost, almost, almost sure i was going to get my yearly military anime fix with So Ra No O To, but then i saw it was just K-ON in Amuro's clothing.
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".
Durarara!! - From the creators of Baccano with a similar Pulp Fiction-esque premise. What's not to like?
Vampire Bund - Nudity. Violence. Shaft.
Nodame Cantabile Finale - Nodame has always been excellent.
Omamori Himari - I'm currently scheduled to encode this for SFW, so I'm kinda obligated to also watch it.
Chu-Bra - Obligatory echii series.
What a dismal season. I'll be picking up the end of Nodame, and that's about all methinks.
So far, only Dance in the Vampire Bund has caught my eye. I will probably pick up stuff that I missed this season, like that flying-panstu anime. (Sora no Oto-something)
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
What's the story with the Fate remake?
"They call it 'The American Dream' because you have to be asleep to believe it" - George Carlin
According to ANN it seems to be a 2 x 60 mins bluray compilation of the series with reediting and some new music tracks.
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...mong-its-anime
and CR's claims start off with Durarara and Chu-Bra (wait, lol, chu-bra? did they pay money for that?).
guess this means we can expect certain groups to be avoiding these titles, while expecting consistent horriblesub releases.. one less thing on gg's list i guess <.<.
