so summer is here...not for me actually it been raining hard for the past two weeks, no lemonade sun for me..anyway here is my list:

Definite:
Canaan- creators from Tsukihime and F/S Night? Hell yeah
Umineko no Nakue Koro ni- creators of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni? Hell yeah
Summer Wars- the same team behind "the girl who leapt through tine" and same character designer from NGE series and Superflat animations similar to takashi murakami's work? Hell yeah

Potentials:
Tokyo Magnitude 8.0- the production looks good and I like the idea of earthquakes as a plot device
Bakemonogatari- hmm heard some good things about the book

Maybes:
Princess lover- just another harem thing to watch
Umi Monogatari- I like stories that takes place around islands
Kanamemo- not much is reveal about it
Needless- not too much info either but I get a gurren laggan vibe (then again I was wrong about Basqaush)

Besides those animes and the visual novels i am working on can anybody recommend any completed anime series for me to watch?

[Kaisos Erranon]

Should mention that NEEDLESS is nothing like Gurren Lagann, despite the art style.

And a recommended series...? Hmm.

Watched Azumanga yet?

funny you should ask since i am in the middle of my rounds re-reading all the volumes again. is it worth to watch the animated version?

[Kaisos Erranon]

JC Staff turned Azumanga from a gag 4koma into something with MEANING.

Hell yeah it's worth watching.

Yoshiyuki Sadamoto? Sweet. I came across this title a few days back and was wondering something across these lines: "Will these be relevant to my interests?" And when I saw Sadamoto's name... well, I'm in for it.

[Beware the talking cat]

Wait wait.

Is Canaan by the studio for F/SN and Tsukihime or is it another Natsu story?

Wait wait.

Is Canaan by the studio for F/SN and Tsukihime or is it another Natsu story?

is another natsu story supposedly based on a bonus from the famous 428: Fūsasareta Shibuya de visual novel for the Wii. i have to wait for that to translate since it looks like one of the best real-life VN i seen. I heard is heavy on the Japanese language so it gonna take a very long time.

anyway here are the past studios that work on his previous work:

J.C. Staff: Tsukihime
Studio Deen- Fate/Stay Night
P.A. Works- Canaan.
Ufotable- Kara no Kyōkai: the only company i respect that really portrays Nasu work the best, the rest bleh. then again can't really complain since is a high quality film budget compare to a 13 - 26 series.

[Kaisos Erranon]

Canaan is based off of the scenario in 428 written by Nasu. He has nothing to do with the actual show, pretty sure.

[Nerevarine]

what no Spice and Wolf 2? thats gonna be the highlight of the season for me

that and Sayonara Sensei

i recommend u watch Eden of the East, just finished watching it all yesterday, really good

[Assassin]

I think the reason why people in the world are all over for Canaan would be because of Nasu's and Takeuchi's involvement in it. 'Nuff said, aye?

Well, as I think of it, I'm also in for it too. Curiosity has kill the ca-- I mean, has gotten me here and there and now this.

I hate summer. Why?

Because it's hot and there's NOTHING to watch...

With that out of the way...

The good:
Umineko and S&W 2 are must watch shows
The sooner we get the Negi vs. Rakan fight animated the better
No GONZO this time
Lots of Hocchan this season

The bad:
Minami kinda died for me...
NEVER EVER trust Madhouse will do a decent job, ever
It took them that long to make a Utawarerumono OVA but barely half a year for an Aka-iro OVA? (that Nanoha ripoff did not deserve to win)
They need to stop trying to milk the empty cow known as Higurashi
Still waiting for a Clover Heart's and/or Gore Screaming Show anime
Also waiting for decent subs for Zetsubou (streaming is for noobs)

[Fushichou]

Utawarerumono OVA was meh.

BTW, if you plan on watching it, there is straight up nudity. Personally, I think it's retarded to put breasts in anime, but whatever floats their boats, eh?

[Fushichou]

Actually, I change my mind.

It was terrible. Don't even bother.

One certain title sparked off the start of the season. Catching it now.
