Excited for season 2 of Horizon and Lagrange. Hopefully they're both done with the "let's sit around and do nothing for extended periods of time" episodes. Unlikely.


Edit: Also posting the chart.

Are you talking about southern hemisphere spring, or northern hemisphere spring. Northern hemisphere first impression thread is currently on second page.

Thanks for the chart adam, capped at the moment so can't browse anything bar pre-cached websites.

Horizon season 2 will be nigh impossible for anything else to top.

I'm also looking forward to Kyoukai Senjou, at first I thought it was going to end up mediocre with the first few episodes, but the end really left me looking forward to the second season.

Also, I had forgotten about it, but Fairy Tail's movie, I wonder how it'll turn up. So far I've had really low expectations from the movies of mainstream animes. Strong World from One Piece was one of the few I enjoyed. It had good art and it cleared up alot of the ambiguity with Gol D Roger and the past etc, but apart from that, the storyline was pretty cliche and repetitive to what happens in the anime.

Updated this thread because a new chart has come out and because dog days s2 is on it!!! Now put in some bullets and shells, and we are set. (On a related note, Nanoha As is getting a movie this summer as well, so I hope they can retain the quality of the first movie to make an epic adaptation of As)

Toshokan Sensou S2 and Berserk.
That one eroge adaptation seems to be fine.

Rest look so terrible.

Updated first post with my own puush hosted Neregate image and included all the new additions to the list.

Looking forward to this upcoming season as well as enjoying a few titles of this current season, just to name them all:
  1. Campione! - I love the light novel of this series along with quite a few others I read/ re-read frequently with Youko Hikasa as Erica, Eri Kitamura as Lilianna and finally Kana Hanazawa as Yuri being pure icing on the cake.
  2. Hagure Yuusha no Estetica
  3. Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita
  4. Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate
  5. Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon Second Season
  6. Sword Art Online
Have I mentioned how absurdly stupid Kokoro Connect sounds?

Because its Winter at Japan where anime is created and Summer at your place. What else?

Because I'm Australian.

The place I got this image from is in the northern hemisphere so that's why it reads "Summer", if it was done by myself I would've put it down as Winter 2012.

Since i watched YuruYuri first season, i guess i shall continue that. As for everything else, I'll probably end up watching 3-4 episodes (if episode 1 pulled me in enough) of them all and decide if i want to continue from there

I will... If I'm interested.

I don't really see anything that intrigues me from the list. Recommendations, anyone?

Depends on which genres you like and what sort of storyline you'll be after as I could probably recommend you quite a few based on a few words describing what you want to see or would like to.

Let's see...

Something with a decent (& deadly serious) storyline and a quite nice animation.
Genre is preferably anything, but might as well match up along these:
  • Psychological
    Mystery
    Horror
    Gore
    Mecha
    Magic
    Myth
If there's one, I'll match up on my anime list. And please, less sexual fanservice.

Dunno if this is any different, but seems to be an updated version of the lineup.

SPOILER

Only good thing is the Berserk movie.

To be truthful, I am actually looking forward to next season. It is the first season in a while where I was actually looking forward to more than 2 shows.

Dog Days S2- 3rd female lead (come with yellow attire as well), just needs some shotgun shells and the season will be fine. (If all else fails, I still have a Horie Yui ED and a movie with magical shotgun shells to look forward to)
Yuru Yuri S2- As long as they keep the same type of jokes they had in S1, this will be a high point of my week.
Lagrange S2 - more trolls, should be fun xD

A bunch of manga I read are getting animated:
Binbou-gami ga!
Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai (I have that this will not turn out well though)
Kokoro Connect (need my Silver Link animation.....)
Kono Naka ni Hitori, Imouto ga Iru!(yay StylipS op)

Beyond that, we have various novels that I care for (light/visual)
Campione! - Please don't confuse me with mass amounts of mythology please
Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate - the 3 ways I see this: 1. Be like k-on! and just eat sweets all day long, probably not happening, 2. Hit the darker topics and do a decent job with them.......that is hard to do, 3. Go nowhere for the first 8 or 9 eps and try to force a plot into the last 3-4 episodes like a generic harem show..

Oh well, will probably sample almost everything next season.

kokoro connect sounds interesting because it has the same art style as k-on! (same artist, I think) and there's a lot of lolz to be had with its premise. xD
