| Great to see Yowamushi Pedal get another season <3 Overall some interesting previews like with Ao Haru Ride and another Glasslip PV. I'm curious to see an animated PV of Akame ga Kill though. Is the list missing this PV though? Bakumatsu Rock PV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKlQ36GjiHg&feature=player_detailpage |

| Oh, Servant x Service is ending. I hope it gets another season, I think it sold pretty well if I remember correctly. If not, then I'll just read the manga. Hopefully Hasabe and Lucy end up together. |
| Another page to the history of the Fujaku. |
| S x S has just 4 volumes? Does anyone knows how many chapters total and how many were adapted? |

| looking soo forward to akame ga kill xD |
| My favorite quotes from animes: Those who seek miracles will never experience one. The hand of salvation only extends to people who try to make miracles happen. - Ef a tale of melodies. I destroy worlds. I create worlds. - Code geass We are humans. - Shinsekai yori 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and a 10km run EVERY SINGLE DAY!!! - One punch man |

I hope there is enough material for another season as well but since it's ending would they even make another season? I may have to start reading manga. |

Wind_Sr said: Singer HIMEKA Ends Career in Japan Singer HIMEKA has announced on her official Twitter that she will have to end her music career in Japan. Her previous contract expired on April 1st, and since she could not find a new agency, she will have to return back home to Canada. HIMEKA is thoroughly underrated as an Anisong Grand Prix winner. I hope it wasn't the fact that she is not Japanese that made her unable to get jobs as an anisong singer. |
| Can't wait for Akame ga Kill and Glasslip. :D And also Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata in Jan '15 :) |

They look very close to their manga design, nice job WF. Wind_Sr said: Muh maaya Uchida Wind_Sr said: Hooray for more Major and the gang! Seems like it will be 2 boys trying to get the main girl while the model likes one of the boys, and on the side the guy with the headband and the glasses girl seem to be paired up. That's just my guess though. Wind_Sr said: Man this is looking good. |

| Glasslip feel more like Hanasaku Iroha with nano.RIPE. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |

Oh God how torn i am right now. The very mention of Maruto Fumiaki in charge of script has gotten my hopes up a lot considering how awesome White Album 2 turned out to be. But knowing the kind of material he's getting his hands on (Well, if 12 manga chapters i've read is any indication) i just can't help but being pessimistic. Heroine no Sodatekata doesn't strike me as any different than your standard "Loser-dealing-with-bunch-of-beautiful-and-overbearing women" thing that so many LNs are so fond to indulge themselves upon, with standard stock of characters and very convenient storytelling. Of course execution is what matters more than anything, but that kind of story usually doesn't leave much room for anything else, nor being able to be more than what it looks like on the surface. |

Of course execution is what matters more than anything, but that kind of story usually doesn't leave much room for anything else, nor being able to be more than what it looks like on the surface. Isnt he the one who wrote the original novel that the anime is adapting? He even wrote the story for the manga adaptation of the same series too apparantly. If the person wrting the script for an anime adaptation of a novel that he himself wrote, and even has experience in animes too, then I imagine that the anime adaptation would be as good as it can get if not even better than the original material. But thats just me being optimistic since the author of the novel is heavily involved in the anime too, and that usually leads to a decent - really good adaptation from what I've seen. |

| Oh, i knew that Saenai Heroine is Fumiaki's work and i definitely expect faithful adaptation from him. The question is, will he be able to give much improvement and create a quality adaptation (storytelling-wise) given the fact that his material is yet another LN with very standard conventions? And the idea that this kind of thing is going to air on noitaminA is just . . . nah, they've got that Nanana show this season, so whatever. Honestly though, LN with this kind of premise and characters usually make me laugh. Though intentionally or not is different issue. |

Well, I guess that depends on whether he himself believes that his novel could be improved or not, like adding/changing stuff in the anime that he cant redo in the novel now, and stuff like that. Either way, I'm expecting a good adaptation too and I look forward to any anime that does the original material justice. |
