I am a lot less optimistic about Spring then I am a few weeks ago...... Wizard Barristers makes me think ARMS is a complete joke nowadays and there's little chance of Gokukoku no Brynhildr not sucking, despite me liking the manga a lot. Similarly Mahou Sensou makes me feel that the odds of Mahouka sucking is pretty high, especially when I am not a fan of Manabu Ono. The recent announcement of Jin handling the script of Kagerou Project makes me feel SHAFT isn't taking it seriously either and I can foresee it turning out to be the new Serial Experiments Lain. Even Love Live seems to have a high potential of sucking and wallowing in drama considering how they are hinting that the third years will graduate. Not sure what else in Spring interests me, maybe Date A Live S2 although I was only mildly entertained by S1.

Epic on the scales of Clannad. SHAFT, I'm putting all my trust and hope in you that you will do a wonderful job adapting this. Or else some's gonna flip a table or 2 if you don't lol)

I'm really looking forward to this, but why mention Clannad? Different genre, differen't studio, how totally irrelevant.

I'll probably only be following Mekaku city actors, and wait for reviews before I start watching other shows. Although I'm also interested in Haikyuu and Akuma no riddle.

I know it's a different studio..as for the genres they are similar...both share the romance and supernatural aspects. I made the comparision because Kagero Project's dramatic moments are on par with Clannad (and we all know Clannad had quite a few dramatic moments). Just my opinion though. No need to point stuff like what's relevant or not, thank you.

There are a few series airing that catch my eye.

Shows
Soul Eater NOT! - While I freaking hated Soul Eater's ending, I adored that series. I know this is a spin-off series, but considering it's the same universe, I'll admit my interest is piqued. Still, I think I'd prefer a sequel to Soul Eater and not a spin-off series...

Ryouugajou Nanana no Maizoukin - I'm not going to lie, I'm a sucker for supernatural anime and this seems somewhat reminiscent of Tasogare Otome x Amnesia. I don't think it'll be as dark as that series, but I guess we won't know until it comes out.

Gokukoku no Brynhildr - Lately, Arms has been putting out better-and-better stuff. I'm incredibly interested in this series from it's plot synopsis. It sounds like it could be an incredibly emotional series. However, the one thing I'll say is it isn't exactly in Arms' wheelhouse to make a series like that. I'll be interested in seeing if they can pull it off.

Captain Earth - It's a Bones mecha. Does anything else need to be said? Well, I suppose...I sure hope it's more like Eureka Seven and less like Eureka Seven: AO.

Hitsugihime no Chaika - This series has been put off for two seasons in a row now. From what it looks like, Bones is putting an awful lot of effort into it. I'm interested in seeing what this series can churn out, and it might be nice to finally have a series with an "older" protagonist (as in not high school/middle school).

Mushishi: Zoku-Shou - A sequel to Mushishi. How can that possibly be a bad thing?

Movies
Tamako Love Story - I maybe a KyoAni fan who refuses to watch Tamako Market, but I get a good vibe from this. Also, KyoAni has been putting out some really good movies the last few years.

Jojo is pretty much the archetypal cult series.

The people who watch it and like it, really like it a lot, and generate lots of talk about how much they like it. But there aren't actually all that many of them who see it in the first place - quite a lot of people wouldn't be a fan of it, and it is obvious to these people that they wouldn't, so they don't try it in the first place.

Not that there's anything wrong with being a cult series - indeed in an industry that works like the anime one does it can be a very good thing to be (and there's no doubt that the 2012 Jojo series was a success) - but if you're looking for sheer number of people that will get excited by it, it's never going to be particularly high.

I can't really be bothered to form my own opinions on what to watch based off of the synopsis since it usually doesn't provide me any indication about whether the anime will actually be good. Instead I just watch whatever is most popular, which at the moment looks like it will be:

Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei
No Game No Life
Black Bullet
Akuma no Riddle
Haikyuu
Mekaku City Actors
Gokukoku no Brynhildr
Hitsugi no Chaika

On my list already:
- Ping Pong - because yuasa
- Mekaku City Actors - because shaft
- Ryuugajou Nanana - eh, it's on noitamina
- No Game no Life - could just be a shitty light novel adaptation, but might be better. I quite like the premise.
- Sidonia no Kishi - though by the looks of the PV I think I just ought to read the manga instead

The maybes
- Kamigami no Asobi - I don't know whether I want this to be Diabolik Lovers bad or actually good, starring a female protagonist with a spine. Either way....
- Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii - I think this is going to depend on who's animating it.
- Mahouka - read the first few chapters of the LN and they were mega boring, and that's some godawful character design. What's with all the hype?

Everything else is getting a one episode test if I can spare the time.

Seems I'll have a few other anime added beside the v1 picks.

- Seikoku no Dragonar (interesting concept...dragons was always an interesting subject for me)

- Blade and Soul

- Inugami-san to Nekoyama-san (count me in for moar yuri )

- Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii (interesting synopsis)

- Escha & Logy no Atelier: Tasogare no Sora no Renkinjutsushi (alchemy...might be good)

- Hitsugi no Chaika (might be good judging from synopsis)

- No game No life (synopsis speaks for itself )

- Isshuukan Friends. (this might be one of those anime that will make me bawl my eyes)

And that's about it...quite a few entries added with the new chart.
