I'm thinking of getting the Project Itoh novels tbh soon. Good to see another update on Sidonia. It might be a few more months away but each PV gets me hyped.

>Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo (OVA)
Additional cast members for the series have been revealed.
Full anime adaptation when?

Anyways, I predict both Gangsta and Death Parade to debut for Spring.

RIP Naya Rokurou

i heard 8bit handling Absolute Duo, i hope it doesn't end like grisaia

oh, fafnir doesn't have a harem genre, i guess i'll watch this but the synopsis is kinda generic...like bahamut, arsterick, blade dance which are harem shows IMO...

OMG I was just enjoying Rokuro Naya as Degsby from Logh recently, and always look back at his performance as Senseui in YYH as memorable... I even pointed out his roles to family members recently when we heard him.. Rip Legend, you will be missed.

Holy shit, I stopped Okane ga Nai a long time ago---was sick of it, and it was boring. Surprised it's going to end. Maybe I'll catch up to it when it does.

"Hey, assbutt!"—Castiel, Supernatural

"Do you ever have a problem where you just don't know how to reply to an argument-- not because you don't know the answer, but you just don't where to begin? Like, the foundation of knowledge you'd need to impart to this person before you could even begin to drag them out of their sinkhole of ignorance would cost thousands of dollars, if it were coming from a University?" -MAL in a nutshell.

Absolute Duo, Fafnir and Testament sound so bad, jesus, Winter is looking so weak, outside of sequels I'm not really looking forward to anything in particular.
Looking forward to Project Itoh though.

Do you reckon Buddy Complex will get a second season? It didn't seem that popular.

I thought the whole revenge of Bizon arc would be a 2nd season but it was only a two episode special.

Lol I know that, I just wanted to post that comment cuz it would be nice to have a 2nd season but yeah, like you say, it's not popular enough to get a 2nd season.
