Shiki is the only show I know I will definitely be following in the summer.

I will also watch Osaka Hamlet if anyone bothers to sub it, assuming it is going to be released at all.

I might follow Highschool of the Dead because of Madhouse and half-naked girls kicking zombie butt, but my expectations aren't too high for it *cough*censorship*cough*.

I might watch Mitsudomoe just to see how much of the perverted humour they can get past the censors. I already know that while there wasn't much ecchi, it is firmly a lolicon anime.

I will check out a couple of episodes of both Occult Gakuin and Ookamisan just to see if they anything more to offer than generic anime romcom. If Gakuin's female lead is a Haruhi clone, which has a high possibility considering the synopsis,, then it is an instant drop.

I have slightly more hope for Ookamisan, but I still have doubts about how good it's going to be.

Nothing else there looks interesting, apart from that Tono to Issho OVA, but that's not an anime that will be followed every week.

If everything flops, then I might check out The Legend of the Legendary Heroes just because of the LOL-worthy title and the fact it is only one word away from the name of another anime.

I'm going to try to watch as much as I can.

Some of the ones I am looking forward to are:

High school of the dead
Shiki

I hope they do a good job with nuririhyon no mago and follow the manga properly, not to mention put appropriate voice actors for each one.

Kuroshitsuji 2 is on my "must watch" list, though like Gorim, I'm concerned its going to be a sucky sequel. The new main character, if I remember correctly, is pretty opposite of Ciel, which I suppose they didn't just want a Ciel-clone in there, but I really liked his personality. However, if I get some Grell and Undertaker action I'll be plenty happy even if the rest of it sucks.

Everything else is kind of up in the air for me. High School of the Dead looks interesting though along with Shi Ki, Nararihyon no Mago and Ookamisan no Shicinin no Tomotachi, so I might watch those if they can hook me in during the first few episodes, otherwise I'd rather just keep plugging away at my PTW list.

I think I'll give Kuroshitsuji 2 a chance... with great terror in my heart. o_O I'm excited that Sakyupon is going to be the seiyuu for the new butler, but Sebastian was pretty awesome.

High School of the Dead and Shi Ki also look pretty interesting.

=-( I wish the second season of Letter Bee wasn't so far away.

Anyways, I'll be watching all of them, depending on how they go, I'll drop what I doesn't interest me, although I'm pretty easily entertained, as well as annoyed.

I dunno about Highschool of the Dead, seeing as so many people here are deciding it pick it up.

Either the writer was on hiatus for like a year, or he's still on hiatus. The story didn't went to anywhere close to a climax yet, or a good buildup of events to end a first season. Nor would I say we had enough character development worthy to be as long as a series, but I guess 12-13 episodes is good for a first season or something. So I guess if it's around 12-13 episodes, I'll likely look forward to it. Or even 23-24, but I dunno a good enough place to end a first season tho. I would think at least when the group would make it to the airport, but the writer didn't get that far yet (or did he?)

I'll only be watching Shiki.

Maybe after the season is over I'll look at Highschool of the Dead - because I heard wonders and beyond about the manga.

High school of the Dead is the only thing that I have planned, but hey never know what might peak my interests one day while looking through anime lists. Although seeming Shiki has a high number of votes, I will look into it also.

High School of the Dead seems like it'd be interesting if not for the excessive fanservice. And I would watch Sengoku Basara 2 but I first need to watch Sengoku Basara 1.

Yeah, it's looking like a pretty dry season of anime. I'm totally cool with that. I'm planning on watching a lot of shows streaming over break without getting distracted by the current season.

I don't really see myself being able to finish any of these shows. I'll consider watching the first episode of Shiki, Osaka Hamlet and Occult Gakuin. Maybe Amagami too for that one girl.

The Black Lagoon OVA is a must watch for me though.

Overall, it's a pretty mediocre looking selection to choose from. My expectations aren't very high so if anything turns out to be really excellent I'll be pleasantly surprised :)

In romanized Japanese, it'd be "Densetsu no Yūsha no Densetsu" -- with the short name of "denyuden".

I've watched the PV and a secret PV on the official site, looks darn promising. I'll be watching it.
