It breaks my heart that over the years Yuichi Nakamura is increasingly left to work only with his ongoing franchises.

I know the feeling, like, Suzumura Kenichi is barely in anything anymore. :(

He has a child to take of, that's why. But he still has some roles this year. Unlike Yukino Satsuki or Mamiko noto :( (at least there's Hayamin for the latter).

@RobertBobert well Nakayuu is still active so I'm good. He has a few new roles recently. Unlike Seki Tomokazu or Seki Toshihiko...

This one looks really promising. Out of the whole fall lineup, it's the one I am most curious about besides Gundam.

I'm not even talking about Daisuke Ono. It looks like we finally lived up to a complete generational change in the industry.

This is definitely the best looking of the new Shoujo/Josei adaptation so far, almost all the others disappointed me by screwing up the character designs from the manga/light novel and making the characters uglier! :(

Probably, i'm also seeing Uchiyama Kouki and Okamoto Nobuhiko a lot too.

This isn't actually made in China, it's a Japanese production adapting a Japanese Novel.
