Summer 2009 Anime
The Summer season is soon upon us - will you need to be making more space on your HDD for it or are most of the shows a load of boo boo?
For me, just from glancing at this lot, I'll stick Tokyo Magnitude (cos I love Bones) and Taisho Yakyu Musume (cos I love JC Staff) on my list.
Tokyo Magnitude PV below.
Taisho Musume below.
I'll probably try some Aoi Hana too.
How many on your watch list? And what do you do with all your anime collection anyway?
Do you delete for new series, copy to DVD, backup to external drive or? I only keep the series that I'm fond of but don't bother to burn to DVD - just keep increasing number of drives and RAIDS.
Via Melonpan. What s the story then? Has he given up on Moe or was that post just for laughs?
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.
If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

Talking about all the series, there are still a stack i have "obtained" but yet to start... lol
Its abt time... the first half of 2009 sure has pretty crappy anime (excluding Gundam 00)
FMA is still rather disappointing now (its a remade, which fan wouldn't be bored by it)...
Enjoying Kamen Rider Decade though

I do the same, while everyone watches the new season I'm like two seasons behind.
Student, Otaku
WOOOOOOOOOOO UMINEKO~~~!!!!!!!!
Spice and Wolf II is on the the top of my list. I'll have to do a bit of homework to see what else to watch.
As for old anime, I keep my favorites on my hard drive and the rest are stored on an external hard drive.

T^T I'm disappointed by next seasons amount of anime. Only about 4 of those are on my watch list.

Yeah, I know what you mean. The only must-watch new anime on my list is Zetsubou Sensei. I'll take a peek at CANAAN, Taishou Yakyuu Musume, and Umi Monogatari though.
I was reading something on Sankaku Complex earlier today about how an overload of moe and mecha anime has contributed to the "anime bubble burst" and I agree. While I'm not a huge mecha fan, I like moe anime. However, it's become too repetitive as of late and the overall quality of the product has gone downhill.
The most recent anime that I've enjoyed watching have got to be Toradora and Akikan. Say what you will about the massive mid-season dorama and epic DVD packaging fail (respectively), but I really enjoyed the two series. The characters in Toradora were moeful without being uber-predictable, although everyone gets super moody halfway through the series. I love how the male lead in Akikan (Daichi) is completely shameless. In an era where spineless, "OMG, boobs!" male leads are the norm, it's a breath of fresh air to finally have a male lead drive the female lead crazy with his perversion to the point of nuking him with a melon.

The only thing I see that's interesting is S2 (?) of Hetalia. Someone in our Anime Club recommended it, so I guess I'll have to check it out, hehe. Other than that, there's nothing else that looks good... and I'm not done with the Spring list. >_<

Spice and Wolf for sure. Want to watch Cobra and Canaan. GA looks a bit like Hidamari Sketch... I didn't like the manga as much, but iI'll give the anime a chance. Cute design, but the story is kinda mediocre.
Ugh and I really need to catch up to Zetsubou-Sensei >_<
大学生徒
http://ichinichijuu.blogspot.com/
Yeah, I've only watched PART of one of the 3 series so far. I've seen like 1-4 of the original Zetsubou, haven't watched Zoku or Goku yet.

6 more animes to add to the 17 I'm already watching from this season. Gonna have a massive backlog once exams are over >_<
The image for Princess Lover looks quite bad. The art in the eroge looks much better. I hate how the art gets killed sometimes in eroge --> anime conversion.
Btw Canaan's story is by Type-Moon in case anyone didn't know. Just want to spread the Type-Moon love ^^

Way too many of these look uninteresting, luckily the Spring season has been kind so far. Lotsa winners this Spring so far. Spice and Wolf and Cobra look promising, and Magnitude looks great.
Student
Like most, I can't wait for Umineko.
I'm looking forward to Axis Powers Hetalia II too. :D
There's probably more that I want to watch, but I'd have to go through and read all of the little descriptions again.
http://www.stefkov.com/
Spice and Wolf and Zetsuboushita!! for sure from that list.
Tokyo Magnitude is a must. I love Bones' anime. I'll check the list for others at a later date.

I thought Umineko was supposed to be some sort of continuation of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Doesn't sound like it at all from its description. Besides that, its only Spice and Wolf I'm interested in. Although I'll probably pick up 1 or 2 more shows after I hear what the blogosphere has to say about them.
Eroge blogger
http://omochikaeri.wordpress.com/
Nah, it's not a continuation (per se). The characters, location and situation are different. It's just that the 'system' is the same with a repeating murder mystery to solve told in a series of question and answer arcs.

I'm going to catch up with BONES, Tokyo Magnitude 8.0
Element Hunters, sounds good, I'll check up on what that show is about ^^;
Thanks for the show information Danny ^^
I usually stream the episodes, if bro downloaded the anime I'm also watching then I watch it with him. :)
Was'nt there a new Beyblade series? I think I'll check on that too :)
こうこうせい
http://stickymochi.blogspot.com
Will probably watch the first episode of all of these. :D And then decide from there.

Tokyo Magnitude caught my attention.
along with all the J.C staff shows ^^

Awwwh man, only two or three are on my watch list. Although I'll be sure to check the rest out. :>

I usually burn them to DVD or buy the series when they are released here.
Student
Out of those the only one I'll definitely watch is Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, but I'll probably end up watching Hetalia too :)
And maybe I'll try Kanamemo, just because there's a nifty program to memorize the Japanese kana that has the same name, but I doubt it ^^;
Student
http://www.mygulpi.com/forum
Element Hunter sounds interesting! I will definitely catch that anime series =]

Eh I think only around eight of these will be on my watch list... although eight is still a lot XD
初音ミク命
Only two on my list so far: Spice and Wolf 2 and CANAAN. I'll wait to see what kind of reviews the other shows get and might start watching them if they're good.
Casshern - Student
The only appealing to me is Tokyo Magnitude. I use to watch Cobra on Jetix/Fox Kids in the UK. I won't have any of these really on my watch list since I just finished watching G Gundam and Ghost Hunt and will be watching Blood+,Darker than Black and D Gray Man and re watching Monster and Eureka Seven and Gurren Lagen. :D
I work at the hangar beside the airport
i already buy 1T Hard Disk just to store all my movies,anime,manga and of course other personal file in there..
there is still more to stuff in that 1T..
thanx for the list..
now i can start download..
???Confused???
I'm prolly only going for Zan Zetsubou Sensei...but some of the others look intriguing as well...especially if it's from BONES...
Not too many look good...it looks like I'm gonna see the same as danny.

i watch less than half because i had no time. i only watch those anime are in top list or best recommended by anime fans.
Student
http://miri.textcube.com/
Zan Sayonara Zetsubo Sense and Aoi Hana will be on my watchlist.
I'm also planning to watch a few episodes of Winter Sonata just for the lulz (lulz would be more appropriate than lols in this case).

Aoi hana FTW.

I can't believe Studio DEEN is doing Umineko. That's like the one reason not to watch it!

http://haruhiist.blogspot.com/
might just watch Yoku Wakaru Gendai Mahou and Seitokai no Ichizon. Tokyo Magnitude might be decent to watch, and also Aoi Hana. summer list doesnt seem too epic. well atleast i've got plenty of space left on my HDD after dozens of series i've finished downloading.

*cry* the only thing i'm prob going to watch is Umineko no Naku Koro ni.... I love 07th Expansion
student
There's nothing particularly interesting for me on that list, to be honest. For me the summer and winter seasons are usually a bit weak when compared to the anime starting in spring and autumn.
I'll try to watch at least the first episode of most of those series to know what they are all about and pass the rest of my spare time with watching/re-watching older series like Clannad, Clannad After Story and Card Captor Sakura. :)

I've just started on the Goku series of Zetsubou Sensei. So far it's not as amusing/humorous as i thought it would be (don't understand most of the references @ @'). I might give the third series a try, that is if i get past this one first..
Not sure about the other releases.. Will give Ukkari Penelope a try? -w-'
Student
I think I'm gonna try all of them except for the last one seems childish. Need a new HDD. My last one broke and it was almost full. *sigh*

Element Hunters looks interesting. ^^

What's noticeable in summer's anime line-up is that it consist of mainly a girl as a main character. I don't know if it's just me or is summer another battle of the MOE?

I don't see any Summer anime that interests me at the moment. I am still with the Spring anime with Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Valkyria Chronicles, and K-ON!

http://omochikaeri.wordpress.com/
Umineko!!!!! I'm so glad it's pushed up from fall release. That means quicker for me to see the Ep3 chars! >w<b
That's the one I'll definitely watch. I'll probably check the rest out when they come out. I thought about getting Sora no Manimani when it first came out as manga.

I put em on a harddrive.. so yeah.. I'm acquiring more External harddrives

Hmmm, still working on getting up to date with my older anime, but I'll certainly be watching Zan Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei and a little Hetalia~
Hobby fan
Umineko for sure!
I don't know if I'm gonna have enough time to spend watching anime but this one is a must for me.
I hope an animated version of Mirai Nikki in the future, that would be great!

maybe just winter sonata for me. ('~')
University Student
Winter Sonata! XD Definitely! Why? Maybe it's one anime that my Mother would watch with me and and sisters and my brother who is a k-drama otaku. My mother really likes the animation for the Final Fantasy titles but no others, maybe I can change her mind about other versions of japanese animation.
Will watch probably more than half.

To tell you the truth, none of them are gonna be on my watch-list since none of them appeal to me that much. Then again, that might change in the future. We'll see.
Starving writer
Winter Sonata, and Aoi Hana for sure. Aoi Hana's a no brainer - I liked the manga, and I like yuri in general. ^^ As for Winter Sonata, I was actually going to watch the drama previously, but since there's an anime coming out for it... Guess not. ^^;;
I also have Magnitude 8.0 and CANAAN planned.
Otherwise I'll be "watching" textbooks and notes. June is exam month, and I have extra classes in July. ._.;;
I generally burn to DVDs. Possessive nature deems that I keep everything I download. I really can't afford a HDD every few months. DVDs can be a tad bit inconvenient, but they're a dime a dozen nowadays, so I have no reservations about buying them ^^;;
Love the music in the Aoi Hana PV, I might add. Anyone got a title? *_*

I really see nothing that comes out at me. SZS, Spice and Wolf, and the art class ones are the only ones I've heard of before. Winter Sonata sounds vaguely familiar too...

Agreed. O_O

My watch List for summer is
Zan Sayonara
Bakemonogatari
Umineko no naku koro ni
and Hetalia 2
Gotta keep it low to catch up with old stuff.

I will watch all of them as fansubs are released and drop accordingly.
From the looks of them, more than half of them are interesting and on top of my watch list (less likely to be dropped) are:
Umineko
Spice and Wolf II
San Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
Canaan
Hetalia Axis Powers 2

BTW is it just me or the umineko banner is a ripped off of phoenix wright lol?

Nothing familiar really. I haven't finished the first spice and wolf yet either. So, none of these are on my watch list as of yet. I'll wait until people start reviewing these series to decide if I should watch or not.

doesnt seem to be that many interesting ones, probably gonna watch most of them since I have a lot of free time

I might check out some of these, but I'm trying not to become addicted to any TV shows over the summer. Too much needs to be done! So little motivation...

Some cool looking stuff, I am really looking forward to the second season of Spice & Wolf! I have a 1tb external drive that I bought to use exclusively for Anime & Jdramas. I think I have used up about 600gb of it so far haha!
I just picked up an external hdd today because I was DL'ing too much anime. I'm a little disappointed with next season, only 3 or 4 I will probably watch.

None of the shows in the lineup seem all that interesting to me. I've actually started to phase out watching anime and I've started reading manga instead. I think it's mostly because of the transition from poor college student to overworked corporate code monkey =.=;

Hetalia Season 2 other than I might watch if someone recommends something to me. But the summer season looks dismal as usual.
http://akari-nyan.deviantart.com/
About 9-10 on my list. Maybe less. I'll probably drop some depending on how it goes for the first few epis...^^;

There's a lot on there which I may be interested in ... although how many I'll watch through or drop I don't know.
There should be space on the Raid array to take them although I may need more storage come the autumn

This season looks very good so far, I checked this out a while ago thanks to Chartfag for making this. But as it is only version 1, i'm sure there is alot more to be added, last time it got to Version 4. Plenty of those are in my watch list, especially magnitude 8.0
浦の引き篭り
http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/3219/haruhimemew.gif
I'll go for Zetsubou Sensei (Zetsuboushita~~~!!!) and Spice and Wolf, that's for sure.
Apart from those, I'll also check out Canaan (did someone say TYPE-MOON designs?), Taisho Musume and Tokyo Magnitude :3
SOS Brigade Leader
Bakemonogatari is on my watchlist and CANAAN
Umineko no Naku Koro ni and Aoi Hana for me. Altough Umineko has a high change of of fail if they make it like Higurashi. (~4 episodes per chapter.)
http://kikiyasha.deviantart.com/
there only 2 on my list and that is hetalia and sayonara zetsubou sensei

I watch most of my anime online. If I can't find it online, then I'll torrent it. After I've seen it, I delete it, and if I feel the need to watch it again later, I take that as a sign that I should probably go buy it, assuming it's been released on DVD.
As for upcoming shows this summer, I'm not terribly impressed. I think the trend in the polls tend to agree. Remember that thread about a decline in anime viewership?
An anime should be made to communicate some kind of idea or philosophy. It needs a sense of overall purpose. I haven't been seeing that a lot lately.

Cobra !!!!!!!!!!!!! i loved this anime years ago !!! can wait for new one !!!
Spice and Wolf 2 definitely on my watch list, others i will go through a few episodes and will continue if i like it. About storing the anime, initially i burned to dvd, now i just add hdds.
~Undine~
http://bluebluewave.wordpress.com
I will definitely watch "Spice & Wolf II" and "Aoi Hana".
Series I'll probably sample are "Canaan", "Geijutsuka Art Design Class", "Kanamemo" and "Sora No Manimani".
I usually keep a series on hard drive until I've watched it or assembled all episodes, then I back it up on DVD. Currently have 4 cases with 390 CD/DVD's each nearly full and at the prices per Gigabyte I really should switch to external hard drives or NAS.
Student
Only 2 animes from the list really peak my interest, Tokyo Magnitude and CANAAN kind of disappointed but meh. I keep all my anime on external HD and only keep the keep the ones I have finished and enjoyed or loved!

I think I'll watch a few after the reviews...

I'll probably try kanamemo first, looks and sounds cute.

X_x I haven't even begun the Fall 2008 stuff yet. I'm so far behind...*sigh* Guess I should just keep collecting. Some day, some day...
Items that've caught my eye are Tokyo Magnitude 8.0, Seitokai no Ichizon, Princess Lover!, and Kanamemo. Going to keep watching Zetusbou Sensei as well; the original Spice and Wolf is still stuck on my waiting-list. ^^;
none
I'll probably check out Aoi Hana since Hourou Musuko is like my favorite manga and Ill check out some others too.
Student
Definitely will watch Spice and Wolf II, others I am not sure about yet. Probably will try to check the first episode if I have time.
And about my anime collection: I don't write any episodes to DVDs or CDs, they stay on the hard drive until I run out of space and need to erase the older ones. But if I really like the series, then I usually buy the box set. This has also the advantage of getting all the extras and supporting the show:)

Spice and Wolf and Toyo Magnitude for sure. But let's not forget Rebuild of Evangelion 2! :) There's a new trailer out, too.
I'm looking forward to Spice & Wolf II but that's it for the summer season...

LOL Hetalia has a season 2? Need to check that out sometime! I'm currently on Spice & Wolf 2.
One anime genre is missing on that release chart... I'll just keep it to myself though. ^^;

Watch-list:
Tokyo Mag 8.0
Umineko

Winter Sonata (so they really did this?!)
Bakemonogatari
Sora no AmamiyaMana- I mean manimani
Yoku Wakaru Gendai Mahou
Umi Monogatari
Kanamemo
Princess Lover
Seitokai no Ichizon.
Wow. Much more than I thought at first. Well, I'll give them a whirl and decide whether to continue or not later.
A lot of school girls love this season. :3 And I went "lolwut?! its already near summer?!" When I saw this. Eden of The East is just at ep5 and new ones are popping up soon.. Definitely flooding my HDD.

Can't wait for the new Zetsubou Sensei, probably the only other one i'll watch is Kanamemo.

Doesn't look like I'll see much of the next season, the for sure's on my list so far are:
-Umineko
-Spice and Wolf 2

Spice and Wolf II, Cobra and Canaan (Type-moon for the rescue o/). Maybe that one from Bones and that´s all

http://otakujanai.org
Spice and wolf 2 will be my first option,but im interested in canaan and tokyo magnitude too ...the lack of mecha in this season is sad :(
btw in most of the cases i erase for new series but when i like to much some show then i copy to dvd
College Student
Hmmm just from looking at the pictures and descriptions I think i'll give Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 and CANAAN a go. I've not had much to watch recently, just Naruto week by week but as most if you know it is really slow. I'm just awaiting Initial D Stage 5 if it ever comes out!!

Spice and Wolf II and Canaan are the only ones I'm really interested. But I'll give it a try to all first episodes and see if there's any good surprises.

less than half of those titles are on my watch list
I'm looking forward to Spice and Wolf II, Zan Sayonara Zetsubo no Sensei, Tokyo Magnitude, CANAAN, and Umineko to name a few ^^
Usually, I burn the titles that I'm fond of after that they are completed. The ones that I'm not fond of were dropped and got deleted from oblivion XD
Nothing really stands out for me, I'll probably only bother watching a handfull of those, might watch more or less depending on what it's about, can't read that small writing.
So far, I'm looking forward to Umineko and I'm curious about Cobra.
I'll wait and see what the general consensus is on everything else.

i will hold out for reviews by bloggers before deciding , but tokyo magnitude does look like it has potential...
About that......
2 series have caught my eyes instantly

Only two series on that list that I want to see. Spice & Wolf II, Umineko no Naku Koro ni.
Bakemonogatari sounds interesting. I may check out Tokyo Magnitude because it is from BONES.

A Fuyusona anime?!?
Finally an anime aimed at the 40+ female crowd.
They should make a Pe Yon Jun nendroid too. It would be a big seller in Sugamo...

Wolf and Spicy II - Horoo!!!!
Zetsubou sensei - Zetsubou again!
Canaan - TypeMoon product
Bakemonogatari - Interest in Nisioisen
Yoku Wakaru Gendai Mahou - Because of Nonaka Ai!
Umi Monogatari - seem good..
Seitokai no ichizon - read the novel, interest in how they put it in anime

Canaan looks good, saw saw of the visuals in Newtype a while back - reminded me of the 'girls with guns' genre, which has perhaps been a bit neglected of late? Zetsubou Sensei is one I need to catch up on. Apart from those, I'll just watch those that are recommended by friends as well as catching up on some older shows ^^

I would possibly try out every anime airing for the summer season..though I'm more looking forward to Tokyo Magnitude 8.0
Looks original in its concept from the looks of it ^^;
But there's still the spring season..that I'm not done yet ^^

I'm interested in a few, but I will usually read some reviews and end up watching a few more based on them. ^^

I'm only liking Tokyo Magnitude and Taisho Musume, which is sad because the rest is basically the same ol' crap we get every season. Now whenever I see schoolgirls in the pics I'm skipping it for a better show...
Cobra: Rokunin no yushi only
Watching too many moe anime....need something else to balance up.

Tokyo Magnitude looks pretty. But what did I expect? It's Bones, they're masters. Despite that, I don't know what I'll watch yet.
Muck Yeah!
How long did I wait for this!
Finally a calm and beautiful /u/ manga that doesn´t have koads of klichées is an anime now. I realy hope they will do it well.

There's nothing that's really a "Must watch", but I would LIKE to try out a few. Probably will have time to watch a lot of them, though, since school's out in the summer ^^ Might try CANAAN first...
Student
Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei and Hetalia are getting the new seasons, so I'm going to keep watching them. :) They're both a good watch.

All the titles are a tad bit unfamiliar to me... So I guess I need to read some blog and decide which one is good....^^
For now, Canaan is definitely, and the only one in my watch list...XD

Honestly, not many interest me. I'd be all over "Spice and Wolf II" if I saw the first season. Normally, I'd be on JC series like crazy, but because they killed the "Kimikiss" anime (and I don't even remember if I saw all of episode 1 or not), I can't use the big studio name method anymore.

I wish some more mecha and a love triangle to the heroes. Or a bad guy who fell in love with one of the female hero and ultimatelly sacrifice himself to save the girl he likes. I wish they bring back the brave series with a remaster HD upgrade visual. They did it in Dragonball Z Kai.

definitely hetalia. then zetsubou sensei and tokyo magnitude. maaaybe will end up following others, but we'll see.
this time i should be able to seem them live on tv >=3 (except for hetalia i guess)
That new Cobra is definitely on my list. Loved the original series, which was first anime i saw back in the 80's. Also liked the new OVA aired a while back, even tho it's ending was a bit let down.

Ukari Penelope has the best DESCRIPTION!! XD HAHA
"The adventures of a naive three year old koala and her friends" XD HAAHAA
IM AM TOTALLY GOING TO WATCH THAT!! XD haha=3

Only one that looks interesting right now is Umineko, since it's based on a game made by the same people who did Higurashi. Maybe the astronomy one too, but then again I'd probably only be watching for the astronomy and there's not likely to be much of that in it.
This saso looks great! Eureka 7 movie is coming out too ^*^

What they are making a Tokyo Magnitude anime? I read the first volume ot Tokyo Magnitude manga by Furuya Usumaru and although it's the same concept, the main characters are completely different. The main protagonists were a gothic lolita girl in her 20's and a guy of the same age out of university and trying to get his first job as a salary man. http://www.mangaverse.net/html/tokyomagnitude8couvjap.htm
I wonder how different and similiar the anime and manga will be. The anime seems to take the approach of a young girl's point of view.

This season I won't watch any new series.
Maybe Tokyo Magnitude, I love Bones too.
I got tons of series yet to see, from last year and before.
I burn all the series I download, in separate DVD's (I don't mix 2 titles on the same disc, even if it's only 13 chapters and lets 1GB free on it). Actually have around 200 and they're starting to use a lot of space :S
There aren't any that really catch my attention in that list, so I may not pick up any. Perhaps this is a good excuse to spend my time more productively, like getting back into PHP or learn C++
As for storage, I'm the same as Danny here; leave ones I like on HDD and keep increasing storage as required.
