I'm looking foward to more Tetsuwan Birdy Decode and the new Hajime no Ippo. Need to catch up on Maria-sama ga miteru before I even think about season 4, haha.

I believe that's Natsume Yuujinchou. I could be wrong but, I'm pretty sure that's what it is. We won't be seeing any FMA for awhile. :/

Hmm, nothing really there I'm looking forward to. I'll probably watch Druaga since I watched the first season. Would kind of like to know how it ends and all.

Well, Akikan, a light novel illustrated by Hiro Suzuhira who's my favorite illustrator, will probably be my best choice of the next year!

Probably for the DVD release... Let's hope this won't be bat-chered like Rosario + Vampire. Haha get it? Bat-chered instead of butchered? Ahaha I kill me.
University's Slave
Another Tetsuwan Birdie? SWEET! I'll definitely be watching that. As for the next Shikabane Hime, I still haven't decided if I like the current run or not. . .

Tower of Druaga: Sword of Uruk S2 and Hajime no Ippo is the best selection for Winter. haven't checked the others yet...

white album, akikan, tetsuwan birdie S2 and the tower of druaga s2!

Its definitely worth checking out. Unfortunately... I fear potential disappointment... that said, I don't know the exact titles or descriptions for each so I'll hold back on judging them. There is one particular title that I believe is on the list. Ashita no Youichi. I read this manga a while back and found it quite amusing. I believe there is an anime of it this winter season but I could be wrong... for now, I can't really say much about it but I really hope it doesn't turn into an anime showing fanservice at every given opportunity... the second youngest sister's hair colour also threw me off... *prays it doesn't suck*

3 in the pic on my watch list atm, but in reality I'll definitely end up watching a good portion of everything there.

Out of the above, only Birdy the mighty Decode season 2 is on my must watch since I really enjoyed season 1.
Tower of Druaga as well probably, esp given the way the aegis of Uruk ended...
Oh and much to my chargrin, I'll also be watching Marimite.
Seeing red!!!
So busy with fall season and winter season is coming ,don't really caught interest on any of these anime.

I'm already overwhelmed with this season, but a sequel to Natsume Yuujinchou is going to be promising as well more Marimite. As usual, I'll probably sit around and wait for opinions to flow in before I pick something up.

Hm. Maria-sama gets another run. Probably the only thing on that list I'll check out. Still following some two cour anime into winter.
???Confused???
I am going to be looking out for Queen's Blade, but I'm not sure how they are going to develop a story around it and who they are going to mainly follow...

Tower of Druaga is definitely on my list to watch. The other, well, I don't know much about any of them. Willing to give them a shot, and see what is out there. It all just depends on how many animes I'm watching at the time ^_^

Major 5th season is on my "must watch" list ^^.

Definitly Afro Samurai Resurrection if the voices as cool as in the first season.
Belongs to my free time if give any others a try (always much work to do when christmas is coming *sigh*)

If Hajime no Ippo returns with the same quality as the previous series, then it should pretty much be a must-watch on everyone's list.

Oh Shi$^%^! This is going way too fast...I just started my leeching of the fall shows, and now I again need to pick for the winter lineup...maybe I should just start watching anime 24/7/365 without sleep, then I'd keep up --__--

There is nothing I am really waiting to watch for this winter. I'll give a few series a shot. This fall's lineup was really decent and I am watching quite a bit atm, so pretty much will just be watching them this winter.

Nothing really stands out to me. I'm still trying to watch recently finished series like Strike Witches and Allison. In fact, there are still old classic series that I mean to finally start watching, like Cowboy Bebop...
