My spring 2009 anime picks (en)

Short descriptions of all series – HERE. I guess this is the final version of the table.

There’s also a good preview made by Josh.

Time for my little watchlist of doom.

WILL WATCH
1. Fullmetal Alchemist – it doesn’t really need any comment. FMA was one of the first anime series I’ve watched, believe it!
But Shinichiro Miki as Roy? It doesn’t amuse me. Well, okay, maybe a little and only because of Hughes voiced by FujiKei. Lockon and Ali meet one more time, it’s like Gay Bar (read: Antique Bakery) all over again.

2. Eden of the East – I already love it just because of the trailer. Makes me recall all these good old days of watching heartbreaking and full of DRAMA Honey & Clover. Plus, it’s only 11 episodes long.

3. 07-GHOST – here it comes, this season’s dose of fresh shounen-ai subtexts. I like fanservie. It’s healthy.
Manga is serialized in Zero-sum and I can’t see a single woman in the ‘character’ section. And look at these Geass-ish uniforms. Yup, it’s utterly gay.

4. Chi’s Sweet Home S2 – ♥♥♥

5. Dogs: Bullets & Carnage (OVA) – manga is so sweet, but I have to catch up with it. Good thing they’re finally making anime out of it. Haine is voiced by Sakurai, yay.

6. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei (OVA) – what is it for, I dunno. But I kinda miss those insane moe girls.

7. Tsubasa: Shunraiki (OVA) – well, duh. n/c
8. xxxHolic: Shunmuki (OVA) – n/c
IT’S CLAMP, OKAY.

MAY WATCH
9. Shangri-la – just because of Murata’s chara designs.

10. K-ON! – who knows. I don’t like KyoAni that much, am afraid of something Lucky Starish.

11. Sengoku BASARA – I’ve heard it’s really good. The art style is to my liking. And NORIO WAKAMOTO.

12. Senjou no Valkyria – the curse of Persona is here, I can feel it.

13. Pandora Hearts – looks like another generic shounen series, but the chara designs are sweet. My friend recommended it to me, so I’ll check out at least first three episodes.

14. Ristorante Paradiso – something is wrong with this reverse harem animu. Are these men as middle-aged as they look like?…

15. Phantom – ???

RATHER… NOT, BUT I’M CURIOUS A LITTLE
16. Basquash! – oh God, it sounds so retarded.

But seriously, nothing looks that enjoyable apart from… let’s see – Eden of the East, OAVs and maybe FMA? Oh, and 07-GHOST and it’s pointless yaoiness.

Still waiting for KnK next movie.

ABSTAINED ABSTAINED ABSTAINED…

I don’t really find Tomoyo, Ami and a couple of other characters ‘moe’, they’re just awesome. But Saimoe is more of a popularity poll now, so…

Sorry Shiki. Oh, and I forgot to pick Saber, Anya and Illya. Shit happens.
