Summer 2012 Anime Chart

[Buckeye]

Mod edit: Updated summer chart 2012-06-24: http://minus.com/lb2htiqSkcalri


The spring 2012 anime season has not even kicked off yet, and already a first draft of the anime chart for the summer season has already been published.

Summer 2012 Chart (http://static.neregate.com/2012/03/neregate.com-Summer-2012-Anime-v1.png)

It's a long ways away, so there are bound to be changes to the chart between now and the start of the summer season as this is only tentative at this point.

PV for Senkyo To Chocolate’s Sweet Bishoujo is up (http://seventhstyle.com/2012/03/31/senkyo-to-chocolates-sweet-bishoujo-pv/). I like the direction the art and music is going.

Yeah the character designs of KoiSen are looking like one of the tops of Summer. Hopefully the show is up to par in other areas.

AIC Build has done great stuff so far and that looks really attractive. I will be curious to check it out.

AIC Build
This is the part that excites me the most. Both of the shows they've done so far have been among my favorites of their respective seasons and gotten imports from me. Go for the hat trick, AIC Build.

Very nice! The anime character designs looks good. I've been very excited about this ever since the news came out about the anime adaptation. One of the few eroge I've mostly followed since seeing previews in Dengeki G's magazine a year or two ago. Chisato <3.

One half of me is worried that it'll be a bland adaptation, but, since AIC Build is working on it, the other half of me is feeling okay about it.

I feel like this is already an instant import for me already.

I just noticed the existence of the novels/manga last week. But I didn't realize it was already getting animated or that they were based on an eroge until I read this thread. The animation looks very, very nice.

On the one hand, I've yet to import an eroge adaptation. On the other hand, I've imported/am importing both previous AIC Build shows.

And that makes the 4th show for Summer on my list of shows to keep an eye out for as possible imports.

[Draneor]

On the one hand, I've yet to import an eroge adaptation. On the other hand, I've imported/am importing both previous AIC Build shows.

I'm unlikely to import it, since I've set the bar significantly higher as I'm trying to build up my savings. Kono Naka ni Hitori, Imouto ga Iru does catch my eye though because, you know, imouto... It's been a while since OreImo aired.

But yeah. I did not buy nor have I played KoiChoco. The art style in the previews I read really peaked my interest though. The CGs look gorgeous.

[Fencedude]

Good god. MuvLuv Alternative Total Eclipse and Horizon Season 2, at the same time?

Can the world handle this concentration of skintight bodysuits?

Man...more manga to add to a potentially large order. I haven't bought a Dengeki G's magazine in a while...so I totally forgot about the manga adaptation (I wonder if it's still serialized in it). Good to know that it has two tankoubon volumes already out and there's, what looks to be, the side-story manga.

I've been thinking about playing it since I own a copy, but I just don't really play games on my PC. I might wait for the all-ages version that's supposedly coming out on the PSP. The main route is the only one I want to play through really, anyways.

Oh yea...I think the abbreviation is KoiChoco.

One more show has been added to the summer slate and that is the second season of Dog Days (http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2012/04/01/dog-days-season-2-to-air-in-july). Considering the name of the title is often associated with the summer season that this is the perfect time for airing this.

It's time for me to watch Season 1. I hope I'll like the show.

Most up to date chart.

Sequels claim probably three of my import spots already, with Dog Days, Yuri Yuri, and Rinne no Lagrange.
As for other sequels, Moyashimon and Horizon should be good.
I have high expectations for Joshiraku, Tari Tari and Kokoro Connect too, as far as new shows go.
Kono Naka ni Hitori, Imouto ga Iru! is anticipated as well for imouto, but even more because of Studio Gokumi.
And Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita has always really grabbed my eye for the main girl's design, though the goofy chicken people and faeries will take some time to get sold on.

[FUNiOP]

Ones that Interest Me So Far:

Muv-Luv Alternative, Natsuyuki Rendezvous, Rinne no Lagrange 2, TARI TARI, Rinne no Lagrange: Kamogawa Days, Accel World Specials, Code Geass Nunally in Wonderland, Code Geass Gaiden: Boukoku no Akito, Dantalian no Shoka: Ibarahime, Blood-C: The Last Dark, Berserk Oudon Jidaihen II: Doldrey Kouryaku, Rurouni Kenshin: Shin Kyoto Hen Part II, Naruto Shippuuden: Road to Ninja, Fairy Tail Movie: Houou no Miko

I was really looking forward to Tari Tari, but the PV really disappointed me. Kokoro Connect has intrigued me since I first heard about it, so it's definitely a watch.

As for OVAs/Special Broadcasts/Movies, I'm looking forward to Hyouka's 7/7 broadcast and I'm curious about Dantalian's OVA.

Nothing else captures my attention at this moment. Meh, at least Hyouka is continuing and hopefully Hanasaku Iroha Home Sweet Home will surface in Fall.

[MelancholicMariya]

Joshiraku and Kokoro Connect are the two summer anime I'm most interested in right now.

[tytan88]

This is going to be one fabulous summer. usually I get 1 or 2 ones I like, but there are upwards of 5 to 6 ones this summer. luckily I am not working 7 days a week! Can't wait!:bigsmile:

Nice. Koichoco continues to be my #1 show for summer. Sword Art Online looks to be good too.

Other shows I'll check out: Tari Tari, Kokoro Connect, Ebiten, Dakara Boku wa H ga Dekinai, and Kono Naka ni Hitori Imouto ga Iru.

[MelancholicMariya]

Oh I totally forgot. Sword Art Online looks great. I'm pretty excited for that.

[Draneor]

Nice. Koichoco continues to be my #1 show for summer.

Same. That, Dog Days, and Kokoro Connect will compete for #1 most likely. The premise of SWO just seems ridiculous though (even if I've heard good reviews and it overlaps with my interests). I ended up checking out a little bit of the manga for Konno Naka ni Hitori Imouto ga Uri--given the imouto part--but I don't have high expectations for it. But hey... OreImo aired in 2010.

[Damius]

Except Dog Days', what are the Aniplex shows for Summer?

According to Aniplex JP's website, they are doing: KoiChocho, Sword Art Online and Moyashimon for Summer season.

Ok, thanks for the info. I hope none of them will end up to be an import for me...unless the issues with Amazon are fixed.

Odds are it'll just be DD for me, thankfully. Going to be a pain in the ass placing separate orders for that. I'm pretty confident SAO and Moyashimon won't be imports, but KoiChoco remains to be seen.

[ultimatemegax]

As usual, it seems tvk has leaked (http://d.hatena.ne.jp/nanamibeya/20120607/p1) episode counts of their shows for summer.

Tari Tari: 13 episodes
La storia della Arcana Famiglia: 12-13 episodes (listed as one cour)
Jinrui wa Suitaishimashita: 12 episodes
Hakuoki Reimeiroku: 12 episodes
Sword Arts Online: 25 episodes
Kokoro Connect: 13 episodes
Horizon season 2: 13 episodes
Dog Days season 2: 13 episodes

They'll also continue AKB0048 (until July), Accel World (until September), and Hyouka (until September).

Nice and the final chart shows the days each show will debut. July 6th looks to be the only day that I'll be checking out more than two days.

It looks like the times are wrong for two shows - Hagura Yuusha is listed at 10:30 and H Dekinai is at 11:00 (I guess they are correct if you don't follow 24H time). I would find it funny if those two shows did air on a Friday morning.
