If it is another flash anime, there goes spring for me, I guess. Unless I take a liking to a title I'm not familiar with at the moment. Sigh. Being fooled three times now...

The entire season? There's going to be, like, probably 35-40 shows or something (haven't counted lately).

I had a very important qualifier: "Unless I take a liking to a title I'm not familiar with at the moment." The only other show that airs in Spring that I'm familiar with is Fate/Zero. I tend to get most excited about adaptations I'm familiar with, and I'm going into Spring basically blind. Maybe I should have phrased it differently...

It should be a real animated series this time. Xebecs is the animation studio behind the newest season.

Haven't seen the previous ones, and it doesn't look like my kind of thing, but maybe I'll give it a shot since they're all getting added.

I'm interested in checking out this show. The characters were interesting, but not so much with the Flash animation. The opening theme was nice with the characters normally animated.

That's what the Crunchyroll site announcement says:

...
Seasons 1 & 2 of Nyarko-san were short Flash animations, but Season 3 is a fully animated series produced by studio Xebec, home of such anime as Shaman King, Love Hina Again, and Rinne no Lagrange.

Good to have that confirmed.

This show should be much better now that it is getting normal animation than that flash stuff used for the shorts, much like what was used for the theme song. The characters look much better this way with Xebec calling the shots.

Hey guys,

Let's keep the good times rolling with the addition of a NEW show to our spring lineup: OZMA. It will begin broadcasting THIS Saturday at 8:00am PDT.

Good to see it show up somewhere with real translators.
