Joujuu Senjin!! Mushibugyo will air in spring. The most interesting bit of news for me is that it's being done by Seven Arcs. The Nanoha/Dog Days/Sekirei people. Didn't expect to see them working on a Weekly Shounen Sunday adaptation in the primary animation production role. Guess they're branching out a bit.

Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W confirmed as a spring anime.

Considering the amount of 2-season anime that are ending now, plus the current season being mostly compost with 1 season ones. Makes spring really interesting with lots of stuff to looks forward to.

Well, I won't miss this one. I finished the first season, so I want to know what will happen.

Looks like the ones that have the most of my attention right now are Shingeki (because Araki), Maou-sama! (because White Fox), Valvrave (because new Sunrise original by Okouchi), and Gargantia (because Urobuchi).

As always, I'll probably end up watching most of the full-length series that get simulcasts, and likely not finding those mentioned above to be my favorites of the season after all. Can I deal with another season of Hayate billed as the followup to that last disaster? If I have enough other shows, probably not.

Given what the lineup looks like, it doesn't look like a strong season like winter is. But of course, I don't exactly learn about these shows until Crunchyroll announces the simulcast offerings. At the moment, Chihayafuru season 2 is the only show continuing into spring and Oreimo season 2 is the only sure bet. RDG and Valvrave look interesting as well. Maybe it's just because I don't see as many shows animate by big name studios this season.

Spring will be interesting because there are only two sequels I'm interested in: UtaPri and OreImo. Everything else is going to have to win me over as a new franchise, but I have a feeling more than a few will.

Yamato is good. I've seen part of it.

Reading through the manga of Maou Sama and I can tell you that this is one to keep an eye on. Heroine and male antagonist from a fantasy world get thrown into our world, without their powers. Looks like a good comedy. The heroine is a tsundere to boot. Could be really good if it translates well.

Aiura, Photo Kano, Yahari and Red Data Girl also look good.

edit: read yahari and its a 50/50 chance of being good. Maou Sama looks like a sure things.

Still getting announcements this late. This one's pedigree doesn't really inspire confidence (Gonzo + GREE mobile game...) but oh my god this cast:

Leviathan: Hayami Saori
Bahamut: Kitamura Eri
Jormungand: Taketatsu Ayana
Syrup: Hanazawa Kana

I'm in heaven. Will watch.
