So Autumns list of anime is out now.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

[Felius]

uhhh, I really want to see the last exile one.

[Neonivek]

I REALLY REALLY want to see Persona 4 anime

At the same time I really can't make myself watch it.

Honestly the Persona 4 game was great (honestly it is one of the few games I played where the side stories were a LOT more interesting then the main story when all things were said and done. Almost all the side characters were well developed over a period of time and I became genuinly interested in knowing all about them. Even to the point of playing the game multiple times so I could complete them all)

But there is NO way an anime based on it could ever do it justice without REALLY cutting things down.

I mean... I saw the Valkyria Chronicles Anime and wow... It is like they completely paved away the character's personality in order to fit them all into steriotypical anime roles (and they were already steriotypes already!?!). I'll never forgive them for what they did to Welkin! I connected with him and found him pleasantly odd but not a space case.
-That is all I can say really... some of the worst anti-climaxes come from the knowledge of the differences between the anime and the game... but those are so spoiler heavy.

So Autumns list of anime is out now.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It's been out for a while, plus there is the whole new chart with a couple of new shows and updated airing dates.

Here's my list anyway:

Busou Shinki Moon Angel
Shinryaku!? Ika Musume
Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon
Bakuman 2
Working'!!
Phi Brain: Kami no Puzzle
Tamayura
Chihayafuru
Mashiro-Iro Symphony
Maden-ki!
Persona 4 The Animation
Boku ha Tomodachi ga Sukunai
Last Exile: Fam, the Silver Wing
Shakugan no Shana III
Mobile Suit Gundam AGE
Chibi Devil
Guilty Crown
Fate/Zero
Un-Go
Kimi to Boku
Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai!!
Mirai Nikki
C³
Lupin

And of course the glory that is the Hidamari Sketch specials. I might watch the ZnT reairing, although I dunno if anyone will bother to rerelease subs on better raws seeing as SS-Ayu hardsubbed the first two seasons. I might watch Shimanchu MiRiKa but theres no fucking way it will get subs.

Working'!!'s preair first episode was more of the same, except with far more Poplar and Yamada, and much less of Inami. Thank fuck for that. Her punching Takanashi got old about an episode after she was introduced, but nope she just hogged screen space for the rest of the show.

Boku Ha Tomodachi Ga Sukunai and Denpa Onna are by the same guy, so I was expecting similarity, but the general feel is exactly the same. The OVA was really just introducing the characters, so there's not really much to say it about it now. The premise seems quite interesting though, so i'm looking forward to when the TV version starts on the 6th.

Busou Shinki Moon Angel is another 5 minute show, although this one is webcasted. I wasn't expecting much, what can you really get from a 5 minute episode? It seems to be about some tiny girl in a battle suit who has made an enemy of some other tiny girl. Hard to judge after 5 minutes, but the action scenes were cool, even if it was some derpy CG.

[ToonyMan]

From what I read of Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai it's like a really really corrupt Haruhi Suzumiya with many many eroge games and insane situations  Although I've only read the manga. 

Also, tell me how you like Mirai Nikki.  I liked it about 60% of the time while the other 40% made me very very disappointed.  The main lead was pretty wimpy 99% of the time.

[tehc]

I've never read Mirai Nikki, so i'm completely clueless. The only shows that the director has worked on before are Shuffle (everyone has mixed opinions on this one) and Minami-ke Okawari, which drifted hard enough away from the first season that some people refuse to consider it a second season. It is a confirmed 26 episode run however, so we'll just need to wait and see.

[ToonyMan]

I'll probably watch the Mirai Nikki anime too along with Fate/Zero.  Not sure if I want to watch the Boku wa Tomodachi anime...

EDIT:
Wow this editor's username for a Ubel Blatt chapter is "fuckingdamnit".

[Haspen]

* Haspen is actually waiting only for Last Exile 2 :3

[Levi]

They are remaking Hunter X Hunter?  Seems like an odd choice, I rather they just make more episodes.   

[Leafsnail]

Man episode 25 of Kaiji was intense.  Craaaazy.  Gotta love the metaphor world.

Also Ichijou:

Spoiler: Not much of a spoiler, just a funny face and some swearing (click to show/hide)

[ToonyMan]

He looks like some mythological metaphorical god in that frame.

EDIT:

Spoiler: Di..did the newest Bleach chapter actually make me laugh?! (click to show/hide)

Wow that is amazing.  Dat face.  Oh my gog.  It's so bad it's good.

[Trapezohedron]

New Kaminomi manga chapter today. That is all.

[ToonyMan]

New Kaminomi manga chapter today. That is all.

Yep.  Not much happened though, oh well.  Redhawk released another omake too but I found it pretty uninteresting.

I'm cracking up over on this Kaiji thread in /a/ currently.

BAKA-KAIJI

...Man, Ichijou dressing as Asuka is soooooooo weird.

I don't know what to think of this.

[quinnr]

Lots of great anime this fall...am I the only one going to check out that 'Ben-tou' one?
And the Last Exile continuation, of course, despite the lack of old main characters

[Hawkfrost]

Am I the only one who on seeing the word "high school" in an anime's description instantly stops reading and looks for something else?
