    Majikano
    by Takeaki Momose (Miami Guns (art and story), and art for the RahXephon manga.)
    Yoshikawa Haruo was born in magical family, but he is a quite common boy, and doesn't have any magical power. One day, Ayumi, a daughter of Mamiya, a historic family in magical world, appears. According to her, she was cursed when she looked into the fortune mirror. The only person who breaks the curse is Haruo who was reflected in the mirror with her. Ayumi became a maid of Yoshikawa, and she begins to make approaches to him. On the other hand, three sisters, Maika, Chinatsu, and Haruno, are trying to help him from her. Because Haruo doesn't know the three sisters were witches, only he is out of the picture. However, Ayumi often makes troubles not only home but also in school, and he is involved in the troubles without his will. Furthermore, Kurosu Yuri who is the student leader and loves Haruo secretly, and Nijihara Masuzu, an exorcist girl who has a power to expel them, join the fight and love-battle is getting hotter.

    Fate/Stay Night
    The story takes place in an ordinary Japanese town, Fuyuki City. Hidden from society, there has been a deadly war going on in this town. Seven sorcerers known as "Masters" summon a powerful familiar called "Servants" and they all fight each other till the last one. The last one is said to attain the Holy Grail which will grant them a wish. Only a few knows when this War started and what the Holy Grail is, but the war was about to begin again this year.

    The main character is Emiya Shirou, who lost his parents in a fire and was adopted by a man who called himself a sorcerer. Admiring his step father, he has been training himself to be a sorcerer. However, he had no talent and he could barely use one type of sorcery. His step father has already passed away, and today he's a sorcerer without any skills or knowledge. He is involved in the War of the Holy Grail when he accidentally summons Saber, who is said to be the strongest servant of all...

    Lemon Angel Project
    In 1987, there were a group of actors who voiced the roles for the hit ecchi TV animation Cream Lemon. Back then, they were called the Lemon Angels. Now, in 2006, they are planning a revival of the Lemon Angels...that's about all I can make of this so far.

    Revival Sky ~Rescue Wings~ Yomigaeru Sora - Rescue Wing
    Not a clue about the storyline, what makes this show stand out is that it will take a new approach on anime by mixing it with live action.

    Digi's Note:
    Second Lieutenant, Uchida Kazuhiro, is a new helicopter pilot. However what he really wanted to be was a fighter pilot to fly at supersonic speed in stratosphere. But he faced a harsh reality. During the pilot training, he was transferred to the rescue helicopter course. Now, he is working for the Komatsu Rescue Squad whose mission is only rescue.
    At first he is depressed because he is assigned to the position that he doesn't wish. But, joining various missions, for example, rescue of airplane accidents, missing in mountains, earthquakes, and so forth, he gradually thinks it a challenging job.

    Rakugo-Tennyo ,Majikano, Fate/Stay Night, Looking up at my Half Moon, XXXHoLiC, those are the ones that I actually know more about...and they're all pretty good. There are a few others that look good, that one about the voice actors sounds like it might be, interesting at least.

    Nope...but I bet there'll be at least five subbed versions of episode one within a week of it airing.

    People have started liscensing before or right after shows have started airing in Japan. It's becoming a nuisance. FSN has been liscenced for a looong time. Oo

  • It's their way of getting rid of fansubs, so people are forced to either rent or buy the DVDs first. Either way, it's an attempt to make money, even if it doesn't work too well.

  • Soul Link isn't a spin off of SHUFFLE! (the only so called 'spin off' to SHUFFLE! is TICK! TACK! which is probaly not going to be animated due to the ending of SHUFFLE!) it is just another game by Navel. They have no relation to each other whatsoever (though, there was a cameo for Soul Link in the second episode of SHUFFLE!)

    Same animation studio and the director said he sets in the same world...apparently.

    It might take place in the same world, however Soul Link takes place in the future, and the characters have no relation to the ones that are present in SHUFFLE!

    Short description of the game,
    "An adventure game with romantic angles and two main characters. Set in space in the near future, the space station Aries has been taken over by an extremist group called Halarax. You play as a member of a group of students who must take the station back."

    The only common thing that all Navel games share, is a certain little blue haired boy who seem to have a habit of pulling up girls' skirts.

  • Bincho Tan........it may be because I'm insane, but that premise interests me more than any of the others listed. Too bad the log wasn't as large and obtrusive as I'd hoped when I clicked the link and looked at the main character.

    I am looking forward to the new season of Tsubasa Chronicle. They should catch up to the manga soon.

    Highschool Rumble will be interesting.

    Bincho Tan seems like a odd anime. A different theme with the log?

    This looks like it will be a fun year of anime.
