The winter 2009 anime season is almost upon us! Here's what's airing this winter (source), and my verdict on each:
Baka to Test to Shokanjuu
School battle monster comedy. Looks like it might be appealing to the right crowd, but definitely not my thing.
Chu-Bra!!
Fanservice incarnate. Pass.
Durarara!!
Urban gang brawl fantasy monsters. Fans of the genre may want to check this out, but again, it's not really my thing.
Dance in the Vampire Bund
Vampires. Is there Alucard in it? No? Pass.
Hanamaru Kindergarten
Somewhere between kindergartners and breast inflation, they lost me. Pass.
Harukanaru 3
History stuff. Not a fan, pass.
Hidamari Sketch – Triple Star
New season of some typical slice of life whatever. I'd watch a little if it was the first season, but since it's not, pass.
Ookami Kakushi
Horror. Maybe I'll watch, but unlikely; I tend to shy away from horror.
Katanagatari
A historical anime with a different art style and a few other things that seem like they set it apart. Still, it's historical, which has historically (hehe) been a genre I don't care about. I probably won't bother.
Ladies vs Butlers
Harem anime. Or should I say, really cliche harem anime. Not even worth a look.
Nodame Cantabile Finale
Third season of a series I didn't even care about originally. No thanks.
Omamori Himari
Childhood friend, neko samurai, protagonist that is allergic to cats; HIJINKS ENSUE. I'll probably watch this one; it seems to suit my fancy. PLUS THERE IS A NEKO SAMURAI I MEAN COME ON.
Qwaser no Stigmata
Battle anime with lots of fanservice. Pass.
Sora no Woto
K-ON! with war? Count me in.
Also, the second Eden of the East movie will be airing in March, and I'll DEFINITELY watch that. :D
