Have not done one of these in a while, so I thought I'd try my hand at it once more.
August
Kodomo no Jikan - Septepmber 12th
23 year old newbie school teacher Aoki Daisuke starts his first day of class only to find out that one of his students, Nokonoe Rin, has a crush on him. This turns out to be a big problem as she soon starts proclaiming herself to be his girlfriend. The manga was going to be released in the US, but was canceled due to the "inappropriate" relationship between the two main characters, but it's essentially a parody of the whole loli fetish Japan has going on right now.
Moonlight Mile ~Touchdown~ - September 12th
Set after the first series, it follows the two main characters after arriving on the moon and their continuing search for the energy source said to be there. The original series followed two characters who after climbing Everest, set their goals on an even higher place, the moon. Will run for 14 episodes.
ToHeart2 ~Another Day~ September 28th
Will probably run for 6 episodes or so. It's supposed to be based on the new game but will have characters from the older series make appearances as well.
ARIA ~ARIETTA
Set sometime after Aria the NATURAL, this series will cover both the recent manga chapters as well as do some original stories of its own.
