Toradora! was one of my first anime (the first I actually downloaded IIRC), so a couple of things went over my head the first time. Rewatching it for good ol' nostalgia or something like that.

I thought Hayate's main point was being a comedy? Shows like those can sacrifice a bit of plot if its best aspect is simply to make people laugh. Louise, I think, isn't just tsundere-like: she is pretty much walking tsundere service.

Yes, it's mostly a parody, so it's meant for comedy. I admit it was funny, but pure comedy does not interest me; a simple, nice [side] plot would do just fine, hence why I dropped it. Purely subjective, by the way.

I watched Toradora! last summer I think. It is one of the best anime I watched. Tiaga is the first tsundere I ever saw.

Anybody liked Lovely Complex?

Lovely Complex was ok i guess. The main guy annoyed me a hell of a lot though.

Just watched the first 2 episodes of Zero No, it's very entertaining actually. I can see a lot of similarities between it and Shana.
 
I reached episode 6 of White Album, and I must say, wow. I never expected it to be that good, but till now, it is great.
 
Yes, kinda. It started airing during the first quarter of 2009, so it's fairly new. I strongly recommend it. It's very underrated.
 
Some thoughts on anime of this season:

Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt - My kind of anime. I just found the mindkilling 30 minutes so enjoyable.

Ikamusume - Ika-chan is cute. That's it really.
Hate the original manga, so at least the anime is going somewhere.

Fortune Arterial - I really don't like anime when the protagonist and I share the same name. It's awkward.
And this was pretty much 30 mins of pure awkward and "oh god please stop calling my name."
So no, only episode 1 for me.

SoreMachi - I like the original manga, so didn't have much expectations for the anime.
I expected right, the anime seems to be going too fast, and the unique atmosphere the manga has just doesn't translate to anime.
Probably going to be typical Shaft animu.

Milky Holmes - Oh please god no. Fast paced to the point it made no sense, and not funny too. Nor cute.
Why the heck this Bushiroad give the go-sign to this....?

Star Driver - Missed episode 1 today, apparently is good, so will need to catch up.

Oh. Does it have good art? Plot? Genre? :o

The art is very good, to me that is. It's not THE best, but it didn't bother me at all. It's a romantic, slice of life anime, though the romance in it is somehow unclear sometimes.
Read the plot here if you like.

And kohei, I agree with you on Panty & Stocking.

You really live in Japan right? If so, your lucky.

I'm interested in Fortune Arterial.
And you mean you missed it when it was on TV?
 
The new thread looks great :D I am Chad -, if anyone remembers -_-

Okay, so I haven't been watching much anime lately, but hopefully I will get back to it, now that the new Fall anime have been released. From what I read here and from the reviews on MyAnimeList, this season is either great or disappointing :O So, what can you guys recommend me from this year's new collection?
 
Not even Psychic Detective Yakumo? >:-( I have been dying to watch this, since I read the manga before. I don't want to download anything that will suck later on; I have a terrible bandwidth and my ISP sucks, badly.

But, my friend bought me Clannad and True Tears. Hopefully these will entertain me for the time being.
 
Welcome back Chad. I'll give a quick round-up of my favourite anime so far this season.

Shinrei Tantei Yakumo - Loved the manga, the series also started with a real bang. My tip to be anime of the season.

MM! - From 2 episodes it seems it's going to be a very strong comedy. Not too clichéd.

Bakuman - From the creators of Death Note, a slice of life anime about a pair that team up to create a manga. It seems well written and nice to watch.

Yosuga no Sora - Twincest/harem/romance and pretty artwork.

The sequels i've started watching are for To Love-Ru! and Sora no Otoshimono.

Basically a good start to the season.

----

Fortune Arterial ep 1 was ok Char, it seemed to be a little more serious than R+V but still ok.
 
Too..many..O_O (not really), but thank you for that Lapras (you have something else I can call you? xD)

From your descriptions, Bakuman sounds the most interesting. I just might give it a go. I believe I read the manga. I am watching previews of some; not much appealing.

And To Love-Ru's sequel is already airing? :O Nice.
 
Feel free to call me Keiran if that's easier, that goes to everyone in here if you want.

It is a lot, i have way too much free time :/ :L
