Not very happy about the Digimon Tri news...chances are, BDs won't come out until Spring next year for the movies. God Eater looks decent for now but I'm really hyped to see One Punch Man for Fall.

Also, I wonder if Himouto! Umaru-chan will be a short? The chapters are short but they could do it for full length episodes like Watamote.

I will watch all of these

Aquarion Logos
Chaos Dragon: Sekiryuu Senyaku
God Eater
One Punch Man
Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry
Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya 2wei Herz!

The others look average or bad. Not sure about Ranpo Kidan, since it have horror genre it might turn out to be good (hopefully it won't be another pupa)

That Taifuu no Noruda PV, hhnngg, for a movie that was announced not even 2 months before its screening it's nice, I feel like it's going to feel a really comfy watch with a bit of drama, Galileo Galilei too, so good.


I hope the people who arranged this step on legos everyday on their way to work.
What a waste of damn good studio, disgusting, Silver Link deserves better.

Best girl spotted.

Game of Laplace's PV reminds me of Pupa a little, which is a bad thing. Hopefully it'll be something completely different.

Taifuu no Noruda is looking nice! I have good expectations for this.

It's good that Silver Link gets to animate the LN series that deconstructs the whole magic high-school setting and most of its usual tropes in a subtle way. By now it's become quite amusing how people are already looking down on it just after reading the so-called "generic synopsis". Oh well, the actual thing will speak for itself if well adapted.
It's a good thing Rakudai was not given to IMS instead...


By the way I can't be the only one who is at least slightly disappointed that the VAs for the Chaos Dragon characters are not their original players... though in that case it would be quite hard for urobuchi to voice his own character when he has been gender-bent...

That God Eater PV... uhhh, it looks like a mix of 3DCGI and 2D characters, it's hard to explain.

Basically, it's pretty darn good CGI.

Digimon Tri is going to be a movie series??
uhh...Not sure how to feel about that. I guess it's less likely to have shitty animation.

Well that's just freaking great! Digimon Adventure Tri will become a movie series, the waiting will continue. what's worst is that Taichi (one of my favorite childhood characters) is going to be voiced by one of my least favorite Seiyuus...wow Trollei animation you sure know how to make brilliant decisions...

Hmm... A live action version of Ore Monogatari? I saw a convincing cosplay of Takeo, Yamato, and Rinko once, so it's definitely possible to copy their appearances. I just don't know how they are going to pull off Takeo's heroic feats like wrestling a wild boar. I guess CGI will have to be used.

SN: Ore Monogatori is doing really well! An anime, a manga, and a live acTion version! Whoa!

holy shit, I guess I missed the original news posting for Chaos Dragon. That writer collaboration sounds incredible, and top writers coming together to write a story through tabletop roleplaying sounds genius. Anybody who mocks that idea is clearly unaware of how good storywriting can be when created through roleplaying. I'm seriously hyped for this.

everything else here Idrc about except maybe the Ore Monogatari live movie.

Indeed! Definitely looking forward to the show. Once the infamous echo chamber of clueless fools has finally left the room and the viewers can enjoy the result, this can be very much fun. At least, the show has a very uncommon way to develop the characters :)
