Ryuuko: I think this series sounds cute and interesting but it might be one of those that take a while to get into? Lol, I haven’t followed the first season so I’m not sure if I can jump into this one so easily. Might be one of those I prefer to read in a manga. 😛
Hoshi: Arakawa has always interested me, but being the lazy anime watcher that I am, I haven’t watched the first season at all. Now with the news of the second season, I’ll of course be checking out the first season, and judging by the many people who have told me, continue on with this second season. ^^
Overcooled: Season 1 was nothing short of amazing, I can’t imagine what season 2 will bring to the table. I get the feeling we’re going to have to fight over who covers this one. There will be blood. I am ready to kill people, if the need arises. WATCHING THIS X1000.
Hato-kun: I watched a few episodes of the first series, but I lost interest after a while. It was a bit too crazy for my liking, so I won’t be watching the sequel.
Flags: Three words: More. Sakamoto. Maaya.
Masu: When S1 finished, I was left feeling very unsatisfied. Here’s to hoping they’ll correct that wrong. Also, Sanchou is my hero.
Kyokai: The first season was the best out of spring so in getting a second season so soon is a treat. Also, Sakamoto Maaya, Hiroshi Kamiya? I’m filled to the brim with fangirliness for this >>> :fangirl

Ryuuko: I don’t really like historical dramas and since it’s based on a romance adventure game I don’t think it’ll have the depth of story that it would need to draw me in with its genre. Maybe… but probably not.
Hoshi: I feel that this storyline has been done way too many times. This is a definite pass for me.
Overcooled: Nothing about this seems to interest me at all…*blinks*
Hato-kun: It’s a sequel. Unfortunately, I’ll be giving it a miss. Simply because it’s a sequel and I haven’t seen the original. It sounded cool…
Flags: Yes, because this was something that I wanted to see a second season of…………!
Masu: I couldn’t watch past the second ep of the first season. Bishies and BL are things I have a low tolerance for.
Kyokai: I started following the first season just because DB was subbing it but then the bishies lured me in. This has a mellow story with entertaining characters. I’m invested, I’ll watch. And Masu, there’s no BL in this… *blinks*

.: Kuragehime :.
>> This is a Josei story where the protagonist Tsukimi Kurashita is an aspiring illustrator and avid jelly fish fan, who has recently moved to Tokyo. She moves into an apartment complex that is mostly inhabited by fujoshi (hardcore female otaku) where males are banned. One day she invites someone who seems to be a stylish woman to stay in her apartment room but soon discovers this person’s shocking secret – she is actually a he dressed in drag. The anime will be based on its extremely successful manga counterpart, which has been nominated for the 3rd Manga Taisho award and has won the 34th annual Kodansha Manga award in its category.

Trailer:
Ryuuko: I think it’ll be interesting. I haven’t actually seen that many Josei series but this seems like it’ll be a good series that’ll represent the genre well. I can’t say I’m particularly into the whole gender-bender aspect of things but if it’s funny… 😛
Hoshi: I’m loving this storyline! It’s pretty original, especially with this man dressing like a girl, and it sounds pretty funny. I’ll be checking this one out, definitely. I’m really interested as to what this apartment complex is like with fujoshi all around! xD
Overcooled: Ehh..they’re really going to base an entire anime around this? <_< I can’t see myself liking this…Will pass for now unless someone tells me it’s worth my time.
Hato-kun: I was drawn in by the word “Jelly Fish” but upon further inspection, the art looks like it would annoy me. Kind of like Trapeze. But that show sucked. I’ll give this one a miss.
Flags: Noto Mamiko AND Suwabe Junichi? Not to mention that Brains Base is animating? Done deal. Hold on while I read the synopsis…….okay, the only thing I’m confused about is; who the hell voices the main character?
Masu: I’m afraid this might become my guilty pleasure of Fall ’10. =3=
Kyokai: This sounds promising. Not only the seiyuu list but the manga accolades and of course: Brain Base (the idiots, who haven’t announced a second season of Drrr! yet), I AM SO WATCHING YOU! *points finger*

.: Kami nomi zo shiru Sekai – The World God Only Knows :.
>> Here we have the story of Keima Katsuragi, a high school student who enjoys playing galges or dating sim games. He’s known online as the “capturing God” for his ability to capture any 2D girl in the games he plays. In real life however he’s an unpopular glasses wearing otaku. The main plot begins where a demon from Hell forms a contract with Katsuragi stating he will help in capturing runaway spirits who have stowed themselves away in the hearts of real girls. Katsuragi mistakenly believes his work will be handled within the 2D world but he has no way of escaping from the contract without fulfilling his promise by winning the hearts of real girls.

Trailer:
Ryuuko: This seems just… so ridiculous! But it’s like harem with weird story, lol. I don’t know I might actually be interested… if it’s really funny and the main character is tolerable I might give it a go.
Hoshi: For some reason I’m actually interested in this, but the story seems so confusing and ridiculous at the same time ^^; I’ll wait to see how the animation looks, but for right now I’m feeling a Pass.
Overcooled: Watching first episode for lols. AHAHAHA. The concept is both lame and awesome at the same time. I am saddened by hardcore otaku who prefer virtual girls over real ones.
Hato-kun: For some reason I read this is “The World Ends With You” and I freaked a bit. Unfortunately, the reality is it sounds pretty bad. I’ll check out the first episode, simply because it might have some good game references, but if the characters suck, then I’ll give it a miss.
Flags: I’ve been reading this one since it started; it’s on my “fo’ sho” list. I mean come on, Manglobe is making this. I kind of find that unbelievable in a way, but only Manglobe could put a book in the PV that says “Vincent Law”. My only problem with this show is that Keima isn’t voiced by Fukuyama Jun.
Masu: Sounds like every 2.0 otaku’s fantasy come true, though it’s not really true, since it’s still an anime. r.r
Kyokai: I’m sure curious about this Kitsuragi fellow. Maybe he’ll turn out to be a hero of all depraved otakus. Lol, watching.

.: Otome Youkai Zakuro :.
>> This is another historical anime set in an alternate reality Japan. It’s the Meiji Era and humans and youkai have been living together peacefully. However, the Gregorian calendar has come into effect and the humans decide to change it to focus on the daytime. Some youkai are angered by the change which results in delegates from the human and youkai factions to work together to promote an understanding of each other’s cultures within the group in the hopes that it will spread to their societies. The main character is a bigotry hating girl named Zakuro who is chosen to be a delegate, however she is partnered up with a human who fears youkai…

Trailer:
Ryuuko: I think it should start becoming clear that I’m the type who’ll watch anything as long as it’s funny. Though this doesn’t seem to be the hilarious comedy type, it’s got kind of an ok story which I can put up with for regular laughs.
Hoshi: These historical animes really need to have more original storylines. Why do they always have to have demons in them? They’re always living amongst them, and the humans are always practically fighting them. I’d say pass one this historical anime as well.
Overcooled: Hmm doesn’t sound that bad, actually. Youkai and humans living together, I want to see how that’s going to work. As long as the main duo have good character dynamics, it should be an interesting show.
Hato-kun: Doesn’t sound interesting at all, to be frank. A Historical / Supernatural anime doesn’t really ring true for me. Maybe if someone says it’s good I’ll check it out.
Flags: Hold on. Tsukasa, Nadeko and Tsukihi? Where’s Hiroshi Kamiya, let’s do this Bakemonogatari reunion right! Wait a minute……….OH SHI-Nakahara Mai……….I just sensed a certain explosive Key fanboy giggle…
Masu: I like period pieces, which seems to be an exception around here. However, there was also youkai in the description. You don’t need a gimmick to make a good period piece. PASS!
Kyokai: I always get attracted by supernatural themes and did someone say youkai? Personally I would love something like Natsume Yuujinchou (one of my favourites) but I was disappointed with Nura-aksjdhaksjh, still this definitely gets the two-epi test.

.: Shinrei Tantei Yakumo :.
>> This is a horror, supernatural mystery anime about Saitou Yakumo, a college student who has one eye that gifts him with the ability to see ghosts and spirits. Along with Ozawa Haruka, Yakumo investigates his theory that there is a specific cause that binds these ghosts and spirits to Earth and the elimination of this cause will allow them to rest in peace.

Ryuuko: Horror + Supernatural + Mystery ^^; Looks like an auto-pass for me.
Hoshi: Eh, I’m not so sure on this one. It seems like it’s going to be a bit boring. Judging from the storyline, this doesn’t feel like anything special :/
Overcooled: Huh, I guess I’ll check this one out. Doesn’t sound particularly amazing but doesn’t sound bad either. They’d better make those mysteries GOOD, otherwise I’d dropping this! You hear me? I’d better be entertained!
Hato-kun: If they pull it off, it could be interesting. A lot of serious anime really don’t hit home with me. They either make it too serious and it becomes boring, or it’s just a bad mix of serious and comedy. I’ll be checking this out, but dropping if it’s horrible.
Flags: Been reading this manga as it’s released as well as trying to get by in the novels. I really like the themes explored in the novels and manga. Anyone who auto-passes this *cough* is an idiot.
Masu: I am looking forward to watching this. There haven’t been many supernatural anime lately that have been up to my standards, so I’m hoping this one surprises.
Kyokai: I have read the initial manga chapters and I love Yakumo already; not to mention OD voicing him and the overall supernatural theme. I am definitely watching till the end.

.: Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru :.
>> Clumsy Arashiyama is a girl with a love for mysteries and a knack for getting into trouble. She works for an old lady’s lacklustre maid café in a small shopping district. The cafe is largely unsuccessful in attracting customers aside from Sanada, a regular and one of Arashiyama’s classmates (who has a secret crush on her). One day Arashiyama’s clever friend Tatsuno is invited to the café, and, upon seeing the miserable state of things (and Sanada, whom she has a secret crush on), decides to work there. Don’t miss the crazy antics of Arashiyama and friends, mismatched love stories, and all the hilarity that is created as a result, in Sore Machi.

Ryuuko: I’ll definitely try to watch the first episode to see how it turns out but it’s not something I can see myself following religiously.
Hoshi: I’m liking the storyline, and I’ll probably end up giving this a try. But if once it starts going down the road of cliché, I’ll stop.
Overcooled: Ahhh Chiaka Omigawa, I love you! Too bad you’re in a show I would never watch unless I was forced too! Sounds wayyyy too fluffy for me, although I would love to work at a maid café in a frilly maid outfit. Somehow, it sounds awesome…Anyways, I digress. Pass.
Hato-kun: When I look at the picture, all I see is a badass-looking robot maid. I know that’s not what it is, but a guy can dream. I’ll check this out.
Flags: Dayam; Sakurai Takahiro is getting around this season. He’s gonna catch something he’ll regret if he keeps whoring himself out like this. A Shinbou/SHAFT production with a maid. I’m running towards this faster than you can say “Anti-School Days”.
Masu: Watching this only because it’s a SHAFT thing. If it turns out poor, I’ll be QQing.
Kyokai: Interesting storyline, good seiyuu list and whaaa, SHAFT?! Yeah, definitely watching this.

.: Starry☆Sky :.
>> This is a shoujo, school life anime where the main character, Tsukiko is a young woman who enrols in a recently co-ed high school. She finds out that due to the fact that the school is located in a rural area and offers oddly exclusive curriculums, she’s the only female in a school full of males. The anime gets its name from the fact that 12 attractive young men are personified from the 12 zodiac constellations who make up the ‘reverse harem’ team of the series. This would be short animation with 10 minutes for each episode.

Trailer (fanmade character intro):
Ryuuko: Auto-pass again sorry. I enjoyed Fruits basket (from what I can remember) but not so much that I’d crave for an anime that sounds exactly like it. 😛
Hoshi: Eh, harems, reverse harems, I don’t like either :/ Like Ryuuko said, this does sound sort of like Fruits Baskets, so I’ll pass as well.
Overcooled: I wanted to see this, but now that I see it’s harem, I’m instantly turned off. I just wanted to see what Aquarius would be like. I am sad now. However, upon further researching the seiyuus I see my only weakness: Kamiya Hiroshi, aka MAI HUSBANDO. Lots of other great seiyuu too! GAHHHH, what do I do?
Hato-kun: Reverse harems aren’t that cool. I probably won’t be following this. And what is with all the anime that are all like “Recently co-ed school”? I don’t understand it! Maybe it’s happening in Japan because the birthrate is dropping? The art looks awesome though.
Flags: Hirakawa Daisuke…………..too bad.
Masu: BORING. FRUITS BASKET WITH ONLY ONE GIRL. PASS.
Kyokai: I haven’t seen/read Fruit Basket so I’m good to go. Also, has anyone checked the seiyuu list? It has ALL THE LEADING MALE SEIYUU; how can you miss this?! Hiroshi, OD, Mamoru, Nakamura, Fukuyama, I will hear you and watch this! ^^

.: Togainu no Chi :.
>> Togainu no Chi is a shounen ai, action series which depicts Japan after the devastations of the Third World War which resulted in the country being divided in two. Crime organizations now control the city of Toshima which they use as the location of a battle game called “Igura.” Enter the main character, a young man and champion in a street-fighting tournament who is suddenly accused of committing a serious crime.

Ryuuko: I swear I was just writing about this earlier but apparently they’re two different series ;O I had to research them just to make sure. Anyway I’m pretty sure I won’t be following this one either. I’m not the greatest fan of shounen-ai, though I don’t hate it I just prefer yuri. ^^:
Hoshi: I’m a fan of Shonen-ai but ehhh, this one sounds boring 😛 I think it’s just my personal taste on Shonen-Ai that is telling me to dislike this storyline.
Overcooled: DO WANT. Ahhh Midorikawa, Hikaru! Yes! Shounen-ai series have a tendency to be mediocre when it comes to plot, so I can only hope this one has a little oomph to keep me interested. Don’t try to distract me with flowers and sparkly bubbles!
Hato-kun: Tempted because it’s Tomokazu Sugita, but it’s Shounen-ai…. Probably won’t watch this.
Flags: I’m open to anything when it comes to anime; except Hirakawa Daisuke. So I’ll give this one ze test.
Masu: BL, PASS.
Kyokai: Definitely watching. Seems like angsty and action-filled shounen-ai to me. Also Sugita and Fukuyama, what can go wrong? xD

I’m already fangirling about the Kuroshitsuji OVAs too o3o Those characters designs are just lovely<3
Also, after seeing the pictures to some of these anime series, I want to change my opinion on a lot of them, hahaha. But who knows I might have been right after all, I'll just have to wait and see.
Awesome job Kyokai, you certainly did work hard!<3 Now you need to rest ^^;

Thank you, Hoshi. The team effect has been awesome! ^^
I have been looking forward to Deadman, Shirei and Arakawa the most. There are of course a lot other and like I always do, will definitely sample everything. And you can always change your mind now that you know what others said on the titles discussed. XD

Too true Hoshi! There’s a couple of series I’d like to take a second look at now, especially after seeing everyone’s opinions of them lol. Btw I like how we don’t all overlap on the same things lol.

LOL~ It is indeed a very promising season. Also, none of the writers at Metanorn have weird tastes, we rather bend towards some genres more than others. This actually helps in the long run with diversity rather than everyone talking about the same thing. So, you are good to go, Cool~! ^^
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments

POWUH: iLurker with 18 comments
AHNN.
SO MUCH I WANT TO SEE.
FALL. HURRY UP AND COME OR I’M GOING TO RAPE KITTENSwhut
I want to see pretty much everything in the moe and ecchi section. Nothing can ever compare to tits and lots of cute girls.
Sadly, I’m a bit disappointed by the outcast section. Usually I find lots I want to see, but there’s not much for me in there. Too bad.
I’m trying to decide whether or not to watch Togainu no Chi. I know the game was a pretty hot yaoi, but I hear the anime was toned down to just a few “friendship” moments here and there. Tch.
Although I hate to say this as a Marvel/DC hater(I have a friend that’s addicted and never shuts up about it), that Ironman trailer looked pretty cool. The art was good. But I might pass, just to save my pride…
DSADFFDSG YAAAAAY INDEX FINALLY SEASON TWO I HAVE HAD TOO MUCH RAILGUN AND I NEED MY MAGICICAL LOLI.
Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt just wtf is that I am so watching wth.
>_>
Thanks for the update, adsadfsf can’t wait for Fall.♥
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
After we were done with the comments, it was an overall feeling that we simply CAN’T WAIT FOR FALL!!! Aaaaaaaarghhh!
In case of Outcasts, do check out Arakawa, Psychic Detective Yakumo, Kuragehime, TWGOK and Soredemo Machi. Now that you’ve said that I want to go look for this Togainu no Chi game… >.< And I agree, dunno wtf is PnS but I'm sure watching out of curiosity. There's loads of moe and ecchi galore this season so plenty for everyone. Thanks for becoming a regular commentor here. Good to see you around! 😉
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 145 comments
PnS ALL THE WAY MAN, i dunno whats up with you two. r.r
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Lol, nothing. We just can’t be PnS all the way! We gotta see other stuff too! =P
POWUH: iLurker with 12 comments
OH MAN you guys are FAAAST.
I actually would take a stab at watching most of these!
Bakuman- The manga kiiind of got boring but I’ll definitely watch the anime. Is it wrong to hope for Death Note-esque EPIC DRAWING scenes?
Deadman Wonderland, Kuragehime, Otome Youkai Zakuro, Shinrei Tantei Yakumo, Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru and Tamayura I’m definitely trying. Especially Kuragehime. Brains Base fffffff
Togainu no Chi-…Must…supress…inner…fujoshi…
Mirai Nikki- YES. I never got to catch up with the manga but I can’t pass down this psycho horror. It’s amazingly INSANE.
Megane na Kanojo- Just picked up the manga recently, it’s adorable ;w; I can’t wait till this comes out ♥
Kuroshitsuji Special- Okay, so season 2 hasn’t been all that…sane… but I would DEFINITELY watch Ciel in Wonderland. Oh what I wouldn’t give for more Trap!Ciel…♥ KUROSHITSUJI FOR LIFE♥
MAYBE: Goulart Knights, Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt. Just the title (of Panty and Stocking) has me giggling.
Also Yozakura Quartet- I guess why not? Although it can hardly compare to Durarara!! I would still give it a try.
And is that a second season of Letter Bee I spy? OH HELL YES.
Super special awesome job guys *A* The chart is neat-o and you guys are AMAZING! Can’t wait till fall now♥♥♥♥
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Zenbaka-chan~! We at Metanorn humbly thank you~! ♥♥♥
I’ll be checking out almost all the ones you mentioned and most of my mates here too. My fangirlyness goes on super-drive with the expectations that I have for these. I would love some Death Note-esque action but J.C. Staff being the busiest studio in fall, I’m actually scared for Bakuman’s fate!
Btw, Is Megane no Kanojo good? I might just try it out if the main lead is voiced by Kana Hanazawa! :3
POWUH: iLurker with 12 comments
Oh Megane no Kanojo is cute, I wouldn’t call it super good or anything but if you’re looking for a tame kind of cutesy shoujo-romance type of thing then you might want to try it~
I hope it’s Kana too XD
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
This means I will definitely check it out. Hopefully it’s a cute version of what we saw of Kana in Occult Academy. xD
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
Oh man, looks like I’ll be checking it out too lol. Life purge through cutesy shoujo-romance! ^^; Sounds like something for me 😉
POWUH: iLurker with 6 comments
I wouldn’t write off Togainu No Chi just because it is based on a Yaoi game; if it is as good as the trailer makes it out to be at least.
POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
Well, I’m a big yaoi fan (shh don’t tell anyone) so I’m all for it. But just like everything else, I’m going to have to see episode 1 before I can cast any final judgement :3
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Fufufuuu~ Don’t you worry Dana, there are many fangirls here who like BL. It just has to be good and at least OC and I would be testing this out. ^^
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 28 comments
Fall season wil be so so so so so so so so so GREAT!!!!
First, ALMOST all anime in Moe and ecchi section. 9. Then, As SHAFT lover, we have arakawa and Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru, and kami nomi for plus. It makes 12. In action, Bakuman, Deadmen wonderland, Tegami bachi 2, Index 2. 16. In OVA, railgun, Air Gear, Bungaku Shoujo, Koe de Oshigoto, Megane na Kanojo, tamayura, seikimatsu. 23. Movie (If the DVD or Blueray are out actually :P) are gundam and Orgel (I hear this movie has 7 minutes more long than the original, so i want to see it). 25. That’s A LOT.
But ika musume and otoshimono : forte are my first priority. You know, they are BLUE, TSUNDERE, and MOE (I’m talking abou nymph and ika of course)
POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
I TOO AM VERY EXCITED, YEOSHHH! I’m not a big moe and ecchi fan, so someone else will probably cover those but as for action YEAH I’M IN!!!! I think I have like 17 shows I want to see at least the first episode of. Wow, 25 for you…So much anime!! You have a lot of watching to do~
I hope your blue+tsundere+moe = win~ I hate disappointments >_<
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
No worries, we’re sure to cover the moe and ecchi ;D Hato and I are prolly gonna have to throw down over a few series but we’ll get them covered I’m sure. Personally I’m looking forward to Ika Musume, I hope its hilarious!

I will fight you for that moe and ecchi, Ryuuko. I will FIGHT to the DEATH. :3
And good reasoning, Oplover. I like your style of thinking.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
Lol there go my adult sensibilities! Fighting a teenage guy over moe and ecchi… Looks like I’ll put off acting like a grownup for a while longer :runs:
Way to go Fall season! Sheesh 😛 Ah well at least it looks like we have some nice titles to fight over muahahahaha!! >:)

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally!!!!
*Can finally rest while needing a dose of the next fall season*
That was….GREAT!!! Great list guys! It takes a lot of work and coordination to compile this loooooong list of yours. Very informative and now I know what to watch for this fall season..
*compiles selflist for the next DDD ep*
One of my “going to watch” anime (sadly forgotten or not mentioned in this list) is Super Robot Wars: The Inspector.
O and….. if you were to look closely at Flag’s opinions of certain shows, you will sh*t bricks.
Till then….. SEEE YOU MAI-CHAN in the fall season!!!

Domo Arigatou ne~ Baku! ^^
Hopefully this would give you more stuff to talk about in the upcoming DDD epis. Btw, Super Robot Taisen is on our skip list at page 7. ^_~
And we’ve become so used to Flags’ biasness that it doesn’t even produce a raised eyebrow. Problem is, most of his predictions come true, damn it! :sigh
@ Grim, I think this was his polite version… >.>
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
Hey hey it’s our mate Baku 😛 How goes? Haha I love that there’s so many people dropping their opinions here so we can all fangirl/fanguy together about fall :XD: It’s gonna be more than awesome.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
*fanboy. Btw, a lot of fanboys actually fangirl. Go figure. xD
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 94 comments
EHEHE… *sniffs* That would be me and Flags.
I fangirl for anything VA/Key, and Mai Nakahara, and Flags fangirl anything for TYPE-MOON/Sakamoto Maaya
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
Lol fanguy is a newly christened Ryuu word! Like zomaagaaa~ :woo
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 94 comments
I don’t know what your Ryuu word is, but I hope my fangirling don’t spread through all the inches of the comment section….
AHHHHHHH~ Nakahara Mai (don’t know will the show be good…) :shakesfist
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Baku, LOL, I so know! Let the fangirling spread to all corners of Metanorn. We are a bunch of fangirls anyway and proud of it too (including the guys!) :fangirl
Now to Otome Youkai, seriously can’t make up my mind about it. Seiyuu are awesome but J.C. Staff… Let’s see.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
Nakahara Mai! Mai-Hime!… Another series I’m embarrassed to like. My best mate reckons I only like anime guys would like. And not just regular guys either… WEIRD guys. Ego goes boom! I also liked her in StoPani, Sola and that one where the girls play baseball (which I really liked but I’m playing that down by being blasé about it) ;p
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 94 comments
@Ryuuko, HAVE YOU SEEN CLANNAD? Sorry… Fangirling about Nakahara Mai and KEY is acting up…
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
Lol unfortunately not but I did somehow get addicted to the dango song. Dango dango dango dango. Except it was the actual song… not just dango typed four times with me humming.
Obviously the shows I (so do not!((do)) fangirl over are different to yours 😛 Well in all honesty I only fangirl over Mai-Hime. I have Hime/Otome/Sora Kake Girl Weiss Schwarz cards @_@
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 94 comments
Haha Could sing that song all day with my sister.. ~Dango Dango Dango Dango Dango Daikazoku~ But Seriously if it’s any role that Nakahara Mai is known for then it is CLANNAD/AS… NAGISAAA!!!!!
Damn should review that soon in the show..
(I really need a Dango Plushie….) :cute:
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
Omg yes, review it and I 100% promise I’ll listen in! ;D I thought quite seriously about watching Clannad… I think I might have bailed because I thought it was going to be too sad 😥
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 94 comments
J.C Staff despite the horrible adaptation that is Tsukihime, and the awful awful Shakugan no Shana can do romance pretty well…
Currently watching Kimikiss: Pure Rouge and loving every moment of it, and loved Toradora. I guess I do have a love hate relationship with J.C
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I feel the same way but J.C. Staff > Studio DEEN any day. I loved their treatment of Nodame Cantabile, Honey and Clover and even Toradora! (though I liked the latter more because of Ryuuji).
Let’s see how Bakuman goes, I certainly have very high expectations of it. ^^
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
Nodame was hilarious!! Tbh I actually came to watch the anime since I loved the jdrama live action one so much @_@~ That’s one series I’d definitely openly fangirl about! :love:
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I loved Nodame’s character! So unpredictable yet lively. xD
We’ll properly fangirl it the next time we chat. :fangirl
POWUH: iLurker with 1 comments
I guess I should say I’ve lurked metanorn for the past year or so, but never actually commented. ;;;; However, I will thank you guys for the awesome updates you always do! I’m terribly excited for the fall season. Starry Sky, Arakawa, the Kuroshitsuji specials, etc.
Though I’m also commenting to say that I’m flattered you guys posted up my Starry Sky video as the fanmade trailer. <3 I never expected it! Thank you! /bow.
POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
There goes your posting virginity~ kekekeke~ (It’s ok, I used to lurk here too). Thanks for the compliments! …Even though I just started writing here at Metanorn…so can’t take credit for ALL the awesome, ne? Wooo, another Arakawa fan!
Oh wow, you’re the one who made that trailer?? Wow! I think I should be the one bowing, that’s some nice work there! Thanks for making it! \^o^/
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Chibiru-chan~ I’m glad you are out of the lurk-more and let me tell you, I simply lurved your video. ♥♥♥ The reason I included it. ^^
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 145 comments

POWUH: iLurker with 12 comments

POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
Don’t be reserved, TELL ME EVERYTHING O_O *intimidates*
No really, don’t be afraid to make a huge comment. It’ll match our Godzilla-sized post. Teehee, glad you liked the update ^__^
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
@Yukiko She’s right, huge comment away! Or throw in lots of junior sized, baby Godzilla comments >:) We’re happy that a team as big as ours gets readers as cool as you guys to hang out with!
@OC … I have no words. But please know I lol’d for quite a long time <3

POWUH: iLurker with 6 comments
Well, I had a lot of stuff to comment but I forgot it. Anyway, thanks for the news <3~!!
Koi☆Sento sounds weird but I want to watch it <3
Goulart Knights looks really cool~
And the bad guy of Iron Man looks so smexy, that's worth watching~
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thanks! ^^ I’m definitely checking these and no worries. You can always come back to whatever you want to say. 😉
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
“but I forgot it.”
… story of my life! My brain should have a rec button. I’m kind of looking forward to Koi Sento especially because it sounds weird lol.
POWUH: iLurker with 1 comments
You guys are amazing. I think this site is the first to post a preview of the upcoming fall anime season roster. Good Job!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thanks Pastel-chan~! <3
We wanted to get the info out as soon as possible as we were brimming with the news of awesome Fall on the horizon.
POWUH: iLurker with 4 comments
SWEEEET!!! Fall list is long and I have a long list. My watch list will probably be too long for me. Ah. Can’t wait for TWGOK, Mirai Nikki, Bakuman, Index II (WHOO HOO, been waiting for this), and Sora no Otoshimono is the epicness for the laughs. Probably be checking out Deadman’s Wonderland. Violence? Sounds like some High School of the Dead to me! sweet! IF I get really bored I’ll go marathon letter be s1 and watch s2 since I love the manga. and since I stuck with the manga to the end (only because the author recycled some characters from Black Cat!), I’ll check out the To-Love Ru. I’m so gonna fail my senior year just cuz I’m too busy watching my anime. So cannot wait! I sound like a freaking fangirl when I’m a boy, but manga and anime is one of my few passions. I can’t wait to hear the metanorn’s team’s thoughts on the anime’s I’m gonna follow. Good luck to you guys!

Hello there, fellow fandom-connoisseur~ We love our readers who go bonkers like us and watch/read excessively. Though, we so don’t want you to fail your year, we’d feel guilty of luring you in with our reviews… =.=;;
So, gambatte~ for a balance diet of animu and studies. 😉
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 140 comments
Yo Carl~
haha I totally second Kyo’s comment, my fave readers are the ones who get outwardly get excited about the shows along with us! Good luck with school and remember, there’s a delicate balance that’s all about watching juuuust enough anime that still allows you to avoid epic failing your exams >:)
Hope to hear from you again! 🙂

Your username just reminded me that there won’t be anymore DtB, now that even Gaiden is over… TAT
POWUH: iLurker with 8 comments
Yeah, I know. We’re all very sad. 🙁
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Even when the story was so depressing I am amazed at how many people still like it. I guess you can’t really hate Hei and of course it was still EPIC WIN~. xD
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Wow! lots of great stuff this fall can’t wait to see them! mostly looking forward to Index2/Star Driver/Motte To-Love-Ru/Sora no Otoshinmon and a few movies/ovas!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Fall looks awesome if you compare it to the meager summer. ^^ I would checking most of the stuff you mentioned. I still have to get into Index series though.
POWUH: iLurker with 9 comments
What!? no Gundam Unicorn?
or would that be in OVA’s?
but it’s not there either!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
There’s no Gundam Unicorn because it’s not a Fall release because it started airing from February and ending next year. ^^
POWUH: iLurker with 9 comments
my bad
the first one was pretty epic!
can’t wait for the 2nd OVA XD
finally see that NT-D kick some ass
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Wow, another Mecha fan like TSRL. You should definitely check out the DDD podcast on Gundam (epi 3 if I remember correctly).
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 94 comments

Couldn’t love mecha without THAT podcast…
Thanks for the shoutout Kyo! I feel all giddy inside!!! :oha:
