Fall Anime Catalogue 2011
By Team Meta, posted under ANIME, Anime Season Catalogue, Announcements, Featured, First Look, HEADLINE, Recommendation
Welcome to METANORN’s FALL Anime Catalogue of 2011!
Come on, take a ride with us. It’s going to be an eventful journey~
I always look forward to fall because it means the summer is going, went, gone! Being from the ‘hotter’ part of the world, I welcome fall/winter with open arms. Though currently, I feel like Summer just zoomed past me and it must be due to being busy as hell and not watching enough anime that I want to personally. Hopefully things will wind down with the year ending. Anime wise, Fall usually introduces quality shows and there are more than you can check out. This time too, you can see the heavy hitters and surprises all wrapped under pwetty packaging so read on and find out for yourself, what the Metanorn Team has cooked up for you. Yep, readers and lurkers of Metanorn. | ||
I AM A MAD SCIENTIST! IT’S SO COOL~ Fall season is here! Which means that much closer Halloween and free candy and who doesn’t want candy?! Well, another season of anime is headed our way and we have some great looking shows to entertain us, and with any new season of anime more doses of Hanazawa Kana virus for everyone to fight off… | ||
The summer season treated me quite well, and this season looks even better. It’s full of a lot of more psychological-based anime that are right up my alley. Of course, there’s still the same onslaught of boobsboobsboobsthisanimehasbiggerboobsthanotheranime but that can’t be helped. So let’s hope that as classes begin once again for me (*sobs*) I have time to keep up with it all. | ||
MA UDDER FAVORITE SEASON, YESSSS~ There are a few titles I absolutely cannot wait for, although I will be lamenting the end of some of the great series of the last season. Still, out with the old and in with the new, as they say! Looking forward to some epic, some interesting, some junk and some down right dumb face-plant moments. It’s also great to see Jun in some leading roles this time around, as last season he was mostly just supporting. | ||
And so it is Fall~ I know for sure now that I’ve made it one year in the aniblogging world, and I’m feeling quite happy. Though this year’s fall list isn’t as exciting to me as last year’s was, the only thing that really matters to me is…BAKUMAN SEASON 2, YO. Whether it’s because of my deep love for manga, or my addiction to enthusiasm injections, I’ve been waiting for this the minute season 1 finished.So bring on Fall 2011, I’ll just be sitting here comfortably in my Bakuman corner (though I doubt you could really sit comfortably since its all about ENTHUSIASM). | ||
I remember back in Summer when I said that it is my favorite season and that hot weather trumps cold weather. Well, I didn’t expect NoCa to have a record breaking summer with temperatures in the 100’s on a number of days, but the temperatures are getting cooler now in September. Anime still is on a blazing hot trail this year with a bunch of great Fall shows. Fate/Zero should be outstanding, and I’m damn anxious to see Production I.G.’s new series Guilty Crown! Grab a meal and enjoy our Fall Preview! | ||
Fall? Oh wow ,it’s that time already? OH WOW I CAN’T FEEL IT IT’S STILL SO HOT HERE. Summer, like usual, isn’t that great. It was pretty entertaining though, I enjoyed summer season because it provides me with lots of “luls.” But now, summer looks serious here. Not that I’m complaining, since I’ll get KIRITSUGU and YAOI at the same season. YESSSS. And more anime that looks promising of course. I can’t wait for fall to here here soon! | ||
FALLLLLLL! Oh man guys, I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I am for the Fall. Other than the fact that the weather becomes BEARABLE (as opposed to the disgusting, humid summer heat that I have been subjected to) there’s NEW ANIME. I’m really excited about some of these titles, especially UN-GO! I’ve just started college so it may be a little difficult to keep up but I’LL DO IT. IT’S SO ENTIRELY WORTH IT. | ||
Fall. What can I say about fall (other than it’s when stores start selling Christmas decorations)? Well summer didn’t turn out all that bad, so I hope fall is great too. I mean, it LOOKS pretty good with Persona 4, Fate/Zero and all of those other awesome looking shows coming out, but the disaster that was Deadman Wonderland taught me that not all anime adaptions are good… I just hope I’ll be able to keep up with everything I want to watch since I have college now. Bloody homework. | ||
Spriiiiiing! The season after Winter. Because it was winter last. Alright, I get it. I really need to find a new way to open these bits of text. Every time it’s just ‘Ha! Your seasons are wrong and New Zealand is right!’ Well anyway, I have some special news. I’ve decided to sign up for more shows this season, and actually make an effort to bring you quality K-ON fanboying again and again. Because let’s face it. K-ON is awesome, and it needs more love. Too much yaoi around these parts. | ||
Nuuuuuuuuuuuu why does summer have to go?! I haven’t had much of a summer at all besides family time and work… LOTS OF WORK. I need a vacation!! But with that aside, man this fall line up has a good amount of anime that I’m interested in. But unfortunately for me, I can’t cover as much as I want to due to… life… duh. But I’ll be around because behind the scenes of Metanorn, I am slaving away on various things. So yeah, hope this fall goes by well along with winter and then spring will come and kick my butt. | ||
This time we played around with more in-depth information as I heard some complaints on the aniblogosphere about ‘not enough information’ or ‘too little to talk about’. So, we have covered all the possible bases with this improved version for the quality and quantity both. The separators are pretty self-explanatory so…. >> GET YOUR FABULOUS MAX~☆! |

POWUH: Occasional (51-75) with 67 comments

Other then that I will be watching Ika musume 2, Bakuman 2, and Chihayafuru (idk it just interests me.) AND HUNTER x HUNTER!!! haha…
Checking out: Guilty Crown, Un-Go (bishies XD), Ben-To

POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
LOL! Yandere love anyone? I hope asread does a good job with it and definitely looking forward to all the titles that you mentioned.
Aah, I remember you tweeting about it and here it is. Thank you for the wait! ^^ We take our time in collecting all the info because releasing reviews without complete information is just no good and does justice to the title being covered.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Hell ya to Mirai Nikki! I can’t wait to see that, but I have a feeling it will be soooo censored like BloodC And Deadman wonderland with so many shadows and great big beams of light….
IKA MUSUME 2! CANT WAIT AHHH!! xDD
Guilty Crown! Yes please! That looks so good, I will bet money it probably will be the hit of the fall season with all those great designs and music.
Why thank you! We put a lot of time into this 😀
POWUH: Occasional (51-75) with 67 comments
NOO that would be horrible if they had the beams of light..
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 339 comments
Seriously looking forward to some stuff here..
Show ▼
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Good list and LOL! You should match up with some old shows to balance out your current watch list. ^^
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 339 comments
Funnily enough I’m actually going to be watching the original Macross series along with this season. I think they might just be old enough XD
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
We can expect better from DEEN on Hatsukoi, but I’m keeping my expectations slightly above minimum.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Hells ya Junko! Guilty Crown for the winnnnnnnn and Fate/Zero,Working!! and Shana three! xD
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 107 comments
*take a deep breath after reading the suuuuuuuper long review* lol
Just reading it takes almost one hour, can’t imagine how long the team has been working on this. Thank you so much for the hard work! <3
Aww, I'm so happy that there's lots of promising show this season. Currently interested in Guilty Crown, Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon, Gundam AGE, Phi Brain, Un-Go, Persona 4, Mirai Nikki, Fate/Zero, Shakugan no Shana III, Sekaiichi Hatsukoi 2 and Hotarubi no Morie. That's quite a lot coming from me :))
Might cut down this list after watching first episode though :p
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thank you for the kind words! Everyone really worked hard in making this a reality. We have been preparing since last month. xD
Hahaa, we’ll see how much you end up seeing but definitely, there’s no shortage of good shows this season. ^^
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
-hands you a paper bag- ;D
Thanks! Indeed it was a long process but worth the wait! Good work everyone course we always do our best for the readers.
Yep I am looking forward to Guilty Crown,Gundam Age,Horizon,Mirai Nikki, Fate/Zero and Shana three too! Lots of great anime soon! Fall is going to be a great one.
POWUH: 800-899 and Flying Sage with 856 comments
Hourou Mousuko (special): I finally got around to watching the series last week. I had to wait because my old computer had serious problems with video, and the very pale colors of the art style meant I could barely tell what was going on. The pale watercolor style looks great (now that I have a new computer), and is very appropriate. For a show that seems like it would be intense and angst, it actually isn’t. I mean, yeah the kid gets bullied and stuff, but actually it is much more subdued than one would expect. I think this gave it a sense of realism that I wasn’t expecting. I’ll check out the special, since I’m caught up.
Chihayafuru: Yeah! This is my prediction for best show of the season.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I agree on the intensity. They talk about some serious stuff quite mildly. No violence except for some bullying and bitching. Seen in a marathon, Hourou Musuko is much better than waiting for it every week.
And three cheers for Chihayafuru. This should be a total win!
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 338 comments
AWESOME SAUCE!!! I’ve been waiting soooo long for this!!! Picking next season’s watches is always a process. But I love all your reviews and the trailers really help. No one does it like Metanron. Here is too another rocking anime season.
CHEERS!
Most looking forward too:
Fate/Zero, Gundam Age, Bakuman S2 and Sekai-Ichi Hatsukoi 2. Watching a few others but those are the big kickers.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thank you, Kitty-chan! We love doing it for our readers. ^^
Also, a mecha fan? Say HI to Fosh and Jrow as these two fanboy it to the limit. xD
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
Thanks so much! It’s like how Carly Simon sings it.
I have faith in F/Z being great and Hatsukoi should be more of season 1 goodness, and I’m interested to see what Age brings to the table.
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 338 comments
I really just can’t wait to hear Takano go Huh?! again.
I think I might add Last Exile to the list, thou I haven’t see the first one.
Also Hi Fosh and Jrow =^_^= yay for mecha backed fun!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Oh yes you should try to watch some Last Exile! Really good stuff xD and -wave- YES! Finally a season of mecha! Wooooooooooo hooooooo!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Ahahah thanks! 😀
Fate/Zero looks great! Can’t wait to see some more of Saber and Rin <3 Gundam Age might take a while to actually get into with those character designs, but I love gundam so I can look past that for now.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 88 comments
Soooo much info, amazing!! I think I might actually start recognizing VAs with your format XD
And OMG Sayanoara Zetsu Sensei, Hourou Mousuko, Usagi Drop, & Kimi ni Todoke specials! *_*
Anaaga’s reaction to Sekai-something something was cute haha
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I’m a VA fangirl through and through so it’ll be all my pleasure if you start recognizing them due to my reviews. XD
Too many titles to check out, yeah!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
hahah yep I am with you to Vivi one day I will have the names of all the actors memorized! Somehow….
POWUH: and Vampire Lover with 11746 comments
Whoa, this season is packed. It’s almost like summer again.
I saw the Guilty Crown trailer and even though I haven’t seen much of Code Geass, it reminds me of that with Index/Railgun parts.
I’m also in to check out Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon, Phi Brain: Kami no Puzzle, Fate/Zero, Persona 4: The Animation, Maji de Watashi ni Shinasai, C3: Cube X.
As for Hunter x Hunter, I never saw the original version but it still looks interesting.
A third Shakugan no Shana? Damn!!! I haven’t even seen the first two. Time to catch up.
A Deadman Wonderland OVA. I might give this series a second opinion depending on how it plays out. The madness, blood and gore were on the mark but the main character has yet to prove himself. I mean, Ganta actually looks tougher in this picture and I’m itching to see Shiro and Minatsuki go wild again.
That Infinite Stratos OVA is next on the list along with that Ao no Exorcist special.
This season’s gonna be busy but gonna help us burn a the the way to winter season.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Oh hell yeah! I want to see everything! Well, almost~
Guilty Crown seems to be the top pick because of the star-studded staff. I mean, would you look at those names. Same goes for Fate/Zero, Un-Go, Persona, Phi Brain and Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon. I say something for everyone but yeah, a warning for Shana, it’s a typical tsundere girl going shut up all the time. Not sure if it has enough ‘plot’.
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
In regards to Shana, I’ve never seen it, but from what I’ve read from steev and also other places is that Shana is kind of the basis for which most of today’s tsunderes are based off of. He’s actually excited about the series which surprised me a good bit.
POWUH: and Vampire Lover with 11746 comments
I don’t really mind tsunderes. I survived Bakemonogatari’s Hitagi and Kore Wa Zombie’s Sera and Haruna. And they are as tsun as they come.
What I really want to see first is Guilty Crown but we gotta wait untill October. I should have known. The Hanazawa virus has even gotten this upcoming series. She’s really branching out. Then there’s Persona 4 and Fate/Zero. They look really wild.
And not to forget Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon with Jun Fukuyama in the cast. Hime and other Fukuyama fangirls are gonna be all over that. They should have another anime with big time VA. Ao no Exorcist was a breeding ground for three kinds of viruses: Jun Fukuyama, Nobuhiko Okamoto and the infectious Hanazawa virus.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Yeah lots of great looking shows! So amazing to the line up with mecha for once.
True about guilty crown it does look a bit like a “Railgun/index” type of series which sounds great to me xD
POWUH: iLurker with 8 comments
First off, girls and guys of Metanorn you deserve a standing ovation for this season preview, every other blog should not bother to write one and just provide a link back to this. Seriously outstanding job. I am however worried about Kyokai, with all she’s got on her plate, one of these days her head is going to straight up explode! Of course that won’t stop her and we’re all going to have to chip in and buy her a yellow motorcycle helmet with built in nekomimi and those aren’t cheap you know!
I do have a bone to pick with you all though, before reading this I was fretting over having 12 shows in my want to watch list, now I have 22. And 8 OVA’s. On top of Fringe, Supernatural and Terra Nova in USA tvland! orz >.<
Again thank you for the fantastic work though, I'm so hyped to enjoy this amazing season with all of you!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Where should I even begin? I laughed like mad after reading this comment and thank you SO MUCH for your kind words and worrying about my head. LOL, Celty fits so well here. xD
Also, rest assured, I’ll be watching Fringe and Supernatural too along with all the above anime. It’s gonna be tough but reviews are there to check out and then sift the crop for better ones.
Let’s have an awesome season, YEAHHHH! xD
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
I know what ya mean with having so many shiny new shows to watch. I don’t have the US tv shows, but as a sports fan I have to find extra time to wiggle these shows around football games and whatnot.
Thanks so much! The first half of October will be crazy busy for us getting out first impressions and such.
POWUH: iLurker with 8 comments
Just to echo the comments above, thank you for such a complete season preview that’s beautiful-looking to boot! The amount of information here is extraordinary and the links to websites, information about people involved, etc. are extremely useful too. Awesome job!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thank you, Raph! Much appreciate it.
Also, I see you share the Yamada love, nyaa~ xD
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Thanks Raph! It was a lot of work and fun to finally get this done and out to everyone to read! Yeah thanks to Ness and Kyokai for working on the shiney graphics.
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 24 comments
Just real quick.
@Kyokai
You did a little mistake on page 9:
Sunrise and Production I.G. are not both doing Guilty Crown. Only I.G. and the one missing for Sunrise is Gundam AGE. You though nobody would notice eh?? XDD
You can count on this redly-suspiciously Gundam fanboy to correct you XDDD
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Why would I purposefully misquote. >>
Though good on ya, gundam fanboy.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Thanks TSRL! Are you excited for more Gundam!? I know I sure am muhahahah!
POWUH: 400-499 with 428 comments
All I have to say is wow, so many things to expect from the coming Fall, though I’m in agreement that Fate/Zero is at the top of the list. Returning cast as well as new members with the darker story in the background compared to the (relatively) lighthearted Fate/Stay-night. P4 though comes second but there are A LOT of new shows I have not heard of that I’m genuinely excited for…now I shall begin bouncing in my chair in glee…:)
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Fate/Zero, HELL YEAH! *Metafist* I have never been this excited about an anime before… Well, Nisemonogatari comes near enough but you catch my drift. xD
Persona 4 is making me crazy with their new PVs as the days go by. Not to mention so many shows to check out. It’s definitely going to be an eventful season, this one.
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ and Vocaloid Fangirl with 363 comments
!!! Thank you so much for creating such a comprehensive (and pretty) season preview post 😀 I am in awe of (and eternally grateful to) the Metanorn Team (Y)
I am so excited for Fall with approximately 7 series I’m looking forward to catching 8D 8D
…The only thing is that I only can start watching after my End of Year Exams end on 10 October so I. HAVE. TO. RESIST. T T
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
That’s so awesome to see you write that! So glad you really enjoyed the preview.
Fall’s looking pretty good. I’m not sure what my personal count of shows is, but each season this year I’ve underestimated the number, so it might hover between 5-10.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
You are welcome! This was really a lot of work but amazing job team xD
Nice!! I have lost count on the series I will end up watching….probably a little of everything for me 😀
POWUH: Occasional (51-75) with 58 comments
wooot new season! Looks pretty decent too =D
Looking forward to Phi Brain; Kami no Puzzle, HunterxHunter, and kimi to boku… Also going to continue on with bakuman, working, shinryaku ika mumsume and sekai-ichi hatsukoi =P
once again, very nice work on the review-ness =)
POWUH: 1000-1099 and Pirate King with 1048 comments
Very appropriate that you say review-“ness” since Ness did an amazing job with the design as is usually the case. 🙂
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Yes! Lots of exciting things to watch soon!
I am interested in HunterxHunter! And Ika Musume <3 <3 I missed that series I need my comedy fix.
LOL Yepp so much review-ness!
POWUH: 500-599 and The Trapolicious Treasurer with 599 comments
And every time a review comes out, I disappear right after it’s publish for a vacation xD
Thanks! (even though I’m unsure if that review-ness was even meant for me) :3
POWUH: Beginner (20-35) with 31 comments
I went into this summary thinking the only shows worth my time were Working!!, Persona 4, Guilty Crown and Last Exile, yet now I’m more excited with Tamayura and Coppelion. I hope the later does actually air this season!).
Oh, and more Kimi ni Todoke means more Ayane = Win Win Win!!!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Nice! Yeah there are a few surprise shows out there I will probably try a little of everything <3
POWUH: 800-899 and Flying Sage with 856 comments
I’ve heard good things about Coppelion, from manga readers, but I’m not sure we’ll be seeing it this season.
POWUH: Occasional (51-75) with 75 comments
I’ve been Waiting for this post!
THANK YOU for creating a comprehensive season preview post for retarded people like me ♥
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Ohhhhh we have been waiting to post it for a while, LOL Well we try to help our readers out.
POWUH: and Yaoi Fangirl~ with 2320 comments
Oh god Kyokai I love Tales of Symphonia how could you say that ;___; But it’s releasing in the winter anime season, so it’s good that you didn’t put it in the list.
By the way, I looooveeee Tales of Symphonia. You know what this means *hint hint*
And that Natsume twins thingy? I thought it would be about bunch of girls, but it’s actually about bunch of guys. Has lots of yaoi pairing potentials. Will watch for the gheyness
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
What did I say?! =P
Tales of Symphonia is getting so many OVAs like every season, we can’t cover it every time. =P but you are always welcome to cover it. 😉
And about Kimi to Boku., I always thought it would be awesome if someone made the guys’ version of K-On! and look at this, our time is made. xD
POWUH: 400-499 with 406 comments
Love the new layout!
The only think I hate about fall is the lack of time I have for watching anime. D;
Definitely watching:
Show ▼
Fall is looking great so far!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
I love the layout too! Very cool xD
Trueeeeee some can watch anime all day!
Nice list I can’t wait for Guilty Crown, Working!!, and Mirai Nikki those seem like really fun shows to watch this season. Fingers crossed for Mirai Nikki not to be censored to much due to all the BLOOD…
POWUH: 400-499 with 406 comments
I know! I loved the all that blood in the manga. I really hope that it is present in the anime adaption.
POWUH: 400-499 with 489 comments
OMG YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you so much. Fall is the season for awesome anime. There’s like 6 animes airing on my birthday. CRAZYNESS I TELL YOU CRAZYNESS!
Im so happy that Bakuman is getting a 2nd season. The manga is so interesting. As well as all the other animes getting another season.
Detective Conan i love that show. All I need to do to catch up is watch more then 500 episode before october. Maybe I should just start watching the movies.
the animes are just so amazing I sooooo cant wait.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
You are welcome!!! Fall is looking amazing so many great looking shows, ooooh Happy early birthday! I know last year Kore wa Zombie desu ka? Came out on my bday too well a day before ahaha
WOW And I thought a series like One piece was huge xD
POWUH: 400-499 with 489 comments
ahhh thank you
lol actually the ones that are airing on my birthday are a day early 2. I still say it’s my birthday kuz the subs come out a day later, hopfully. >_<
POWUH: Meta Team and Megane-chan with 3214 comments
Happy early birthday!
I want to get into Conan. I really do, but 600 episodes seems like a hell of a lot XD. Good luck with that!
POWUH: 400-499 with 489 comments
ahhh thank you
Conan is really difficult to. I’m also reading the manga which is more easier… i think
POWUH: and Yaoi Fangirl~ with 2320 comments
DROP DROP DROP CONAN
Not that I hate it, and I HAD the manga. But since it’s not even done until NOW, I decided to stop. It’s making me broke
POWUH: 400-499 with 489 comments
lmao I always wonder when it will end. it’s been on since around the time I was born. I haven’t hit 100 episodes and I’m on the 13th volume (and counting), but im not going to give up. i might just stick to the manga it’s faster.
