Thus, Kou becomes her boyfriend, but has to live with her under the bridge…
Animation Production: SHAFT | 04-2010
Seiyuu: Show ▼
Tsui: Another show I’m definitely checking out. SHAFT might not be best on adopting something with a serious storyline, but this one is just random, quirky, funny so I think this would be right up their alley. I think I’m gonna enjoy this.
Kanz: I read the manga and I’m really liking it so far. I agree, the comedy is so SHAFT, and everything about this show is so ready to be SHAFTed already. Plus, I can’t wait to hear Kamiyan and Maaya Sakamoto together~.
.: Yojo Shinwa Taikei :.
>> The 2005 novel follows a nameless protagonist who is a third-year college student. The protagnoist looks back at the earlier years of his college life and his adventures with a particular circle (club).
Animation Production: Madhouse | 04-2010
Kanz: Looks interesting. Character designs are from Yusuke Nakamura, who designs Asian Kung-fu Generation album arts. Other than that, there’s nothing much more to say… lol.
Tsui: Since you already stole my line, I’ll just add this: This is the Spring offering of the Noitamina block. Well, it’s Noitamina, so it better be promising. I’ll wait for a trailer.
.: RAINBOW – Nisha Rokubo no Shinchin – :.
>> The story of are seven teenagers in 1955, who have to learn to live together in the same hold in the reformatory of Shio. Confined in a hall where suffering and humiliation are daily, they are waiting for a ray of hope in a dark, incarcerating world. It follows their life together and how they move on afterwards.
04-2010
Kanz: Umm… No. Too emo.
Tsui: Err… Me pass too.
.: House of Five Leaves :.
>> Masterless samurai Akitsu Masanosuke is a skilled and loyal swordsman, but his naïve, diffident nature has time and again caused him to be let go by the lords who have employed him. Hungry and desperate, he becomes a bodyguard for Yaichi, the charismatic leader of a gang called “Five Leaves.” Although disturbed by the gang’s sinister activities, Masa begins to suspect that Yaichi’s motivations are not what they seem. And despite his misgivings, the deeper he’s drawn into the world of the Five Leaves, the more he finds himself fascinated by these devious, mysterious outlaws.
Animation Production: Manglobe Inc. | 04-2010
Seiyuu: Show ▼
Kanz: NO, lol. Ristorante Paradiso gets Samurai.
Tsui: Pass again.
.: Giant Killing :.
>> In “Giants Killing”… (sypnosis interrupted by Kanzeon)… Kanzye: Yo, I’mma let you finish… but OOKIKU FURIKABUTTE IS THE BEST SPORTS ANIME OF ALL TIME! OF ALL TIME!!!!
Tsui: Err.. okay, I’ll just continue the sypnosis… In the world of football, once the fans turn on a team the end is near. Teams don’t recover. Coaches are fired, players are sold, and teams drop to smaller divisions where profits often prevent them from ever being successful against even mediocre top division programs. East Tokyo United, ETU, can only blame their coach right now. And Coach is ready to give up this next game to prove to his team and fans, that against the biggest club in the nation he can make this team when.
Animation Production: Studio DEEN | 04-2010 | 26 episodes
Tsui: Seems pretty cool. Might watch but it has to be amazing for me to blog it.
Kanz: I don’t know, I never liked any sports anime aside from Oofuri (I despised the rest. And sorry, Cross Game got lame too) so I’m having really low expectations with this genre.

First of all, holy crap you guys are fast at this! O___O
Next, I’m definitely looking forward to OOFURI TWO!!! Also checking out Angel Beats, Working, and of course, Hetalia 3 lolz.
Nooo, this is making me worry so much about the Maid-sama anime :sad3
POWUH: iLurker with 5 comments

Wow, Spring definitely looks so promising! Can’t count how much shows I want to check out XD.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 77 comments
ohhh thanks so much for the awesome list! i’ll definitely watch Angel Beats, Arakawa Under the Bridge (SHAFT oh yeah), Kaichou wa Maid-sama!!, Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitte Iru, Black Rock Shooter
YESSSS!!!!
POWUH: iLurker with 8 comments
So many shows I want to check out! Oofuri 2 is highest priority. Poor Hakuouki is destined to fail in my book because I just don’t think it’s possible for any shinsengumi to be better than the ones in Gintama.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 126 comments
All I’m excited for is black star shooter 😀 since it’s the only one I know about,,,there’s soo many shows, I can’t wait to watch them all! spring season is coming so fast,, it’s so exciting xD

Oh man, Kamiyan and Maayan. If only the heroine were black-haired and I would have to stop watching anime because of the perfect-ness. Oh and Noto Mamiko would have to be in it as well but that’s another matter. Arakawa looks great. Angel Beats and Black Rock Shooter as well. I hope Kaichou is good, that would really put a downer on my year. This year was bad enough already the moment Kara no Kyoukai was finished releasing. Still waiting on that blu-ray though…..
and that NA licensing…..
for the novels or the anime…..
please help me out funimation!
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 101 comments
Black Rock and Angel Beats definitely on my top watch list. LOL @ Iron Man and Heroman.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 78 comments
Omg!! This is so fast, I knew I could count on here! Thankies <3.
Definitely looking forward to Black Rock Shooter and Angel Beats, of course. The Iron Man anime.. uhm, I gotta say that the animation looks good. Though about Heroman, I think it's just lulz.
I'm also looking forward to Working! I love what's I'm seeing with their promos so far and it could be a very fun watch indeed~
Yay for Kamiyan getting lots of roles this year! Also not surprised that the two K-ON! girls are bagging a lot of roles as well.
The Den of Bishies and Fangirling FTW~ <33 I'm also gonna check out… all here. Well, maybe except from the Hakuouki one. Meh.. But YAY for Oofuri 2 and Maid-sama!!! Might check out Uragiri as well. I love how JC Staff does two shoujo anime at the same time. Let's see if they could beat Kimi ni Todoke's amazing-ness~
Thanks for the preview!!! 😉

Yosh, getting ready for Spring season! >///<
Thank you for the list, it's easier to choose the shows to watch with your posts!
I'm so checking AngelBeats, Arakawa, BRS and Working!!~ and of course I’m looking forward for Oofuri2 and Hetalia3~ and K-ON2 too.
Kaichou is failing so hard @ almost everything right now, so I’m not sure about it. But I’ll watch 1st ep anyway.
Also will check the first eps of MayoiNeko, Uragiri and Haiyoru!Nyaru-Ani just for fun.
Yay, Kamiyan is getting so many roles! I lovelovelove him for voicing Izaya and Zetsubou-sensei <3 Yoko will be great to hear as well, love her voice~

Giants Killer – Because im a sucker for sports, and especial football anime/manga.
Yojo-han – I might give it a look just becuse the premise and art took my attention.
Working! – At first, i thought i would not be seeing it because of stereotyped characters, but due to the advertisement its gettin, might give it a try.
Maid-sama – The only shojo im watching are KnT and Nodame,even though im not a fan of the genre, but if i read good critics, maybe i would be ready to give it a shot.
Arakawa- Im gonna check the manga, but it seems to have lots of lulz.
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ and Metanorn's Hime-chan~ with 371 comments
Yay~ Thanks for getting your catalogue out as quick as always. ^^
Now I can check off all the iffy ones. *too lazy to go looking for info herself* |D;
BRS and Angel Beats are pretty much a guaranteed watch for anyone. Also checking out Senko no Night Raid so hope it’ll be good enough to receive more attention than Soro no Woto did.
Working!! = yes~ <3
And I didn’t think there was so much “nyaaâ€-ing for Mayoi Neko. o.O;
Hmm, Arakawa Under the Bridge looks really interesting so will probably check that out.
And here’s to hoping Kaichou will get a little better by the time it’s out. The only thing holding it up is the fame the manga’s getting. =.=
Yep…wow, taking only 6 shows seriously so far. Then again, this is MUCH better than Winter so anything can better.

[…] nother blog with Spring anime list They include seiyuu lists. Disappointed with no news yet for roles for Rie Kugimiya, Rie Tanaka, and I’d like to hear Ayuru Ohashi (aka Erika Nakai) again. She was AWESOME as Eila in Strike Witches. Possibly related posts: (automatically generated)Spring Anime 2007Spring 2008 Anime PreviewSpring Anime Lineup – “A lot of choices eh..?” […]
