I'm taking an accelerated language course the next five weeks, so I'll be much busier than usual. I'll still have time to watch anime, of course, but I might have some difficulty keeping to a regular schedule. Since I'm interested in fewer shows than usual this season, I'm hoping it'll all balance out.
Also, since Kurau - Phantom Memory has been licensed by ADV, I probably won't continue watching it. I'd watch it raw, but I'm afraid the details of the story will be too much for my limited Japanese to handle. Unfortunately, considering how slow ADV is with getting new shows out on DVD, and given how I'll probably be living overseas when it finally happens, it may be awhile before I can catch the show in full.
Oh, and a big hearty thanks to Right Stuf for licensing both To Heart and Boys Be. I've been waiting for a To Heart license for ages, but Boys Be was just icing on the cake. What a cool company.
I totally agree; Boys Be and To Heart are both great series that have lounged around unclaimed for too long. On a sidenote, what language are you taking?
Cool, German ^^
I'm from Germany, I could help whenever you want.. although I don't think you'd need it anyways.. *cough*
The only show of the season I'm interested in right now is Fafner, although the great opening sung by Angela influenced me a lot! ^.~
Yay for more OPs by Angela, though I heard it wasn't as stellar as the Stellvia OP/EDs. Still, I'm sure it'll grow on me after repeated exposure:)
