Here's a quick rundown of the new shows I'm most interested in this coming season...
Definitely watching...
» To Heart - Remember my Memories - More To Heart!
» Genshiken - Otaku jokes galore. The manga's great.
Very interested in...
» Yakitate! Japan - It's about baking bread. Seriously.
» School Rumble - Looks fun. Nice character designs.
» BECK - Could be a nice breath of fresh air.
Sort of interested in...
» Kannazuki no Miko - The girls are cute. That gets my attention, at least.
» Gankutsuou - Could be a flop, could be brilliant. We'll see.
» Kakyusei 2 - Cute girls again. The first series wasn't all that bad.
» Mai-Hime - Probably overhyped, but deserves a look.
As you can see, I'm starting to get burnt out on all the bishoujo fare. To Heart - Remember my Memories is the notable exception - I suffer from chronic fanboyism.
Note that I'll be out of town the second week of October, so I'll be slower than usual watching and blogging first episodes. The rest of the anime blogosphere will be on top of things, no doubt.
I didn't watch To Heart before so I might... well, I probably will watch "Remember My Memories". More bishoujo for me!

What?? You are loosing interesting in Bishoujo? My good friend you have lead me to some very outstanding anime in this wonderful genre. I have shared your views on a great many such anime, a notable exception being Shingetsutan Tsukihime. I will definitely miss your interpretation of things. I hope to see you back in the fold soon. Perhaps during this exciting fall season.
"Air". That should be up this season. If you want semi-old stuff, you have "Hani Hani" and "Wind" (and I say semi-old because the "Wind" OVA series is still going on, though I don't know about the television series because I'm waiting for NNL's version). Other than that, I can't really help you here.
