Spring 2014 Anime Season Thread

[Tymon]

Some kind of announcement about Darker than Black is coming this spring. It's not S3, apparently, to everyone's chagrin.

Jojo is the only thing that's really standing out to me this season. I'm sure I'll end up watching a couple of other shows, but nothing is catching my eye right now.

Trigger Makes Anime of Inou-Battle in the Usually Daze Comedy Novels
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...-comedy-novels

The wraparound jacket band on the sixth volume of Kota Nozomi's Inō-Battle wa Nichijō-kei no Naka de (Inou-Battle in the Usually Daze) light novel series is announcing this week that an anime adaptation has been green-lit. The studio Trigger (Kill la Kill, Little Witch Academia) is producing the anime.

In the orignal novel series' story, the five members of the literature club awakened with extraordinary powers half a year ago. Although the members expected to be thrown into a world of super-powered battles (inō-battle) at their school, their normal daily routine continued. No secret organizations bent on world destruction, no super-powered wars, no braves or demon kings.

Wonder why no one posted this big news since Durarara was pretty popular when it aired.

The cast and staff of the Durarara!! anime franchise announced at Dengeki Game Festival 2014 on Sunday that a new Durarara!! television anime series is in the works. The story takes place a half year after the first series at Tokyo's Ikebukuro neighborhood, but the broadcast date has not been announced.

The main staff is reuniting for the new series, but Brains Base is not credited. Takahiro Omori is directing at the studio Shuka. Noboru Takagi is in charge of the scripts and Takahiro Kishida is designing the characters. Makoto Yoshimori is scoring the soundtrack.

It's a very strong character storyline. Bunch of different characters that all end up linked in interesting ways. Takes place in a somewhat realistic setting with some....not so realistic events occurring lol.

Biggest issue I had with it was the ending, since it is more of a to be continued, and it never continues. =x Not sure if it will ever get another season.

edit: I did really enjoy it though, just wish it had a real ending.

I finished my preview for the Spring 2014:

It has PVs for pretty much everything but so does the first post in this thread. There's actually quite a few shows that look to be decent from the PVs alone but it still looks like a weak season overall. There's also quite a few that are borderline, either watching or dropping, so this season might be pretty big or pretty small. Be interesting to see what everyone thinks once the shows start airing.

For I am excited for:

Jojo
Mushishi Zoku-Shou
Gundam Unicorn.
Ping Pong The Animation(Manga is amazing)

Spoiler: show

Hanamonogatari(May 31).

Ano Natsu de Matteru OVA.


Rest will be on first time watch but I know I'm going to be watching "Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka?" as my wife was screaming at the cuteness of the trailer.

Spoiler: show
