What does the Winter bring, if not yet another Spring? (More obscure references, that’s what.)

I am in the process of putting together a Spring summary, which is delayed because of work, travel and real life. If you are aching for a summary, then there are several other Spring charts floating around the internets that provide a good overview. I hope to get one out in a few days, either way.

  • Kuroshitsuji is in July.
  • Strike Witches is not airing this season.
  • Sekirei is not airing this season.
  • Black Rock Shooter is an OVA.
  • Even if movies are apparently “released” on a certain date, they are usually in theatres and so won’t be released online anywhere near the date.
  • 2000-2009 charts are coming along somehow

Enjoy Winter.

Just a quick update – the quick poll on the right shows that the most anticipated shows of Winter ‘ 10 are:

  1. Dance in the Vampire Bund654
  2. Durarara!!613
  3. Ookamikakushi282
  4. SoRaNoWoTo273
  5. Qwaser of Stigmata266

Frankly, i’m not surprised at all at the popularity of these shows. Have a nice Winter season, and the Spring chart should be up in a month’s time.

[now with the CORRECT days of the week, soz]

A new year, a new batch of shows, and plenty of opportunity to ignore all the good anime that air and spend the rest of the  time complaining about anime not being as good as it used to be.  But hey, maybe this year you’ll get lucky and develop taste!

Rant aside, this is the final version of Winter’s Chart – Overall, 22 weekly TV shows and 12 new OVAs. I’ve decided to move Katanagatari back to TV because obviously that’s where it airs, but also it’s 12 episodes of an hour long regardless of what time they actually get put on TV – so it’s less of an OVA than most of the  single DVD releases that make up the main batch of OVA. Also, I needed some means of fitting The Legend Of Koizumi in, fuck year.

As for new shows, nothing besides short mobile gag thingies that I doubt people will watch…but wait! We have Cobra: The Animation as a late entry, so that could be a pleasant surprise of Manliness and Burning Spirit.

Have a nice new year, and enjoy this stupidly long chart.

Obnoxious Layout update

•December 6, 2009 • 2 Comments

Due to boredom amongst other things, I’ve decided to get a new theme with a central layout, make a few icons for the most useful things on the site, stick in a new poll, play around with the sidebar, categorise and tag things, and play around with L shapes and call it a banner. I have a life, honest.
Anyways, enjoy~

Winter 10 – V2

•December 5, 2009 • 32 Comments

No power metal homages this time, but I do have Version 2 of the Winter chart. Now with a few OVAs and some continuations to boot, though much like the TV series there aren’t as many as in Major seasons. As for new TV series, nothing much except for Gag Manga, magical girl show with corresponding colours and fruit names sequel Heart Catch Precure, card games in space sequel Weiß Survive R, and Kato Reinya which I apparently have no sarcastic synonym for.

Enjoy, and stuff.

(Oh, and I guess i’ll change the site layout at some point as well.)

Obscure song lyrics aside, Winter ‘10 V2 is coming along slowly AND surely. However, I have stuff to do right now that determine how I spend a significant portion of the rest of my short life, so obviously this takes a back seat. If you’re feeling lucky, expect something this weekend.

Ta-rah!
