My pick is Someday's Dreamers II: Sora. I'm interested in how it would turn out for me when I finish the first Someday's Dreamers. I already read most of the manga versions from the franchise, but for completion's sake, I hope all the anime versions turn out to be fun as well. Should most likely be fun for audiences that like Fantasy or Magical Girl anime.

MAJOR NOTE!: This was to be unveiled as an article last week, but sadly it didn't come through then since sora_thekey was to go to his vacation at the time of this one. His pick was meant to be iDOLM@STER, but, his message didn't come through since he always inserts his thoughts in the article version instead of a PM where we normally build tables like this. We didn't expect this either, but life happens.

They're releasing Casshan again on DVD? i wish they would release it on bluray or some remastered version at least. I have the original one from Manga UK and the quality of the new blu-ray screens is amazing when compared to the copy i have.

Bloody Monday is my pick from this one. I already have the new release of Tenchi Universe (I need to finish it and post a review).

Sorry guys, I forgot my picks. I pick Casshan because I'm interested in Casshern Sins, and I'm curious to see all the differences from the live adaptation movie that Tom reviewed and this one.
