Amagami SS
Amagami SS
I already talked about this franchise in my recent Enterbrain piece, but if you missed it: Amagami is a PS2 (read: non-adult) visual novel about a shy high school boy who tries to get past his Christmastime trauma by scoring a date for this year's Christmas, and in the game he build enough of a relationship with one of a group of girls in order to ask her out for Christmas.The anime, titled Amagami SS, will also take an unusual tack from most anime of its ilk: rather than fusing different parts of each girl's storyline into one piece, and ending with t he main character winding up with one girl, each girl will have her own storyline animated. Which is pretty cool, so I'm looking forward to seeing how it winds up-- especially since I enjoyed the show's spiritual sister, KimiKiss. To my surprise, Amagami SS will air this July.
Wish Angel
Wish Angel
From the team that brought you the acrobatic anime Kaleido Star-- namely director Junichi Sato and designers Hajime Watanabe and Fumitoshi Oizaki --comes a new original anime titled Wish Angel. I can't give you many details about the story, unfortunately, since none have been released as yet, but if you liked Kaleido Star I'm betting this will be up your alley.
Hidan no Aria
Hidan no Aria / Scarlet Ammo Aria
Based on a light novel that takes place in a school for young detectives-- which trains them, among other things, in the use of weapons --Aria the Scarlet Ammo focuses on a particular student, second-year Kinji Tooyama, who has a unique ability in the school. But the school's top student is a young woman named Aria H. Kanzaki, who Tooyama bumps into one day...No staff or other details have been revealed at this time, but it sounds like the lone action title of this particular batch.
Seitokai Yakuindomo
Seitokai Yakuindomo
A 4koma comic strip series about a young man who enters a high school that just recently became coed after having been all-girls. Our hero, Tsuda Takatoshi, is asked to become the Student Council Vice President, the only male student council member surrounded by three wacky women......Yeah, it sounds a lot like Seitokai no Ichizon to me, too. More details will be released in May, from the look of it; the URL offered up in the announcement (http://www.starchild.co.jp/special/seitokai/) gives a 404 error, perhaps until that late May date.
And that's it! I'm tentatively interested in all of them, although Amagami probably the most. How's about you?
Crap, forgot to do that!
lol! A Yuki plug could never be boring! :)
As for the shows... I've said it before: Amagami SS has one of the most beautiful art styles I have ever seen in Anime (granted I haven't seen as much as many of you) for me this is a MUST.. even if it just to see the pretty drawings!
As for the rest.... I'll wait until Anime VIce tells me how good/bad the anime is
I will have to check these out. We all better pray moe isn't the next term to be crucified by "morals" and the government.
I'll throw it in just for repetition's sake.
