Mm, I see a lot of cast info this week although I'm more eager to see some of the previews soon. Too bad about the High School Girl incident though. That's a bit of a shame.

Good to know the info on Amagi Brilliant Park especially with the director this time. Also, I am really curious about to see an animated PV of World Trigger.

Twintails looks like a stupid fun anime. Sure can't pass that. I'm expecting a really low budget with lots of QUALITY given that it's Production IMS. DAL II was just littered with it.

Gotta make some time to read World Trigger and Trinity Seven, probably next month. Though with Toei handling the former and the quality of Sailor Moon Crystal, I'm not too optimistic about it.

Still waiting for the whole cast announcement of Vanadis.

I haven't even noticed this was scheduled for Fall. I guess It's going to be REALLY average in every aspect. Taking into account that I have quite a solid number of shows I'm willing to watch this Fall I might end up dropping this unfortunately. But oh well, we'll see how this anime will start up.

Love him or hate him he does well for SHAFT. He's one of the big names knocking about these days and so long as he's available he will lead the line animating for the company; given his popularity and the success and acclaim of most of his shows, they'd be silly not to utilise him whenever they can. I can't really speak for all his shows, but you've got the likes of the Monogatari series and Madoka Magica which a lot of people love, but recently Mekuka City Actors (which I haven't seen) which was met with much disappointment on here at least, but still seemingly managed to sell well; that's what he brings to the table even if some of his shows seem less-than-stellar to many people.

I can't see Shinbo not animating for SHAFT at this present time unless he takes a break or suddenly a mass of people go off his whole art style which everyone loves which would mean deteriorating acclaim for him. I've noticed a gradual increase in people complaining about Shinbo being "limited" and not doing anything different with his style which I can understand but it really doesn't bother me as much as it does some people, sure I would like to see him show if he can do anything different as a director but if he wants to continue doing the same thing as he's doing now then fine; so long as the people unhappy with his style stays a minority then he doesn't have much to worry about.

Hopefully Koufuku Graffiti sells, it's been a rollercoaster with Manga Time Kirara Adaptations, Kiniro Mosiac sold enough for a second season, Sakura Trick sold terribly, Gochiusa sold as well as Dog Days, and Hanayamata most likely won't sell well.

Yuki Kaji again, huh.
"The final episode of the OVA will be bundled with the 14th Manga Volume on April 15th, 2015." Fucking finally =_= I waited like, 2 years, man.
"High Score Girl have been recalled due to a possible copyright claim on the use of game characters." "High Score Girl's serialization will be affected."
They should just let it slide.
Congratulations to Hitomi Nabatame~
Rest in peace to Shuusei Nakamura~
