Anime Season Spring 2012: What Will You Watch?

If you're not aware of what's going to be airing/released here's a chart (not finalized)

http://deluscar.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/neregate-com-spring-2012-anime-v3-1.png

Shows I'll definitely watch:

*Queen's Blade: Rebellion (I LOVE Queen's Blade!)

*Zetman (looks awesome!)

*Lupin III: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine (I'll watch anything Lupin related)

Shows I'll eventually watch in the future:

*Is this a Zombie season 2
(waiting for Funimation to release season 1 first)

*Rock Lee spin-off
(I'll patiently wait for VIZ to pick it up and dub it)

*Saint Seiya Omega
(still have to finish watching the original series)

Shows I'll maybe watch:

*Ozuma (I've enjoyed many Leiji Matsumoto titles)

*Arashi no Yoru ni Himitsu no Tomodachi
(the movie was VERY good, I hope the TV series turns out great as well)

*Mysterious Girlfriend X

Bizarre premise but apparently the manga is really good. It'll also be Hoods Entertainment's first non-god tier ecchi show.
I know some hardcore fans are flipping out thinking Hoods will screw it up but they should know that the director isn't Hiraku Kaneko who directed Manyuu Hikenchou and Seikon no Qwaser. Personally I hope this show succeeds and an R1 company picks it up. Then during negotiations Qwaser and Manyuu will be included too
Package deals make sense for a new company that hasn't licensed out any of their anime yet. tongue

OVAs/Specials/Movies I'll definitely watch:
Kenichi OVAs
Holy Knight
Lupin Ikka Seizoroi
Future Diary unaired episodes
Is This a Zombie OVA (when Funimation releases the first season)
Strike Witches the Movie (I'll wait for FUNi to license plus I still have to watch season 2)
Maken-Ki! OVA (already watched)

Hope some of these titles get simulcast and licensed so I can watch them legally. wink

Re: Anime Season Spring 2012: What Will You Watch?

Definitely watch:
Fate/Zero 2 - Season 1 was pretty awesome. Not 500 dollars for a DvD set awesome, but I'll definitely watch the streams.
Jormungand - I've heard it described as "Black Lagoon-ish" and that's enough for me.
Space Bros - Bros. In. Space. Their dog has a space suit!

Might check out:
Sakamichi no Appolon - Shinichiro Watanabe directed Jazz anime with music by Yoko Kanno? I'm sold.
Eureka 7 Ao - Pretty indifferent about the first season, but I'll give it a shot.
Ozuma - New Leiji Matsumoto show? I'm down.
Sankarea - I've read a bit of the manga and it wasn't awful. Might be worth a shot.

For the lulz/Possible trainwrecks
Upotte! - Moé assault rifles? Really? Who comes up this crap?!
Haiyore Nyaruko-san - Moé Lovecraft?! Seriously Japan, wtf is wrong with you?!
Korean Zombie Desk Car 2

Guilty pleasures
Strike Witches Movie

Re: Anime Season Spring 2012: What Will You Watch?

Let's see...using that list you linked to, I'm interested in the following -

Naruto SD: Rock Lee no Seishun Full Power Ninden - Rock Lee is my favorite character in Naruto, so I'm definitely interested in checking out a show with him as the lead.
Lupin the 3rd: The Woman Named Fujiko - A little 'ehh' on this but, it's Lupin.
Zetman - LOVE the manga, definitely one of my other favorites from Katsura, and I'm hopin the anime will do it justice.
Yurumates - It looks cute and amusing enough.
Lupin Ikka Seizoroi - It's Lupin the 3rd, 'nuff said.
Amagami SS+ - Still need to see the first series, but it looks great.
s-CRY-ed Alterataion II Quan - Still need to see the first movie, but I LOVE s-CRY-ed.
