So everyone are compiling their lists for the next season? So far 2013 has been pretty kind to me, and it seems like most of us here are enjoying what we've seen so far. As our current cour approaches its end, it's time to look onwards to the Summer season!
My initial impressions for Summer 2013 is that it's a pretty balanced season. There are a few big names, a huge number of sequels to established franchises but not too many things that have potential to become masterpieces. However, considering the overall amount of good titles and Shingeki no Kyojin + Railgun S both carrying forward, I don't think Summer will be a boring cour for most of us by any means.
Anime I will start following this season:
Free! [Kyoto Animation]
Stella Jogakuin Koutouka C3-Bu [Gainax]
Rozen Maiden [Studio DEEN]
Love Lab [Doga Kobo]
Uchoten Kazoku [P.A. Works]
Kitakubu Katsudou Kiroku [Nomad]
Servant x Service [A-1]
Kiniro Mosaic [Studio Gokumi]
Genei wo Kakeru Taiyou [AIC]
Fate/kaleid liner [Silver Link]
Monogatari Series: Second Season [SHAFT]
Genshiken Nidaime [Production I.G]
Kami-sama no Inai Nichiyoubi [Madhouse]
High School DxD NEW [TNK]
Tamayura ~More Aggressive~ [TYO Animations]
Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai: Megami Hen [Manglobe]
Gin no Saji [A-1]
Futari wa Milky Holmes [J.C.Staff]
Kimi no Iru Machi [Gonzo]
Anime I will continue to follow this season:
Shingeki no Kyojin [Wit Studio]
Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S [J.C.Staff]
Crayon Shin-chan [Shin-Ei]
Detective Conan [TMS]
Pokemon: Best Wishes 2 [Oriental]
Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL [Studio Gallop]
The big name series this time around are definitely Fate/kaleid liner, Monogatari Series: Second Season, and Free!. There are also plenty of sequels for established franchises such as The World God Only Knows, Rozen Maiden, Genshiken, Tantei Opera Milky Holmes and a bunch of other series we've seen before. So what is everyone here at NHRV going to follow?
And no, I'm not watching WataMote. That series is bad, and I would feel bad for watching it.
