The next batch! We’ve got some good ones here

Minami-ke: The keeper that I was looking for. You could say that this is the kind of anime that I’m into right now. Comedy + slice of life + a bit of randomness. Like Lovely Complex. Like Lucky Star. Things like Nodame Cantabile too. Anyway. The tone is simple, set by the neutral colours. And then you’ve got Kana’s personality. Hehe. Their mouths are drawn in such an unconventional way that I’m in love with the shape. It’s hard to describe it - a cross between a rain drop, a hershey kiss, and dough…?? xD

Kaiji: I’m not too excited about the drawing style. It kinda reminds me of American cartoons. But I think it’s appropriate given the story and setting. And the story/setting seems like a good one. While it may not make it over to my hard drive, I am fairly certain that this is one of the shows that I will follow.

Dragonaut ~The Resonance~: Doesn’t seem that interesting to me at this point. Maybe if these “dragons” look cool then I’ll keep watching. The Kazuki guy seems like the typical best-friend-got-jealous because the main char was special and he could only ever stay at the sidelines kinda thing. Oh, and one thing I can say this show: boobs.

Bamboo Blade: I’m actually kinda tired of the whole high school setting. I just noticed that. But I do like the art, and I don’t know much about Kendo, so I’ll give this a few more eps. Tama-chan reminds me of that quiet girl from Negima. Heh.

ef - a tale of memories: The way they make the scene cuts and stuff (it’s probably not the right terminology lol) more artistic and unique than the usual show is what attracts me about this show. Otherwise it seems kinda typical, something along the lines of sola.

Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun: Hayate? That’s the association that my mind made when I watched this. Nothing too spectacular. Of course lots of fanservice for the boys. But I’m not a boy. lol.

KimiKiss Pure Rouge: Yay more high school kids. [/sarcasm] The girl near the end seemed interesting. We’ll see.

So I watched all this yesterday. And after that my brain was just mushmush. With the exception of Shugo Chara and Myself; Yourself, I think I’ll just continue on to ep 2 for everything else.

Just downloaded Suteki Tantei Labyrinth 01. Wonder how many more new shows there’ll be >_>

Btw I’m not checking out anything sequels to shows I haven’t watched. e.g. Shakugan no Shana II, oh and I gave up on Da Capo at the beginning of season 2.

D.gray-man 52 had a new OP and I was sorta pleasantly surprised by that. Not sure why. I do miss the first OP for some reason though, but I have to say that I find abingdon boys school to be a lame name, and I hate watching the main vocalist perform. He looks so weird too @_@
