I know it's a bit early again and the autumn season has just started but you know me, I like to start picking shows out well in advance lol. Don't worry if you're not picking any out yourself for a month or two. :) -- (A chart for this season can be viewed here)

These are the shows I'll be watching but I may not pick all of them up from their first air date now that TOR is out and some of the shows from last season are going to overlap;
  • - Natsume Yuujinchou Shi (Takahiro Omori | Brains Base) [January 2012] <- 4th season!. You guys should really consider watching series 1-3 before January so you can watch this too. Such a lovely series and by the looks of it Ava & I are the only two to have seen any of it.
  • - Nisemonogatari (Shinbou, Akiyuki | SHAFT) [January 2012] <- Sequel to Bakemonogatari
  • Ano Natsu de Matteru (Tatsuyuki Nagai | J.C. Staff) [January 2012] <- From the director of AnoHana.
  • Black★Rock Shooter (Ordet | noitaminA) [January 2012] <- The OVA of this wasn't too bad actually so will see what the series is like.
  • Another (Tsutomu Mizushima | P.A. Works) [January 2012] <- From the director of Blood-C so that may or may not be a good thing depending what you thought of that. Do like the sound of it.

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

I was planning to try Black Rock Shooter when the OVA came out, but it ended up looking very different to what I was hoping it would be. Might go back and re-consider it if they're doing a series and it looks interesting...

That said though, far too early for me to be considering Winter yet. Autumn hasn't even started! Lol. You're terrible :p

:lol:
What are you saying?!. Bakuman 2, Kimi to Boku, Working S2 & Fate/zero have already started airing! :p
Some of the better looking ones are still to come mind. The main 3 being Guilty Crown / UN-GO / Persona4. The latter of which starts tomorrow and the other 2 next week. Can't wait :D

Finished chart is up. In short, it looks like Winter will be another atrocious season. I might pick up the Gundam SEED HD Remaster, because I enjoyed the original show, but beyond that it looks like there's absolutely nothing palatable for me.

Roll on Spring methinks...
