D.Gray-man anime is finished isn't it? Disappointing end but I too would like more.

Me too! Me too!

Eureka Seven Ao!!! The manga just barely started and they're shooting for an April release of the anime? ... not a good sign. But I hope... they will answer my questions about how the original series ended! I can't remember if it will be following the manga or the anime universe/timeline. It better be following the anime's. PLEASE!

Mmm... Am I imagining things or lot of it seems real, REAL generic? I do not tell it is bad -some of them seem something I might watch if I was bored-, but... That list looks completely average.

The thing has caught my attention the most is Ozuma. Reiji Matsumoto is one of the greats, so anything he makes gets my attention. It is also good Fushigi no Umi no Nadia is being re-released, and I am interested in the new Gundam movie.

I am curious about Momo e no Tegami. I do not know why, since I know nothing about it. Maybe it is because the art in that picture seems less generic than in the other pics.

I also thought of that when I saw the pic o.O .

Yeah (As long as they keep Timothy out of it), there's plenty of material to work with.

I know! That definitely made me do a double-take. It's probably just a Japanese dub of the original series.

I thought the Strongest Disciple Kenichi was supposed to be releasing an OAV (some time in March, I think was the date) -- was that just left off, or has it been delayed? (Or did I just miss it, somehow?)

I was excited when I saw Nadia listed; disappointed to see it's just a "remaster." Nothing else really caught my eye.

You haven't experienced the full cofusion of modern gender relations until you've heard an angry group of women yelling, "We want tentacles!" at an all-night Hentai-fest.

I gotta write some of these down so I can look them up later cause I don't have a good memory and some actually look cool. Hopefully I have time to watch some of them.

Thomas the Tank Engine? Didn't even know anyone outside the United Kingdom even knew about the little blue steam engine and his friends....I remember thre original series from my youth, never found it interesting then and don't see me getting interested in it 2 and a half decades later.

I thought the Rock Lee anime was going to start in Spring as well, not that i'd complain if it didn't but was sure I read somewhere it was. Hopefully Medaka Box is as enjoyable as the manga, still no sold on the choice of Medaka voice actress, as much as I enjoy Toyosaki, Aki's work, I just can't picture her doing the godly powerful voice I always envisioned Medaka having. Also looking forward to Kuroko no Basket, have read the manga for this and was pleasently surprised, was expecting a typical sports manga with a teenager who picks up the sport and just so happens to have a talent for it, turns out it's actually a manga about someone who doesn't have much talent in it but is so forgetable he can use it to his advantage.

I am a bit disturbed by the Uppote Anime, Underage kids and guns are two things I don't think should mix together.

Again... Thomas the Tank Engine? o.o

I'm surprised about Hiiro no Kakera. Wasn't expecting it to be adapted into an anime in so near a future. I haven't played the visual novel myself but from what I hear it's pretty good, so I hope the anime does it justice happy.gif Definitely going to be watching Fate Zero S2 as well. The first season was slow but it also left me vying for more. I hope it just means they saved all the action for S2.

Hyou-ka caught my eye because of the art but I'm a bit wary about it after reading the summary. I was expecting a school slice of life so I got excited (maybe because the art reminds me of Hanasaku Iroha). Mysteries aren't really my thing. I'll probably still give it a shot when it comes out.

I can't find any confirmation about the Rock Lee anime, but I did double check and the Historys Strongest Disciple Kenichi OAV is confirmed via other sources to have a release date of March 17th despite not being on this list. With one 'missing,' I wouldn't be surprised if there were other anime (Especially OAV\Movie type anime) which were left off the list.

(speaking of HSDK, does anyone know if there are any fansubbers planning to do that one, or have the US rights already been purchased?)

If you have never read it I suggest you do, it is a wonderful read a mix of horror and romance that works remarkably well

Maybe is a very good artist if they keep true to his drawings and story it should be amazing

I might have missed it on the chart but they are supposed to be making an anime of Nazo zo Kanaojo X (Mysterious Girlfriend X) as well

Yeah I saw the manga reviews and it was highly rated.

And Mysterious Girlfriend X?? Its not in the list but if there's gonna be an anime on it I don't know what to say. It could be interesting or downright boring.

Okay, after reading, here, about other "missing" shows, I went to the source page (neregate.com) and found that the image in the OP is outdated (that is version 2.0; current version is 3.1. Understandable, as the original post was made weeks ago). After a quick perusal, the current version is STILL missing the Kenichi OAV AND Nazo zo Kanaojo X, but does list the Rock Lee series.

Current version:
