Great News! Winter 2009

As the birds leave for the south (except for a dozen ducks who are probably going to spend the winter in our yard) I got first sight of the Winter season roster.

Chu-Bra is on it! YAY!

UPDATE: Here's the NSFW Homepage.

UPDATE: ANN's got a page for it now. The voice of Nagato Yuki is in it.

And the voice of Segawa Izumi from Hayate is in it. I don't know that series or that character.

Official production house is ZEXCS, who did Macademi Wasshoi. This is sounding better by the minute.

1 Let me be Cap'n Obvious: no "Dance in theVampire Bund" for you. Vampires and Gore! And Lolis!

2 I think "Hanamaru Kindergarten" terrifies me even more than that one does. A Gainax show featuring three five-year-olds, one of whom has a crush on her teacher? Shoot me now.

3 Shoot, you're right. I hadn't noticed the Gainax label there. And I had thought it looked like a good choice. There's still interesting stuff like Prof. Layton and Yona Yona Penguin. There's also a Halo OVA. Wait, what?!

4 No sign of Strike Witches S2, eh.

BTW, Cat Shit One comes out January 10. Not sure about the format, if it's even a series or a movie.

Strike Witches S2 doesn't sound like it'll be any good at all, so I'm not really eager for it. I'm also not expecting it any time soon, given the kind of economic trouble Gonzo is in.

They didn't have a show in the Fall season, and it looks like they won't have one in Winter, either. I think they're dead in all but name.

7 More Hidamari Sketch!  Yay!

8 It's relatively common for sequels to switch studios, see Minami-ke for one. So we can yet see Strike Witches by Madhouse or other.

9 I want Studio Fantasia to do it.

10 After watching Kampfer I'll settle for Nomad.

11 I can't believe they actually made a series from Baka to Test. It would have been cute and funny if it had actually made any sense.

Ok, I'm kidding. It would have been funny if they'd hauled the manga-ka out and beaten him with a ream of test papers, then sent him back to re-work the idea behind the fighting.  The premise of the show was so thin as to deaden the imagination and the rules change by the minute. 

In concept, it kind of reminds me of Maburaho, only stupider..

A show that's about underwear? It's got to be done by the studio that did Najica Blitz Tactics and Aika R-16. Who else in the industry knows more about panty shots than Studio Fantasia?

...yeah, Nomad would be fine, too...

13 I'm just saying that although models in Kampfer are not as tasteful as in Magikano, they sure are an improvement over Sekirei; mostly on the top because Sekirei was too grotesque there, but including bottom shots.

14 The character designs will have come from the manga, so that's not a function of the studio.

15 And for the record, I don't have an objection to the character designs in Sekirei!  Well, ok, if you stripped Tskumimi out of her clothes, the way she's drawn with them would make me think she's insanely wasp-waisted and top-heavy, even moreso than Musubi.  It could just be off-model drift though.

16 Kazehana was the same, BTW. It's just not how a healthy fighting woman is supposed to look like. Ikki Tousen was head an shoulders above Sekirei.
