ZeroG: This looks lame as fuck, I there doesn’t seem to be anyone dying in that anime! Why would they make something like that?
Oki: ……
Vantage: So I bet there’s one with huge boobs, a bibliophile, a trap, a glasses girl, a really violent one, maybe even a tsundere! What fun. *note the sarcasm*

Lupin Overall Thoughts

Eva: Compared to the summer line up, this definitely has a handful of shows that we can potientially all enjoy. Hopefully it won’t disappoint me like the Summer season had and live up to our expectations. I’m mostly looking forward to watching Shakugan no Shana III, Fate/Zero and Gundam Age. The rest are mainly left to gamble whether I’ll enjoy them or not.
ZeroG: Looks like a slow season is about to hit, of course there might be some surprise, there always are some.After all Summer 2011 was looking like an horrible season and there were so many awesome shows in it in the end. But Fall 2011 has many season 2, so the people who liked the original show must be really excited to see what is next with some of their favorite show. But since I haven’t watched a single of the original, this season I will probably cover less than usual.
Oki:  This is my season. MY SEASON! My boyfriend has something to watch so I won’t have to ignore him, the art is so beautiful and aside from the ones I’m ignoring there is some interesting stuff. Thank god because last season was SHIT.
Vantage: Normally before I start each season I feel like the next 3 months of anime are gonna be a load of BS, but thankfully Fall 2011 isn’t one of them. There’s a lot of retarded or just plain dodgy titles floating around though, like The Gay Show S2 or Fujilog. I’m not sure whether Sunrise are doing more harm than good this season, there’s the trading cards anime as well as the puzzle one that I don’t think should be there. Series slated for pure epic win include Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon and Persona 4, Shana III is gonna be fucking epic too. In terms of blogging I think I might have signed up for a couple more than I can handle, so after the first ep impressions I’ll probably drop a few if they don’t strike my fancy. Overall, an interesting season that will easily be better than Summer if most of the anime turn out right.
