So, spring is here and the keyword is (for me at least) 'zombies'. Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? of the Dead: I found the first season very enjoyable and this is therefore a must watch for me. First episode was good. Sankarea: Moar zombies! More traditional ones by the looks of it. Judging from the first episode, it's weirder than I had expected. Not necessarily a bad thing though Nazo no Kanojo X: More weird stuff. Been reading the manga and it's pretty funny. Ozuma: New, short sci-fi series with somewhat old school art style. First ep was decent. Accel World: First episode was okay. Not quite sure where it's going yet, but could be interesting.

Main character looks like the son of Renton and Eureka.

Which is why I don't think I'll like it. It seems forced that they would die, or leave their son behind and disappear somewhere. And if he's someone new, then for everything to happen all over again the same way cheapens the first series for me. Like everything they fought and died for never really meant anything.
Ozuma: I didn't even notice this the first time I looked, then I thought, Hey that looks like matsumoto leiji art. I guess I'm going to have to watch it... uchuu kyodai: astronauts and earth from space huh? Planetes was good enough to make me instantly want to watch this. Arashi no yoru ni: I liked the movie so much, looks like I'll try this one out. The animation might leave something to be desired, so my expectations are low. Nadia: just thought I'd mention that there's no need for me to rewatch this. Maybe had I not watched it last year, but seriously, this thing is going to take a year to finish. Eureka: easily going to be the best of the season tasogare otomexamnesia: I want to watch this because I like the ghost aspect, but I'm going to rage the whole way through about the amnesia. The only reason I read the description was because I didn't read the title first. God I hate amnesia. zombie: low expectations for greatness. High expectations for entertainment. Train hero: f40ph? Transformers? I'm in.

renton and eureka? Looks more like talho and holland to me.

"Parliamentary inquiry, Mr. Chairman - do we have to call the Gentleman a gentleman if he's not one?"

Yeah, I'm really hoping they will have a unique plot line, not just a rehashed repetition of the previous story. I might be giving them too much benefit of the doubt, but I'm expecting that the reasoning for his parents not being there will be explained or shown in a meaningful way at some point, and that they'll be reintroduced if they're still alive (which I'd guess they are). It should be interesting to see the things from the point of view of a half-Coralian, as that could also play into the storyline.
Accel World is being made into an Anime? The fuck, from what I understand, the manga hasn't even progressed very far. It is basically a Japanese version of The Matrix.
DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.
Sankarea and Tasogare Otome x Amnesia are definetly good shows as well. Apart from these, the season is a bit bleak.
