The new season is underway and it looks like there finally might be a couple of shows I'll actually finish this time.
Decided to give
Yahari a try. I just hope it turns out to be better than most other romantic high school comedies =P
Then there's new seasons of
Ore no Imouto and
Railgun. Guess it'll be more of the same from the previous seasons of those.
Finally there's my favourite so far;
Shingeki no Kyojin. Just finished watching the second episode and I can't wait till next week for ep3. Been a while since I've had that feeling about a series
Also dat
Steins;Gate movie. Probably have to wait for the DVD release of that one though
There will be some
Higurashi as well at some point. Not sure if it's a movie or OVA though.
I will definitely second your thoughts on Shingeki no Kyojin
It's pretty awesome so far, and probably the best of the season.
Railgun should be more plot-centric than the previous season, since Accelerator will be showing up. Should be fairly good.
Also looking forward to the Steins;Gate movie, and more Higurashi! Hopefully it'll be a little more in theme than Kira was.
As per Aristocrat's recommendation, I checked out
Suisei no Gargantia, and it seems interesting so far.
Watching
Aku no Hana as well, which prompted me to read the manga. It's dark and a bit creepy at times, although some people seem to really hate the animation style (rotoscoped). I've heard it was the author's decision to do it rotoscoped to make it more realistic, and to make the viewer uneasy; I'd say mission accomplished.
The only concern I have is that the pacing seems slow compared to the manga; at the current rate they're going, they won't finish 25% of the published storyline before the end of the season. I guess that'd just mean more seasons to look forward to though
It's a little different and more unsettling than most anime (especially the ED, wtf lol). I'd recommend at least watching the first episode.

Sounds interesting. I'll check it out before going to bed.
Edit:
Just watched first episode. I really like the mood and the art style. Definetly going to keep watching it.
