Titles not included in this preview :
Knight in the Area (Area no Kishi)

[Kameruka]

No Satria? Maybe it was delayed again but who knows.

Only Amagami seems promising though since I saw the first season and loved it.

[MeoTwister5]

Black Rock Shooter, Tantei Opera Milky Holmes, Another and.... dayum I hope this is an incomplete list.

[Kakkou]

So far for TV anime it's: Kyousogiga, BRS, Natsume Shi, Nisemono, Another, Ano Natsu and High School DxD and maybe: Danshi Koukou, Brave 10, Lagrange and Inu x Boku SS.

For OVAs the Itsuten x Denyuden crossover is the top of my list as wel as a bunch of others I'll check out at some point.

Satria is made for Malaysian audiences and not for the Japanese. It would be a real joke if they actually aired that thing there. GONZO's name would plummet right back to the ground.

[MisaoFan]

Anyone want Symphogear ?

[Marcus H.]

Name of the title : Black Rock Shooter
Percentage of expectations : Average
Why ? Since I'm working on the BRS Wiki, this is automatically on my To Watch list. Plus, I did like the concept on the OVA, although the staff is making me doubt a bit.

Name of the title : Nisemonogatari
Percentage of expectations : Very high
Why ? It's a Monogatari series, and I have rewatched Bakemonogatari when I heard this and Kizu getting an adaptation. It's enough proof to say that I'm really psyched for Nise.

[Kirarakim]

Hmm besides the 4th season of Natsume Yuujinchou (which is a must see for me) the only new series that stands out is Daily Life of High School Boys.

For my personal tastes it seems like a weak season but a lot of times I have said that in the past and have been pleasantly surprised.

[kitten320]

From the first look I seem to be interested only in the following:

Black Rock Shooter, well I saw the OVA and character designs are nice... besides I'm working on crossover AMV with this show so new material will be more than appraciated.

Mouretsu Pirates, the idea is kind of cliche but I like the poster so I'll give it a try.

Brave 10, I like the poster

Another, mysteries and drama were always my weaknesses

Among OVAs I will check the following:
Usagi Drop, Fairy Tail, Major, Toradora, Carnival Phantasm and Steins;Gate because I have seen the original series.

Among movies I'm waiting for K-ON and Berserk movie because I like the anime versions

[Haak]

What's with the ridiculous rules?

Anyway, I'm interested in the following:

Kyosogiga - Sounds awesomely bizarre
Black Rock Shooter - Liked the OVA. Love the fantasy world.
Natsume's Book of Friends IV - This one's a given. Love the series.
Brave10 - My daily dose of Gar.
Rinne no Lagrange - If it's anything like Railgun then I'm all up for it.
Nisemonogatari - Another given. Loved Bakemonogatari.
Another - It's a real bitch trying to Google this one. Anyway it look kinda serious and dark so I'm interested.
Ano Natsu de Matteru - Like the art and it looks like a romantic comedy that isn't a typical harem so it looks good.

Maybe pile:
Papa no Iu Koto o Kikinasai - It's obviously going to be very different to Usagi Drop but i am hoping there are at least some similarities. But if it's going in the other direction then I'm out.
Daily Lives of Highschool Boys - Hope it's not as much of a fail as Kimi to Boku. If it is then I won't continue.
Inu x Boku SS - Rather interesting premise, but I don't like the idea of the main male character being a doormat manservant.
Recorder to Randoseru - Another interesting premise but I can't tell much from it so I don't know if it'll be good or not.

As for the OVAs and Films - Too many to list.

[ahelo]

Nisemonogatari - Bakemonogatari is my no.1 anime all time.
Another - Always excited for the next PA Works production.
Daily Lives of High School Boys - School Rumble/Gintama director?
Kyousogiga - Looked interesting.

[jzmagic]

Ano Natsu de Matteru: Rom com w/ Onegai Teacher character designer? Count me in
Another: Looks like it will be a good thriller
ZNT
High School DxD: Love these rom coms

[larethian]

for a start:
I'll never definitely NOT watch New Prince of Tennis.

for a second start:
Papa no Iu Koto o Kikinasai!: I have long heard of how good this is from various communities, so I'll use this as an indication of whether to pick up the novels. Though if it gets into top 10 in the coming "This Light Novel is Amazing 2012" (7 more days), I'll pick it up anyway.

Nisemonogatari: Do I need to say more?

Denyuuden X Itsuten: I'll actually get this with volume 9 anyway.

For High School DxD: I'm torned because of Hikasa Youko. But there's a good chance this series will be ruined because it will be fan-servicedfied, and 80% of Fujimi Shoubo's stories are disastrously adapted except for comedies like Zombie and Seitokai.

We shall see for the rest.

[Ascaloth]

Nothing catches my eye for this season, save the obvious: Nisemonogatari.

Hoping there's still more to come that I might be interested in, though.

[webkid94]

Natsume Yuujinchou Shi
Expectations: Very High/Super Excited
Why?: My #1 favorite series of all time getting a rare 4th season? I'm in for that!

Black Rock Shooter
Expectations:: Medium
Why?: Looks alot like Ga:Rei-zero which i loved and a new animation studio makes it more interesting to see how it goes.

Another
Expectations: High
Why?: P.A. Works is consistently churning out high quality animation and Another's premise is very interesting me. Director of Blood-C though...

Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou
Expectations: Medium
Why?: I knew when it had the word "Nichijou" in it, suddenly people thought of the other Nichijou. Hmm, Gintama director is worrying me a bit...maybe it will be good.

[Bila]

Well lets see, for the sequels:
Nisemonogatari, Natsume 4 and Zero no Tsukaima
For the news shows:
Inu x Boku SS: Looks cool, and i liked the designs.
Another: Mystery, well lets see.
Kill me Baby: looks a kinda funny ~

[Guardian Enzo]

Daily Lives of High School Boys - Getting it right when Kimi to Boku couldn't?
Another - PA Works, excellent premise. #1 of the season
Natsume Yuujonchou Shi - Duh
Ano Natsu de Matteru - Interesting pedigree

If this were a complete list I'd be very worried, as it looks like an extremely weak season. Fortunately there are several more shows that aren't on it.

[MisaoFan]

Anyone want to watch Senhime Zesshô Symphogear ? It's one of winter's series that I want to watch it.

[Student no.0]

Black Rock SHOOTAH
Expectations: 79%
As much as I liked the OVA I'm gonna try not to get so overly excited about this and end up with big disappointments later on. Nice character design too.

Nisemonogatari
Expectations: 82%
Only seen the first too episodes of its prequel, but I love the visual style. Might get back into it later on.

Zero no Tsukaima F
Expectations:58%
I liked the first season but didn't enjoy the others enough. Will just watch for kicks though.

Another
Expectations: Unsure
Only interested due to all the talk about it.

For OVAs I'm going for Steins:Gate, Toradora, and Usagi Drop.

[MisaoFan]

Name of the title : Highschool DxD
Percentage of expectations : 77%
Why ? I love romantic harem comedies because I find it funny and enjoyable, but there's some titles I didn't like because of some reasons. This one can satisfy me.

Name of the title : Tantei Opera Milky Holmes 2
Percentage of expectations : 31%
Why ? I enjoyed the first season, but it annoys me a little. I hope that the second season will be as good as the first season.

Name of the title : Senhime Zesshô Symphogear
Percentage of expectations : 85%
Why ? I want to watch it because I really enjoyed Puella Magi Madoka Magica this winter season.

[wandering-dreamer]

Natsume Yuujinchou Shi-Must watch considering how much I loved the previous seasons.
Another-Sounds like it could be an interesting horror/mystery series, going to wait for more information on it though.
Other than that, not many new things that catch my eye. Fine by me though, I've got at least five fall shows continuing so I wouldn't have much time for new shows anyway.
