Kyoto Animation seems to go back and forth on just how forthcoming on details about their next animation series. We know of one coming in March (OVA) and April (series): Nichijou. And we know the K-On movie will be out in December with one more episode of the second season to come out this March on the last DVD for that series. We also know the manga writer will be continuing K-On starting in the spring (we don't have details yet about what it will be about yet I guess.)
So we have no real idea what Kyoto Animation will do after Nichijou ends and before the K-On movie...much less 2012. We know Haruhi has more material to animate and they left a teasing thread for more in the movie last year. Full Metal Panic's novels are complete now if I understand correctly, meaning they can finally pick that series back up should they decide to do so. It is unclear if Kyoto and Key will work together again post-CLANNAD with others having worked on Angel Beats. No clue if they have any need or desire to return to Lucky Star. With K-On's source material continuing, they could animate that when it gets enough stories to host a 13 - 26 episode series again. That seems to be a profitable idea since they can make money on not only the DVD sales, but also music sales. So they could go in almost any direction come 2012.
