Durarara rocks pretty hard. That and Cobra are about the only thing worth bothering with from this season.

Edit: Actually, Baka to Test is pretty good too. I can't believe lyte edge trashed it after the first episode. Smh, lyte edge!

bork · « **Reply #1921 on:** January 22, 2010, 07:51:17 PM »

All right, I will check out Baka To Test #2 and see what I think. If it sucks, you will be subjected to a 72-hour torture session with nothing but Ladies Vs. Butlers playing on an endless loop.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #1922 on:** January 22, 2010, 07:52:25 PM »

Just watched episode two of Durarara, pretty interesting. Kinda reminds me of a Murakami novel if it were written by otaku.

The new Cobra TV show is ridiculous. I love it.

Yeah, mainly those two. Baka to Test is a pretty good comedy that's bizarre enough and crazy enough to by worth your time if you go in with the right mindset, Sora No Woto has a great setting and some good music but its held back by standard slice-of-life stories and characters, and...uh...there's the third season of Hidamari Sketch which is basically more of the what the first two seasons had.

There's a new show from the guy [girl?] who wrote Umineko and Higurashi, but the first episode didn't really do much for me. Might be worth sticking with though.

So, yeah, mainly Cobra and Durarararararararararararara.

Yeah, I watched all of Higurashi S1 then played 1 of the novels through and was super into it.
And then I never watched S2 or read the explanation novel and I have no idea what actually happened but for whatever reason I don't seem to care.
Their stories are very entertaining regardless of the answers. That is my only explanation.

Finally watched the first episode of Katanagatari and it was pretty good. It's a bit more shounen than I would like for it to be [for example: main guy is super-powerful but naive, he is recruited for a quest by a woman who is not super-powerful but is knowledgeable about the world, and they go on a quest to find these special swords with each episode being about them getting another one], but I can overlook that since it's only 12 episodes and won't require a long investment. Art style and animation were both really good.

The listing for the March issue of Fujimi Shobo's Monthly Dragon Age magazine on the Seven Net Shopping website states that an anime adaptation of Daisuke Satō and Shoji Sato's Highschool of the Dead manga has been green-lit. The listing also says that the manga will resume in the same issue after a break of more than a year, and it will also adorn the cover. The March issue will ship on February 9.

The story follows a group of students and a school nurse who try to survive a worldwide plague that has turned people into the living dead.
