Time flies, with a blink of an eye it’s already July… Which means we’re half way through the year 2013.
As always, thanks to Neregate for providing us the anime season charts. You may click on the oversized-thumbnail and get the full-res chart at Neregate’s site.
What I’ll be watching:
Free!
The story revolves around Haruka Nanase, a boy who has always loved to be immersed in water, and to swim in it. Before graduating from elementary school, he participated in a swimming tournament along with his fellow swimming club members, Makoto Tachibana, Nagisa Hazuki, and Rin Matsuoka. After achieving victory, each of the boys went their separate ways. Time passed, and in the middle of their uneventful high school lives Rin appears and challenges Haruka to a match, showing Haruka his overwhelming power. Not wanting it to end like this, Haruka, gathers together Makoto and Nagisa once again and brings a new member named Rei Ryugazaki to create the Iwatobi High School Swimming Club in order to defeat Rin.
Kyoto Animation’s answer to fujoshi out there. Instead of another moe overload series, here’s a series full of young lads for your enjoyment if you like hot guys in action.
I’m watching this not because I’m into guys or whatsoever.. but as a KyoAni fanboy instead.. I do admit that KyoAni is no longer as glorious as what they were 3-5 years ago, but I still hope..
Danganronpa
A group of 15 elite high school students are gathered at a very special, high class high school. To graduate from this high school essentially means you’ll succeed in life, but graduating is very difficult. The school is presided over by a bear called Monokuma, and he explains to them that their graduation hinges around committing a murder. The only way to graduate is to kill one of your classmates and get away with it. If the other classmates discover the identity of the killer, the killer is the only one executed. However, if they fail to catch the killer, only the killer graduates and the others are annihilated. Which of the 15 will survive the bloodbath to come?
Okay… bloodbath.. muahahaha
Monogatari Series Season 2
Second season of monogatari series.
I’ve yet watch Bakemonogatari despite I had it in my HDD since long time ago…
What I might try:
Inu to Hasami wa Tsukaiyou
A nonsense comical mystery. Harumi Kazuhito is a high school boy who loves books and is a fan of novelist Natsuno Kirihime. One day, he finds Kirihime writing at a cafe, about to be shot by a robber. He protects her from the attack but is killed instead. Through the supernatural power of a book-worm, he is reincarnated as a dachshund dog. Kazuhito (as a dog) writhes in a painful bookless life, when a sadistic woman carrying a pair of scissors offers him help. She is Kirihime herself.
Sadist female protagonist =D
Stella Jogakuin Koutou-ka C3-bu
Yura Yamato has just arrived at the high school division of Stella Women’s Academy, when Sonora Kashima invites her to join a club called “C³”. Sonora is the third-year student who became the new head of this club for military survival games. The other members include two second-year students (part-Japanese Karila Hatsuse and G36K-wielding Honoka Mutsu) and two other new students (Rento Kirishima whose family runs a Japanese sweets shop and the really short Yachiyo Hinata).
Guns, Girls, Guns, Girls, Guns, Girls, Guns and Girls!!!
Genshiken Nidaime
New series of Genshiken where it stands for “Gendai Shikaku Bunka Kenkyuu Kai” (Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture).
I have to catch up with the first two seasons of Genshiken first.. but the series does looks rather interesting.
That’s it for my watchlist for this season, what’s yours?
