I am SO looking to this fall 2006 anime premieres. I took a look at an online list and have made my decision as to which anime series I plan to download and watch. Of course, downloading and watching them depends on whether or not they will be fan-subbed and distributed. So, listed below are the anime series [w/links] that I plan to pick up once released: Death Note http://www.ntv.co.jp/deathnote/ This series is about a bored, high-school senior, who finds a Death Note along with an associated Shinagami. In stating his neutral position, the Shinagami decides to accompany Light on his quest for creating the perfect world. But course…will Light be able to outsmart the famous detective, L? Hehe, I love it! Perfect Girl Evolution http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/yamanade/ The manga series is called The Wallflower, and I’ve read up to volume 8. This series is about a girl named Sunako, and her four “pretty-boy” roommates. Sunako considers herself as a “creature of the dark” and engages in hobbies like watching horror movies, collecting frightening anatomical models, all things gruesome. Her aunt wants to transform Sunako into a “Lady”, and thus hires the four “pretty-boys” to help her accomplish this task. And the battle begins: one Creature of Dark versus four Creatures of Light! Kin ‘iro no Chord http://www.gamecity.ne.jp/neoromance/tv/corda/ This series is about a girl who attends a school where you are either enrolled into “ordinary” classes or “music” classes. Somehow this girl encounters a music fairy that gives her a magical violin. And with this violin, she begins her path in fulfilling her musical dreams at the school. Yay, an anime about music *^_^* Of course, the numerous bishies are an added bonus, too. D. Gray-Man http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/dgrayman/ I’ve read somewhere that this series is similar to Bleach but is however much darker. This series is about a young boy who is gifted with weapons on his left arm and eye that allows him to identify and combat monsters that arise from unsettled, dead souls. The Millenium Earl who wants to destroy the world is currently using these monsters as weapon. This boy then joins an organization and uses his powers to stop the evil Earl. Hehe, doesn’t sound like Bleach meets Full Metal Alchemist? Bartender http://www.bartender-tv.com/top.html Man, finding information about this show was not easy. This series is about a young genius bartender who has won several championships. He gives it up and decides to work a simple hotel bar. And while he’s there, he helps bring a little light into the lives of the customers he serves. It doesn’t sound too thrilling, but I want to give it shot. A shot? Of what? Okay, that was bad ^^;; Hataraki Man http://www.hataraki-anime.com/ This is one of those ‘slice of life’ types of shows. This series follows a 28-year-old magazine editor, and her journeys through love, work, and everything else. It should be somewhat entertaining, I hope. *^_^* I gotta have my dose of drama! Six shows. I think I’ve got the spectrum covered. I have Death Note for suspense. I have Perfect Girl Evolution for comedy. I have D. Gray-Man for action. I have Hataraki Man and Bartender for drama. And lastly, I have Kin ‘iro no Chord for comedy/romance/bishiness. But then again, I don’t have fantasy, sci-fi, or even BL. Eh. Sounds good to me, for now.
