Yeah I'm really interested in seeing Shangri-La, I hope it's as good as the description makes it look.

Fullmetal Alchemist and 07-Ghost (the manga is a great, albeit short, due to its current length, read) are ones I'm definitely going to check out. Shangri-La has an interesting concept, as well as Eden of the East and Pandora Hearts. RAINBOW looks good as well. I almost confused the picture of Cross Game for H2O (since their artwork is the same), and I was confused as hell when I read the description of it and it was completely different lol...

WTH? I thought Darker Than Black 2 and Black Lagoon Season 3 were coming out this Spring.

Also, whatever happened to The Five Killers? Seems like I've been waiting years for it.

With the exception of Fullmetal Alchemist (and even then it depends on what they are trying to do), I see nothing of interest.

I heard Black lagoon was in production back in Oct, if that was the case, it probably won't be aired until fall or later.

This spring does seem a bit bland though. I still have hope for Saki. I think there is a possibility of it being a surprise hit. I read a blurb about it last year with the creators commenting on it and thinking, cool I'll have to watch that. But who knows...

If I payed for every H-game I want to play, I'll be bankupt by now

alot of people here and eleswhere keep on going about FMA, I personaly never read the manga, just the first TV series and I throuht it was good enough, and I don't see any reason to remake orginal series in line with the manga's story, other than to make more money from rabid fanboys of the series.

Noether · « **Reply #31 on:** February 02, 2009, 06:49:52 PM »

It hasn't been verified, but the wording of the announcement covered here implies that Spice and Wolf II might be coming in spring.

Nikkoru · « **Reply #32 on:** February 02, 2009, 07:07:49 PM »

I was kind of hoping for more continuations of anime I enjoyed. although I'm happy Hayate is back.

Sitio · « **Reply #33 on:** February 02, 2009, 07:19:35 PM »

Hanasekeru Seishounen might be worth checking out if it doesn't turn into one of those super cheezy and super sweet shojo I dread watching <_<

FMA too might be worth watching. I have a friend who's been complaining about the differences between the manga and anime.

The rest, well, I have to do some research.

Mainly because the last 15 or so episodes were so fucking stupid that they should have been remade based on the manga storyline and then shipped, for free, to everyone who actually watched the crap that had already been spewed.

Check again. The DVD will be released in April, while the spring season is March, April, and May. Look for Spice and Wolf 2 in June.

Therein lies your problem; if you read the manga, you would wholeheartedly understand why making a direct adaptation is such a big deal. I also thought the anime was very well done (besides that horrible excuse for a movie), but once I found out the manga and anime split directions about a third of the way in, I read it and was absolutely awestruck by how much more sense everything made (and how much better the action and plot was). I recommend you read it to understand, or watch the show blindly and be overcome with wondering what will happen next as the mystery gets darker after every episode.

Season 2 of Chi's Sweet Home has been confirmed for Spring, and Yoroshiku has announced they will be subbing the series.

It's quite sad that I'm more excited about that than anything else announced for this Spring.
